all right, i know wev missed Gameweek 1 but sure what harm would it be to set up a last man standing competition. 1) Each week you must pick 1 team to win. 2) You may only pick each team once in a series (so if you pick Arsenal in week two then you cannot pick them again until all 20 teams have been picked). 3) If your…

I guess there could be a tie breaker question aswell, like how many goals will be scored that weekend? or else pick the score in the match your team is playing in..

we could do a predictions for each match
one point for correct result (w l d)
bonus point for correct margin

So you would do it like this

Everton v Liverpool (L+2) so liverpool win by two goals
Wolves v Villa (D) a draw

Not sure why we need a play off though, presumably we keep going until no one left

also as its just two left, what about ye pm your entry to an unbiased third party and both are published simultaneously, thus removing any potential advantage of going second. Happy to oblige if ye want

I dont mind now either way. Happy to go with Rigors suggestion. Something like 3 points for correct score, 1 point for correct result zero points for incorrect result? Or is that just totally over complicating things
