English Premier weekly prediction contest
Anybody interested in a friendly weekly EPL match prediction contest?
To keep it easy I was thinking about awarding 3 points for a correct score and 1 point for a correct outcome.
Week 1 (weekends only)
Here's mine:
Sunderland 1 Spurs 2
Bolton 1 Newcastle 1
Derby 0 Portsmouth 1
Everton 2 Wigan 1
M'Boro 2 Blackburn 0
West Ham 2 Man C 2
Aston V 1 LPool 3
Arsenal 3 Fulham 0
Chelsea 2 Birm C 0
Man U 4 Reading 0
Anyone else interested?

What is a good site to see EPL stats, scores, schedule and so on?
TSN and sports.Yahoo.com (which I normally use) are USELESS!

The most anyone got was 4 out of 10? With the BIG3 at home? No wonder English bookies make a killing. I'd be interested to see what's the most anyone makes in any week? 8/10 would be a miracle!

No, I got 5 right. You dont get the extra point for the game if you got the score right.
