    The Euro 2012 prediction competition

    Told you I'd do it. I've tried to get a major fast food franchise to sponsor it, but to no avail I'm afraid. The best I could get is a free hot dog from Mad Corals burger stall at the Tamworth ground, but I'd give that a miss if I were you, unless you enjoy spending the entire next day on the toilet firing jets of burning fizzy gravy out of your arse.

    Anyway, the points system is the same, 3 points for a correct score and 1 for a correct result. and there are bonus points to be earned as well.
    I'll list each round of group games a few days before, and any predictions of games must be made before kick-off. Any predictions or edits made to posts after that game will make that prediction and those before null and void, so if you change your mind about anything, then put it in a new post. Don't forget that these games will take place over 4 days rather than the single day of the regular comp.
    If, for whatever reason that I don't care about, you cannot get on line at a later date, drop me a PM and I'll exchange mobile numbers with you.

    The Euro 2012 prediction competition

    First round of group games to predict:

    Poland v Greece
    Russia v Czech Republic
    Netherlands v Denmark
    Germany v Portugal
    Spain v Italy
    Ireland v Croatia
    France v England
    Ukraine v Sweden

    You probably don't need me to tell you the match schedule, but the first kick-off is Friday 8th at 5pm BST (6pm in Poland and 7pm in Ukraine).
    Two bonus's for this round.

    Bonus 1, for 2 points. Predict which minute, nearest guess wins, the first goal goes in (if at all) in the opening game between Poland and Greece (probably not the best choice for a goalscoring bonus, but it wasn't me that drew that out as the opening game).

    Bonus 2, for 4 points. Which will be awarded at the end of the tournament, obviously, predict how many goals will be scored in the entire 31 games of the tournament. Total should include extra time, but not penalty shoot-outs. Don't worry if you want to predict the same amount as somebody else.

        @Sean
        Is there a cut off point for total-goals-in-tournament prediction? Would I be able to change it after the opening match kicks off?

          The first round of games could indicate whether it is a high or low scoring tournament, so it would only be right to have all predictions on that before first kick-off.

                    I was wondering whether we'd do something like this.
