How To Play
Around 24 hours before match kicks off a prediction thread will be posted for that match. On this thread, you just need to post your match prediction in the following format BEFORE kickoff
*NOTE* Unlike the normal Prediction League we need the scorers for BOTH SIDES

Point System
Points are awarded as follows
- Correct Result – 2 Points
- Correct Score - 3 Points
- Correct Scorer – 1 Point
Penalty Points. If you predict either side scoring 6 or more goals you will get a penalty of -1 for each incorrect scorer. This is to prevent abuse by naming all 11 starters as scorers for guaranteed points.
Knockout Round Scoring Amendements
As in the knockouts and matches can go to Extra Time and Penalties we have some amendments to the scoring for these matches.
- Your Result and Score predictions are based on the initial 90 minutes. So we can still predict a draw
- In the event of Extra Time, you can still gain goalscorer points.
- These will only be worth half a point however
- Goal Scorer points WILL NOT be available in a shoot-out

Rules
- Entering via multiple accounts is forbidden. If we catch you using multiple accounts they will all be disqualified
- Only entries made before kick-off will be accepted
- *Only one submission per user will be accepted per match. In the event of multiple submissions, we will use the last submission. If adjusting your entry we still suggest deleting previous submissions
- Don’t use players nicknames, only their surnames (If there are multiple players with the same surname then enter in the format of FirstName.Surname)

Qatar 0-0 Ecuador
Most drab World Cup opener in living memory…. -
Qatar 0 - 1 Ecuador
Valencia,
I’d be lying if I said I won’t have to spend half my time googling players for the first round robin of games -
Even without the whole controversy over things like Human rights though it does seem wrong at the moment. As Bruno said after the last United match by having it right before Christmas it means fewer people are off to enjoy it and get engrossed in it, especially kids. I know myself that while luckily most of my work is done from home the next month is usually some of my busiest time, not least so I can get everything out of the way so I can as much as possible take from Christmas and into the new year off so I'm either not going to be paying as much attention as I would normally to the matches or I'm going to have to work more between Christmas and New year. Summer is usually perfect as its a more quite time for work.
It's also ruined the Football season somewhat, we have seen players who clearly have been being more careful in matches not to get injured, and others who have seemingly extended their time out to stay uninjured and we have seen more than normal ruled out with injuries.
Gues with the likes of you as very few league 2 players have been called up it's not had that problem on the football side but having City and a world cup on most likely is a negative for the world cup as you focus on your club whereas I've not got that (Well apart from some friendlies the PL teams have organised for players who arent at the World Cup)

Something is puzzling me. Why do all the leaderboards say Qatar 2020 at the bottom?
Have we gone back in time?
