Recommended Posts

  • Administrator

Across each match-day, there'll be 10 fixtures selected across the chosen leagues to predict on. See below for scoring system and other information.

Leagues included:

  • Italian Serie A
  • Spanish La Liga
  • MLS
  • Scottish Premier League
  • French Ligue 1
  • EFL (Championship/League One/League Two)
  • A-League
  • Dutch Eredivisie
  • Portuguese Primeira Liga
  • Brazilian Serie A
  • International fixtures (International breaks only)

***NEW STUFF***

WINNERS PRIZE:

  • Winners for this competition will receive a £25 Amazon Voucher. 

Promotion/Relegation:

  • Ideally there'll be enough participation and interest from members to have 2 divisions. The first part of the season will run from August to December. There will then be promotion/relegation spots decided before the second part of the season from January to May. Hopefully this will be an incentive for people to keep predicting consistently.

Points Rules:

3 points - 
A player will be awarded 3 points if he/she gets the result spot on. 

  • Example - Player X predicts Team A 3-1 Team B. Actual result is Team A 3-1 Team B

2 points - A player will be awarded 2 points if he/she gets the result correct AND goal-difference correct. 

  • Example - Player X predicts Team A 3-1 Team B. Actual result is Team A 4-2 Team B

1 point - A player will be awarded 1 point if he/she gets the result correct, but not the correct score or goal-difference

  • Example - Player X predicts Team A 3-1 Team B. Actual result is Team A 1-0 Team B

0 points - Players will be awarded no points if they get the result completely wrong.

  • Example - Player X predicts Team A 3-1 Team B. Actual result is Team A 1-2 Team B

 

Extra Points:

  • Participation Bonus - If you are on time and predict ALL results in the game-week, you get the full 5-point bonus. If you miss any amount of games in a game-week, you will only get 2 additional points. 
  • Any player who predicts FIVE correct results (predictions that are spot on) within one game-week, will be awarded an extra 7 points to their total score.

Table/Fixture Updates

  • Table and fixture updates will take place as soon as possible after the final fixture of the game-week has been completed. 
  • Fixture/Game-week Table threads - When each game-week begins, a thread will be pinned, to make it easier to locate when you enter this part of the forum. The same goes for the table updates. 

Consistent Predicting

  • As for not predicting here and now, I'll take a lenient side to it, as sometimes people have other commitments that require more attention than a prediction league on a football forum!
  • However, you can still PM me your predictions if you envisage you won't be able to predict for the next 1 or 2 weeks.

Conclusion

  • Enjoy it!! Don't take it too seriously. It's just a bit of fun and a good way to add a bit of competitiveness and enjoyment to the forum!
  • As this thread is locked, if anybody has any questions, please don't hesitate to send me a message. I'll answer as soon as possible to help you!

***Note for participants***

27 people stated interest. 24 people predicted for first week (currently in progress).

The divisional split will be determined by who predicted first. As 27 people entered, Division 1 will have 14 members and Division 2 will have 13 members.

As above, promotion and relegation spots will be decided after the final games in December. January-May will be the 2nd part of the season, per se. 

So, as per first predictions in Gameweek 1, Division 1 consists of:
@Pyfish
@Dan
@Teso dos Bichos
@Mel81x
@CaaC (John)
@Bluewolf
@SchalkeUK
@6666
@binder
@Spike
@RandoEFC
@Eco
@Viva la FCB
@londonerlilie

Division 2:
Me
@nudge
@Rucksackfranzose
@Raja1991
@Tommy
@SirBalon
@JOSHBRFC
@Harry
@...Dan
@Machado
@MUFC
@Drew
@Batard

 

If any new participants join, they will go in to Division 2. 

After the final gameweek in December, top two in Division 2 will replace bottom two in Division 1. In the event of a tie, most perfect scores will determine who finishes higher.

Any questions, PM me :)
