I am hoping to run this competition again this year. I have contacted the Admins and it looks as though it's a go from them. For the past few years we (Wolves) have been in the Championship and those taking part have been with Championship clubs. This season however, I'll try and attract lads from the Premiership and if those still in the Championship wish to take part, of course they will be more than welcome. Not sure how to grab the attention of more than 6 other teams. Maybe the Admins could help with that.
Only Premiership matches will be included, so no Cup games or Internationals. Most weeks it will include all 10 matches played over any weekend. I anticipate at least 38 rounds.
Prize money for the first three at the top of the table come May:-
1st...50 quid Amazon certificates
2nd...25 quid. "
3rd...10 quid. "
So for new and current participants in the HC League, here are the rules:-
They are very simple, just select your predictions for each round and post them.
Here is points system for this competition:-
Correct score:-
Draw 6 points, Away win 5 points, Home win 4 points
Correct result:-
Draw 3 points, Away win 2 points, Home win 1 point
10 jokers are available for the whole season and can be used at any time during the 38 rounds. MAXIMUM amount of jokers for any round will be restricted to up to 3. Correct scores will be x3 points and correct results x2 points when jokers are used. Example:- Arsenal v Manchester City, result 1-1. Those who have predicted that score get 6 points. If used with a joker 18 points (x3) Those who predicted the correct result i.e. 2-2 get 3 points. If used with a joker 6 points (x2)
At the end of each month, the player/s with the most correct results for that month will be awarded 10 bonus points. Those with the second highest correct results 5 points and those with the third highest 2 points.
If any poster thinks he'll miss a round or two (i.e. vacation etc) then I'm willing to post the rounds they'll be away, in advance, thus they won't miss any.
I hope you're all enjoying the summer break, so roll up all those who wish to participate.
I SHALL POST THE FIRST SET OF MATCHES SHORTLY AFTER THE START OF AUGUST. (If I have sufficient numbers.)
