LMS – New Season, New Game!

This will be the eighth season I have been running this competition. The past 7 seasons have seen 34 games played with a total of £11,765 paid out in prize money. For those that haven’t played before you pay £5 entry fee and have to pick a team that you think will win their game in a given round of games – if they win, you progress to the next round (lose or draw and you are out!). You can’t pick the same team more than once – the last man standing takes the prize pot. A full set of rules can be viewed here, previous games and winners can be viewed here. Deadline for entering the opening game is Friday 11th August at 7pm.
Send your entry fee across and drop me an email with your pick for Round 1 before the deadline (details at the foot of this post). Any queries, drop me a message. The first four rounds of fixtures are below – you can plan ahead a bit more by checking the Premier League fixtures page.
