    Eh €20 to enter!
    The one in PP is freeand you could win €100,00 (well you won't coz it's MINE!).
    Also you could win the shop prize whatever that is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,632 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    For the new round starting tomorrow how many matches do you need to pick?is it for the rest of the season

    New comp so you need to pick a team each week until you either win it or pick a team that loses.

    I got knocked out with wigan today was in last 29

    Still crying lol

    Ah well won shop prize 350 and will have to win the 100k instead


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    started this this weekend, got thrown the entry form by a mate who works in paddypower....picked the pool this weekend cause i wanted to get them out of the way, sickens me to be backing them and if they gonna let me down i would have rathered it be the first week :)

    should be a laugh i suppose, i assume ill win with little problem :P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 55 ✭✭luckyjimbobs


    Very hard to pick a team this week had wigan and they battered stoke but couldnt score. Whoever wins the 50k deserves it! I lasted 11 weeks and still didnt win overall. Would have paid for my divorce! If you are my ex and read this i dont have 50k so tough lol


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 234 ✭✭ferdyfish


    i had wigan also. ya lastuing 11 weeks was good if you think of the accumulator 11 weeks winnings prob turned 10er into 8000 win 11 striaght wins doubling and doubling some weeks youd have gotten 2to1 like so maybe more tha 10k


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 561 ✭✭✭Shurwhynot


    Blackburn at home to Hull screwed me in the 2nd round of the 1st LMS paddy power competition.

    Went for Liverpool last weekend, i'm thinking United this weekend. I just wana play it safe for the first few weeks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,120 ✭✭✭shrapnel222

    i think this weekend is definelty the time to try get a win with a weaker team;) as the top four all have tricky fixtures!!! for me im thinking of going for m,boro against bolton but im not sure:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,100 ✭✭✭Browney7


    not lookin forward to this weekends one at all tbh

    Spurs at home to Blackburn doesn't look too bad the way blackburn are going.

    Then again look at the Spurs goalie:eek:

    hes due a good game:p harry redknapp basicly said the other day that he has to stick with him cause hes got no one else??? doesnt say much for the two sub keepers:confused: surely they cant be worse???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,632 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    The 3 guys left in the first one ALL got knocked out at the weekened so the 50k was shared :eek: between the 3 of them, 17k each not bad.
    One had Blackburn (gone Saturday), one had Hull and the last guy had Man City who played each other!
    Bet the bloke who had Blackburn didn't get much sleep on Saturday night ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 507 ✭✭✭Tedious Bore


    just wondering will there be more chances to enter this?

    am i too late?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 129 ✭✭theboytaylor


    @Tedious Bore: Yeah, I'd say it's too late to enter this time.

    This weekend (Well so far with the saturday results) has to have decimated the
    amount of people left in.

    Went for Sunderland myself, anyone else manage to avoid the temptation of going for the big clubs this weekend (and get a result)?

    ACtually, is there anywhere that PP post the amount of people left or is it only available in the shop?

    Will be total carnage after today and if other results end up draws could be a very short competition lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,014 ✭✭✭dotsflan


    was going to go with chelsea but then changed my mind and went with pompey so either way i was f**ked:p looking at the chart in the shop some people dont know the rules and neither do the staff!!! people had liverpool and united in this week after having them in already!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 55 ✭✭luckyjimbobs


    I got to last 29 in game 1 and last 13650 in game 2

    OOPS


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34 collei


    went for tottenham this weekend:):):) i nearly did chelsea but changed my mind at the last minute:)!anyone here still left in?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,632 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987

    AFAIK it's a shop only thing.
    There was over 13k left on Saturday morning and after the w/e results,
    I'd say that will be max 3k on Monday.
    Get ready for another one shortly me thinks.

    If anybody still left in, you one of the very lucky ones.
    Chelsea & Liverpool drawing I'd say knocked at least 60% of the people, Bolton away, Stoke Home and W Ham away wins, very very few would have had these teams.
    Portsmouth & Hull, AV & MU drawing would have had a small number but not many.
    Man City beating Arsenal again wouldn't have been many there.
    Wigan v Everton tonight unlikely to have many people involved as a tough call with other "easier" matches to call.
    Tottenham Home to Blackburn would have had a few all right and most of the players left will be on that selection.
    Based on above I'd guess that at least 80-90% of the players are gone :eek:

    Wouldn't it be funny if 1 person was left :rolleyes:

    Next week probable "Bankers" are A Villa Home to Fulham, Chelsea Home to Arsenal, Liverpool Home to W Ham but after these 3, there's not another "easy" call available.
    Boro v Newcastle,
    Stoke v Hull
    Sunderland v Bolton
    Wigan v W Brom
    M City v M Utd
    Portsmouth v Blackburn
    Spurs v Everton.

