For our first LMS cycle, it was overwhelming to get 83 entrants. The buzz was crazy, with some taking it extremely seriously. It turned out to be a wild LMS ride with lots of upsets, meaning lots of casualties in the first few weeks.

As the remaining participants decreased after every round, it ended up with Harry Brown, Charles Sait, and Tim Dixon in the final 3. Harry bowed out leaving Charles and Time to battle it out for the crown of Last Man Standing…. BUT….. neither of them held their nerve and both lost as Brighton and Liverpool respectively.

“What does this mean????” I hear you say…..

In the words of the national lottery…. IT’S A ROLLOVER!!!

“What does this mean????” I hear you say…..

This means the pot gets rolled over into the next cycle, meaning you can buy into the next cycle with a pot already in place. It will be £10 for any of the 83 who participated in our first cycle and £20 for any new entrant buy-ins. It’s the dream outcome for most as at the moment, no one has won. I would guess that the pot for cycle 2 will be in the region of £2000, that would do very nicely for anyone indeed.

As the Premier League season has only 4 games left, we will be starting the new cycle at the beginning of the 21/22 season. We will ramp up the advertising of the new LMS cycle nearer the time so you have the opportunity to enter.

I want to thank all that participated in cycle 1. It’s always the case when starting something whether you get the interest, and in this case that certainly happened so thank you!!!
