jimbaxters Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) In an effort to generate a bit more interest in this section of the forum, I wonder if anyone would be interested in a prediction competition. There was a previous poster a few years back who started one which worked well but it would need at least 20 entrants to work I reckon. Would any of you good people be interested? If there's enough interest I'll give more details. ETA- have I said "interest" enough? Edited August 18, 2022 by jimbaxters 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theesel1994 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 That brings back memories of eGroups which then became Yahoo Groups - a mailing list before forums became a thing. I ran a similar competition on there. That must be going back 20 years or so. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbaxters Posted August 19, 2022 Author Share Posted August 19, 2022 Thanks to all who are replying. The format will be six matches per weekend to predict the correct score on. In normal league weeks it will be two fixtures from Prem and at least one from the other three divisions and one other interesting match on the card. Cup games will be included as they come up. I will reach out to the site owner to find out how we can potentially set up a prize, even if it's an entry fee and winner takes all. Not sure if that's allowed but will see how it goes. All those who have replied are in already. Anyone else, give us a shout. Cheers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbaxters Posted August 21, 2022 Author Share Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) Right, contacted the site owner and we can do a winner takes all entry fee if we want. He's even offered to contribute to the pot! Do we want to do that or just play for fun? Tenner a skull maybe? Will go with the majority.

jimbaxters Posted August 21, 2022 Author Share Posted August 21, 2022 Should have added, P&B will hold on to the pot for us, not me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbaxters Posted August 22, 2022 Author Share Posted August 22, 2022 11 entrants so far (assuming @theesel1994 is in?). Hoping for a few more so we can get it started this week. Don't want to assume everyone is ok with a tenner entry fee so please let me know what you think please @Darvel legend @Shannon @Kenny*******Powers @funky monkey @Inzaghi @dagane @beith19 Does anyone know where I can get a clear, concise list of fixtures for each week? The WoSFL website gives me a headache and doesn't provide such a seemingly complicated thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
