Barry and Paul’s Predictions GW16
Welcome to Barry and Paul’s Predictions GW16. Normal service resumed in GW15 with no majorly surprising results. In terms of the scores, Liverpool’s emphatic 1-5 win away to Brighton was the standout victory, Man City scraped a 2-1 over West Ham with many predicting a landslide victory that never came. Dwight Gayle popped up with the first goal of the GW in Newcastle’s 3-1 defeat to Chelsea, proving once again that predicting the first scorer of the GW is actually quite tricky!
LAST WEEKS WINNERS!
Top spot for the week was shared by MBD, DenPerryDidit and Coys9 with 14pts, everyone’s favourite cock Inittowinit took second place with 13pts, all the more impressive given that he predicted Man City to put 14 past West Ham! Bry and Matt (fix I here you scream once again) make up the top 3 finishing on 12pts. Thanks to everyone who entered, better luck next week everyone!
Congrats to MBD, DenPerryDidit and Coys, please contact FF247 at contact@fantasyfootball247.co.uk to get your hands on that FF247 t-shirt.

Rules & Scoring
The rules are few; 1 entry per person, and all entries must be submitted prior to the first game of the game-week. Kick-off this week comes on Saturday at 12.30pm. Once all the games have been played, we’ll count up the scores and the winner(s) will be announced in the following weeks competition article.
Scoring –
Correct Score = 3 points
Correct result = 1 point
Correct First Game-week Goalscorer = 5pts
Points are awarded on an ‘either or’ basis, so you’ll either score 3 points or 1 point for a correct prediction, these are never added together for a 4 point score.
So just to recap all you need to do is copy and paste the fixtures from below, pop your score prediction on each and then tell us who you think will be the first goal scorer of the week. And that can be from any game regardless of your other predictions. Oh and if you say 1-0, you mean 1-0 to the home team. Not either team. Capiche?
Here are the fixtures, best of luck to you all!

Yeahhh highlight of the week!
Btw, I think I calculated that I got 16 points? Can I ask for a recount pls
coys9
Does the correct result means correct goal margin? If it is then it’s my bad
constantine
Correct result means Win/Loss/ Draw. Nothing to do with margin, i believe.

Ooooh, controversial! Time to get the Benny Hill music back out Matt and Rosco?
The Padster
Haha! Hopefully not too controversial, I was just bored in Hong Kong,
waiting for you all to wake up, so i thought i would check it out!
inittowinit
Well, somebody clearly needs to!
coys9
Thanks Padster! Haha you must be really bored!
coys9
Sorry guys, didn’t mean to be such a pain. Just thought I nailed some of the results so I counted my scores. I don’t normally do that every week lol!
Rosco77
Whilst I don’t personally take any responsibility for the input of data I can only apologise for this error!
The Additional 2 points also take you top of the table which will be updated above ( Sorry DenPerryDitIt)
Big congrats to COYS!!
inittowinit
Talk about hanging Matt out to dry
Rosco77
Haha i did a bit!! Sorry Matt it wasn’t meant to come over like that!
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
We told Matt to make sure he doesn’t have socks on for sex or when he counts the results for this competition so he doesn’t have trouble keeping up with people who score over 10 points. FFS!! Matt socks off!!
Matt
@Rosco :finger: haha @ COYS, sorry mate so many entries they start to all look the same so must have hit 1 instead of 3 I’ll triple check it next week but at least I didn’t give you 0 😉
coys9
No worries. Thanks Matt & Rosco!
