Hi Ollie, a suggestion for you. If you want to accommodate the disappointed posters who haven't made the 40 cut off point, I would be willing to pitch in and help you out. They could be put in Division 4 or whatever and I would compile the results there for you. Anyway let me know what you think?

Lilywhite that sounds good. You could set up it up on another forum because it could get too messy on here. You could call it division 3.

Sound Ollie. I'll do that. Do you know how many have posters haven't made it? Maybe a maximum of 15 then for Division 3. I'll set up on a different forum as you suggest and the posters who haven't made the other divisions will be put in Division 3. If there are less than 15 then I'll take new applicants until we reach 15.

Lilywhite you are probably better setting up a new forum and invite posters who are interested in doing it.

downredhand, you are welcome to join the newly created Division 3 for those who didn't make the other divisions. Just post your predictions on the new thread: League Predictions 2017. HS Division 3.

Reformation you can post your predictions to the new Division 3 thread which was created for those who didn't get into the higher divisions.

Ollie has division 2 divided into 2A and 2B. If he wants to make them Division 2 and 3 then Division 3 could be made into Division 4. However now that Division 3 has been set up it might cause confusion with posters wondering whether they are in Dvv 3 or 4.

Replying To OLLIE:  "Lads and Lassies due to the huge amount of interest in this years competition I can only do the first forty posters who posted their predictions first. I am sorry that I can not do everyone but I would be all week doing it and it is bad enough as it is. In the first division there are 14 posters. These are the 14 who either competed in division one or two last year and completed to the last day of the season. These posters are: Mes Amis, Whammo 86, Rocky.Road, Monaghan08, Richeq, Byanthon, Lilywhite1, OhtobeaRossie, Ollie, Seadog54, S Goldrick, MuckrossHead, Lockjaw and Spinx. The bottom three will be relegated.

In the second division there are 26 posters and these will be split in to two sections with 13 in each. Division 2a and 2b. These are the posters who are new to it this year or took part last year but did not complete it for one reason or another. The first 13 posters that predicted are in 2a and the next are in 2b. The 13 posters in 2a are: Wayno1, Samuraiblue, Royaldunne, Baldybadger, Malonemagic, Cuckoosinging, Supersub15, Ceefarr, Jackthedub, Catch22, Festinog, Brolly and AverageJoe. The posters in 2b are Cavan Slasher, The Fridge, Exiled CuCu, Bennybunny, LetsgoSligo, MonaghanGlory, Ulster83, Carlovia, Dubsfan28, Seamy Hendrix, Greenandred, Meathforsam09 and Fifty. The top three in each section will be promoted. If your name is not down I am sorry but you did not make it.

The league is just for the 7 rounds. The division finals are not included. It is 2 points for a win and 5 points for a draw. If two posters or more are level on points come the end of the season scoring averages will be used. This will be their highest score added to the lowest score and it will be divided by 2. If it is still level the posters will go head to head against each in the Division one to four finals. If there is still a tie well then both posters will be joined winners. Everyone double check the scores and let the fun begin."
Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond Hoganstand I have been unable to get my predictions up until I went to today then seen this message. Ah well - I would only have gone and won it anyway so can understand why you didn't want me in the competition....
