The below is the finish it appears. I don't know what they refer to when they say "pools", the main board or all the individual pools? Did you receive anyting from them Lindosfan and VS? Pete :cheers:

The 'prize' is having your status from previous pools posted under your profile (have a look at your new profile Lindos). I certainly didn't expect anything monetary, it's a free website and, as far as I'm concerned, a bit of fun.

Anyway I ended up second (well done Lindosfan), and in the top 100 for the F1 thingy. On their homepage Sportguru label it as 'bragging rights'. How I hate this new expression (oh heck, I think I bragged one sentence back :oops: ) - I heard it quite a few times when I was in the UK in April when my nephews were talking about football: Ipswich Town v. Norwich City.

I guess if there was money involved then the whole thing becomes far more competitive, and there'd possibly be the chance of some underhand tactics.

Congratulations to Lindosfan and Vital Spark on their success! Given the tight nature of the scoring system it was a very impressive winning margin.

And a big thanks to Pete for his excellent Captaincy throughout the season... now, whilst I await the new F1 season I can concentrate on the HHAD Fantasy Football league.. :cheers:

I was only kidding when I mentioned prizes. :cheers:
It was good fun and look forward to next year, I may even be able to watch a grand prix, did not see one this year, television here is crap.
First time I have had a woman chasing me for years :D :duck:
Just wish I was as lucky in IKTS.
