Hello, first week of the final month for the 3 week May league to bring another eventful season to an end. As usual there will be a bumper selection on the final weekend. Now the normal cup competition has come to an end, there is a new game to play for those that want too as a separate competition to the league game. POINTLESS CUP (any resemblance to any other game show with a similar name is purely co-incidental) With just 3 weeks left to go the normal monthly cup competition has come to an end and so for the next few weeks have introduced a new cup competition - THE POINTLESS CUP. Its open to all. Each week you just have to pick 3 teams from a list of fixtures and you are picking teams that will score the fewest goals - ideally 0. So thats 3 teams a week for the next 3 weeks and the lowest scorer will be the pointless champion. If there is a draw at the end of 3 weeks there will be a tie break and the person with the most pointless selections will win. If still level there will be joint winners. If you only enter 2 teams or you dont post 1 week you will score 3pts for each team you have not entered. Just a reminder that you can edit league posts right up to kick off of the first game. You are allowed to make changes after the first match has kicked off but you need to create a new post and not edit your original one (see rules) Last weeks results here: http://www.not606.com/threads/not606-this-weeks-fixtures.327523/page-2 SCORING Exact correct score = 3 points correct result (home win/away win/draw) = 1 point Play your Joker (J) on any score prediction to double pts scored for that prediction. correct goalscorer = 3pts Any goals scored in the Bonus match added to your total Question 3 correct team without incorrect team =2pt per correct team Goalscorers and other stats taken from BBC sport website HERE WE GO This week for you to copy and paste with your answer for scores Southampton v Man City Hartlepool v Portsmouth Man Utd v Leicester Newcastle v Crystal Palace West Brom v West Ham Locomotiv Moscow v Spartak Moscow other predictions 1.Name any one player to score for their team in any of the above 6 fixtures= 2.Bonus points - pick ONE game from the listed score prediction fixtures above and the total goals scored in that match will be added to your weekly/monthly total= 3.
