    Yeah, I'd be interested in taking part. Also there's one on foot.ie if you're registered there.

    Never registered but probably will. How is that done? 1 point for a correct result, 3 for an exact score?

    Do it on here.

    I can't register on foot.ie and to be honest there are a lot of muppets on there as well.

    I was also banned, three times.

    Granted, it was for saying pretty much what I said above.

    The pricks.

    In other news, how does this Prediction League work? I'm not clicking that link to find out, so can someone please explain, cheers.

    2 points for correct result (i.e. home win, draw, away win); 1 point for correct margin (i.e. home win by 2 goals, away win by 1, etc.); 1 point for correct score (i.e. Bohs scoring 3 goals, etc.). That gives 5 points for getting a game score right.

    Copied and pasted.

    Right heres the deal.

    We could make a thread per week, or just make a superthread for it where scores are totted up at the end of the week (I've no problem doing it).

    Predicting scores is gonna be hard I reckon.

    Just to avoid potential confusion, I'm assuming that if you get a result wrong but get a score right, you get one point.

    Eg - If I say Shels will win 2-1 and it ends up 2-2 do I get a point for predicting Shels would score two goals? Obviously I'd get no points for predicting the correct result or margin.

    Pighead would like to enter this but understands completely if you feel he's a bit too good at predicting stuff and would probably run away with it. If theres any objections post them up in the next 7 minutes. Otherwise i'm in.
