English Football 2015-16 - Leicester City won the league - Page 1175 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Arsenal were favourites when they beat city.

West brom price to go down is tempting. Difficult run before games against norwich / sunderland with spurs / city away to follow. Plus they have trouble shooting.

markt thinks they are horrible btw, barely a fav at home to swanz and solid dog vs loltoon. problem is they already have quite a lot of pts

also the fact that the manager and most of the squad clearly hate their best player is problematic

Yes I think bournemouth and swansea will sneak past but can't trust two of toon/sunderland/norwich.

rooting hard for Pulis and Toon to join Villa in the championship. Nothing against geordie fans, who I mostly like, but fat ashley has to be relegated.

Pretty sure, even while Arsenal lead early on and for a few weeks, they were never favourites in gerrard falls over season.

having a striker who can run behind. Gabby can be frustrating but i love him when hes in the mood. Hopefully he keeps it up. Annoying ayew got sent off other day as i think them two could work quite well

Definitely too late to attempt to sell another 50, so we'll go with double squares and a £500 prize pool.
£62.50 first quarter
£125 half time
£62.50 3rd quarter
£250 final score

If either of the 3 who haven't confirmed/paid yet don't want their squares, please let me know asap. If you do, time to pay up! Draw will be made as soon as all £500 is booked and received.

so der markt reduced city's o/u by what you'd expect given that they got 0 pts when you'd expect them to get 2.2, but leicester got a 3.5 pts bump after that game despite only getting 2.4 pts over expectation.

basically, unless there's another variable i'm not considering, der markt was so impressed with their performance at the emptihad that they got an extra point+ out of thin air.

i didnt expect any such large performance based shifts so late in the season but here we are. foxes continue to confuse and confound.

£10 = $14.51 in USD (so 2 shares would be $29.02) according to the Stars client, and sending in USD is absolutely fine.

If you'd prefer to pass your shares to someone else, that's also fine. You were only provisionally booked, so there's no commitment!

Hey guys, what's the best site for English football stats? For example, I want to be able to click on a particular club, and see their finishing positions in the league for their history. Wikipedia doesn't quite have this

I think this is bull**** to be honest. Geordie fans are the absolute worst. Obviously it's good when bad things happen to Mike Ashley, but they're a match made in heaven.

Click on any given team and (among other things) it'll show a graph of their current season's standings by matchday. On top are a few tabs. Click the one that says "Erfolge" to see the graph you're looking for. It's interactive, too. Clicking on it will take you to that year's season.

Other than that, I can recommend https://www.whoscored.com/ for all sorts of other in depth stats.
