Sharpy's Wedding drams + Football Forecasts

From http://bvetsfootballgroup.blogspot.com/

With his son, Graeme, getting married today (Sunday), Ian thought this was an appropriate reason to buy a rake of drams in the Douglas on Friday night:

L-R: my brother-in-law, Brian Hanson; Ian McRae; Jeb Tyrie; Colin Kilgour; Steve Paterson; Ian Stewart & Ian Sharp.
Dave Williamson missed out as he had left to catch his bus back to Potarch prior to this.

Feedback on the format for the Football Forecasts for 2012-13 was fairly limited, but most seemed to generally prefer the status quo. I have, however, taken on board John McW's comments about omitting runners-up, and have instead replaced these in the European section with winners of two of Europe's premier domestic leagues - Germany and Spain.

The final line-up of 20 forecasts is therefore:

Scotland (7)  
SPL Winners
SPL Relegated
Div 1 Winners
Div 2 Winners
Div 3 Winners
League Cup Winners
Scottish Cup Winners
England (9)  
Premiership Winners
Premiership Relegated
Premiership Relegated
Premiership Relegated
Championship Winners
Division 1 Winners
Division 2 Winners
Carling Cup Winners
F.A. Cup Winners
Europe (4)  
Champions League Winners
Europa League Winners
Bundesliga Winners
La Liga Winners

Usual rules - £5 entry fee, with a maximum of 5 changes permitted at New Year (£1 each). Please let me have your entries by the end of August, if possible, together with your nominated charity.
