Last December, Some People Are On The Pitch brought you a seasonal series called 'The 12 Graphs of
Christmas'. By our own modest standards it was rather successful and prompted many of you to send
us some lovely comments which we were very grateful for.
Now, hot on the heels of that series, we give you more of the same.
After a very long and hard work, we are proud to announce that the new version of SL Predictor
is up and running, offering a new experience for our members.
For the past couple of football season we tried to make all necessary adjustments to make SL
Predictor a fun Virtual Betting Site combining the fun elements of football betting with the
competitive elements of not only beating the bookie – but also proving your wits and superiority
over the rest of SL Predictor members.
It's Day 2 of our Advent Calendar and today, in a nod towards last year's 'Twelve Graphs of
Christmas' series, we bring you a graph showing the number of hat-tricks scored in the Premier
League since its inception.
As you can see, there have already been seven hat-tricks scored this season (up to December 2nd
2009*) and strangely the same teams keep cropping up - Hull twice, Liverpool twice, Portsmouth
twice, Tottenham three times (and Defoe twice), Burnley twice, Wigan twice.
For Day 10 of the SPAOTP Advent Calendar, it's a welcome return to some old friends that helped us
convey our 12 Graphs of Christmas last year.
This year, they're back to illustrate how many American players are currently plying their trade in
the top flight of five of the big European leagues.
It's Day 20 of our Advent Calendar and behind today's door is another of our famous Christmas
graphs (famous in our tiny imaginations at least).
It shows the proportion of penalties scored by the home and away teams in all Premier League
matches so far in the 2009/10 season (including the two scored today in the match between West Ham
and Chelsea).
