PREDICTIONS COMPETITION 2010-11

As usual, the last football season was very difficult to predict! Ok, so nearly everyone had Man U and Chelsea in the top three but no-one had all three relegation contenders, with West Brom and Wigan amongst the more frequently wrong answers! Also very few people predicted that Chris Hughton would be the first managerial casualty. Most people were either too optimistic or pessimistic (usually pessimistic!) about SAFC’s final league position with only a handful guessing it would be 10th.

Once I’d done the marking (us teachers just love those red pens!) it was good to have an outright winner – Terry Stobbs with 90 points. Terry has received a cheque for £30 which represents half the proceeds.

Close behind on 80points was Oz Watt and then on 70 points were Rich Walton and John Griffiths.

Special thanks must go to Rich Walton for encouraging so many of his colleagues at Network Rail to enter the competition. Better luck next year gents!

Next season’s form, which follows the same format, is below. Please feel free to photocopy it if you need more. If you would like extra paper copies please send me an e-mail Alternatively you can download a copy from the website.

I look forward to receiving your entries – good luck!
