Game 2 of this season is now concluded – congratulations to Peter Carter, who has just won £550, courtesy of Tottenham’s win over Everton (and Villa’s misfortune of drawing with Sheffield United!)!! That’s £1135 already paid out in prize money this season.
It’s now time to look ahead and start Game 3! I will be kicking this new game off this coming weekend, 30th December. Hopefully not too many people will miss this invite – not many email addresses appear to be work ones.
Most of you should know the rules by now – but 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 this new game is Friday 29th December 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 mail). Any queries, drop me a message. First 4 rounds of fixtures are below – you can plan ahead a bit more by checking the Premier League fixtures page. Feel free to share with anyone you think might be interested – more entries = a bigger pot!
