The man himself tells you below how to enter.
********************************************
I don`t know if you are like me? Are you watching the bottom of the Premier League wondering if Bolton Wanderers and Blackburn Rovers will survive? As the end of the season is approaching quite quickly, here is a free to enter Competition with a Burnley Football Club related prize for the winner:
How to enter:
Select your teams to finish 18th, 19th and 20th in the Premier League and add how many points they will have. The points they finish on will only be used to determine the winner if more than one entry has the correct order, so your entry should look like this:-
18th Man Utd 31 points
19th Man City 30 points
20th Liverpool 27 points
So post your entry below please, one entry per user.

Sounds a bit of fun and the prize looks like it might be a goodun!! ;-) I will donate the prize should I win . Predictions to follow
turfmanphil
The three relegation places will come from QPR, Rovers, Wolves, Bolton and Wigan. I looked at all the remaining fixtures and without bias added the number of points, I thought they would get in each case! Not sure I liked the result because both Rovers and Bolton survive on 31 points each with Bolton below Rovers on goal difference. The bottom three therefore are QPR 30 points, Wigan 28 points and Wolves 25 points! Ouch!!
The factor that could change this is the new manager at Wolves but we shall see. They have a terrible run in though and still have to play Man U (H), Arsenal (H), Man City (H). QPR's even worse with Liverpool (H), Arsenal (H), Man U (A), Spurs (H), Chelsea (A) and finally Man C (A) [Edited by turfmanphil]

Wigan - 31 points, Bolton, 33 points, Wolves 34 points

Bolton - 28 points, Wigan 31 points, Wolves 34 points relegated on goal difference. It would be remiss of me not to enter but if I win (some hope) I will donate the prize to 2nd place.
VinRogue
I think it will be race to see who can be the worst team but here is how they will be relegated into the Championship.
Wolves 36 points
Bolton 32 points
Wigan 28 Points
QPR and Blackburn will hang on by a thread and stay up
claretfromaway
Wolves 33 Bolton 32 Wigan 31 Simple pity I think jammy Rovers will escape hope I am wrong.

Will have a think about it before Saturday, if I triangulate the teams I think are going to be there, divided by the teams they play, I should be on a sure fire winner :/

Nobody has been brave enough to put Deadwood down for relegation. Wolves are favourites with Bolton 2nd favourites at the moment, all could change with a few more entries lol.
VinRogue
Was thinking the same VR - I have to admit that from what I have seen, Rovers look a reasonable side at times - Bolton & Wigan both look poor though.
Claretdale
I can't believe Nobody has dared suggest Blackburn will be relegated, proof of our eternal minority complex. Though I don't disagree they'll probably spawn it, I am delighted to be the first to predict their downfall. If they don't go down this season, they probably never will !!
Bolton 34, Blackburn 32, Wigan 32. Cue unconfined joy.
cubanclaret
Wigan 29, Bolton 30, Blackburn 31.....Wolves and Q.P.R will be inspired by a new manager, Kean is a Claret ;)
8clarets8
wigan 30, bolton 31, wolves 31 although I would pay money to see blackburn go down, I think they will stay up on goal difference. The way this season has gone I can see it being very close come the last day of the season. Burnley to buy eagles and mears back from bolton during the transfer window for 1m in the summer when the pair of them realise the error of their ways lol you heard it here first :-)
