PREDICTION LEAGUE RULES??

[bartonscorpion]

I always thought that in the past, any game that was not completed or abandoned during the game for weather or other reasons, “the score at the time of abandonment counts”, this rule has certainly not been applied for Saturdays match between Morcambe v Scunthorpe game, is there any reason why?????

[bartonscorpion]

Sorry, it should have read the Scunthorpe v Bradford match which was abandoned after 28 minutes, in such cases the score at the time normally counts, only postponed matches are usually void.

Straw-clutching for six points?

It’ll be replayed. The question is do our original predictions still stand or do we enter new ones as and when?

For example: once I knew Saturday’s five were all postponed I didn’t bother filling out the predictions page.

They don’t count I would think.

Let’s keep it simple. Full time whistle goes and then points are awarded after that.

If they give points for a postponed or abandoned match they wouldn’t be able to give you another chance when the game is played.

Northumbiron, You say that you didn’t bother when you knew all five games had been called off on Saturday, if that had been the case there wouldn’t be any questions??, but you know as well as we do pal, all five were not postponed, the Scunny game went ahead and was abandoned after 28 mins, in the past when games were abandoned for some reason, be it snow, fog or any other reason, the score at the time of abandonment counted, it is entirely different to a game that is postponed and does not even start.

No points have ever been awarded for postponed games Mike.

Final whistle results only. I can’t remember any SUFC matches that were abandoned and not replayed in my time supporting the club.

New matches will be added for the rearranged fixtures.

Thanks Matt, that is now clear enough. There was never any question regarding replaying the games, all are aware of that happening!!!!!!
