Dorking Wandering
The Dorking Wanderers FC Fans Forum
Hi all,
Is there any interest in running a mini prediction league - just for a bit of fun and to promote wider engagement on the Forum?
We could run one for all the Dorking games in each month, with a suitable prize for the winner each month. I have spoken to OLBG and they seem up for providing a suitable prize - shirt or merch perhaps. Format tbc, but something like a point for a correct result and 3 points for correct score. For those who enter, we could publish a league table each month. Or from first game in March to the end of the season. Might encourage more than the regulars to get involved and add a bit of competitive spice to our predictions!
What do people think? (A thumbs up will do)
If there is enough enthusiasm I'll have a word with OLBG and see what we can set up.
Cheers
Well, surprisingly enough, no-one predicted that! We are nothing if not unpredictable.
Credit to @Steve1966 for being the only one to envisage extra time and I was two minutes (and one decent headed clearance) away from picking up 3 points for a correct score, but thems the breaks.
Pretty much as we were, below. @Hemel Wanderer with his nose in front, with one jump to go in September.

Unbelievably, despite all the goal-laden predictions, no-one got it spot on today.
Final table for September below and congrats to @Hemel Wanderer for hanging on to his narrow lead amid the goals mayhem.
@AdeB was just the width of a post from nailing second spot with a maverick 5-3 prediction.

So here is the season's prediction league table. Just those who finish in the top three each month qualify for their scores to contribute to the season's table, below. Plenty of time to rein in the Wanderers at the top.
