It literally feels really good to take your for not being a believer in your team, lucky for you to have won our FPL side bet, if not, it would have been a double blow landed right to you face Grin

Also too bad of me not to have taken you up on finishes higher in the EPL pool.

Oh no,I never imagined we'd overtake a Newcastle team that was competing for a spot in the top 4 while we were at rock bottom, switching from 9th to 10th place for more than nine months. I don't see us losing our final game, so congratulations.

I understand your point, but I was just rather sure that both Newcastle would finish ahead of Chelsea, because If I recall vividly Chelsea had about 3 games at hand then, and I knew that both Aston Villa and Newcastle had some really tough game... although If I were to pick Chelsea finishing above just one of those teams, I probably would picked Aston Villa because I didn't expect thing to turnout like this for them with injury upon injury that kept piling up for them. I'm not just going to celebrate my win yet because I'd not want to jinx it Cheesy

I really cant believe how bad i ended in all the competitions including this one, droping from top to a horrible 17 spot, but not only here droping in LaLiga from third position into 9 in only two rounds, i dont know what to think, i dont change anything in how i made my picks, seems like luck has left me in the most important part of the season.

Nearby to 0 exact in most of the pools.

I’m doing OK in buwaytress’s Rollbit CL Superbru pool. I’m set to get a paid position in that but overall I suck in most of the pools for the last few seasons.

I am probably going to be break even with the Rollbit pool prize when the other entry fees are added up. I guess you have to be in it to win it but maybe I’ll not be in all of them next season.

Yes, the exact score is that part of the random that cannot be controlled and I also had negative emotions because of this. But now, due to the poor position in the standings, in almost all competitions I focus only on the yellow cap and I don’t worry too much if I don’t guess enough results again.
I feel like I'm paying off a debt from last season when I was a rookie but won a lot Grin

United is a really badly assembled team but I like Kobbie Mainoo a lot. I say that every time I watch him play, the kid's got superstar potential.

He is a decent lad, I will like to see him in the Euros this year.

We need to finish strong and pray Manchester wins the FA cup.

You have to clarify which Manchester side. But as it stands I hope you climb above Tottenham on the final day and United win the FA cup so Spursy will be playing conference league next season with the other zero ambition clubs.

The performance which we have from Tottenham in last 10 games they deserve to be out of the top 6 but most chances they will be keep their place here with Sheffield United can beat them, and they could be dropped to sixth as Chelsea done impressive run and now having chance of 5th spot which could be ideal end of their season after too many poor results, but they are on recovery and next season could be much better for them.
Now Manchester City is having chance of double even Manchester United done good job but still they are not strong enough to hold Citizens into final of the FA Cup with this quality.

Success, without a doubt, increases your fan base, and it is difficult for non-city clubs like Chelsea and others to compete with city clubs like Liverpool and Manchester United, where nearly everyone who grew up there became a fan right away.

98% of my state's population supports our local club, Rivers United, in the Nigeria Premier League, good or bad. Liverpool dominated in the 1980s, Manchester United dominated in the 1990s, and Chelsea rose to prominence in the 2000s, so most of our fans emerged from the cave once the team provided us with something to be proud of. Grin

And to be honest I actually not only agree but say this is correct and should be a right thing to happen. Why else would a club want success if not to build a fanbase? Cup money is temporary. Fan money is forever Tongue

But I think the thing here I wanted to say is about plastic fans. Fans who only suddenly show up because they have a great team, but once the team is down, they are quiet and disappear.

Worse, they even change teams! I saw too many Manchester United fans who suddenly became Chelsea fans and worse now become City fans. I never understood this. This is something quite common among Asians plastic fans.

I feel like it makes a difference like City having quiet fans, even remember Mourinho complained Stamford bridge was quiet stadium. He should have expected that tho, majority were the plastic fans who only showed up because of Russian money. At least now you can see who is a true Chelsea fan if they're still showing up. Same as Barca and United lol

I do not see Tottaham losing to Sheffield United - that's the only way that happens. They're shit but Sheffield United can't withstand what's coming for them.

Last day of the season, give a show in front of your fans before returning to the lower division, players under zero pressure and wanting to show other clubs they are worth buying so they stay up. I do see a scenario where that happens and hope it does.

I would have said the Euros will do a number on your players with injuries but not many of them will feature for their country Grin

I want Manchester City to win so that Tottenham (5th) and Chelsea (6th) can qualify for the Europa League next season. We don't care if Arsenal plays in the Champions League as long as they don't win the league.

I want Chelsea (5th) and Tottenham (6th), then United win the league so Spursy end up in the Conference league, let their fans cheer on that. You have no cards in Arsenal playing in the Champions league so you cannot really care and the league is not over yet.

Wish our senior players can stay with us for more than 7 months without injuries next season.

Chelsea started to show quite good performances in the late times of the season. They managed to collect 13 points in the last 5 matches. For next season, I think that they have a big chance for top 4. I was checking the side bets as the end of the season was approaching. If Haaland doesn't score 7 goals on the last week I'm going to pay cryptofrka's PL pool entry fee next season. If Haaland didn't get injured during the season I think I would be the winner of this side bet.

Would have been close, yeah.

I'm the biggest loser though, I had Salah over 22,5 and he had 14 in 20 games before AFCON.
Injury there made him miss 3 easy games (Brentford, Luton and Forest) and he simply didn't return to pre-AFCON form.

Well, you win some you lose some. See you soon for the Euros Cool

Looks Like I won this @swogerino lol. It was pretty close actually. Im kinda glad that Chelsea had a rough start at the early season. I thought I was going to pay you because I vaguely remembered that I probably bet on Manchester United to finish ahead of Chelsea lol.

My newcastle bet against you looked decent up until about 3 weeks ago, haha. Do you have a link handy for the spreadsheet with all those bets?

You won the side bet against me 20 games into the season - Stone can't even catch a break. Angry

Chelsea topping Newcastle means I'm losing $50 to Harkorede, can't believe I went against my club but yal fuck it as long as I'm gonna play the Europa league next season after a terrible start I don't care much. We need to finish strong and pray Manchester wins the FA cup.

I guess there will be a lot of them next season Wink

-------------------

I was holding the 10th place which is also last place for the paid prizes in the pool, only for to drop points this week and I'm currently 1.5 points away from the 10th position with a lot people right on my tail too. I'll need quite a miracle to make it into the final top 10 this game week.

I was thinking that you would absolutely be the winner. However from this day on there is a little miracle required for Newcastle to finish the league ahead of Chelsea. Maybe I might make a combined bet for this small probability on the last week.

Claimed 1 spot back and looking good to keep it, maybe even in a shout to challenge Saint-loup for 3rd. Omikfuse keeping his advantage intact, he'll deservedly walk away with a huge prize. Joca97 safe in top3 as well.

I like that kid too, surprised to say I've watched quite a few United games in flashes and when he plays, the team just look more exciting. Just hope they instil enough discipline in him so he doesn't go Rashford (someone I still like, just struggle to understand his recent decisions, he's not a teen anymore).

Early well done to the Top 5s, you're all pretty much guaranteed to walk away with something decent here.
