I'd been in 5th place for weeks and tried some outlandish predictions in order to try to catch up and that's back-fired a little.
Hi all, sorry for the delay in getting the scores up. Unfortunately I have a project due in tomorrow, and so will not be able to do it until Friday. Legs, feel free to put the last one up! Adds more excitement at the very least...

Fuxtix, Foxywfc and Levon are relegated to the Lu*ton forum - hopefully see you again soon!
I was on course for 5th until the last 3 weeks I made a few wild predictions in the hope of catching Teide1. Lesson from my own industry - never chase your losses.
Thanks to Happyhornet24 and Cyberinternetdog for pushing me all the way, especially over the last few weeks!, the 1-1 Stoke V Sunderland score nearly made all the difference HH24, with that last minute 20 point difference to yourself! when Sunderland scored (about three weeks ago) I thought you were going to do it after that!
Well done Teide. Turns out I was more Spurs than Leicester (although at least I clung on to the second spot) but still pretty chuffed. Not bad for someone who doesn't understand the offside rule Thanks Legs and miked for organising.
This is a "love in" for those in the top 10 only*. **** off. *(plus UHORNS - maths was never my strong point)
Why don't you shove your love in up your ar$es. You only got lucky a couple of weeks, that's all. Besides, I don't care anyway. I wanted to finish 17th. I refer back to my post of some point in the distant past where I said specifically that 17th was my goal and anything better is only for Jurado lovers. You, you bunch of Jurado loving scumbags.
Week 36 I guess you all missed my thread for the final week, for the couple of thousand fixtures in the non-leagues of Azerbaijan, Bolivia and Kenya to name a few. This has nothing to do with the Chinese betting syndicate that seemed to influence the Eurovision sweepstake, so stop thinking that it is.

Without your enthusiasm, and this includes you GF, the game would never get going and any work would all be in vain. So thank you all! In the words of Scousers worldwide: Next year will be my year. See you in August.
Congrats Teide. Enjoy your year in the lime light. It passes quickly (in or around 52 weeks actually) Many thanks to Miked and Legs again for your commitment to the cause.
I'm yet to get the winners information pack, so I'm not too sure what privileges the next 12 months hold, oh wait a minute just got another Australian Radio station wanting to do an interview!
Funny you should say that, I had a call but turned them down as they wanted to put me up in a club house in the rough part of town, somewhere I hadn't heard of sounded like Sandblanks, told them where to go!
Well done Teide. You join a select band of, well basically geniuses, who have won this coveted competition. Enjoy the limelight but the constant attention from the media does get a little tiresome. Thanks to the organisers, hope you carry on next year
As another past winner i can only echo Knhights comments. Look forward to 25th place obscurity in the future
