TAN footy game - Last Man Standing

As long as it’s at the beginning of a tourney they can. Next one would be a good time, as I said most people will still be on 0 or 1 point so you wouldn’t be starting at much if any deficit.

I’ll take the greatest strike force in the history of football this week: Kane and Son (sounds like a funeral director, come to think of it) to propel Spurs to victory over Brighton.

As @cynicaloldgit has chosen spurs, can I still choose spurs?

If not, and I feel dirty for saying this: scum to beat the arse

Yep, you can choose Spurs also. However, I’ll now need to ask you and @cynicaloldgit to pick a second team as a tie-breaker in the event that Spurs don’t win.

Try to make it a different one from each other :joy:

At least @Iftikhar has already chosen Spurs in a previous round :grimacing:

I’m going to say no, but if it comes to it being needed you can select them again as your primary team in a future round.

In that case, my tie-breaker team is Manchester City.

Do you need a tie breaker?

If Spurs win they both pick again don’t they?

If they lose they are both out

i am thinking there doesn’t need to be a winner, its ‘Last Man Standing’ so to be a winner there has to be 1 person left. Then just keep a track of winners over the course of the year in a ‘winners club’ League table if you like.

If you do it with reserve picks or a points system you are not picking a winner, you are picking ‘least shit’, should that be recognised ha ha

At least that way it makes it more appealing to new members or people joining in later, a year from now you might only have 5-6 people in the ‘Winners Club’ some only on 1 win. so it makes it achievable to get on the board

It’s so if Iftikhar’s team also goes out then we can - hopefully - decide which of the three remaining players was the winner prior to beginning again.

I still like the idea of a league table. If it doesn’t work it doesn’t work, but let’s see.

To minimise your admin on this, could you setup google forms or similar? Otherwise you’re trawling through posts to get everybody’s teams? Or just a dedicated “team post only” thread?

Erm, it’s been fine so far honestly, but if we get a lot of new players in for future rounds I may look into something like that.

@Trader unless you say otherwise, I’ve put your tiebreaker down as Man Utd as you mentioned them initially.

Thanks for heads up. Apparently I have picked, unknowingly though, from tonight’s game :smiley: .
