I've resurrected the Predictions and Survivor games, the winner of the Predictions League, will win a Sheffield United shirt of their choosing for the 2026/27 season! (delivery to UK, if outside, delivery contribution may be required 
). The winner of Survivor, well we'll see, nothing promised

What is Predictions?
I'm sure this needs little introduction to most people with an interest in football/sports, on a weekly basis, each player will be presented with the list of fixtures where they will attempt to choose a correct outcome for that fixture (home win, away win or draw). If your predicted outcome comes to fruition, you get a correct prediction, the winner of the league is the player with the most correct predictions at the end of the season. I've also added some manual tie-breaker questions this season, to make it more interesting in the event of ties.
What is Survivor?
Unlike the Prediction League where you attempt to pick a winner (or indeed a draw) for each fixture, in Survivor you only pick ONE team that you think will win its match during that particular round of fixtures. Also know as "Last Man Standing", many of you may be familiar with the premise.
Sounds easy enough? Well, to make it a little more challenging, you can only pick a given team ONCE during that entire competition.
Rather than running on points and a league table, Survivor works on a three strikes basis. You get a strike each time your pick is incorrect. Once you are on three strikes, you are eliminated from the game. The winner is the last person left in the game (or multiple people if the season finishes with multiple survivors - in this instance, we'll run "tie-breakers"). Depending on how long it takes to get a winner, we may run follow up pools.
