    Ok,time to put this up.Anybody who has been around the last few years will know the drill but in case the newbies don't know the rules are as follows

    Heres the deal....

    1.Each Monday evening Hammer Archer or myself will post up the fixtures for the coming week and by Tuesday or Wednesday we'll have the league table of posters and points for the previous week just gone.

    2.Late comers will be accepted but points will be forfeited for any games missed.

    3.Predictions will be accepted and valid by 12 noon on the day of the games.Should a poster miss this deadline,points will be forfeited.If a poster does miss this deadline,the poster can appeal via PM but where the poster PMs or submits predictions after the stated throw in of the game,there will be no room for appeal.

    Eg Galway v Dublin at 2pm.Late predictions and appeals not accepted after 2pm

    4.The points system I am using has a twist to it.You get 2 points for predicting the winner of the game.Should a poster predict within 2 points of the winning margin,that poster will receive 1 bonus point.Should a poster predict a draw,the poster will receive 3 points and where a poster predicts a team to win but the result is a draw,the poster wil get 1 point ONLY if the poster has predicted a winning margin of no more than 2 points.Needless to say if you predict a team to win and they lose you get no points.

    5.Bonus points will be awarded at the end of the league for predicting the correct teams who get promoted and relegated respectfully.More points will be available on prediction of the winner of the league finals.You get 2 points for each correct prediction for promotion,relegation and league champion.Needless to say,if you predict Kildare and Tyrone to gain promotion from Division 2,there is no use in predicting against them too much.

    6.Posters must predict promotions/relegations in their first post with their first round of predictions.I will provide the league tables to aid in decision making.

    7.The only change this year is that to cut out a lot of wasted time, should a poster miss two rounds of the league predictions proper, that poster will be eliminated from the pools. Exceptions can be made in the case a poster forgets to post where there are only Division 4 fixtures on a particular weekend as most years a certain amount of posters get caught out by this.


    Let the games begin.
