Did a quick search. This looks like it's the most obvious choice: https://fantasy.premierleague.com

And it looks promising too. Tbh, I prefer playing this than the BBC prediction game (tho I would still play next season). It looks a lot more fun imo.

I honestly never partook in one myself but I've been wanting to...

Ok. I'll get them both going at the end of the season.

Hey hilarious so will the Betting Pool V2.0 start next season? Because I am waiting to be a part of the pool ever since January and I don't have any idea when my pool will start.

Yes, there will be a new one for next season. I figured there's probably not much point doing the other one right now seeing as there's not many games left this season. As I mentioned above I will probably be doing two though: a smaller stake one and a higher stake one if there's enough demand for the latter and people can join both if they want. I will send details out when this season finishes.

Yes that is understandable as fewer games won't be appealing for people as if a member got an lead in terms of points other members won't have a chance to catch up. So will you be calling off the old one which I am part in? Or will you consider it as the smaller stake as it only will cost us £20? So that I know when to expect a new thread or not.

Football Fantasy League seems to be fun and you can also count me in. But if both prediction and fantasy league will be open I would only go to prediction instead as Fantasy League games requires more time.

The v2 likely won't be going ahead because there's probably not much point given there's only two months left but those who expressed interest can just join in next season. Hopefully with those and current users and new additions the pool will be double in size. I'm sure since this one has been a success more people will be interested and I'll open it as soon as the season ends so we've got maximum time to promote it.

^ What about if we do a fantasy league next season...? That would be fun too.

We could do and I'd be willing to get one going but never partook in one myself. Are there any sites similar to the BBC we could use for free?

As one of the new guys planing on joining next season I don't mind £100 stake but it could be a little high for most people. I would rather have 20 people playing at £50 stake than 5 people playing at £100. I saw you guys had a poll for seasonal or weakly payments, maybe it would be good to put up one for stakes as well.

I've already said I'll do both. I agree £100 may be a lot for most but £25 isn't much at all really and the more money put in the bigger the pot is. If I can get 5-10 users for the £100 I'll happily do that as a bonus league for people wanting higher stakes.

Crikey, I got murdered this week... 20 points two consecutive weeks and Top 5 slipping farther away. I should have stuck to "going with the bookies" on the big City and Utd games... though I suppose I wouldn't have predicted the tight win at Chelsea or the Matic winner at injury time. Even Liverpool couldn't score the extra goal I needed to get full points.

Predictions open for next week. Liverpool for a famous 3-0 win at Old Trafford to take them into 2nd place!

Man Utd have been just doing enough, not playing that well all season. I can't believe they’re in 2nd place still. Salah, Mane & Firmino are going to tear them a new arse hole on Saturday.

Lol. I hope so but maybe not away. United made a pretty impressive comeback last night from 2-0 down. Lets see how Liverpool do tonight in the Champions League. Hope they don't put out a b-team because of their hefty lead.

I've had a couple 20 pointers and Steph only got 30 last week. Just make sure to make it up in previous rounds. A few good weeks with a lot of points could really shake thigns up at the top especially if the top five have bad weeks.

cicciobtc.....

Lol. Not quite. More like I swiftly dodge to the side as he jumps in as we're both tied right now Grin

. I wonder what the odds are of all the current top five being dethroned.

We should do a higher stakes league next season for the big boys. We can still do a cheaper one at £25 or so but I'm up for putting in £100 or more if there's a handful of others that are. We should probably get more people joining the next time we start it as well.

Oh I didn’t realise you were tied. It’s getting interesting up at the top 1-3 for sure. I think the final winner will come from one of you 3.

I’d be up for a £100 stake definitely but for the PL 2018/19 not the world cup, I hate international footy it stinks.

For short tournaments like world cup £100 is much too high. When we organize Fantasy leagues for that types of tournaments, the stakes are usually fraction of stakes used for whole season (maybe 10-20£). That way it is fun way to shorten the wait for next season

and everybody plays even if they don't like international football.

Lol. But you're already in the top 5 and you're just a few points away from being in the top three. No bet. What about betting on Zidane leaving before the next season starts. Not given the sack, but him resigning. I say yes he will.

20 USD bet.

OK, I don't like this bet a lot but I say he will not resign himself ,at maximum he will be given the sack as there has always been the case with the Real Madrid team.

Max offer from me for this bet is 0.001 BTC. Let me know if you agree.

Yo, about this bet... Let's agree when exactly the season 'ends'. I mean if a manager was planning to leave a club we couldn't really expect him to make an announcement right after the last match.

So can we agree that the bet would be 'Zidane leaves before the new season begins'? That was the whole point of the bet anyway... Him not managing Real after this season.

Yeah, Cicciobtc has just taken the top spot for the first time I believe but hopefully not for long Grin

. I just got a correct score on the 2-1 Brighton win over Arsenal which if Cicciobtc didn't predict a Brighton win will take me ten points clear at the top again I believe. Doesn't really matter though cos it's still so close at the top.

haha.. but unfortunately Cicciobtc get 10 points too Grin

yes it does not matter because you are still at the top and have the same points. I'm very happy to see the competition in this tournament getting tighter.

Congratulations, I also predicted the correct score for Brighton vs Arsenal, I wanted to change it before the game started as I thought maybe a draw but I left it untouched and it is a good decision. While only nine weeks to go after this one things are becoming very interesting at the top.

maybe I can do my best score of the season!

Yeah congrats man, you are at the top now. I'm personally quite happy to get 130 points, hopefully I can defend it to get in the top 5, because previously I wanted to be in the top 10 and now it has been achieved. Grin

Good luck all.

Wow, that means you probably should be standing at the top of the standings but we have to see the update from BBC, BCC isn't updating the rankings yet. Congratulations, you have a chance to beat my all time and best time score of the week during all season which sits at 200 points. I am happy with 60 points so far
