"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!

This is true. Only Lost and football ascend the hatred between the two departments and allow us to converse.

Our working relationship is non-existent these days thanks to your Accumulator. I only speak to him via this thread.

lol, i like how you two have a kind of personal competition going on this! Keeps it alive and things fun.

Think overall this thread has been a success! Apart from a few people who have not kept up with the game..... : D

Precisely.

Nothing wrong with making changes before K.O. is there? It's the same as if someone entered their predictions for the first time but had the sense to wait for the starting line-ups.

Plus I changed the first goalscorer pred from Rooney to Berba, so I didn't gain anything.

You should be thankful I chose the 2-1 scoreline originally, and that I allowed you to copy that prediction ;)

Just noticed this.

Cheater.

Believe it or not, I was actually torn between Carew and Milner for first scorer... Oh well, at least McLong didn't score more than me.

: D

Thats a monday morning for you, and reason as to why i had a second column on my page i missed.....

ill update it

EDIT:

Should be all ok now, i was adding 1 point instead of 3 for correct score, and Chris scored no points, think i missed the bold on some of his and gave him a point.

If anyone can see an error then please let me know, i try be as accurate as possible, but im at work so mistakes happen!

Thought it was 3 points for choosing the correct score? Sure a few people did :D

Unless the score was actually 3-1 and I've just missed the plot completely.
