    Hi all and welcome to the new prediction league for the 2025//26 season.

    The competition will follow the exact same format as previous seasons with weekly and monthly winners and at some point I will also introduce a cup competition to run each month. For those that can last the pace there will also be a season champion to whom I will present a £10 Saints gift voucher as first prize.


    This is week 1 and the first week of the August League.

    DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES IS BEFORE KICK-OFF OF THE FIRST GAME WHICH IS 12:30 ON SATURDAY 9 AUGUST.

    ** NOTE THE EARLY DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES **

    GAME 1
    -----------
    Predict the scores for the following 6 fixtures.

    Play your joker against your most confident prediction to double points

    Southampton v Wrexham
    Oxford v Portsmouth
    Middlesbrough v Swansea
    Norwich v Millwall
    QPR v Preston
    Stoke v Derby


    GAME 2 - 'home' team is listed first
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    a) Name any one player to score for their home team in any of the above fixtures

    b) Name any one player to score for their away team in any of the above fixtures


    GAME 3
    ------------
    Bonus points - pick ONE game from the 6 listed score prediction fixtures in Game 1 and the total goals scored in that match will be added to your weekly total



    SCORING & RULES
    --------------------------
    Game 1 - 3 points for each exact score prediction or 1 point for a correct result prediction (ie. home win, away win or draw). Play your joker against one of the fixtures to double your points for that fixture

    Game 2 - 2 points for a correct 'home' goalscorer and 3 points for a correct 'away' goalscorer

    Game 3 - goals scored in selected fixture will be added to your points total


    BONUS POINTS
    Game 1 - 3 bonus points for correctly predicting all 6 results (ie. home win, away win or draw). 2 bonus points for correctly predicting 2 or more exact scores

    Game 2 - 1 bonus point for correctly predicting both goalscorers

    Congrats to our winner this week @RSS with a very good 20 points :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Two players picked up correct score bonus points this week - RSS had 4 correct scores as he had Saints 2-1 win against Wrexham, Middlesbrough's 1-0 win against Swansea, Millwall's 2-1 win against Norwich and the 1-1 draw between QPR and Preston. ChilcoSaint had the Saints win and Stoke's 3-1 win against Derby.

    For the goalscorers, Sargent scored at home and Morris scored away. Nobody had both of those though so no bonus points.

    The best bonus game this week was Stoke-Derby with 4 goals and only ChilcoSaint picked that game.

    Don't think I've ever had 4 correct scores before! What tremendous luck to start the season. It's only going to get worse from here <laugh>

    Yeh, fair play, I think that may actually be a record as I think I have seen 3 correct scores a few times before but not 4 :emoticon-0100-smile
