Predictions League

Join the glosrfc.com predictions league. The idea is to predict the score of Gloucester games during the season, and you will get points for doing so well. You may even win a prize.....

Glaws Prediction League

How good are you at predicting the outcomes of our games? Do fancy pitting yourself against the others on this site to find out who is the most knowledgeable? Then enter the predictions league.

All you need to do is e-mail glaws_predictions@hotmail.com with your prediction of the score in the game. You don’t need to make a prediction for every game, but if you don’t predict a score, you won’t score any points. Eligible games are Gloucester games in the Zurich Prem, Zurich Championship, Powergen Cup and Heineken Cup.

The person with most points is the Champion. There may be a small prize too. This will depend upon how many people enter. (If only a few people enter I might give up!)

Points are awarded as follows:

2 points for guessing the winner correctly,
1 bonus point for being 2 points or closer to the Glaws score
1 bonus point for being 2 points or closer to the opponents score
1 bonus point for being 1 point or closer to the difference between the two scores
5 bonus points for being exactly right.

So the maximum you can score each game is 10 points (although this won’t happen often). Predictions must reach the above glaws_predictions@hotmail.com before I leave for the match, so midnight before away games and midday before home ones. I’ll try to post an updated league every Sunday.

Try to be clear about what score goes with what team and who you are. Including text like this in your e-mail will help.

Hardlywins 10 Glaws 35 This is my prediction for the Hardlywins game.

If I can’t understand what you mean, then I am going to ignore your entry.

Many thanks to Simon Good who runs a similar League on the Cheetahs site, and has allowed me to use his idea. He has challenged us to see which supporters are the best predictors.
