Thanks to @axman2526 for making a lot of the threads, because I lost the will to live around January with this team.

First, the minor awards:

Best Overall Prediction - @Mod (15 points on Week 1). And it only went downhill from there.

Most Consistent Predictors - @erskblue @Ukraine Bolt @Valerie @axman2526 38/38 predictions. They have no life.

Worst Predictor (Average) - (Based on average points per week. Minimum 10 predictions.) - @The Don Antonio With an average score of 0.7 points per week.

Best Predictor (Average) - (Based on average points per week. Minimum 10 predictions.) - @Simplymo With an average score of 2.3 points per week.

Most Completely Wrong - (The most 0 scores) - @Ukraine Bolt with 28 blanks (66% of his predictions).

And finally, the one you've all been waiting for..........

The biggest Predicthead of 2024/2025 is....

@erskblue with 68 points.

This is erskblue's 3rd victory in 5 years in the prediction league, and he has defended his trophy from last year. This is beginning to become a bit of a farmer's league now. Clearly he is buying up all the best predictions with dirty oil money and no-one else can compete.

Final Table:

erskblue	68
Salato	62
Jezz	59
Simplymo	59
Munkunku	58
carrickblue	57

Likewise, well done to defending champion @erskblue - impressive consistency to get another win! And big thanks to @Zeta and @axman2526 for the hard slog of running the competition and giving us the final result!

Here’s hoping next season we are all able to make a lot more Chelsea win predictions - fingers crossed!

Ahha I finally got a prediction right! Congratulations @erskblue , now you can put a third star on your shirt :)

Maybe, if you are lucky and we aren't sh*t/boring to watch @Zeta may bring this back again one day.

Was happy to help again Zeta. Was him doing all the heavy lifting here guys and gals I just copied, pasted and made a couple of edits for each match day post.

Not sure where I missed a prediction not to have 38 out of 38 though. Darn...

Thanks for your hard work, Zeta.

I'm turning into Arsenal. Close, but always just falling short behind @erskblue.

Don't want to be a d**khead.... but, I think that may be slightly wrong there Zeets! Mo hasn't logged in since briefly in March, maybe that was meant to be @axman2526

Oh right !

Cheers all you lot!🍺

Most Completely Wrong - (The most 0 scores) - @erskblue with 25 blanks (66% of his predictions).

Thanks for this ‘Most Completely Wrong Award!’ 😀 My former Maths teachers would not be surprised!😀

Thanks to Zeta and axman for all their Hard Work! 🍺🍺

Blue is the Colour!

f**king hell, I didn't even make top 10 😡 Thank f**k I still hold the highest points record.

@erskblue Congratulations, my friend! I'm taking comfort from the fall from grace of both Manchester clubs: you may win many times, but eventually you will join the strugglers 😉

Many thanks to @Zeta for organising the most important competition of the season, and to @axman2526 for jumping in when even Zeta couldn't take it anymore.

KTBFFH!

Val:Cheers!😀

Join the strugglers?

I ‘won’ ! 😀

You won TWO bloody categories! Hoarder!

My mistake was actually predicting us to win a joblot of games since Christmas! Everyone predicting draws and loss, and me saying we were going to win by 2 goals with Jackson scoring!

Hmm. I think some of Salato's points somehow got mixed up with simplymo. I'm pretty sure I did it right, but this spreadsheet is a bit sh*t and doesn't always sort every column properly when you sort by something.

It's pretty close at the top, so I'll go through Salato's points again and double check them,

Yes

Yup my spreadhseet is f**ked and points are all i the wrong places now.

I might have to do the whole thing again

Wait, no i see the problem. It's just sorting on number of predictions which breaks it. I think the rest is correct.

So players who predicted 38/38 times were: erskblue, Ukraine Bolt, Valerie, axman

VAR says on pitch decision stands.

Ok, so the points are correct, buyt I think everything else is wrong cos it's not sorting correctly. Let me manually do this:

Worst average points per week: 0.7 was actualkly @The Don Antonio

Best average points per week was @Simplymo

Most zero's was @Ukraine Bolt with 28

Don't know if that can be edited into the original post

I'll edit it as it means I won't have the worst average points! 👀

I think the first post is fixed now!

Thanks to @Zeta and @axman2526 for another season of the predictions!

Shall we all agree to put it on the back burner now for next season and give you guys a break?

I'm fairly sure i've not done it every week haha

I thought I had missed one week, but that may have been on the club's predictor 🤔

Anyway, @Zeta 's verdict that some people have no life is completely accurate in my case 😁

I didn't even make the Conference League, poor.

Thanks to all for the effort put into this, especially in such a naff season.

Considering I just completely forgot about this for the last 8 games, missed a few before that and still finished 5th 10 points off the winner shows just how much this league has declined. You should all be ashamed of yourselves tbh.

Next season just award it to @erskblue at the beginning of the season & be done with it.
