Coming soon for 2019/20: The Lone Ranger
The aim of the game is to stay above zero points and avoid elimination. If you are the last man standing you will be crowned “The Lone Ranger”
All you have to do it pick a team from The Premier League or Championship you think will win in the coming weekends fixtures. They can be playing at home or away, you simply pick a team you think will win.
So entry literally consists of typing 1 team name each week.
Each player starts the season with 10 points.
If the team you picked wins you breathe easily and gain half a point
If they draw you lose half a point. If the team you picked lets you down lose you lose 2 of your 10 points.
Lose all of your points and you are out of the game. So players will drop out at various stages but it will be a month or two before anybody is eliminated.
The catch is you can only select each team once for the duration of the game. So if you choose QPR in Round 1 you can never select them again. You effectively have a choice of 44 teams in Round 1, 43 in Round 2 and so on from the Premier League/Championship selection pool. You can only select Man City and Liverpool once!
The aim is to be the last man standing with points remaining when all others have fallen by the wayside.... “The Lone Ranger”
The game could end at any point later in the season but in the event that a number of players have avoided elimination by the last round of the season the winner will be the player with the highest remaining total of points - so you need to keep totting up the wins regardless of whether you are close to elimination or not
In the event that players are tied on points the player with the longest consecutive winning streak at any stage of the season will win. If that still tied it will be the number of wins predicted and then fewest defeats predicted
Round 1 will be ready to enter in the coming weeks so keep your eyes peeled!
