Thought I would give this another outing, should be interesting what people think this year. Have left it pretty late given the continuing imminence of the arrival of our new strike force, but the start of the season is nearly here...
Just a couple of rules to observe, unless you want to say something wacky and give us all a laugh...
- only L1, FA Cup and League Cup games count
- 'own goals' or 'the striker we haven't signed yet ' are not permitted guesses, as tempting as that might sound
- players who leave us before the end of the season to count (a change from last year) but players who join after the start of the season don't.
To judge the winner, 2 points for each player in the top 5, 2 points for guessing the correct position in the scorers table and 2 points for guessing the right number of goals that player scores. If you get everything right, you score 30 points, so that is the maximum.
Ok, I will kick things off:
1 Okenabirhie - 6 2 Kaikai - 6 3 May - 4 4 Lankester - 4 5 Ahadme - 3
That's got to be too pessimistic right?...

1 Dunk - 42 2 Okenabirhie - 9 3 Lankester - 7 4 Ahadme - 7 5 Kaikai - 5 No way will Dunk get 42!!!!! 30+ probably, not not over 40. That's crazy.

Ahadme - 16 Thomas - 9 Fejiri - 8 Andrew - 5 Morrison 5
Data gathered directly from the Football Manager simulation for the season (we finished 5th so I've booked my hotel for the play-off final already).
Just looked back at last seasons thread and it seems i was one of many to score 12 points in last years predictions! Looking forward to the battle regaining the title in 23/24
