    I have rather rashly volunteered to do this competition until the end of the year at least.

    Having given it a full 30 seconds of thought, it will be a similar dap to PGF's last season. The league table will be slightly different though.

    Rules
    1. Only one entry per poster per month
    2. Predict the number of points gained and goals scored by Swansea City AFC in the games shown on the thread. These will include all Championship games and possibly some FA Cup games. League Cup games won't be included.
    3. Entries must be made by the kick-off time of the first game in each calendar month. Predictions received after this deadline will not count and you may still be charged. There will be no exceptions whatever your miserable excuse <laugh>
    4. In the event of a game being postponed or abandoned, I don't know what will happen (yet).
    5. Entries should be made simply as 'X' points and 'Y' goals where 'X' and 'Y' shall be integers of your own choosing.
    6. Scoring of points: Any person predicting the correct number of points gained will score 5 points. Any person who predicts 1 point more or less than the correct number (+ or -) will score 3 points. Any person who predicts 2 points more or less than the correct number (+ or -) will score 1 point. The same scoring system will apply to goals scored.
    7. A league table will be produced at the end of each calendar month.
    8. You can appeal against any errors made on my part <laugh>

    August games

    Saturday 3rd August Hull (H) 3pm
    Saturday 10th August Derby (A) 3pm
    Saturday 17th August Preston (H) 3pm
    Wednesday 21st August QPR (A) 7:45pm
    Sunday 25th August Birmingham (H) 12:00pm
    Saturday 31st August Leeds (A) 3pm

    Do NOT include the League Cup game v. Northampton

    Good luck!

    Thanks for stepping up.

    Now... point 1 seems to indicate that we must predict all the games in one go now? Or will this thread trundle on with game by game predictions? If we're only allowed "Only one entry per poster per month" then Taff is screwed. And so am I <laugh>
