Thanks for your hard work @Zeta, and @axman2526 for starting the threads.

Finished 3rd which I think is a personal high for myself. Congratulations on @erskblue for attaining the most points.

 

[axman2526]

Welcome guys, happy to help.

I finished higher than Man United did, so I will take that lol. Congrats @erskblueon your second title, can you make history again as the first ever back to back champion? (Assuming @Zetadecides to do this all again next season).

 

[erskblue]

Oh right !

I had genuinely no idea I was anywhere near winning it!! 

Thanks to zeta and axman for their work and patience in producing this thread.

Thanks to Cole Palmer for scoring the first goal so often this season !

2020/2021 @erskblue 70

Congratulations @erskblue ! Two titles now, there is something to aim for in life after all. And a big thank you to @Zeta and all who helped to keep this competition going.

Despite Ersk's two titles, I do feel a bit Champion of the Champions with my highest winning score 

 

[Munkunku]

@Zeta if you can be arsed can you see if I ever predicted a win? My plan was to go 100% loss this season but I think I got giddy at one point and predicted a draw?

Either way if (big) this happens next season I’ll have to rethink my strategy.

 

[strider6004]

My best ever season score though congratulations to @erskblue for getting more right.

As others have said an appreciative nod to  @Zeta and @axman2526 for organising. 

 

[Zeta]

You definitely got at least one, cos this was a 10 pointer.

 

[Valerie]

Breaking news: I claimed 2,208th spot in the club's prediction game. Out of 212,915 that's not bad.

 

[Mod]

Don’t fall for it @Zeta! @Munkunku is just giving excuses because he was lower in the table!

Well done @erskblue I still remember you nicking the 20/21 title!

….and of course @Zeta and @axman2526 for keeping it running despite people doing sanction/Clearlake circus rage quits!

 

[axman2526]

You definitely got at least one, cos this was a 10 pointer.

He means did he predict Chelsea to win a game not get a win by predicting us losing.

He is confusing we all know.

@Zeta if you can be arsed can you see if I ever predicted a win? My plan was to go 100% loss this season but I think I got giddy at one point and predicted a draw?

There are 38 match threads and you usually are one of the first predictors so, if you really want to know, be "arsed" yourself and go look lmao.

Incidentally I am sure you predicted a draw at least once so your 100% loss prediction did not happen.

Um, excuse me, but what is this disrespect? I think you will find that I was the first winner back in 2019-20. I won't accept my achievements being diminished like this!

@Mod I call for a ban! This is outrageous!

 

[Gol15]

Congratulations @erskblue, it has been a pleasure all this time, both the prediction master and the history master, cheers.

Oh yeah, sorry it wasn't in my spreadsheet.

Was I talking to you f**k face? I know you like to try and pretend to be Zeta but you’ll always just be a poor imitation of the man.

Thanks for organising! A solid 6th place for me on my debut season.
