Some of you may have been swept by the new craze called Last Man Standing. It's raised a fair bit of cash for amateur teams recently. For those who don't know about it, it's very simple...

Everyone enters a tenner. Half goes to the winner and half to whatever you are fundraising for. In this case, I suggest one of the charitable initiatives connected to Hibs.

Every week all who have entered pick a team from the English Premier League (or we could do SPFL and Championship, whichever people prefer). If that team wins you are through to the next round but if they don't you are out.

You can select whoever you like but once you have picked a team you cannot pick them again (unless every available team has been picked).

We would have a thread each week in which you'd pick your team. We would email a link to all players when it becomes live.

It's great fun, has a decent prize so becomes competitive near the end and raises money for a good cause. It's great fun for a few of the family to play too.

If you want to play stick your name (and any family members) down below and if the response is good I'm happy to do all the admin needed to run it.

So if we had started this weekend, everyone who picked Chelsea and Man City would be out?

But if you had hose Stoke you'd get another choice next were?

Yeah, if we'd started this week there'd be so many out. Was like that on first week of the season... Arsenal beaten by West Ham, Chelsea drawing with Swansea, etc.

Will set the deadline as Monday coming (14th) to express an interest. If we get 50+ by then will get the show on the road for that week.

Is it £10 per week?

What happens if you pick a team and your game is postponed?

Good point about games postponed. Will need to look into that.

And as said before, it's just one payment.