    Good luck to anybody still in there.

    I fancy Bolton away to Sunderland this weekend. I had Stoke against WBA, they left it late enough t score. I might even go with Villa... I'll see what team has the best form. So far iv used Liverpool, Man U and Stoke.

    There was over a hundred left in my shop before the weekend n now theres only 15.. I have a big chance of winning the shop money anyway. Anyone know how many are left overall??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,014 ✭✭✭dotsflan


    4 left in my shop out of 150!!!! talk about a good weekend for the bookies:P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 75 ✭✭Kevin11


    Am still there. Had spurs at weekend.
    Man U Liverpool and Spurs now used up.
    Next week will be a pin in the paper I fear.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 129 ✭✭lottodrink


    No1 knw how many is left?? Overall like

    Im goin with Spurs, Villa, Bolton or Hull this weekend. I dont think Chelsea will beat Arsenal even with Arsenals rubbish form. Man City are a dodgy team for United as well so Id stay away from that.

    West Brom have lost their last 4 away games so Wigan might be a good bet depending on how they get on tonight against Everton... Its another bogey weekend i think:P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 706 ✭✭✭whatsupdoc?


    Asked at lunchtime approx 1700 :eek: left in.
    Girl didn't know if that included tonight's match but couldn't see too many in for that one.
    At least it won't be that long before there's another one up & running (hopefully).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,100 ✭✭✭Browney7


    Aston Villa this week i think. Already picked Man united, Liverpool and Spurs, its getting hard now:eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 129 ✭✭lottodrink


    Yeah ur probably right.. But I'm sure a few ppl woudla went with Everton... If Zaki was back I woulda went with Wigan...

    Id love to win even my shops one... a few hundred would come in handy for Christmas:) Its up to €400 this weekend


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 422 ✭✭PADDYPOKER


    I thought it was €50 a week?

    20 in mine... Went with Wigan as well... Their the only bankers but ya never know the way its been going lately!! Every team iv done so far have been playing West Brom so I might as well keep it going:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 75 ✭✭Kevin11


    Still undecided. Might go against the grain totally and go for blackburn away V pompey.
    Not putting in Wigan. They cost me numerous bets and are without Zaki again.

    I think Portsmouth will have gotten a big confidence boost after the 2-2 draw against AC last night so I wouldnt touch Blackburn... Arsenal are gonna beat Chelsea on Sunday!! Wigan are a safe bet.. they beat Everton on monday at home and West Brom are awful in all fairness. Is Heskey out as well??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 75 ✭✭Kevin11


    Blackburn won there last season and in the Carling cup and have won 3 out of the 5 premiership games between the 2 at Fratton.
    Wigan have only 4 home goals in 8 games at home this year.
    The lack of firepower would put me off them.
    Heskey should be ok to start


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,416 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Into week nine in work and running out of options. Only two of us left and this is the first week we've differed in opinions, our place just rolls the prize over rather than splitting the pot so we were only ever going to end up with zip if we carried that on. Anywho, Villa for me and sorry guys but hoping Wigan don't do it as that's the competition :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 706 ✭✭✭whatsupdoc?


    You should be safe enough with Villa :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 775 ✭✭✭Woodgate


    You should be safe enough with Villa :confused:
    Villa do draw a lot of games and fulham don't concede many this season, I think it's not a definate for Villa.

    Well they knocked me out in week 1 of Paddy Power's competition so second chance time. I fancy no goals in the Wigan game to be honest but agree with you on Villa

    I went for villa in end as did half the shop.
    Not too confident about them though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34 collei


    go wigan:D:D:D:D:D:Dif west ham can somehow pull off some kind of result against liverpool il be the last one left in my shop,anyone think they could do it???


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10 Gary-22


    Ok so we are now moving into week 5,

    is there many still standing? i think maybe less than a 1000 now with aston villa and liverpool both drawing.

    I picked Wigan this week and was quite lucky to go through, is there many people on here still left in and if so im curious to see what teams people have already used?
    my selections have been Liverpool, Chelsea, Tottenham,Wigan.
    Im also unsure about the prize, if the competition says 500,000 then why is it only 100,000 is the 500,000 split between different parts of the country or something?

    Gary

    well done its a great win to be top of your shop considering how many people entered this time round! West ham did you a favour.
    only 3 left now im the shop im in and there was a hell of a lot of people.

    As far as I know the top prize is 100k and then all the shop prizes then add up to another 400k to make 500k.

    I'd say there's less then 500 left.
    Only 3 left in Rathfarnham :eek:
