OK so here we go, Last Man Standing is open for business. Rules: Every week you choose 1 team from the weekend fixtures of the Premier League and Championship. You choose your team by posting it in that weeks thread. If your chosen team wins, you're through to next weeks round. If it doesn't, you're OUT. Once you've chosen a team you can't choose it again. Teams must be chosen before their match kicks off. Last man standing wins a prize of a custom user title, and plenty of kudos. Any disputes, I will try to resolve amicably, but my decision will be final >. Please post your chosen week 1 team in this thread.
This weeks fixtures are: Saturday Arsenal v Hull City Manchester United v Watford Middlesbrough v Everton Stoke City v Crystal Palace Sunderland v Southampton West Ham United v West Bromwich Albion Liverpool v Tottenham Hotspur Aston Villa v Ipswich Town Brighton & Hove Albion v Burton Albion Derby County v Bristol City Fulham v Wigan Athletic Leeds United v Cardiff City Norwich City v Nottingham Forest Preston North End v Brentford Queens Park Rangers v Huddersfield Town Reading v Barnsley Rotherham United v Blackburn Rovers Wolverhampton Wanderers v Newcastle United Sunday Burnley v Chelsea Swansea City v Leicester City Monday Bournemouth v Manchester City

Villa please. P.S - What's a custom user title and why would anyone want one? I thought this was going to be for money.
Where it says International Team above your avatar it can be changed to an exclusive name. It is what all the kids want
In fact those people who have copied my vote this early seem suspicious to me, without a message from the seer I think we will have to view them tomorrow
The general feedback on the other thread was that people would like to play for fun and weren't bothered about a cash prize. However, I'll stick with my original promise of a tenner, but I have a cunning plan with what the winner needs to do with it. I'll post it up later in the week.
OK here's an idea for a prize. You each donate £1 by placing a £1 bet on the team you've chosen for week 1. If you go through to week 2 then you take your winnings from week 1 and place it all on your week 2 choice. And so on. Last man standing should win a nice few £ if you make it to the end. Obviously the initial stake is up to you, and as it's voluntary you don't even have to bet a penny, just play for the h*ll of it.
Yes, Brighton's the home banker. I like a good seagulling as much as the next man. BAHA For me please.
