This is the Humber Premier League of prediction competitions. There are always enough departures and boundary movements to give everyone a reprieve.

Thanks again, Sean. It's been Boaby Jnr whose submitted 95% of these tips throughout the season and bloody hell, I think it's the best score I've ever achieved. Last season I finished on 210; the little bugger's just blown me out the water. It's been a thoroughly enjoyable experience for the two of us, but I predict he'll have a difficult second season.

So the final day is over. Some with nothing to play for were already on the beach, and didn't even put an attempt in, but at the top of the table there was very little movement.
In the end the joint top score of 11 along with Discordant Resonance confirmed first and third place for myself and irony towers respectively, with Jah Womble, now thirteen points off the top spot, holding on to second by just one point. Jah did secure the three point bonus for being just one shy of the actual total number of goals of 39 by just one, along with Sits and pebblethefish.

[Sean of the Shed]

And thank you everyone for contributing and taking part and making my efforts all worthwhile. I'll be seeing you all in just a couple of months I reckon.

[Duncan Gardner]

Thanks as ever to Sean of the Shed

[Logan Mountstuart]

Cheers Sean and congratulations for your title. A sobering season for me. Hope to be back on form next year. And congratulations to longeared. Pretty emphatic.

[Guy Profumo]

Aye Sean, thanks as ever

[Duncan Gardner]

I've sacked myself and will be bringing in a new supremo shortly

Just double-checked, I did submit an entry for this weekend, it's the first post after your fixtures (not that it'll make much difference, bar the minor placings.)

[irony towers]

Many congratulations on your emphatic win Sean of the Shed. IIRC that means you now get to keep the coveted trophy.

Now that I've placed 1st-2nd-3rd in the last three years, I'm hoping you'll offer a pre-season bonus of predicting our finishing position for 2022-3.

Apologies, DR, it was languishing at the bottom of the previous page. Turns out it was equal top score as well.

Is that three times I've won it now? I wasn't sure whether it was just two.
To be fair I've always held the trophy. It's like the Ashes, you lot only get a replica.
