Whilst searching around the net looking for relevant resources for my plan to predict football matches, I came across The Sports Exchange. It looks like a relatively new web site, but seems very nice.
I posted a comment in their blog (about football pools prediction), and received a number of replies. The blog entry can be seen here.
You might want to have a look at the various American college football rankings (aka BCS) systems. One great site to look at is masseyratings.com. Massey is one of the BCS computer model. His website does a great job of aggregating the various modeling methods.
Excellent – thank you.

this guy lets you download his league table sheets for free been looking at your blogs as i was/am interested in using neural networks as a prediction for UK football now how he makes these sheets he wont share as their quite good an its his hobby but he has a deduction column on them an thought it might help
you might have all ready addressed this but you could add a column for deducting points with a condition not to implement them till the last day off the season another site ive found useful is http://www.olbg.com
oh an after thought the more i look into this the more i realise i don’t know/understand most of my work was done in excel an anything ive used in them i got from a web site what i need to do is start learning how to write programmes can you recommend any papers/sites i could look at as a beginner in this thanks Paul
