Quick question: How many points do you get for each team you predict to be in the top 6 but isn't. If I predict Norwich to get 64 points and they do get 64 points but are 7th what happens?
================================================== The answer is in the main intro to the game.: Only 1 RULE this season – the 6th placed team you forecast MUST be 70 points or MORE. (Average 6th place team over many seasons is around 73/74pts)
OK but is there any penalty for the team not being in the top 6. If someone predicts the top 6 teams correctly with an overall points difference of say 18 do I still beat them if only 4 of my teams are in the top 6 but my point difference is only 17? So it doesn't actually matter where they come as long as I predict that they get 70 points or more?
The winner is the team who has the lowest SCORE of points away from their prediction. If you predict say Blackburn to get 72 points and they get 56 you score 16pts (a big penalty) The winner nearly always has around 4 or 5 teams in the top 6. Winning score in past has been between 24 and 46 pts. Scoring is simple to follow. Lets see your entry !!
Mr Wolves-White 1. Newc... 106 2. ASTV... 95 3. Wolv.... 88 4. Sheff... 80 5. Brig... 75 6. Leed... 73
Millwall not making the top 6 then no mukka although I do rate our chances slightly better than yours
