Sorry for poor format but did the spreadsheet on my phone.

[Josedinho]

Probably not the right thread to put this in but does anybody know who the top 6 are in the championship handicap market (may depend on differing handicaps so rough guesses are fine)

Saints 94
Reading 87
Watford 86
Palace 84 (-3)
Derby 84 (-6)
Blackpool 81

Others 77 or worse.

That is with totesport. I have Derby 4 places fwiw. Gona be close.

[Horneris]

Actually Barnsley are on 79. But wouldn't consider them a threat.

[Josedinho]

Cheers. Had a Newcastle Brighton double - assumed it was a goner but wondered who had done well.
Slightly surprised to see Palace there

18 teams in

If we don't get two more overnight I propose 1 share/team 19 goes to the Reece fund and the final share/team 20 goes as a lucky dip..if that team wins we have a spin up of the winning prize on something like the CL final, with winnings shared equally

If there are no objections to that I will send out bank details in the morning and then publish the handicap and get the draw done by a third party

With Newcastle in second place I propose we start considering the spin up options.

Personally I would like to see a big(ish) price but am a terrible punter so happy to turn to the "elders" for ideas.

Prob would prefer to avoid correct score/first goal scorer in Champions League but am happy to go with the flow.

[TightEnd]

I was intending to ask everyone who participated, once the season concludes, for their suggested bet for the (currently) £115 with a deadline

then inviting all with a share to vote, the one with the most votes get the bet.

Options obviously include the CL final, the Euros, the Play offs.

i jumped the gun obv!

[Horneris]

Why are Swansea not on 91 points?

Am I missing something?

[TightEnd]

Why are Swansea not on 91 points?

that's correct


Swansea on 47+44=91, Chris' table is wrong


As it stands Newcastle/lucky dip is leading with two games to go


So we have a potential £225 spin up on the cards


Some thought as to how to use that, welcomed in the next fortnight please

[Horneris]

Put it on Portugal to win the euros
