FIRST POST OF THE NEW YEAR.....

2011-01-10T17:23:00.002Z

It's the first post of the year, so Happy New Year to all players, and tykf would like to wish you all a healthy and prosperous 2011.

With so many matches called off during the Christmas/New Year period prediction questions have been completed in dribs and drabs, so here is a brief review of what has happened recently in our prediction game.

Unfortunately the bonus question for December had to be postponed due to the bad weather, and along with November's bonus question it will be rescheduled in the coming months.

Question 4 of Section A has nearly been completed with the only outstanding outcome being in Scottish Division 2. Premiership players involved in this question saw Manchester City become the first team to score 4 goals after Christmas Day, with QPR-Southampton-Cheltenham-Forest Green-Rangers-Dunfermline and Arbroath following suit in their respective leagues.

Manchester City were correctly chosen by 4 players with the most popular choice being Chelsea and Spurs just ahead of Man United. The four players who went for City were: Smudgy(Blackpool)-Tiler99(Wigan)-MaineRoadDan(Man City)-DodoSCFC(Stoke City) and they all collect 6 points. In the Championship the most popular choice were Middlesboro' who were chosen by 14 players, followed by Nott'm Forest selected by 9. QPR who scored 4 first were chosen by just 3 players,Spider(Coventry)-Canaryjoe(Norwich)-Bladestunner(Sheff Utd) so well done to those three who also scored 6 points.

In League 1 the most popular prediction was Huddersfield with Sheff Wednesday and Scunthorpe also being fairly popular, but the correct selection of Southampton was only chosen by 2 players,TheLeg-end(Charlton)-OllieOwl(Sheff.Weds). There were no correct choices in either League 2 or the Blue Sq Bet Premiership were the most chosen teams were Chesterfield and Wimbledon, Luton and Wrexham. The closest to a points score in the Blue Square league was MorganHarrier(Kidderminster) who in selecting Mansfield only just missed out.Although Mansfield scored 5 at Cambridge, Forest Green scored their 4 quicker and so took the plaudits.

In Scotland predictably the Old Firm dominated the choices in the SPL with 9 players going for Celtic, and 8 for Rangers who were in fact first to hit 4 goals. The following is a list of the 8 players who all score 6 points: Buddiedan(St.Mirren)-Spence(Hibs)-StevieMFC(Motherwell)-TheBIGgee(Rangers)-DavieSB91(Rangers)-TezzaRFC(Rangers)-TeenageKicks(Hibs)-Adam21(Ham.Accies). In the 1st Division it was Dunfermline who took the award after hitting 5 past local rivals Cowdenbeath.Most selected teams were Dundee and Falkirk. 3 players NormB(Raith)-Strov(Dundee)-Eastendparky(Dunfermline)all scored 6 points by choosing the 'Pars'. Arbroath scored 4 goals first after Christmas Day in Division 3 and not one of our players in this division selected them, the most chosen teams were Berwick and East Stirling.

Question 6 in this section was completed on New Years Day, and a breakdown of what happened follows in the next post........

NEW BONUS QUESTION

2010-12-12T15:31:00.002Z

The Bonus Question for December is now playable and with a total of 25 points available it's a good chance for players to get themselves amongst the leading pack in this season's game.The questions are all based on games that take place on Boxing Day, so when playing make sure you select teams that are playing....just about all of them are, so it should not be too difficult.

Please visit the thinkyouknowfootball website to play.

SEASON WELL UNDER WAY....

2010-11-28T22:06:00.002Z

This seasons competition is now well under way and 12 questions have already been completed. The 1st Bonus Question, the one for November, was due to be completed today, however due to the adverse weather conditions in Scotland the game between Queen of the South and Ross County in the Final of the Alba Challenge Cup was cancelled. When the game is rearranged the Bonus Question for November will be re-set.

Two questions were completed this weekend both in Section B, questions 14 and 15. Dimitar Berbatov's amazing performance for Manchester United against Blackburn at Old Trafford saw him leapfrog Carlos Tevez to become the 1st NON British player to score 10 Premiership league goals this season. This outcome was predicted by only 5 players :mls1870(Stranraer)/Murph(Stirling Albion)/Ryan(Raith Rovers)/The Leg-End(Charlton) and Stoker 89(Bradford) so well done to them all.Most popular choice was Didier Drogba , followed by Carlos Tevez,Tim Cahill,and Robin Van Persie.

