1.5 points ffs. I’d have been better off getting my 2 year old granddaughter to pick the scores.

Same,I’ve got worse as the season goes on

Damn, already forgot about today’s matches :person_facepalming:

@murrayjohnson takes the crown for Round 37 with 18 points, from @Adpully on 15.5 points. @Pan collects the wooden spoon on 4 points from @malbec with 8.5 points.

Overall, @htm_1968 remains 6.5 points ahead of @murrayjohnson who takes it to the last matches of the season with hope of stealing the title. @Ijrussell is 6 points further back in 3rd, 3 points ahead of @sjs in 4th. @Adpully rises back above @Pan by 3.5 points, also taking that competition to the last match.

Round 38 is the last match of the season, and all ten matches kick off at 4pm on Sunday. At the bottom, it is a 4 way fight to claim bottom of the non-relegated teams between Wolves, West Ham, Man Utd and the Europa League Champions Spurs. At the top it is a 5 way fight for the European places, between Man City, Newcastle, Chelsea, Aston Villa and Notts Forest.
While Liverpool party to the end of the season continues, there remains plenty to play for.

Thanks for organising this again Simon. I’ve really enjoyed the season despite being mystified by the final result. Proof the pure arse sometimes wins in the end….

Can’t believe Uncle beat me to last place, despite not playing for the last few months.

Thanks Simon. I enjoyed it despite my bad start, dip in form in the middle of the season, then tailed off a bit towards the end.
Roll on next season. I reckon I can reach the heady heights of lower mid table if Lady Luck is on my side.

It was closer in the end that it was looking a month or so ago, but after 380 match predictions, the top 4 were within 8.5 points, or 2.5%, which is a lot closer than the EPL title race this season :grin:

The last round was exciting - It was that close that I could have finished anywhere from 2nd to 5th.

@sjs are you setting one up for the upcoming season?

I was about to launch the appeal for members for the upcoming season as I am getting spammed by the hosting platform :rofl:

So, shall we do this again for EPL 2025/26 season?
