Join our new game - win cash prizes

by Admininstrator on November 20, 2008

Okay its finally the time to launch our new game!  We are going to give a limited number of people the chance to play this weekend, in order for us to test the system. You can see the game here:

http://www.fcfootballblog.com/competition/

For this test weekend we will have a first prize (no runners up) of £50. I’m only going to let about 50 people enter so there is a good chance of winning.

Basically you need to predict the scores of the Premiership games.  If you predict the correct winner, you get 5 points. For each team you get the number of goals scored correct, thats another point. If you get it all correct, you get 10 points total for that game.

Like I say this is just a test for now, so once we get enough entries I am going to edit the link out of this post - it’ll be open for everyone to play from next weekend.

All I ask in return for playing this week, is if you notice any issues at all that aren’t as they should be, please fill in the Contact Us form on the main site, tell us about it and we’ll fix it.

Important - If you are going to enter this test weekend, please remember, write down or add the link to your favourites! Once I delete the link from this post you will NOT be able to navigate to the competition from our home page till next week!

I am aware the league table in it is out of date, so don’t use that to base predictions on. If you want to see how teams are doing in the league before entering, please click the “league tables” tab on the main site.
Thanks and good luck all.

I know I said I would launch it ages ago, but various issues delayed things. I also said I’d start the Atkins Diet at the same time and I’ve not started that either :)

Premiership star exposed as BNP member

by Jamie on November 19, 2008

Anyone reading the UK national newspapers today will have noticed that the British National Party have had their membership list published - complete with home addresses and phone numbers.

There is a Court Order preventing the publication of any of the Racist political party members details, but we can exclusively reveal that one Premiership star is listed as a member.

Which Premiership player do you think will be upsetting his Billionaire owner today? I can’t imagine his coloured partner in the team, whom he has forged an excellent relationship with on the park, will think about this news!

Sorry but I can’t post the actual name and risk arrest under the Court Order, but feel free to guess in the comments!  Really the player in question should be worrying about his teams league position, rather than getting involved in shady political activities.
