The 2nd game of the season is now down to the last 4 players – which ends any chance of a rollover jackpot. The £490 pot has to be won now and that means I can now start game 3! Game 2 seems to have gone on forever – starting on 22nd October, but taking a break for the World Cup.
For those that haven’t played before – you need to pick a team that you think will win their game that weekend – they win and you go through to the next round: draw or lose and you are out. Rinse and repeat for subsequent rounds until the last person is standing and takes the prize pot – you can’t pick the same team twice. Full rules can be viewed here, previous games can be viewed in the Hall of Fame. Current game can be viewed here to give you an idea how it works. Feel free to share with anyone you think might be interested – more entries = a bigger prize pot!
Entry remains £5 and you must send me an email (martin.grierson@gmail.com) by 7pm on Friday 3rd February with your selection for Round 1. First four sets of fixtures below, to let you plan ahead (you only need to let me know Round 1 to start with though!). Make a note that Round 4 will include 2 postponed games due to the Carabao Cup final. Payment details have not changed – payments to Martin Grierson @ Sort Code:126050 Account Number:03697698 or alternatively, you can pay by Paypal to martin.grierson@gmail.com (use friends and family option to avoid fee).
