Welcome all, new and old, to the 2015-16 DS Premier League Prediction competition, running for the tenth 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 fourof 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!

Seems like we've barely been away....

The Ashes will still be alive when the season begins. Not sure that's because we are playing decent cricket, just the football is starting earlier!

Yes, it's hard to get up for it while the cricket's still going. And Livesport have stopped their service broadcasting live all 380 games here in Japan. So I might not join the league this season.

I think it happened in 2005 as well.

You should still join. I don't even watch the Premiership full stop, but I do enjoy the prediction league.

Love the Perfect TV logo.

Used to get a lot of tapes sent over back in the day.

I have entered the competition before but haven't had time in the last couple of years. My high moment being correctly predicting a Reading 2-5 Arsenal scoreline . I'll give it another go.
