Ok, the FPC Predictor closing date for entries will be Thursday August 1st at 9pm

We currently have 29 entries.

If anyone else is interested let me know by Thursday night. This gives me time to sort out the fixtures with the computer. Ideally, I'd like 32.

Matches to be predicted will include, Premier, Championship, league 1, League 2, conference, SPL and internationals occassionally as per last season.

The Knockout Cup competition will start in January.

Full rules to be outlined as soon as I have put the little uns to bed tonight.

Regards Sharrowblade

You're more than welcome as long as you aren't a kitchen salesman.

I need to know which team you support mate?

Just a heads up.

We've now reached 32 entrants for the FPC Predictor Competition and that's it.

Sorry, anymore, and it would have become a logistical nightmare with the Fixture computer.

So, we are now closed to entries. 32 it is.

The Cup will start in January and is open to everyone. 64 max. All league entrants are automatically entered.

The two divisions (Conferences) have now been sorted as has the head to head fixtures. Full rules, format, opening fixtures and dates to be posted later tonight.

Sorry no League Cup, JPT, Texaco, Watney or anything else.
Just League, Cup and playoffs.

As for you Everton boys, Toffeedan and Barrett you are both facing Blades in the opening round.

I'm sorry I can't take anymore entrants, as I said it would have been too much.

When January comes, it will be the cup. We had 47 entrants last time. This year's max will be 64.

Regards Sharrowblade

Will the top four qualify for the Champions League next season with the next three teams in the Europa League (with managers moaning about to many games and the need for squad rotation)!!!!

Funnily enough, I may well incorporate this into the competition with the top 4 from each conference predicting the Champions League games, as an off shoot competition. But that will have to be next season, not this one.

Oh, and then there is the World Cup Laughing
