Ten minutes to go. 14 players haven't done their picks but looks like half of them have given up already.

Let's go everyone for the final round of the long season. Good luck to all! I will be hoping Liverpool to win their match. We just need a win to stay in top four.

I suck on those international matches. So I am going to skip captain!

Watching the fan chants at Anfield yet again is giving me great joy! Finally the last piece needed to bring football back to life is here!

Good luck fellas!

Good luck to everyone! I hope you've made better choices than I did because it's only been 25 minutes and Manchester City already scored two goals with Everton scoring zero. While predictable, it's not looking good for me Grin

As for other matches, I hope Leeds United, Leicester City, Newcastle and Manchester United keep leading. So far so good with these matches for me. What are you watching or are you, like me, trying to follow everything at once like crazy right now? Cheesy

^Only watching one match, Liverpool and after surviving 3 shots (thanks Alisson) from Palace with 1 super near miss, we finally piled on the pressure and got a well-deserved goal. Not the prettiest ever but Mane and I won't complain!

Things are looking up at HT but 45 mins still to go and both CBs got knocks on heads with cuts... so I hope they hold strong. Villa is pegging Chelski back by a goal, no surprise, but Kane got level with Leicester so Salah is going to be desperate to score to keep up.

My bet builder already hit on corners for Liverpool (over 5.5) and Corners for Palace (over 0.5) and needs 1 more for over 8.5. Also got leading at half time. Need:
- Salah to score
- Liverpool to win
- 2 more cards

But I won't care as long as we win.

And yes! Fan sounds back again, it's a start but I'm so happy!

We are going to Champions League! The end was well. It was not a good season over all for us. At the middle of the season we lost our focus. I would say there were too many injuries that costs us but anyway we finished at 3rd. City was always good and Utd was surprise to me.

It was a good season overall.

By the way, superbru is going to freeze for a while. Be patience 😉

Yep, today was the last day in Premier League and later on we will have last games in Spain and Italy. Would not be surprised if have to wait for tomorrow morning before using Superbru without lags.

Don't know why but my provider never shows multicast (or whatever it is called, all the games at the same time with live tables) for Premier League. They had it for Spain yesterday and it was much better experience to follow all the games simultaneously. This way I opted for Leicester and just checked other results after the game finished, at least it was a good game

Here we stand after the final round

Look at toma. He is 16 points ahead than the 2nd place. In the next season give him -16 to start the season LOL. This is a wrong place for this guy. Anyway, what I meant is congratulations Tome on winning 0.1 BTC. It's fucking a lot of money ðŸ˜‰

Congratulations to top ten users too. Thanks hilariousetc for hosting this prediction pool, also big thanks to sportsbet.io for sponsoring us. I still have not calamined my jersey LOL

I don't think that's the final table. Tomahawk was and still is 15 points clear before the round started so the table probably hasn't updated yet.

Congratulations to all the winners.As my first time I ended 24th just 22 points behind the 10th place which I consider a very good run for me.I hope and believe that will have the money to be in the next Pool Predictor in the Premier League as I liked this season very much.The only regret I have is not winning that yellow cap,I won it but it was divided with another user so I don't consider it a real win.Again congrats to the winners and see you in the next pool.

i also congratulate all the winners and tomahawk9 for his very good results throughout the season🍻
i personally participated for the first time and got the 14th place Cheesy

had a lot of fun and will definitely attack the first 10 places next season again💪

It wasn't usual and easy season. It wasn't easy to predict something, but it was so interesting. Congrats to @tomahawk - when you win pool by 15 points and lead almost whole season, it shows that you deserved it most. Also, congrats to all TOP 10 winners! It's only pity that crypto markets is all red in the end of season.
Personally for me it wasn't good season - 25th place after 6th last season is big downgrade. Also, was far from geetting yellow cap, but at least got free shirt from Sportsbet

. BTW, Did anyone counted how many unique yellow cap winners we have? I remember in first 15 rounds or sth we had all unique winners

I hope to see you all guys in August when new season will begin

I think it's called simulcast. It's great thing when you can't pick which game exactly you wan't to watch. Watched it yesterday on La Liga last round and now watching Ligue 1 simulcast. But I read somewhere that EPL contract with TV's don't allow such simulcasts.

Congrats to all the winners and especially to toma- what a performance. I am sure he was in the lead from day 1

Thanks also to hilariousandco for organising all this AGAIN and thanks to sportsbet.io for the sponsorship and all the great prizes

On a personal note no prize for me and no yellow cap , but I did manage to get from the bottom 3 at Christmas up to 18th - so - a small victory .
Looking forward to next season

congrats tomahawk and the rest that cashed. I came close to the money, wishing I did a little more research earlier in the season. Looking forward to next season. Thanks to hilarious and sportsbet for making this happen and Jeremy for convincing me to join.

cheers, lads!

congrats to all the winners!

Hope to see you all in the Euro 2021 pool and the Copa America pool during the summer, and obviously in the EPL pool next season

So has the table updated properly yet? I'm guessing it has but it said that it will be finalised today and states the last update was 23 May 19:30 but I'm not sure if that included the current round as they can be slow to update the table and tomahwak still had his 15 point lead from before the round started. Maybe it was just a coincidence though.

If the top 10 winners want to PM me their address once the board has been fully confirmed I'll get the payments out sometime this week. If your username is different here than on superbru PM me from both accounts.

I'll probably start the new PL pool sign up sometime this week as well though won't be taking in payments until nearer the start.

Congrats to all winners here. Also thanks to Sportsbet.io for their support.
certainly was a very weird season and many strange and unexpected results. I had too many misses ^{I hate some teams because of that} Roll Eyes

in the last couple of rounds I have significantly improved my points balance, but it's enough only for 12th place.
Yet finished the last round with a yellow cap ^{my first}, although it is not a big satisfaction.

I'll guess the table has been updated, Tomahawk 15 points lead before and after the round was just coincidental, I was third before the round and tomahawk had 16 ahead of me, but I finished 2nd after the and 1 more point than tomahawk for the round. That explains the point difference.

Congratulations to every other winner, It was really a tensed competition, I look forward to the next season. Big ups to Hilarious for being host and to sportsbet for the sponsorship.

Yeah, congratulations to tomahawk, you chose the best season to win this pool judging by the bitcoin price Cheesy

Well deserved, you led for so long & nobody ever really got close to catching you, superb performance really & well deserved. Also congratulations to the other winners!

I presume we’ll all be back next season

I was waiting for the official confirmation from Superbru before writing here, and I've received it today via email (although on the leaderboard page it still says the last update was on May 23). I'm very happy with my 5th place in this competition, and I'm definitely returning for the next season. Congrats to all the winners and best of luck to everyone for the next season.

Congratulations from my side as well, not just to tomahawk9 but to all the winners. I was actually really good throughout most of the season but first 6-7 rounds destroyed me, I think I was like 30 points off from the top 10 by then (was in the bottom 5).

Can't complain with my top 15 position after that I guess, looking forward to next season. When there are a lot of players, consistency is crucial.
