Euro 2016 prediction league

Featured Replies

Posted

To keep us all entertained over the next few weeks I'm thinking of holding a prediction league for Euro 16 here.

There are prediction sites out there, but IMO it'd be a shame to take it away from PON. So instead I'm going to steal @weymouthPIE's format and give it a couple of tweaks.

For the group stage I'll select six matches from each round of fixtures in the group stage and post them a couple of days before they start - so the first round of group games (10-14 June) will be posted on 8 June, the second lot (15-18 June) will be posted on 13 June, etc. For every knockout round, all ties will be posted a couple of days before they kick off. At the end of each round I'll post the current standings. Banter / claims that it's a fix are welcome.

Obviously it'd be better if you posted your predictions before the matches start. If you're late, I'll only include the matches that haven't kicked off at the time of posting.

The scoring system will be the same: three points for the right score, one for the right result and in each round up to the final you can nominate one JOKER, which is counted double. As games are often tight in the knock-out stages and to keep things simple, a penalty shoot-out win will be treated as an extra goal for the winning team. So if England draw 1-1 and lose on penalties, it's treated as a 1-2 defeat. To add some extra spice, the final is counted triple.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd like to hear them! The prize will be honour, pride and a hairy chip I found down the back of the sofa yesterday. It's just a bit of fun, so get involved!

Well the tournament hasn't started yet, @notts-joe and @ohstanleyaborah, so it's all up for grabs. Of course it isn't a fix. But I've awarded myself 1,000,000 points to start off with, so you'll have to catch up with me first. :thumbsup:

Forgive me but you said it was Euro 2015, so I assumed it already had. :rolleyes:
