    Here is my first Premiership table prediction comp.

    Just predict the league positions for end of 2017-18 season.
    All entrants must be in by 23:59 pm 4th August. No entries allowed after this or edits.

    Correct position gets awarded the following

    1st = 15 pts
    2nd = 12 pts
    3rd = 10 pts
    4th = 9 pts
    5th = 8 pts
    6th = 7 pts
    7th = 6 pts
    8th = 5 pts
    9th = 4 pts
    10th = 3 pts
    11th = 2 pts
    12th = 1 pt

    Prizes will be as follows

    1st) 1.5 billion vs
    2nd) 1 billion vs
    3rd) 750 million vs
    4th) 500 million vs
    5th) 250 million vs
    6th) 150 million vs
    7th) 125 million vs
    8th) 100 million vs
    9th) 75 million vs
    10th) 50 million vs
    11th) 25 million vs
    12th) 10 million vs
    13th) 5 million vs
    14th) 4 million vs
    15th) 3 million vs
    16th) 2 million vs
    17th) 1 million vs
    18th) 500,000 vs
    19th) 250,000 vs
    20th) 125,000 vs

    Bonus of 1 billion vs if winning entrant gets top 3 teams correct
    Bonus of 10 billion vs if winning entrant gets top 6 teams correct

    This means that the winner of the comp can get a possible total prize of 12 billion vs.

    Shouldnt really need to but teams are as follows

    Celtic
    Aberdeen
    Sevco
    Hearts
    Hibs
    Dundee
    Hamilton
    Kilmarnock
    St Johnstone
    Motherwell
    Partick
    Ross County

    Think Aberdeen are on the decline. Hayes, McGinn, Jack and McInnes (potentially) going will hit them hard. Hibs have made some smart signings already and have a good gaffer in Lenny, will need to replace Cummings though, Stokes or Boyce would do the job. Huns will improve, I feel, but not enough to mount a serious challenge.

    Hearts could finish higher depending on the Cathro situation.

    Can't see Partick repeating their form from this year.

    If McInnes leaves Aberdeen, I suspect they won't finish as highly though and may gift the huns second place
