"The Football Accumulator Thread"

Right, i know some of you guys are not keen football fans so probably not a great thread for you - sorry.

However, for the few of us that enjoy football, i thought this could proove to be fun!

I love doing football Accumulators and very often, well actually never, have i won a bet of one. So to try help me spending all my hard earned cash i thought we could play a game. These are the rules (and even people who know nothing about football can play!)

Each week i will post the fixtures for the premier league on here.
From them you choose 4 games and say how it will go.
Getting 3 out of the 4 correct grants you a point.
Getting all 4 will get you 3 points.

Simple, right! I will of course keep a list on here and update the scored of the people playing.
So let me know if your interested in playing along. Fun game to keep me occupied and may actually help me finally win a bet!

Just put a sneaky £1 accumulator bet on the opposite of my predictions below. A mere £7,592 potential winnings. Worth a try, right? ...guys?

For the weekend:

Arsenal WIN
Aston Villa WIN
Everton WIN
Portsmouth DRAW


Man Utd 0 - 1 Liverpool

Stevie G

:-)

Arsenal v West Ham
Aston Villa v Wolverhampton
Everton v Bolton
Portsmouth v Hull
Stoke v Tottenham
Sunderland v Birmingham
Wigan v Burnley
Blackburn v Chelsea
Fulham v Man City
Man Utd v Liverpool

Arsenal 2 - 0 West Ham
Arshavin

I wish I shared the general confidence that Man U are going to beat Liverpool. The only thing I'm sure of is that Vidic will get a red card again. He doesn't like playing against Torres & Gerrard all that much.

Potentially big weekend for Arsenal. The first weekend in April when Man U play Chelsea is pretty big too. Hmmm, Arsenal to win the league? I'll stick with my original Chelsea prediction from the start of the season though I think.

I dont like it either.

This makes me upset.

Arsenal, Villa, Man City, Chelsea

3-0 Arsenal (Fabregas)

Stoke v Tottenham
Blackburn v Chelsea
Fulham v Man City
Man Utd v Liverpool

Man Utd 2-0 Liverpool
Berbatov

If Butch fails to get any points this week and you got the full 7, it would be very close!!

Yet another one of my predictions comes true. Crikey.
