edited April 2019 in Other Football and Sports

This was quite popular last year, although I do not want to detract from the main Snooker thread but this will be easier to get more people involved.

Rules: Pick one person from each match, each round for 1 point per correct result. Semi Finals will be worth 2 points per correct result Final will be worth 4 points per result Please post your name if interested, i will do a spreadsheet to keep track of the scores with the odd update. You can join at any time but entry will close just before the first game of each round, in the event there is an overflow and a match outstanding please state clearly who you want to pick eg.: Ronnie O'Sullivan, If Ding wins. However if Selby wins i will go for SelbyOnce all selections posted I might choose to do non-interesting facts, such as 90% people have gone for player X
Prizes: What prize? exactly just a bit of bragging rights on the forum will that do :)

What next? I will post the fixtures once announced, qualifiers finish and then please post your predictions its as simple as that.

    Yes and no, eg. I will post on here around when released (Thursday 10am) . But if you see the list elsewhere before I post it you can use that and just put winners/ or highlight. No preference as I input manually so whatever suits.

    I will post on thread to make easy to copy/ bold selection.

    If its easier @johnnybev1987 once the draw is done and I put it on the snooker thread I can copy and paste it straight onto here

    If its not too much trouble mate, preferably once we have the order of play so its easier to follow :) I have marked you down already and anyone else as long as you post predicitons you are in don't need to say on here but good to have a bit of interest. 11 so far..
