Premiership Plus Predictions Game!

After the roaring success of our LOB World Cup Predictions Game, I've decided to initiate another similar game for the upcoming English domestic season. What I need from all of you to get started is your choices in the following categories:

* Champions (8 pts)
* Champions League Qualifiers (i.e., #s 2-4 in EPL) (3 points each plus a bonus point for correct order)
* Potential Europa League Qualifiers (i.e., #s 5-7 in EPL) (2 points each plus bonus point for correct order)
* Relegated sides (2 points each plus bonus point for correct order)
* Promoted sides from Championship (2 points each plus bonus point for correct order)
* Carling Cup winner (6 points)
* FA Cup winner (8 points)
* CL Winner (10 points)
* Premiership top scorer (6 points)

If you've got any suggestions for additional categories or think the points are not quite right, let me know.

With O'Neill's resignation today may I please change my Europa League qualifier from Villa to Liverpool?

Wow, quite the shock.

Absolutely, Someone. Even though the Football League has started, I'm still collecting predictions until the end of the week in order to get as many participants as we can involved. I've now got you down for these Europa League picks: Everton, Liverpool, Citeh (i.e. Everton in 5th, Pool in 6th, Citeh in 7th). Does that sound right for you?

Cheers, Simon. Btw, I am counting the Championship side that wins the playoff final as the third promoted side. You know, Marlon Harewood probably has a better shot than Rooney at the Golden Boot. Wazza seems to have forgotten how to play the game.
