I like to check back at the end of the EPL season to see how well we did at predicting stuff. Call it an accountability thing or call it a competitive thing. Either way, here is a handy dandy table showing the final results plus how we predicted them:
| ACTUAL | Hippo | Litre | Balls |
| Man City | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Arsenal | 4 | 5 | 6 |
| Man U | 7 | 7 | 8 |
| Newcastle | 8 | 6 | 7 |
| Liverpool | 3 | 2 | 2 |
| Brighton | 11 | 15 | 12 |
| Aston Villa | 13 | 12 | 9 |
| Tottenham | 2 | 3 | 3 |
| Brentford | 17 | 16 | 14 |
| Fulham | 15 | 20 | 16 |
| Crystal Palace | 10 | 13 | 17 |
| Chelsea | 5 | 4 | 5 |
| Wolves | 9 | 17 | 10 |
| West Ham | 6 | 10 | 4 |
| Bournemouth | 16 | 19 | 15 |
| Nottingham | 20 | 9 | 20 |
| Everton | 19 | 11 | 18 |
| Leicester | 14 | 8 | 11 |
| Leeds | 18 | 17 | 19 |
| Southampton | 12 | 18 | 13 |
As you can see, we all picked the champion of the league and little else.
I did pick two others in their exact positions (Bournemouth and Leeds, shown in green bold italics) while Litre did pick Southampton and Hippo did pick Leeds to be relegated (shown in light blue italics).
If you add up the total differences in the predicciones versus actuals, it looks like this: Hippo: 81, Litre: 97, Balls: 84.
So I guess I win this imaginary competition that I just created in my head?
And, with that, we bid a fond farewell to the 2022-23 English Premier League season. Only a few of more years until Wrexham joins the party!
