Welcome all, new and old, to the 2013-14 DS Premier League Prediction competition, running for the eighth consecutive season no less.

For those that haven’t played before, the rules are fairly simple: Simply guess the scoreline of every single match over the entire 38 match season. For every successful prediction, points will be awarded thus:

Correct result: i.e you pick the right winner of a match, or successfully select a draw: 2 points

Ditto but achieving the correct SCORELINE too: 5 points

Ditto last but in a game with four or more goals: 7 points

The only other rule is you may only select identical scorelines in four of the ten matches each week. NB: Going for a (e.g) 2-1 home win does not constitute an identical prediction to a 2-1 away win.

If you miss a week, don’t worry too much, as only your best 35 of 38 weekly scores will ultimately count. It also gives you room for the occasional stinker.

These points are then fed in a table, just like the PL (well, sort of), and at the end of the season the player with the most points is the winner.

No timewasters please as it takes a lot of time calculating the scores and doing the tables. Only enter if you're prepared to stick with it all season. Cheers

Any queries please either raise them on the thread or PM me / Dimble Burbleby. Good luck!

Roll of honour:

2006-07: Tennis Maestro
2007-08: Tokyo
2008-09: Tokyo
2009-10: Arthur Pringle (now playing as Shrewn)
2010-11: Sattrega

Actually. I wonder if anyone will miss this coming season due to this now being in a seperate sports game section.

I wonder if the mods will put a sticky link in the Football Forum.

I was contemplating asking the mods for a sticky (albeit in this forum) but decided against it..... thought it looked a bit hubristic....
