I can assure you all, I haven't hacked into the BBC servers to place myself top, I promise! Fantastic starts also, for Stags with a whopping 140, and Mangek and zxawxc with 130 (how are you pronouncing that doug?). With 9 players in total scoring centuries on the first week, the competition is going to be stiff! And absolutely no one is out of it, if we wrote off guys who got off to bad starts last year, and handed out trophies to the guys who started well... well we didn't thankfully! Anything can happen! | P |

I almost forgot, I've been inundated with emails, phone calls, PMs, texts all asking me the same question.... "So Stan, what is this special new feature you are adding, go on, tell me, I'll do anything!?!".
So it gives me great pleasure to announce a secondary competition, where whoever gets the highest weekly score in anyone given week at the end of the season takes the prize. I'm naming this "The Stanley Cup". This means absolutely anyone can win it right up till the final week.
Only rounds where there are 10 games or less will qualify for this leaderboard.
The highest weekly scores so far:
150 Stan.the.Man 140 staggerstag 130 Allelia 130 zxawxc 110 Painbow 110 sdm3 100 Weststigersbob
Okay, it looks a lot like the normal league table at the moment, but that will change. I'll eventually make it a top 10.
The record last season was set at 200. I think 220/240 is definitely possible this year. Theoretically 400 is the maximum... but good luck with that!

Thought I had 70 but predicted a Watford win and Everton draw instead. Lawro got 120. This game used to be called the "Can you beat Lawro" game years ago. Believe it or not I actually won it one year

That Fr. Jack fella only getting 60 points in week 1?
That's outrageous, he was a contender last season.

There should be a 'Runie Cup'
For the first person to score a 0 week, then pull the 'I forgot to predict last week lads' excuse😉

Pogba goal screwed me out of 40 pts but I'll be happy to average 100 pts a week.
Tottenham V Chelsea could be tasty.

No one in this league is averaging 100 points by the end of the season. I predict the winner will finish with about 3500 points tops. That's about a 92 point average. Tbh, I think 3400 might be enough, which is an 89 point average. As for Tottenham v Chelsea, tough to call all things considering. Could be a home win, maybe a draw, or could be an away win...

You won an entire BBC competition, or was this an IMDb thing? Not an entire BBC one.  It was just about 20 of us on the old board around 2010ish. I still can't believe to this day I won. It may have been a year with many 1-1's. I thought I might have saved the table from back then but I couldn't find it.

I'm gonna take a flyer on this, and say they're not going to sue me. Besides this is more important, this actually means something.
Another thing I neglected to mention is the following players will not be eligible to win The Stanley Cup. (Due to not being IMDB2 members)
FCMini who_ru Woody's Wonders Mulder&Scully Dirty-Barry
Not that they were going to win it anyway, but if they want credit, they'll have to make an account and say hello.
