Technically still a few teams on the list not played so could pick a few of them but as you say the leaders are looking well clear.

Still these to pick from -

1. 7.5mts - Liverpool Celtic,
2. 8mtrs - Spurs,
3. 8.5mtrs - Man City, Chelsea.
4. 9mtrs - West Ham,
5. 9.5mtrs - Newcastle,
6. 10mtrs - West Brom,
7. 10.5mtrs -Leeds,.
8. 11mtrs - Man Utd, Everton
9. 11.5mtrs - Crystal Palace,
10. 12mtrs - Fulham, Dundee Utd,

So the Finale next weekend with a chance to make (or lose) some good points -
Thanks to all for giving this a go :thumbup:
Was going to say "may the best man win" but think I'm too far back ;)

Round Ten - 1500 metres
For the weekend Fri 10th to Mon 13th March Select up to a maximum of 15 teams to win.
You can select from the following Leagues -
Premier League
Championship
League One
League Two
Irish Premiership
Australian A League

Its anticipated you should be able to run the 1500 metres in 5 mins.
That equates to 20sec per each 100 metres.
Each team you select represents 100mtrs of the race
For each goal any of your your team wins by you will knock 1.5secs off your time
(eg, team wins 3-0 or 4-1 would save you 4.5sec)
That is up to a maximum of 5 goals (7.5sec)
However if any teams lose you will get 1.5sec added for each goal they lose by (up to 5).
If a team draws then nothing is added or taken from your estimated time.
You also have the option of selecting less than 15 teams so wont gain time or lose time in that instance, its your option.
