Well, it was never all over until the thin man sings, but
@redlanered is undoubtedly a deserving
winner of the Prediction League for 2020-21. Having took the lead at Week 10, no one has had the stamina to keep up with our champion. Congratulations to
@redlanered for a magnificent win with an emphatic 10-point lead over second place.
In this end-of-season Prediction League summary, there are four posts in a somewhat unusual order. The first post is the roll of honour for the 2020-21 season, some awards as well as some random Prediction League stats. The second post is where you can chart your season. The third post has the final League tables in full and the fourth post shows the Week 34 results, although a quick mention here for this week's high-scorer,
@AFKABartram, with an impressive 7 points. So, let's get started.

Fortunately, I can write computer programs that do all the donkey work.
Big thanks to thai malaysia addick for giving his time & effort running the competition. Interesting breakdown on things as well.
Thanks again for all your work to keep us entertained.
Euros edition?
Thanks for organising
( When do I pick up my National League winner medal ? 😉)
Delighted to win the main* competition.
*Well the one that really counts
Great competition. Thanks for running it tma
As the holder of the worse run of results (0 for 13 weeks) I'll hopefully be able to move on and build. I've released all my advisors and the rebuild gas already begun
Cannot wait for pre-season