The other question concerning the number of league goals that Brighton would score in November caught most players out as due to Cup football, Brighton only played 2 league games in which they scored just 3 goals. This answer was predicted by three players : Martc(Morton)/Strov(Dundee)/and Restandbethankful(Morton) with the latter 2 players gaining their first points.

The Leaderboards will be updated in a couple of days...

The Bonus Question for December will be posted here and on the website on December 12 2010.

2010-08-29T17:28:00.002+01:00

Following yesterday's Blue Square Premier game between Tamworth and Luton,another question(B 2) was completed, with the rather surprising result being 3-1 to Tamworth. Only 2 players predicted that Tamworth would be the first team to beat Luton in the league, Eastendparker(Dunfermline) and Heady(Bath City), so well done to them both.

Another question will be decided this coming Friday,after which the Leaderboard will be updated.

THE FIRST LEADERBOARD

2010-08-23T19:48:00.003+01:00

With 4 questions completed so far in this seasons competition, the first Leaderboard(of sorts) is now in place, and 7 players share joint top position after they all correctly predicted 3 out of the 4 opening questions.

Not one player predicted that Paul Hartley would be the first player to score an SPL Hat-Trick(Section B, Q6), but 29 players all predicted a 1-1 draw between Liverpool and Arsenal(Section B,Q3).

There are far too many players to list who have got all 4 questions wrong so far, but it is early days yet!!!!

CharlieS 1958(Stoke)-CutterThe Nutter(Histon)-CraftyCottager(Fulham)-HumptyNumpty(Sunderland)-Wallsy14MTFC(Mansfield)GreenockGazza(Morton)and TheCityGent(Rushden&Diamonds)

POINTS TO BE AWARDED THIS WEEKEND

2008-12-11T22:38:00.002Z

This is a big weekend for all of our players with the conclusion of one question,and the possibility that two more could end as well.
If Wolves score 2 or more goals at home to Barnsley,they will become the first team in England to reach 50 league goals,but Reading are also in with a chance and it will be a close run thing.
In Scotland Rangers have just edged ahead after last weeks resounding 7-1 win over bottom team Hamilton,they now have 42 league goals compared to the 40 of Celtic-the outcome of this could be settled when the teams meet at Ibrox over the festive period. Also, Section A has a question concerning which team will top the league on Christmas Day and this is also coming to an end and in some cases could also be decided this weekend.So be sure to check back on Monday PM to see all the latest updates,and to see if the current leader(wilsonand2000) can hold on to top spot.

THE PREDICTION GAME-LATEST UPDATE

2008-12-02T20:00:00.002Z

There are always a few prediction questions that will remain 'active' as they last for all or part of the season,and two that are nearing completion come from Section B Questions 7 & 8(all can be viewed at http://thinkyouknowfootball.co.uk)
These questions are about the first teams in England and Scotland to score 50 league goals,and it looks like being a very close outcome. In England it looks like a race between two Championship sides,Reading and Wolves,and in Scotland it's a tussle between guess who?? Yes,that's right Celtic and Rangers. Players in our game have as you would expect picked out Celtic and Rangers,and a few have chosen both Dumbarton and Ayr in the Scottish Leagues,but in England there have been more choices of teams,although the overwhelming choice for all our players supporting English sides has been Leeds United,with 19 players selecting them. They are well off the pace at the moment,but as we all know anything can,and usually does,happen in football.

THE FIRST POST

Hello and welcome to the first ever Blog from me,the footballmagician,the mastermind(???) behind the new and slightly different football prediction game that is run from the website http://www.thinkyouknowfootball.co.uk/

The idea for the game came about when I decided that it would be good to play something other than 'fantasy football'games,so I devised the game thinkyouknowfootball, and this Blog is designed to run alongside the game to keep all players both new and old completely up to date with how they are progressing.

Basically the game is all about predicting events that happen in certain football matches that are played throughout the season,including results,scorers,sequences and many more football related events.Questions were set at the start of the current season,but the nature of the questions and choices means that you can join in at any time of the season and still get enough points to be in with a chance of becoming the winner-there will be a cut off point early next year which will be announced in the future.Also,some questions have passed so it will not be possible to play these,but from a starting total of 44,more than 30 remain to be answered.All the info you need can be found at http://www.thinkyouknowfootball.co.uk/
