Guess the score and scorer Watford v Bristol City @ Vicarage Road. Saturday September 22nd 2012.... k.o. 15.00 Historically we do quite well at Watford- now might be a good time to play them before the Zola magic kicks in. ***1 point for guessing the result Watford v Bristol City eg Watford win / draw / Bristol City win ***5 points for guessing the exact score eg 2-0, 1-1, 1-3 ***5 points for identifying each Bristol City goalscorer- Entries to be in with any edits before kick-off of the actual game. I've decided to include the guess the score / scorer on the same thread as results for the last match- hope this is clearer. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Current table after Peterboro v Bristol City result Peterborough 1 Bristol City 2 (Baldock x 2) Should have been P'boro 8 Bristol City 11 -number of players completing the game. but an important win for City-anything but a win would have been a grave injustice. Congrats to wings-of-a-crow, RedorDead, brookksyboy, premorbust for predicting the 1-2 score, all 6 pts, and to shiny, tigerwolf, algenon, RedorDead, Jambo, Massive, brookksyboy, manxrobin and BCFCRed who all nominated Sam Baldock as scorer.-all 5 points. Thank you for your support to everyone who has taken part thus far- it 's not too late to join in. A few predictors have not posted for a few weeks but I'll still include you on the table. This weeks big movers and brookksyboy but RedorDead but premorbust is still hanging on to no 1 spot...... And here is the current table after 7 games...... premorbust......................22 Massive...........................20 RedorDead.......................17 Shiny..............................17 Robinunreliant..................16 algenon...........................15 redmaid...........................15 brookksyboy.....................14 BCFCRed..........................14 manxrobin........................13 brightRedRickster...............12 tigerwolf...........................12 Jambo..............................11 smhbcfc............................11 caldicotcider Red...............10 angelic..............................9 Red robin...........................9 wings-of-a-crow..................8 Ashton Matt........................8 johngalley..........................7 wiz...................................7 supcon72...........................6 banksy..............................6 BCFCdotcom.......................2 cidered abroad....................2 National N1........................1 bcfcredandwhite..................0 Lhiats
Watford 3-3 BCFC - Baldock, Woolford,Albert I'm cheating here a bit manx if I'm honest. I expect a draw and don't really think it will be 3 each but this way it gives me more chance of getting the scorer if it turns out to be 1-1 (which is more like the score I'm expecting). So a tactical vote from the Devon jury!
Hi Robin unreliant- wondered when someone would spot that flaw in the rules- last season I predicted Bristol City 10 Barnsley 0 -nominating every outfield player to score...but wiz wouldn't have any of it. Neither would he accept my claim for no scorer for 5 points in a game when Bristol City didn't score v Hull I think. Perhaps I should weight the points, so that you get 10 points for predicting the exact score- which would be easier to manage than knocking points off for incorrect scorers or suchlike. what do you think.
Hi Red Robin- can only find your prediction for City v Blackburn- can't find a prediction v Peterboro
***1 point for guessing the result Watford v Bristol City eg Watford win / draw / Bristol City win ***5 points for guessing the exact score eg 2-0, 1-1, 1-3 ***5 points for identifying each Bristol City goalscorer Well I have just once been a bit blaisie about the score but forthe rest entered in the spirit of the thing !!!! You have 3 chances to guess the result so really 1 pt could fair for guessing the correct score eg win lose or draw 1-0, 0-1, 0-0 up to 2 goals you have 2-0, 0-2,1-1, 0-0 etc etc so 5 points reasonable 10 more like it goal scorer is manipulative, average goals in a game is around 3 throughout the season so the maximum number of players to have nominated are 3 here 5 points would be fair. Maybe a bonus of 10 points if you say BCFC 1 goal 2 goal 3 goal and get it right...............Watford 2 BCFC 2 TAYLOR STEAD you say result Watford 1 BCFC 2 stead baldock would equal = 1pt for the win 0 pt not result... 5pts stead plus bonus of 10 as BCFC SCORED 2 goals Above 3 goals ( 1 and upwards all goals count, name 3 and stead only gets 3 he gets 15 pts if you said BCFC 3 -0 correct score ETC he gets 45pts ) if one of your nominated scored 2 or more would count as a scorer with relative bonus if applicable sounds complicated but is not really Basically name 3 against Watford...(Stead Taylor Baldock)..........irrespective of forcasted score result 0 - 2 Taylor Skuse.... selection is Watford 1 - BCFC 3 Taylor Baldock stead .... so no bonus as incorrect score but 5 points for the goal scorer result 0 - 2 Taylor Skuse....selection is Watford 0 - BCFC 2 Stead Skuse ...... so skuse gets 5 pts plus bonus of 10 as city scored forcast goals with 2 names scorers result 0 - 5 Taylor2 Skuse, Baldock, Adomah..........selection is Watford 0 BCFC 3 Taylor baldock pearson...... taylor gets 10pts Baldock 5 pts no bonus wrong forcst score
