After a stirring win in the FA Cup Quarter-Finals replay, Reading return to Championship play away at Charlton Athletic. Charlton sit 11th in the Championship Table on 51 points, seven places and 7 points above the Royals, and are on a very good run of form, with 4 wins in their last 5 Championship matches. Reading's recent Championship results have been much less successful, with one win and a draw in their last 5 matches. Not a pretty picture for the visiting side, but the Cup win should put some fresh breeze in the Royals' sails, so perhaps an away result may be in reach! How do you predict this match will end? Points System 10 points - correct result e.g. you predict Reading 3-1 Wolves and the result is Reading 3-1 Wolves 8 points - correct draw e.g. you predict Reading 1-1 Wolves and the result is Reading 2-2 Wolves 7 points - correct outcome with correct goal difference e.g. you predict Reading 1-0 Wolves and the result is Reading 2-1 Wolves 5 points - correct outcome with incorrect goal difference e.g. you predict Reading 3-1 Wolves and the result is Reading 1-0 Wolves 1 point - if you get the prediction completely wrong, you still get one point for taking part! Bonus Points You get bonus points for three things: 2 points - correct half-time score 5 points - correct goalscorer (NOTE: this season you get points for correctly predicting the goalscorers of both Reading AND their opposition. You only get the points if the team score the same amount of goals as you predicted or more. This prevents prediction of ridiculous scorelines for more points.) 5 points - correctly predicting the 'bonus question', unique to each game Please put the score in this format: Reading 3-2 Wolves (HT: 1-0) Hector Taylor Murray Henry Evans ...followed by your answer to the 'bonus question'... Match bonus question is: what will be the average time for all cards received by both clubs in this match, according to the final BBC stats? Credit will be given for answers not more than 5 minutes (tighter limit here!) away from the average time for all cards as posted by the BBC. If you expect that the match will go card-free, please submit 0:00 as your guess for this question. Note that the BBC do post in their play-by-play the actual times of goals in added time (example, 90+2:15), and that is the time to be used for the average (in the example, 92:15 would be used), so the average could possibly be above 90 minutes, as it was for Reading cards in the Brighton match! Good luck with your predictions, and good luck to the Royals! |

And so I can finally understand this bonus point system, say for example if there were two cards, one at 30 minutes and the other at 90 minutes, add those together and that'd be 120 minutes, average that out and it would be 60 minutes. Is that how you're doing it? |

Exactly so, for any of the 'average time' bonus questions (goals or cards). Against Bradford in the replay, goals were scored at 5:20, 8:49 and 67:46, per the BBC. Total time was 81 minutes 55 seconds, so average time was 27 minutes, 18.33 seconds. |
