Hello - 1st week of the November league and the first round of the November cup - 16 of you have qualified for the cup competition that will run along side your league predictions. Each of you have further cup predictions to make and further details are below.. This is the 6th year of the Saints (not)606 prediction league - can you join previous season winners Saints Alive, Beddytare,Tottonsaint, Tom and kjhgfd34 as season champions Last weeks results here: http://www.not606.com/threads/not-606-this-weeks-fixtures.314600/page-2 Its just a bit of fun each week and you dont have to play each week. There will be a weekly winner and at the end of the month a league winner for the person scoring the most points in that month. For those really competitive ones and ones that can last the pace there will also be an end of season winner for the one who has accumulated the most points over the season. There is a 10.00 Saints gift token prize for the season winner. CHANGES Ever since season 1 of the prediction league I have made a change each year to freshen things up a bit including bringing in bonus goals, the joker and a gamble question and for those of you who have played before I have made a change this year. I have removed this year the gamble question and replaced it with a question 3 that allows you to be as brave as you feel. For example - name as many teams as you want from the weekends premier league and championship fixtures who will score 2 goals or more - You will get 2 points for each correct team you include but if you pick just 1 incorrect team you will lose all your points in that question. Therefore if you are not feeling too brave you may only select 1 or 2 teams that you are certain will do the job. However you could select 8 teams and you will get 2 points for each of those teams unless you pick a team that doest meet the question and you will score 0 points for Question 3. The joker feature stays and can only be played on correct score predictions and not for goalscorer. Put a (J) against your most confident prediction to double your points for that prediction. You will therefore pick up 6pts for an exact score, 2pts for correct result if correct on the fixture you chose SCORING Exact correct score = 3 points correct result (home win/away win/draw) = 1 point Play your Joker (J) on any score prediction to double pts scored for that prediction. correct goalscorer = 3pts Any goals scored in the Bonus match added to your total Question 3 correct team without incorrect team =2pt per correct team Goalscorers and other stats taken from BBC sport website HERE WE GO This week for you to copy and paste with your answer for scores Sunderland v Southampton Portsmouth v Macclesfield Norwich v Swansea Stoke v Chelsea Arsenal v Tottenham Feyenoord v Ajax other predictions 1.Name any one player to score for their team in any of the above 6 fixtures= 2.Bonus points - pick ONE game from the listed score prediction fixtures above and the total goals scored in that match will be added to your weekly/monthly total. = 3. Predict teams from the following premier league and championship fixtures that will WIN in the match they are playing. (Pick as many as you like - 2pts for each team correctly picked, BUT lose all these points if select an incorrect team) Bournemouth v Newcastle, Leicester v Watford, Man Utd v West Brom, Norwich v Swansea, Sunderland v Southampton, West Ham v Everton, Stoke v Chelsea, Huddersfield v Leeds, Blackburn v Brentford, Bolton v Bristol City, Brighton v MK Dons, Cardiff v Reading, Charlton v Sheff Wed, Fulham v Birmingham, Hull v Middlesbrough, QPR v Preston, Rotherham v Ipswich, Wolves v Burnley, Aston Villa v Man City, Arsenal v Tottenham, Liverpool v Crystal Palace -Results will be published by Monday evening. If scores are level at the end of the week there will be joint weekly winners. If at the end of the month there is a draw for the monthly title,there will be joint monthly winners. I WILL ALLOW POSTS TO BE EDITED EG. IF YOU PREDICT A GOALSCORER ON WEDNESDAY AND FIND OUT FRIDAY HE IS NOT PLAYING OR YOU CAN CHANGE A SCORE. HOWEVER ANY EDITS OF POST AFTER THE FIRST KICK OFF OF THE EARLIEST GAME WILL VOID ALL PREDICTIONS FOR THAT WEEK. GOALSCORER PREDICTIONS FOR LATE KICK OFFS/SUNDAY GAMES CAN BE CHANGED BY CREATING A NEW POST BUT THE SCORER MUST BE FROM THE ORIGINAL MATCH YOU HAD CHOSEN. YOU CANNOT CHANGE OR EDIT A QUESTION 3 ANSWER AFTER THE FIRST GAME IS UNDERWAY.

Someone else may get through on 4 points if they beat their opposition. There are 4 TEAMS and a goalscorer to pick and the skill is identifying who will score the most goals in games selected. There must be a winner in these matches as after the 1st week we will be down to 8 players, after the 2nd week down to 4, then 2 at the end of the 3rd week. The final 2 will go head to head in the 4th week. Therefore if you get the same points as your opponent there will be a penalty shoot out based firstly on who scored most points from their goalscorer, if after that it is still a draw then its which team scored most in your first listed team, if still level then most points from 2nd listed team and if still equal after that the winner will be the person who posted their predictions 1st. If you do not post any cup predictions your opponent will get a bye to the next week. If neither of you make predictions you will both be out and the best scoring loser from another game will go through. CUP GAMES CANNOT BE EDITED - ANY CHANGES PLEASE CREATE A NEW POST. Any postponements are just unlucky - if you know a game is postponed before kickoff and wish to make a change that is fine. If not a point (1 goal) will be given for the postponed team CUP GAME AND POINTS You should all choose FOUR (4) TEAMS from the 52 listed AND any 1 goalscorer from any of those 52 teams.

Every goal your goalscorer gets will add a point to your total - if its the first goal of the game 3 points will be given for that goal. (eg a 1st goal hatrick will score 5 pts) You MUST ALSO pick a Team for your opponent - the goals from that team will be added to your opponents total- List of teams - Bournemouth v Newcastle, Leicester v Watford, Man Utd v West Brom, Norwich v Swansea, Sunderland v Southampton, West Ham v Everton, Stoke v Chelsea, Huddersfield v Leeds, Blackburn v Brentford, Bolton v Bristol City, Brighton v MK Dons, Cardiff v Reading, Charlton v Sheff Wed, Fulham v Birmingham, Hull v Middlesbrough, QPR v Preston, Rotherham v Ipswich, Wolves v Burnley, Aston Villa v Man City, Arsenal v Tottenham, Liverpool v Crystal Palace, FC Twente v Heerenveen, NEC v De Graafschap, Willem II v Excelsior, Vitese v AZ Alkmaar, Feyenoord v Ajax Carefully select your Team 1 as the goals scored will be doubled towards your total to copy and paste Team 1, (goals scored will be doubled) = Team 2, = Team 3, = Team 4, = Team for opponent, = Goalscorer, =
