The Last-8 Tournament...


Recommended Posts

Dear Friends,

I guess we just come up with these competitions and name them depending on how many matches are left in the EPL before we realize we haven't started the competition yet. If you remember it used to be called the Last-11 (which had a nice ring about it). Anyway, Last-8 is what it will need to be this season!

For those of you who don't know what the competition is or how to join, it is very simply. Chelsea currently have 8 EPL games left in the season. You have to predict, BEFORE Chelsea's next EPL game against Watford, ALL EIGHT RESULTS. NOTE to BPL predictors, all we need is the final score (no starters, subs, scorers, etc...).

If you get the correct score, you get 3 points (~ a win). If you get the correct result, but the wrong score, you get 1 point (~ a draw). If you get both the score and result wrong, you get 0 points (~ a loss). For each win, you get double the goal difference for the match (e.g. 4 points if it ended 3-1, or 4-2, or 5-3, etc...). For each draw, you get the goal difference for the match (e.g. 2 points if it ended 3-1). For the loss, you get subtracted 1 from your goal difference.

I haven't time at the moment to post the 8 remaining matches. Kudos to anyone who does this for us. If not, I will later in the day. REMEMBER, ALL EIGHT results must be in BEFORE the day of the Watford game (midnight London time the day before)!

Cheers,

Butch

We will need to be changing your name to Jimmy Hill!!

Chippy

just to let you know I edited your post so as not to have Butch's e-mail address as a linkable line for spammers.

Butch has included his e-mail address a few posts above - he has just written it out to prevent spammers getting it

dsettach-at-gmail.com

Cheers

Thank you Chippy.

And could you tell me why Butch wrote dsettach-at-gmail.com instead of more usual and simple icon_rolleyes.gif

I think Loz has covered it mate, Cheers Loz and sorry Butch.

I get an error when trying to send to that e-mail address (and I have added the @), so I used a different e-mail address which I have in my address list for Butch.

Butch, can you let me know if you haven't received my last 8 prediction please.

Cheers, TT

Feel free to send them to me via Private Messaging.

That way you can be sure they have been submitted (just in case Butch doesn't log in again between now and the deadline) as I can pass them onto Butch.

Butch, I tried to send the e-mail to the dsettach-at-gmail.com address about 6 times and it failed, but on the seventh attempt it appears to have gone. Therefore, hopefully you should have received my predictions to both of your e-mail addresses.

Cheers, Terry

I hope you realise that all 7 entries are different, to maximise my chances of winning. 259.gif
