    Yes that’s correct that’s only thing is getting the numbers right so the draw pans out…pretty sure we have lots of entrants or there seamt to be anyway…so I reckon we should get to the 32 mark at least think 64 might be pushing it…

    Other than your solutions is have a prelim round to get the right number down or might not be fair way but have the first 32 entrants in the first league game as the 32…

    And also if the entrants doesn’t post then I am afraid they are out of cup…not sure any average score thing will work of fair in this format…

    Now maybe not be a good time to suggest my champions league format idea and breakaway league for the top six…just joking…brins abacus couldn’t stand it..😜

    We've never had as many as 32, the most we had last season was 27 at one stage but, the wrong words were said by some so others packed it in, shame really. Let's hope those that initially left look to give it another go this time around.

    Well 27 people have read this thread so I guess that's a good rough indication of initial interest and we usually get a 40-50% drop off during the season so expect only around 15 will make it to the end of a 46 week marathon.

    The most we ever had join the PL was 62 back in the days when we predicted the actual scores and it took me and a pretty powerful Excel spreadsheet between 2-3 hours each week to calculate the results and table. Only around 30 made it to the end that season.

    My shoes and socks would have to come off for that amount!
