You simply have to be a signed up member of the http://www.onlybarnet.com message board to participate. As each match thread appears you can post your prediction for it, and leave the rest to me. The threads will be accessible under their own separate Forum entitled ‘Prediction League’ on the message board and the current league table will be on view after each game. Members forecast the final score of a Barnet FC game, the half time score, the attendance and the first Barnet goalscorer in the match. its a simple as that. 

Example: Barnet 2-1 Wealdstone
Half Time 1-1 
Nicky Evans
Attendance 1,411

Please take care to be specific for the sake of argument ie if you post 0-1 without mentioning the team names as a result , which is perfectly OK, I will take that as an away club win.


THE RULES FOR PREDICTION LEAGUE 2024/25


1.We will award points to ‘user names’ only and not to members’ real names. For instance some of the members may have a couple of alternative user names but they will not be added together.
2.The prediction for each match may be made at any time right up until kick off. Any prediction made after the kick off time will be void.
3.You may change or alter your prediction by re-posting on the thread but we will accept the later prediction as your entry. (Please try and refrain from changing your mind too much the edit button is your friend - thanks).
4.1 point will awarded for predicting a correct half time standing (i.e. you predict Barnet 2-1 Opponents and the actual score is for example 1-0 or Barnet 0-1 Opponents and the actual score is 0-2)
5.2 points will be awarded for an exact half time score prediction. (i.e. you predict the half time score as Barnet 0-0 Opponents and that is the score at half time).
6.4 points will be awarded for a correct result prediction. (i.e. you predict Barnet to win 2-0 and the final score is actually 2-1 to Barnet)
7.6 points will be awarded for an exact score prediction. (i.e. you predict Barnet to win 2-0 and that is the final result)
8.If you predict both the exact half and full time scores then you will receive 2 bonus points to make a total of 10 points (i.e. if you predict Full time: Barnet 2-0 Opponents, Half time: Barnet 0-0 Opponents and they are the scores at those junctures you will receive 2+6+2 bonus points = 10 points)
9. 1 point will be awarded if your attendance prediction is 200 above or below the official attendance. 2 Points will be award if the prediction is within 100 above or below. 3 Points will be awarded within 50, and 5 Points for an exact prediction
10. 3 points will be awarded if you correctly predict the scorer of the first Barnet goal in the game. 1 point will be awarded if that player scores at any time during the game. (i.e. you predict Callam Stead to score first but he actually is the second Barnet scorer). As in last years competition you may have a guess at this even if you believe that Barnet will not score in the game but you may also predict “No Barnet Goalscorer”. If you do and that is the case you will also earn 3 points. You may also predict the first Barnet goal in the game as an own goal by an opponent if you wish and this will also earn 3 points. You will earn 1 point if an own goal is scored but it is not the first Barnet goal of the game.
11.If you happen to hit a ‘JACKPOT’ - defined as correctly predicting the exact final score, the exact half time score, the first Barnet goalscorer (including a “no goalscorer” or “own goal” prediction) and the attendance to within 50 you will be awarded a massive 20 points.
12.If you are unable to make a prediction for a particular game don’t worry as we will accept what we consider legitimate requests in advance via a posting or E mail me at tonyhammond2@hotmail.com. However each thread will be put up well in advance of the game.
13.The judge’s decision will be final - so there.

Good Luck,
Reckless.
