2024/25 'Fastest Goal Of The Week' Competition

OK, here we go again.

I’m sure you all know how it works. But for any new players, here are the rules.

From the weekly set of fixtures, just pick a team that you think will score the earliest/fastest goal of the week - not the first goal scored in the earliest match of the week, but the earliest goal scored across all games that week.

Make sure you submit your prediction(s) before kick-off of the first game of the week, otherwise your prediction will not count.


SCORING:

If you correctly choose the fastest scoring team, you’ll score 3 points.

For choosing the second fastest, it’s 2 points.

Third fastest, it’s 1 point.


As explained previously, if two or more teams score in the same minute, all players who picked those teams will score the appropriate point(s).

Hopefully that’s clear enough. But, feel free to ask any questions.


Week 1 fixtures coming soon...


*********************************************

PS. During covid, because of possible postponement of matches, we allowed three predictions.

I’m not sure how likely postponements will be in future, but if you wish to continue with the three predictions, feel free to do so.

@PatMustard I'm guessing if naming 3 teams it is only the team name first that counts unless that team is postponed and then moves onto next team and so on??

If so just going to stick with the one team each week

Correct.

You might as well name three. You never know when a match might be postponed or abandoned.

Plus, it only costs £1 each for a second and third team. Did I not mention that new rule for this season? :cool:

We will put it down to beginners luck and not them 10 packs of custard creams you anonymously received during the week
Yeah, probably beginners luck.

(Custard Creams, eh? :rolleyes: No wonder you only scored a point. Penguins would have got you three!)
