Reading 1-1 Stevenage HT
=====================

Stevenage to score first in First Half (28)

READING to WIN from Behind

Reading First Goal (42)
(EHIBXX, alt Carroll)
(Assist Carroll, alt Wing) <<<<<

EDIT (See Below)

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

SEQUENCE

Sequence means extra points if you get it right.
You can choose not to bother, up to you!



(28) Reading 0-1 Stevenage

(42) Reading 1-1 Stevenage
(EHIBXX, alt Carroll) (Assist Carroll, alt Wing)

======================================== HT

(86) Reading 2-1 Cheltenham
(WING, alt Savage) (Assist Vickers, alt Knibbs)



If you are predicting a win to nil or 0-0 or 1-1 and
thus not eligible for Correct Sequence Points
please put your Reading First Goal where I have shown it
highlighted by <<<<<<<<< above

FOR CLARITY, in the case of a Reading Penalty the "assister" will be the fouled player
Example, NGW was cut down for the penalty v Port Vale. Had we scored NGW gets assist.






This is an example, and not necessarily my prediction but
please use this as my prediction if I do not post otherwise

[Snowball]

PLEASE NOTE

Reminder: You can only get a sequence score if both sides score
and the total is three goals or more. So scores to nil are invalid
as is 1-1, but 2-1, 3-1, 3-2, 2-2 etc are fine.

SO if you are predicting 0-0, 1-0, 0-1, 1-1 or 2-0, 3-0, 4-0 etc
THERE IS NO NEED TO FILL IN THE SEQUENCE, EXCEPT FOR
YOUR SATISFACTION.

SECOND POINT

"FROM BEHIND" is teams coming back from a losing position.

Comebacks are rare, hence the bonus points.

THERE IS NO NEED TO POST "READING TO WIN FROM IN FRONT"
as this doesn't win prediction points

[Snowball]

The original purpose of “extreme predictions” scoring was to punish crazy 5-0, 6-0 “jokes”


As things stand (ATM) ALL those predicting a one-goal win for RDG are technically “extreme and liable for a -3 if RDG draw or lose.

This will change if someone predicts a RDG 2-0 or 3-1 win (and RDG don’t win) but otherwise I am loathe to take 3 points off all bar two Nobbers.

Thoughts?

[Snowball]

AND, as things stand, if RDG win then the two 1-1 predictions would be “extreme”

and that is bonkers

Perhaps extreme is 2+ goals different to other predictions
(or scrap the rule as we're a sensible bunch of players)

[Snowball]

Sensible?

This is Nobberland!

[Snowball]

Remember that most extreme gets a big reward also

So predict 1-0 HT 2-0 FT and STVG win you lose 3, but if you’re right you can get 5+5+3 and 1, 2 or 5 and maybe scorer and correct time

40 points

It’s nice when people are BRAVE

(Me and Franc going for the win at Millwall, for example)

but no fun if people start posting truly wild scores like 0-7
