And the Flutter winner is...

Cape Town - Editor Garrin Lambley has squeezed out victory in the season-long English Premiership Footy Tips feature put out every campaign by Sport24.

The three-horse race was almost as “thrilling” as the actual finish on Sunday to the season, with Manchester City scoring twice in stoppage time to come from behind against QPR and edge out fierce rivals and neighbours United to the title.

Our tipster challenge in 2011/12 featured Lambley, chief writer Rob Houwing (last year’s champ) and former staffer David Brooke: three points are given for every wholly correct scoreline and one for right result.

The tightness of the forecasting was reflected in all three pundits getting into the “260s” on the scoreboard: Garrin ended on 268 points, David on 265 and Rob on 260.
