7 out of 61 lifers got a return on their virtual tenner this final week.
@Starinnaddick is the weekly winner with wins for Newcastle (3.40) and Tottenham (3.40) netting them £115.60
Collectively just under £3k down if laid with a real bookie.
Congratulations to
@Big_Bob who is this years champion.
@Sonicstud85 was runner up and also had the biggest single return of the season with £612.
@CL_Phantom was third.
The top 3 along with
@Lewis Coaches and
@Sillybilly were weekly winners on 2 occasions and
@Redmidland had the most returns with 13.
@Big_Bob,
@CL_Phantom,
@southamptonaddick and
@cherryorchard all had three treble figure returns.
36 out of the 99 lifers that took part would’ve shown a profit if laid with a real bookie.
On the flip side,
@johnnybev1987 @Paddy Powell and
@Addick Addict all drew blanks in all 34 weeks.
I hope winners backed it in reality or at least this acts towards showing how difficult just picking 3 results can be and can be used as a tool to measure and control having a flutter.
If anyone has any ideas on freshening the competition for next season then let us know and will consider if not too much additional work.
Or if someone else wants to take the reigns, just let us know and I don’t mind stepping aside.
In any case, see you next season.

Personally I don't think this needs any tweaking at all, it's great in it's current format.
Agree with others, doesn't need tweaking
Many thanks for doing it.
The format works well and is easy for everyone to understand so no tweaking required.
Thanks @paulsbaconsarnie for all your effort.
Looking forward to trying to break into the top 3 next season.
And I managed that to end up in 7th !
11 trebles came in so all good though i couldn't get near Big Bob who with his 3 wins blew everybody out the water.
Bravo to @paulbaconsarnie
Many thanks for all your work on it, it's much appreciated.
And following your refrain, 'I hope the winners backed it in reality', I have been backing mine in reality and have made enough profit to retire early. Twenty minutes early, in fact.
Cheers.
Cheers for all the effort that goes into this, i wouldn't change a thing.
Having turned a profit in four of the five seasons I have entered this. I've just checked back and realised I would have been £615.77 up if I had actually placed those bets! And that is with just 16 winning weeks out of over 160!! I will definitely be placing a bet each week from now on.
The only change I can suggest is that the image displaying the odds could be smaller, as it was a few years back, like the ones below. It makes it easier to pick the best value odds, especially when using a phone.
Always nice to remind myself why I gave up gambling
