FOOTBALL TIPSTER COMPETITION 2019

Wheeey! How's ya doing, how's ya doing?  Happy New Year to everyone, in December way back last year I invited everyone to take part in the new season of the Football Tipster Competition. So whats new for this part of the season?

Most importantly we have new players, welcome, but as for the rules they will be much the same, except, instead of picking just the outcome of the 5 chosen games (HW, AW or D), you will now be required to predict the scoreline instead. Like Rolla's little impromptu competition, there will be awarded 3 points for the correct scoreline and 1 point for the correct outcome. The games are still head to head and a win will gain 3 points, 1 for a tie and 0 for a defeat. This is not finalised yet but maybe there will be bonus points for number of exact correct scores?? Any person who forgets to pick will have the wheel decide for them, but only whether the outcome will be (HW, AW or D) so they can only score a max of 5 in the given week, instead of 15 (5 correct exact scores). Fairer for those who do pick, but absentees don't miss out.

Other changes....Rolla has kindly given us the opportunity to win more by having 2 x  'PRIZE LEAGUES'  there will be a prize for the overall winner of both leagues, and also prizes for each person who does best each month in that given league, ie in February, March and April/May.

Finally, in the last gameweek on the 12th May, there will be a separate ' CHAMPIONS OF CHAMPIONS' week. To qualify you must either have won an end of season league or had 5 out of 5 correct predictions in a gameweek. So far only 3 people have achieved the full bag, them being Hotshots, Centipede and mmmm can't remember the other ? but it might have been Rolla??

 

I have 23? people who said they would play, but if now you can't, just say. I would like 26 players minimum if possible, so the fixtures work out best for me but i can cope with 28 or even 30 (2 leagues of 14/15). Those that played last time but have not said anything that I can find include @Sirbetsalot, @Poker, @Brownman24, @Denman @theWineLine @Devon Eagle and @Jakefraser94 but  no worries if you don't fancy another a bash or just taking time away from gambling and the TGC. Thanks for playing last time, it was much appreciated in order to get these things off the ground. So the 24 players so far are.....

@Solario333, @Rocknrolla, @MrUKHackz, @centipede, @Crunchienut, @RichieFC, @McSplooger, @1pstaker, @Blampy, main man @Miller26, founding father @david1111, @o0ORyaanO0o, @Garryboy001, @h0tsh0t87, @Marky147, @Markymark, @jollyman77, @Kinkerbells, @Mad Slasher McGurk, @VillaLad, @Jessr, @Lighty45 and @spursman ?

The fixture list won't take me 10 mins to produce but would like confirmation of any changes IN or OUT ASAP. (the original 23/24 are only have to say if they don't want to play) The games will start on Saturday 2nd FEB, the week after the Quarter Finals of the current TGC FA Cup. Well done Kinks if you got this far, but things had to be explained for our new guys.

Any changes, improvements and ideas for new games are always welcome. I'm toying with ones for The Masters Golf (for Me and Shades)  and maybe the World Snooker Champs in April, so watch this space... but there will definitely be an All Weather Horse Racing comp soon (for Poker and Miller) and then a bumper Cheltenham Festival one in March.

Much Love  Crunchie

PS I have also had thoughts how to incorporate a Competition around @Rocknrolla streams, whether it be slot and/or casino based predictions as i thought this would generate most interest for TGC based on its clientele, but still working on the logistics.....

marl lawrence on the bbc website does a similar format with a random celeb or sports person each week 

yes, similar to that. Try something different and see what peeps prefer. Thought it worked out better with the people who don't pick too. You think its better or worse??

It will all depend on spursman who I'm waiting to hear from, and if Miller has left again, after i done a racing comp for him....unless he is just taking a short break? You heard from him the past couple of days?

Miller mentioned other day he might take a break from tgc, not leaving so im sure he'll be back soon
