football Premier Pundits

Not an original game but nice and simple. All you have to do is predict the final placings of all 20 Premier League teams. The goal is to score no points at all. Each team you predict correctly scores 0 points. A team predicted one place out (e.g. you put Southampton for 2nd and they finish 1st) scores one point. Two places awry scores 2 points etc.

And that's it! I'll publish a table to show how people are getting on each issue.

To help you, here are William Hill's approximate odds for the Premiership (July 2000):

Man Utd 8-11, Arsenal 4-1, Liverpool 5-1, Chelsea 7-1, Leeds United 10-1, Newcastle 40-1, Aston Villa 50-1, Tottenham Hotspur 66-1, Everton 100-1, West Ham 150-1, Sunderland 150-1, Middlesboro 200-1, Man City 300-1, Leicester City 300-1, Southampton 400-1, Derby County 400-1, Coventry City 400-1, Charlton Athletic 750-1, Ipswich Town 1000-1, Bradford City 1500-1.
