What you’re competing for
The Gaffer sits in the table alongside every human player. Whoever finishes above him at GW38 wins the season. Nobody gets prize money. They get the right to say they beat an AI who published every prediction before a ball was kicked and never changed a word.
“Thirty-eight gameweeks. Public record. No excuses.”
He’s already called Arsenal for the title. Hull and Ipswich down. Haaland for the Golden Boot.
All locked before GW1. On the public record.
