Dear All

my apologies to all about the tardiness of this post. I have to be honest that given the role I have taken on at my club, I had given little thought to this annual locking of horns until Thatbloke PM'ed me.

I have to say that I am not sure if I will be able to manage this for the whole season but I will get the ball rolling. If there is anyone who would like to take this on then please PM me.

I know there was some discussion about invigorating the format but given the possibilty that someone new may have to take this on, I propose we keep it in the tried and tested format to keep it easy to manage.

For newcomers, predict your match winner from each game being played and score a point. Get all seven matches right and get 3 bonus points, get 4 - 6 right and get 1 bonus point. Most points at the end of the season is the winner. Max points per week is 10.

Please keep the order of predicting the same as is posted

This weeks games are

Bournville V South Leicester

Bridgnorth V Sheffield

Broadstreet V Sandbach

Bromsgrove V Peterborough Lions

Burton V Paviors

Doncaster Phoenix V Nuneaton

Kettering v Newport (Salop)


Best of luck, all

Life is a game but rugby is serious!

Thank you, Stallion, for taking on the Mids Prem Prediction Jamboree once again.

My guesses for this week are:

Bournville V South Leicester HW - S Leicester have apparently lost a pile of players and Bournville have set quite an expensive stall out

Bridgnorth V Sheffield - HW This should be a routine "W" for Bridgnorth

Broadstreet V Sandbach - HW Broadstreet have some good additions, apparently; so have StBach so could be close

Bromsgrove V Peterborough Lions AW The beasts from the east will be strong and not looking to hang around in this league

Burton V Paviors HW Assuming that the Argentinian is allowed to get involved and has support 

Doncaster Phoenix V Nuneaton HW  Gut feel, that's all

Kettering v Newport (Salop) AW Based on previous games. albeit a few years ago and loyalty!

Good to hear from you Stallion - I hope your rebuilding is going well and you will soon be able to enter your new team into the Midlands Leagues Once more
Some teams have been very quiet over the summer with little or no news coming out of the media machines whilst others have been shouting from the rooftops about their signings and ambitions but it remains a fact that only one, maybe two, can realise those ambitions so a lot of clubs will have to face up to disappointment when April comes around
Difficult to disagree with the predictions submitted so far but I am going to vary by one!
Bournville v Sth Leicester HOME
Bridgnorth v Sheffield HOME
Broadstreet v Sandbach AWAY
Bromsgrove v Peterborough Lions AWAY
Burton v Paviours HOME
Doncaster Phoenix v Nuneaton HOME
Kettering v Newport AWAY (Despite quotes from the home website expecting 'a top quartile finish or maybe another promotion') Admirable targets but there's not many go straight through the Leagues at this level

Won't be putting in any predictions, for the same reason I haven't previously. The Nuns have undergone major changes, new head coach, plenty of new players so "I'm sorry I haven't a clue".

Somethings never change. It's not all about winning the prediction league it's being able to take the heat when you get it wrong. It's no good hiding on the Nuns website doing predictions and then saying I got them right. Wink Need to man up LOL

Bromsgrove V Peterborough Lions AW - Lions should be too strong

Burton V Paviors HW - Hopefully pick up where we left last season

Doncaster Phoenix V Nuneaton HW - No points deduction this season for Phoenix and Nuns were poor last season

Kettering v Newport (Salop) HW - New boys to start with an upset
