Prediction record

Before every deadline we lock our predictions — the captain picks, hidden gems and £100m squad shown on this site, plus the expected points for every player — and publish the file. After the gameweek we score it. Good weeks and bad weeks stay up; nothing is edited or removed.

How to check we didn't cheat
  1. Download a gameweek's sealed file (.json). Its SHA-256 must match the fingerprint shown.
  2. Download the matching .ots proof. It anchors that fingerprint in the Bitcoin blockchain via OpenTimestamps, so it shows the file existed before the deadline — no one, including us, can backdate it.
  3. With the OpenTimestamps client: ots upgrade gw-06.json.ots, then ots verify gw-06.json.ots (the proof completes a few hours after sealing).

GW11 will be sealed automatically around Sat 21 Nov, 06:00 UTC, before the Sat 21 Nov, 11:00 UTC deadline.

The squad is redrafted from scratch every week — like a free wildcard each gameweek — so it has an advantage real teams don't. One gameweek is mostly noise; judge the record over many.
