SA Footy

Someone suggested we introduce a slaughter comp for this season, so here it is.

Pick a game each week and precict the result, Home Win, Draw or Away Win. Being as there are more sides in the EPL than the SANFL, you can't pick the same team more than once in 5 picks. that should keep it a bit more interesting and stop everyone picking Chelsea one week and Man U next week and Chelsea again on the 3rd week.
Fail to pick the correct result and you are out of the comp until we have a winner.

I'll set up a spreadsheet to log everyone's picks that will keep an eye on who picked which teams.

There will be some footy and SAFooty goodies on offer to each winner. I'll keep a list of winners through out the season and send all the goodies out at the end.

I've edited Wedgies sticky at the top of the "soccer" board so you can find the comps

i like this concept. good work claret ill def be in

Excuse my ignorance JTC...

Please correct me if I'm wrong;

Pretty much LEH

You pick a team each week and predict their result. So if you picked Fulham to draw and they did then you survive another week, but you can't pick Fulham again for another 5 weeks.

OK, Week 1... Gunna take the 'soft option' & pick
Man U to WIN - Geordies can't win, can they?

IMO, that's a danger game due to their respective history. ManU are always slow starters, plus they have lots of injury and fitness concerns.

Chelsea to beat WBA (sorry Di mateo, still love ya but).

Chelsea to beat WBA for me. I can imagine the odds on this one.

If we pick a draw does that mean we cant pick both the teams for 5 weeks?

ill go chelsea to win aswell

Chelsea to defeat West Brom.

Chelsea to defeat West Brom also...

Because everyone is on Chelsea im gona try and save that trump card for the next 4 weeks

im gona go Aston Villa to win

Not keen on Chelsea ever winning so will go for a win to Sunderland. They gave Spurs a touch up first up a few seasons ago.
