2021/22 ‘Fastest Goal Of The Week’ Competition

OK, so here we go again. The new season begins Friday 13 August.

I’m sure you all know how it works. But for any new players, here are the rules.

From the weekly set of fixtures, just pick a team that you think will score the earliest/fastest goal of the week (not the first goal scored in the earliest match of the week, but the earliest goal scored across all games that week).

Make sure you submit your prediction before kick-off of the first game of the week, otherwise your prediction will not count.

This season, we’re going to try a new scoring system. So, if you correctly choose the fastest scoring team, you’ll score 3 points. For choosing the second fastest, it’s 2 points; and third fastest, it’s 1 point.

Hopefully that’s clear enough. But, please ask if you have any questions (about the game, obviously).

New players welcome (as we can’t have those clampits winning again. Oh wait, I was one of those clampits!).


Week 1 fixtures coming soon...

I’m not sure how likely postponements are in the new season. But just in case, we’ll continue with allowing THREE PREDICTIONS, to see how things pan out over the first few weeks.

Brentford v Arsenal
Man Utd v Leeds
Burnley v Brighton
Chelsea v Crystal Palace
Everton v Southampton
Leicester v Wolves
Watford v Aston Villa
Norwich v Liverpool
Newcastle v West Ham
Tottenham v Man City


- Get your predictions in by Friday 13 August at 8pm.


Good luck everyone!

Tottenham
Leicester
Liverpool

And just for fun it looks like Arsenal could score the first goal of the new season.

NOTE - As we have some new players, I’ll just confirm the situation.

We’re allowing up to three predictions in case of any postponements due to Covid.

So, if your first choice team’s match is postponed, your second choice team becomes your chosen team. Then, onto the third choice team.

Hope that’s clear.

Talking of Them Uns I spotted the player responsible for the introduction of the black card in the ecclesiastical Capital of Ireland today, inagine my surprise when he managed to remain upright given the inbred balance issues in that county :eek::rolleyes:

Good job it wasn’t breezy, or he’d have fell over ;)

PS. I know it’s always nice to blame themmuns, but the black card rule was already passed at Congress before that incident. I’m sure there’s other things we could pin on themmuns though...
