And so it begins. The pre-season bravado that evolves into mid season desperation when Matt’s own predictions show that he knows little about football, followed by more pseudo-bravado as he starts copying others’ predictions to bolster his position, then claiming a Herculean recovery that is not really his own before tripping up at the final hurdle, losing spectacularly yet claiming victory in a Trumpian manner that has the rest of the predictors both laughing and rolling their eyes simultaneously.

Good luck Matt - you’ll need it.

:laughing: :grinning: :wink:

The standard is - slow start, muddling along in the middle, then finishing like a train.

I’ve never lost ground over the final 10 games and expecting yet another finish above the struggling Manchester cabal as they look on enviously. And quietly.

Didn’t you finish above me twice? :grinning:

As the most successful predictor of all time, it’s simply one of the challenges that goes with the territory.

:innocent:

You certainly are challenged.

Never enviously - I never copy predictions (on purpose anyway :grinning: ) so I have the moral high ground.
