Prediction League The World Cup Prediction League

Obviously this needs to be run by someone who is committed to updating on a regular basis, and as Nev is on traffic duty most of the Summer at various sporting events, after his successful stint at the Tour De Yorkshire (see video) it has once again fallen on me. Musty was going to do it but he may not be allowed on the Premier League board after May, following last nights result for Swansea.

Rules
1 Scoring for matches: 5pts for correct score, 2pts for correct relative score, 1pt for correct result
2. Scoring for Group Positions: 3pts for every correct group position - just indicate 1, 2, 3 or 4 next to team name
3. Group positions need to be posted before the first game starts
4. Match scores can be posted anytime before the game starts and can be changed up to then as well.
5. Knockout matches will be posted on completion of group stages and points will increase as follows:
8pts - correct score, 4pts - correct relative score, 2pts - correct result. Result will be after extra time if it goes that far.
6. Predict the Winner: 30pts, Runner Up: 20pts, 3rd Place: 10pts - need this before competition starts

Russia to win it with Putin donning a replica shirt and lifting aloft the trophy surrounded by his team.

 

So is this for the Quatar World Cup? Think we'll need all the time between now and then to answer all of the questions!!!

 

TBH I'm not sure my scores actually match who I've put to come where in each group, I guess if the scores don't match to the end table results you could call it an insurance bet?

 

Not a problem. Games designed for ACS so insurance bets work.

 

Think you need time to learn to spell catarrh.

at least I have a month to ponder this (if I am allowed on the Prem League board )

 

How many entries can I have?
Can David Watts, be my insurance bet?

 

Thats Nostradamus- level predicting but knockout phase games will be posted ater group stages are completed. I will check this aswell though and if it wins will predict 3-1 for every game next season.

 

If Musty can enter his wife in competition as his insurance bet why not.

 

thing

thing is her inane tips beat me

 

Its the World Cup - the boys from your adopted country are in.
