    I've already submitted so Newcastle so here's hoping they win.

    77 left in one, 47 left in the other.

    Brentford shitting the bed at home against a woeful Everton side fucked me over.

    Still going.

    18 in one, 16 in the other. I'm already spending the winnings in my head.

    West Ham this week, at home to Everton. Hopefully the Thursday trip to Greece won't ruin it.

    Have you already used Villa?

    Villa (LUT)
    Palace (bur) / Wolves (shu)
    Man Utd (lut)
    West Ham (bur)
    Brentford (lut)
    Fulham (nfo)
    Wolves (nfo)

    It won't get that far but this is my plan through to GW17. My game has a wild card that you play that sees you through if your selection gets a draw, probably use that next week.

    £680 prize pot has rolled over.

    Starts again this week. Should be over quickly thanks to the rush of Christmas games. More expected to join too so could be close to £1500 prize this time round.

    What’s the plan @-james-?

    Wow. So the big game I play is up to £2135 “minimum” prize money (whatever that means) and was down to two people left this weekend. Bournemouth drew so the last lad needs West Ham to win, who are currently losing 2-0 to Burnley. He’s backed the draw and Burnley win £100 on each, so he’s up either way, but it’s looking like yet another rollover.

    What’s the play @-james-

    Is it starting this week (where there are only four matches), or after the international break?

    How many people are involved in this and how does the money get so high?

    Unlucky With both selections drawing, the game ends without a winner, so we roll over to game 4. The next full set of fixtures is w/e of 30th March, so we go again then.

    140 players, £10entry, rolled over loads of times.

    I've just entered a game as well. This looks like the optimal path at the moment, though it depends on whether the midweek games in 34 are fair game

    30: Chelsea (BUR)
    31: Liverpool (SHU)
    32: Man City (cry)
    33: Brentford (SHU)
    34: Man Utd (SHU)
    35: Newcastle (SHU)
    36: Arsenal (BOU)
    37: Everton (SHU)
    38: Spurs (SHU)

    Chelsea first up and backing City against one of their few bogey teams? Bold.

    30: Spurs (LUT)
    31: Liverpool (SHU)
    32: Chelsea (shu)
    33: Man City (LUT)
    34: Man Utd (SHU)
    35: Newcastle (SHU)
    36: Arsenal (BOU)
    37: Everton (SHU)
    38: ?

    This is marginally better I think actually depending on the likelihood of making it to 38. Acca will pay about 7/1 to that point.

    Will copy your second list once Everton are successfully dispatched tomorrow.

    Surely even the data at this point suggests that Chelsea are a bit of a punt in any situation.

    I generally just try minimize the odds of getting to the number of matches I expect the game to run for. Chelsea were the joint second shortest team this week (City 1.35, Spurs/Chelsea 1.42, Arsenal 1.52, Liverpool 1.59, Everton 1.75), but in hindsight there was a pretty good case for Arsenal/Everton (considering I was looking at picking them much later and I'm not sure the game will get there).
