    The entry fee is £15 – £5 will go to the prize pot, £5 to the hosting costs and £5 towards sponsoring a player for next season.
    As usual, cash prizes are on offer for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place.

    You can enter via the Paypal donate button below or you can also email me if you would prefer to enter via a different method.
    Absolutely no rush on this, but opening a little earlier so we have more players to pick from. We will pick a player via a vote on here.

    I have set the PayPal donate button so that you can donate any amount, so anybody that is keen to chip in for the sponsorship but doesn’t want to take part in the Prediction League can do so. If you can add a note on the donation page just to let me know if you’d like to enter the prediction league or how you would like your donation to be split that would be much appreciated!

    I will pin this thread and add a list of all those that have donated below with tally of how much has been raised so far.

    Thank you for your continued support!

    How much are the winnings for 3rd place Matt?

    Could I use £15 from that for this year’s entry?

    Hi Matt.

    Great news. Will do the usual way. Cheers. Bring it on NLN perhaps my sometimes optimistic and some of sheer bravado may actually come good.

    Sounds promising. Certainly hope some of the missing return as they were missed.

    Just to say again this is to help the admin of this Fans Forum, being totally independent. All site users are really valued, hope you value Matts hard work. I certainly do.

    Had a busy week but promise to tally up over the weekend.

    I dont think we are there just yet in terms of shirt sponsorships, but I’ll ask SUFC for a list of players available after the next batch of signings and we can put it to a vote. Hilton said there are three more in for medicals this Friday so hopefully we will have plenty of players to choose from!

    BTW – all 2022/23 winnings have been paid. Toney informed me that he is donating his winnings to the Alzheimer’s Society. Well done that man!

    No home kits left, away & 3rd only. Prefer sponsored shirt(s) to be a regular starter. Scales/Evans maybe?

    SST How much are we short?
    I’m sure some of us who have already paid will chip in again to make up the difference if needed

    Will do a full count today.

    Callum Roberts’ shirt is available if we would like to go for that, but would need to confirm with the club today as they have a lot of interest. Prices as below:

    Home – £200 + vat
    Away – £125 + vat
    Third – £125 + vat

    Can stick a bit more in if the email alert didn’t result in hitting the target amount.

    I will check up at some point today but we are definitely close to the £200 mark now. I have covered the VAT amount and cleared the invoice so it is all confirmed.

    Wonder if Mr Roberts will phone to say thanks, like Whitehall did for his sponsor?
