What date does it start?

 

[ONEDUNME]

Brilliant start

 

[swooperman]

It starts monday Yorkie, as has only been mentioned 37 times

 

[Pete89]

What happens if no one wins any bets?

 

[swooperman]

Half point each & ridicule

 

[swooperman]

So its 50pnts on a 1.5 shot to start with then Pete

 

[Pete89]

Swoops, just had an Idea, in the event of a tie in week one, week 2 will be a reply for 2 pts? If it happens in week 2 then some sort of sudden death play off?

 

[ONEDUNME]

Or half a point each

 

[swooperman]

We're talking of a new draw for week 2 at the moment, or they are. If you tie its half a point, been covered somewhere. Think Ryder Cup
