Nah I was thinking it lasts a week each round so you could have 8 or 16 entrants.

Pair them up and play as normal tipping every day. Winner goes through to the next week and the next round.

Shrewd punters such as myself don't bet every day though. I only put one up if theres one I really fancy (hence my excellent strikerate). Betting every day for the sake of it is the fast way to the poorhouse IMO.

Ultimate 12.10 Cheltenham

Been waiting for this one's reappearance for a while. The runner from the Crook yard is a big concern but I'm keeping faith.

Very true but does not make for a very good tipping contest with no real money at stake.

Thinking about it I suppose it defeats the object of having a Daily Tipster Competition too

Some sort of knockout is a cool idea. Maybe 48 hours instead, giving some leeway for people forgetting/not wanting a bet?

2.25 Chelt - Chapoturgeon

The gambled-on Olofi wins. Not sure what happened to Ultimate as I didn't see the race.

Daryl Jacobs replaces the injured Timmy Murphy on this one.

Saturday selection ...

That's Rhythm - Doncaster 3.20

On the knock out note

What if both entrants lose? Profit to date?

Also, there are too many markets for it to last once a week and some people could delay their bet until t'other is in to see what they have to do to win.

No that's the luck of the draw one tie could see someone go out at say +12 but someone might go through being -3. Same as the FA Cup you would not want to draw a Man Utd (Wanderer) but would be happy to get Boston United (mentioning no names as a comparison).

I think if it was to work both players submit they're entries by PM to someone and only get posted on here when both tips are received.

I'd say keep it daily and if a prediction is not received they lose 10 anyway.

Think it should be something going forward and getting new people in if possible not just the same old 5 and 6 from before and keeping it short and sweet (8 entries can be all decided in 3 weeks) should keep the interest and if you get knocked out another one comes round soon enough.

AC Milan to beat Palermo at 1.5

I dont think you understood my point. What if both tie's player's bets lose?

Say if i had Everton to beat Chelsea yesterday and you had Chelsea to beat Everton.

What'd happen?

Both lose a tenner on the day...I was thinking every match in the round would be decided by profit or loss over a week.

Sounds good to me.

Wonder if we drum up interest over the next couple of weeks and start the knockout in the new year?

PS Thanks for the earlier compliment (no pressure now

) - Also referring to a Bolton supporter as the Man Utd of this thread

Go for it.

How're we gonna get this started then? Personally i dont think we'll get far. But prove me wrong

West Brom v QPR - 4/6 for me tomorrow please

We've postponed for now

And you need to have an input on how things work around here as you're quite a regular.

I'm in the [iclique[/i?


So what's the news?

Yes i think we can count you in



Erm not enough punters

Running a knock-out comp over a week possibly.

Any more ideas?

Shame that [size=50(probably the best thing for me considering my record so far though)[/size
Why not get 16 'punters' and have a knock out comp?
Had something similar in the premier league predictions league at my dad's work.

West Brom to beat QPR.

1.45 Cork - Red Key

The comp is no more mate
