Results of note:
Of 120 points up for grabs from pre-season picks, I got the highest total with 60, followed by Detoxin with 45. Prof got the lowest with 25. I did the best in the top 6 picks, getting the top 3 in order. Detoxin was the only other person to get the top 2 correctly.
Paul was the only person to get the bottom 3, and even managed to list them in the correct order, though no bonus points for the order. The rest of us all got 2/3 but had faith in at least one promoted team staying up. Bit mixed on the team top scorer and assister picks. Only Texas and Prof didn't pick Saka for Arsenal top scorer while 4/6 of us went for Odegaard for assists. Only Kwlap made the odd choice of not picking Salah for Liverpool top scorer. Noone picked Palmer for Chelsea, but hardly surprising when he didn't even play for them at the start of the season.
We all had Haaland for golden boot. Noone got the first manager sacked, golden glove, player of the season or young player of the season. Manager of the season announced yesterday ended up deciding mine and Paul's end positions.
