Who is the best Premier League Expert? 2012/13

by The Rouge » 14 Aug 2012 10:06

The rules are:
- Pick 3 Buy Bets and 3 Sell Bets (all bets will have equal stake of assumed £1 a point)
- Place your imaginary bets by 6pm Friday 17th Aug
- The person with the greatest profit wins (a league table will be produced throughout the season, hopefully courtesy of Ian Royal)
- Examples: If you place a Buy bet on Tottenham at 66 points then if they finish on 69 points you will be +£3 on that bet. If they finish on 62 points you would be -£4 on that bet.
- There is a separate competition for the Championship
- This is just for fun
- Mods: It works better in General Football than in Competitions

Odd that I found the "sells" more difficult in the Prem, but the "buys" more difficult in the Champo

Not sure why you'd have a league table on a spread bet but each to his own

So a good tactical choice would be to not buy Reading (11), as almost everyone has bought them, once Floyd joins in we'll have someone who's sold them as well. Other fav buys so far are Arsenal (5) and West Brom (5)

Favourite sell is Fulham (7) with Newcastle (6), Liverpool (4) and Sunderland (4)

No one is touching Citeh with a barge pole so far.

The spreadsheet was to see if I could and practice with them. + I was interested last season in how I was doing but couldn't be arsed to keep working it out. Now all I have to do is put in the form table and it'll do everything for me.
