Starting new threads does generate more posts per topic.  That's why I created the separate Champions League topics for the big games.  I know what Jason is thinking though.  Merging it keeps things more organized and the activity isn't high enough for so many threads, plus it pushes down the overall popular topics.

I still think it's better to have some individual topics. Not a lot, but certainly some for the big games.  Say Man U plays Man City end of season which will most likely decide the season... then we should probably start a new thread for the game instead of using this topic.  It's just proven that you get more responses in separate threads for big events because as LIS said, people go into more detail instead of having their brain wonder to the next topic.

For something like the Premier League, it really has to be 1 main topic and maybe(I emphasize maybe) topics for very big  games. This thread had 0 posts in it before the topics were merged. If  they weren't merged, it's very likely both threads would have died before too long. I was personally against the separate threads for the Champions League, but that definitely makes more sense for separation. Especially with  the current CL format, the talk will be entirely about 2 games per week. Also, in most cases in the Prem, the talk will be mainly about big games. Unfortunately, the smaller games are the ones that will be overlooked, but they also probably don't have enough interests for their own thread either.

Chelsea/QPR put your money on 4.5+ goals. I can smell it.

I have to agree with LIS. Now, I agree City are firm favorites, but Stoke are a strong and somewhat underrated team in my opinion. They get kind of a bad rep for their almost barbaric style, but it has worked year after year. You can never just assume they will lose. They can very much surprise you.
