    Rules (I tried to keep this simple)

    Player Predictions

    1 point for each correct player in starting XI
    If all 11 players are correctly predicted, a :emoticon-0171-star: is also awarded.

    Result / Score Predictions

    1 point for a correct result prediction
    3 points and a :emoticon-0171-star: for a correct result and score prediction

    Points for player predictions & result / score predictions to be combined (see below).
    League position depends on total points, not the number of stars.

    The member with the highest score at the end of the season is Prediction League Champion :emoticon-0103-cool:
    The member with the most :emoticon-0171-star: by the end of the season is the Prediction Trophy Winner :emoticon-0165-muscl
    There might even be prizes... <gift>

    Members can predict on any first team game this season (League or Cup).

    Prediction Table (2 games played)
    Players ... Result / Score ... Total

    017 ................ 04 ................. 021 ..... Watameire :emoticon-0171-star:
    018 ................ 01 ................. 019 ..... The Penguin
    013 ................ 01 ................. 014 ..... Lardiman
    009 ................ 03 ................. 012 ..... PuttersCAFC :emoticon-0171-star:
    000 ................ 01 ................. 001 ..... Typical part 2
    000 ................ 00 ................. 000 ..... ElfsborgAddick

    With over 50 games a possibility, it's never too late to join in.
    And no need to predict all 11 players if you don't wish to. Any correctly predicted player wins a point, even from a partial prediction.
    And of course there's no obligation to play every round. Just a bit of fun after all...

    Result / Score predictions could also count in the league table,
    Maybe 1 point for a correct result prediction, 3 points (total) for getting the score right as well.

    Me neither - that's chiefly why the Sheriff wants my job <doh>

    But even a partial prediction would be OK for the league table.
    If any member doesn't feel confident about predicting all 11 players, just name four or five...
    Of whatever number you wish to.

    No obligation to predict,
    or to join in for every game.
    Just a bit of fun.


    All correct guesses will get a point, and no deductions for not guessing all 11.
    Though any member guessing all 11 players correctly may get a bonus. Possibly a :emoticon-0171-star:

    Then at the end of the season the member with most :emoticon-0171-star: wins the Prediction Trophy
    while the member with the most accumulated points becomes League Champion
    As they may not be one and the same person.

    I'm just making this up as I go along here <laugh>

    No idea, but I am predicting a comfortable 2-0 victory for Watford.

    This will be a wake up call and a realisation of what needs to be done to stay up.

    Apter
    Coventry
    Docherty
    Edwards
    Leaburn
    T. Campbell

    I'm not familiar enough with the positional strengths of each player to know how well balanced that team is.
    But I ought to get a few right.

    Would there be any enthusiasm for doing this regularly, and having a prediction table?

    That's the plan.

    I'll post a players / result / score prediction table at the top of this thread.
    After each game it will be updated.

    No obligation on members to predict for every game, but accumulated points will be shown for those who like to.
    If it catches on we'll carry it through to the end of the season.
