Last year I tried to run a prediction competition similar to the one The Mag do each year. Only 5 of you entered but it's entertaining to see the results. ( http://www.btinternet.com/~macbeth9/answer.htm

I'm happy to run it again, with you all sending your predictions in via here, or through the page I set up last year.

Anyone interested ?

What's the premise Mac? What are we predicting - League positions?

Check out the link Clarky. I think you'll find it's all there.

last years results table shows the categories, basically it's predicting 23 things and getting points for it.

No one guessed either the young or full PFA player of the year. One person managed to guess 3 of our starting XI for the last game of the season, 3 out of 5 predicted Chelsea winning the cup.

I'll try and find the original form I set up, although I've moved PC so that may ne fun.

I don't remember it, but its quite a hoot - esp the last question. No Rob Lee's in anyone'e teams, needless to say. And loads picked Griffin and Ketsbaia - about the only games they played>

Seedorf? Ah, rumours from one year ago... sounds a bit silly now - and I was one spreading them.

I'd be up for the prediction competition Macbeth.

Hmmm, you seem to have got in first! I've been writing a similar one for the Gallowgate, which should be up very soon. I'll have a go, as yours is different (and also similar) to mine.

I'm in.

I will play, but only if there are no prizes. I can only enter competitions if no prize is offered. My religion does not allow gambling. Or drinking and swearing.
