Rules

Each season lasts 10 weeks in duration, at the end of which:
* the person who accumulates the most profit is the divisional winner.
* the top 6 finishers in Division 1, will replace the bottom 6 (including any drop outs) in the Premiership Diviison.

You have 12 points each week to split between either 2 or 3 selections. If you don't use your points before the deadline, then you will lose 6 points that week.

The maximum allowable bet size is 6 points, and selections must be singles only. (no doubles or trebles etc...)

I will stick the odds up each week once available. You are welcome to post before the odds go up, and odds are not to be quoted anyway when making selections.
(Matches to make your picks from, "unless I specify otherwise", are Friday - Sunday games incorporate the English & Scottish League divisions, plus the English conference.)

All your picks must be made before 3pm on Saturday.
Though of course any selections for pre Saturday 3pm matches, need to be made before kick off!

To make calculating the scores easier for me, please lay out your selections as per the format below:

5pts Tottenham (if this is your chosen selection)
5pts Exeter (X) (home team, followed by (X) if you are picking a draw.)

Reserve: Wolves (in the event of a postponement, your reserve selection will take the place of your original pick.)

If your selections are unclear, then you risk your picks being voided, resulting in upto the full 6 points being lost for that week.
