lookersstandandy Posted August 1, 2018 Author Share Posted August 1, 2018 There are many OWTB members who prefer to watch/read and not post a great deal. Prediction League is for you too, just like it is for @milnrow latics, @aidan_latics, @a259 & @Ak's11. Why not join them? All you have to do is, pay the £10 entrance fee via PayPal to stevie_j@owtb.co.uk (Please note the underscore) with your OWTB username in the comments box. Half the money goes into the prize fund, the other half split between OWTB running costs & O4U's chosen charity. Then, place your Prediction for the MK Dons (h) game in the following thread; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit like any time I've joined a fantasy football league, I know my enthusiasm for the competition will wain pretty quickly. I'd be more than happy to contribute to O4U's chosen charity though when details are announced. This is exactly where I am too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attendances range from 3,342 to 4,567. Oh... and 1 predictor has failed to predict a HT score. What do you think will happen on Saturday?

lookersstandandy Posted August 3, 2018 Author Share Posted August 3, 2018 There are 5 Predictors with a guaranteed place in this season's Championship who are yet to renew. @Latics_Fanatic, @NewBlue, @Stainrod, @underdog & @yarddog73. If any of these Predictors choose not to rejoin, then their Championship places will go to the highest placed [Championship] relegated Predictors from last season, who are Lawman, @Runningman, @simplythemostimportantkick, @Handsy & @HarryBosch, assuming these Predictors also renew.
