    If changing it to 1ptfor a draw there’s no need to restrict it to maximum of 5 draws can be picked

It would mean that anyone could predict all ten games to end as draws and get three points for every game that DID end up all square, thus (most likely) giving them a good total of maybe 12 or 15 points and finishing up with more points than those who went for mainly home wins or away wins. It's a good idea re the draws but to award three points is a bit too generous I.M.O.
    Remembering some of the prediction weeks we had last season when most of the games ended in draws, wow, ha-ha, lots of points there.
    Nez, Fair point raised and it's what I'm looking for as feedback as to how the new scoring could help improve the table.

    Looking back on the closing games of last season, I felt in a lot of games there was little or nothing to play for so many players/teams didn't put the effort in, hence all the boring drawn games. As for anyone on here attempting to submit draws in the new season, good luck to them as I feel it will be everything to play for. Yes they'll be drawn games but not as many as wins throughout the season.


    I think your idea of a maximum of 5 permitted draws out of 10 fixtures is acceptable and wise to use, so we'll run with that. I'm still going to award 3 points for the draw as it adds an opportunity to claim more points and possibly break the table up so to speak. I wonder how many will predict a drawn game now there will be extra points to be gained? Thanks for the input.

    I will submit my default entry now incase I miss any game weeks. First 5 selections as draws. Second 5 as home wins with 24 goals. Hope this is acceptable and submisable in court.
