The next round of fixtures is next Saturday, 12th August, so the fixtures should be posted on Wednesday (like Notts, I don't do cups). Hopefully see you then! Feel free to insert complaints, banter and gloating messages below

Surely there’s some mistake @super_ram is above me. 
 

In fact most people are above me. 

Early days I’ll still win.

Im somehow above you and i just guessed and i dont even know what the joker part means yes i'm kinda new to this apart from finishing @GrannyPie's off last season. 

[Fan of Big Tone]

Well done @cheeky~k8 the joker doubles your score if you get points on the match. The trouble is my joker got 0 points so 2x0=0.

That's what Luke Williams is saying

[DangerousSausage]

@cheeky~k8 if you get the scoreline right that's 3 points, and the joker doubles it again. You got your joker, the Gateshead game, right, so that's 6 points on its own. Boreham Wood did you a big service by scoring in the 93rd minute!

I've spoken to the football gods and they've agreed to let me win this season @Fan of Big Tone. Just try not to finish bottom, otherwise I'll have to relegate you

[cheeky~k8]

Thanks both of you, i was just guessing scores but its works sometimes and not others obviously.

I think the first games are guess work for a lot of people because you don’t know how good teams are until a few games in when the table starts to take shape.

There's no certainty of results ,never mind scoreline all season.I agree it is harder to predict with so many unknown factors early season, but the unpredictable factor still remains. Just go back to last Saturday and how do you legislate for that awful backpass at Sutton, which ended with a sending off and a penalty.Things like that don't happen very often.Well on the same afternoon Derby's Bradley also made a backpass which resulted in an away goal.How can you forecast things like that?The prediction league is just for fun though(apart from  @Fan of Big Tone)

Yes it will be because what teams did last season may not be the same this season.

[liampie]

just beneath mid table, i will take that for the opening round.
