    Yeah well I'm not happy about where I finished so I demand a total recount!

    Congratulations Pete, a well deserved victory on your part.

    I'm left rueing my unforgivable transgression in forgetting to complete the Easter Monday fixtures. C'est la vie, my continuing goal of finishing higher than Griff every season was at least achieved this term - and I'm safe in the knowledge that rectifying a very simple schoolboy error on my own part will regain me the title next year.

    You were still in it right to the end, so fair play to you. Thanks for competing across the miles, and good luck next season. Looks like I'll have to start dong more research.

    Sometimes, more is less.

    Over the course of the season I made a fundamental error in my prediction strategy which (in hindsight) probably cost me an extra 50 or 60 points. Statistics and knowledge of probability is the key - if you get your equations correct (unlike me for most of the season).

    Thanks for organising Griff, any rule or format changes planned for next term?

    I think that the format's pretty solid, but I'm aways open to suggestions. As for the rules, I don't want people dropping in a couple of times, leaving a standing entry and never being seen again so I'm going to rule those out. That's what the EOB safety-net is for. I'd do it for someone going on holiday for a couple of weeks but not for the whole season.

    I'd be grateful for feedback or any suggestions for improving it.

    I got shot of the PL stuff because I went right off the money-grabbing gits, but that's just my personal take on it. There are many weeks when they don't play, whereas the National and Scottish leagues are there every weekend. The bonuses are a bit of fun, but if the majority don't like them then they can easily be ditched. What do others think?
