A sheep, a werewolf and a walrus walk into a bar.

The Premier League Last man Standing will start in conjunction with the start of the PL season.

Each week you pick ONE team to win their match. If they win, you are through to the next round to pick again. If they lose or draw, you are out. What's makes Last Man Standing interesting is you cannot pick the same team twice, so it's all about strategy!

After we have a winner we will reset and ask posters to "in" again

Chat all you want, maybe taunt other posters into selecting a specific team.

Please make your picks in red

Picks can be changed up until 1 hour and 15 mins before the first match of the game week, this stops posters from waiting until they see the team sheets before selecting.

The first set of fixtures are :
Friday 13 August
20:00 Brentford v Arsenal
Saturday 14 August
12:30 Man Utd v Leeds
Burnley v Brighton
Chelsea v Crystal Palace
Everton v Southampton
Leicester v Wolves
Watford v Aston Villa
17:30 Norwich v Liverpool
Sunday 15 August
14:00 Newcastle v West Ham
16:30 Spurs v Man City

Mods not reading threads, great start

I'll probably go with Aston Villa this week but may change closer to kick off

Tempted to get Arsenal out of the way and fail horrifically badly on the first game of the entire season tbh...

I've gotta go with Wolves!

Going to run through the big teams quickly to try to get a few weeks in safely.

Chelsea

Hahahaha
I will actually go with Arsenal because it's the only game I can see us winning in the first 3-4 weeks

So @Neowise asked me to rand his selection, so I did that and he got Man Utd. Obviously he can change himself before the deadline if he wishes

Well drilled? You must have missed the United friendly during the week

Chelsea

Another vote for Chelsea here

Good stuff, I've edited the table above to reflect that.

I've edited your posts also to change the colour to red, just to distinguish between selections and chat etc..

I'll try to remember to do that next week, assuming Chelsea don't screw up.  That said, I will be cheering for Crystal Palace in that game, I hate Chelsea

Yeah, I was going for the Liam Brady approach of doing no research whatsoever and trotting out a few clichés I'd heard elsewhere to try to sound knowledgeable

Haven't seen any pre-season, not even Liverpool's, I don't really have a clue what's going on!

Just to check, I don't have to actually watch any football? Right? RIGHT?!

I don't think it's compulsory, but if you don't you'll definitely jinx your team

The more jinxing that goes on the better is what I say

Updated table, with plenty plucking for Chelsea in the first round. Just @osh & @ShaneU left to pick, but plenty of time to select or change your mind

Edit: Sawduck added

If Chelsea lose, the field is going to be slashed in half pretty quickly, lol

Anyone knocked out can continue playing if they wish and I'll throw them into a seperate table

I'll go liverpool

Chelsea for me
