Like the last match at Madejski Stadium, Reading again finished with a 0-0 draw in a Championship match, still searching for that elusive first Championship win of the season. Now, a trip to Portsmouth and a League Cup tie against the Pompey Blues offer the next opportunity for a Royals win - and we know this one will not end in a draw! And we hope it will not go into extra time or <shudder> penalties. So it's south to Portsmouth for the Royals this Tuesday - can they bring back a win in this round of the Cup?

Points System

10 points - correct result e.g. you predict Pompey 1-3 Reading and the result is Pompey 1-3 Reading.
7 points - correct outcome with correct goal difference e.g. you predict Portsmouth 1-3 Reading and the result is Portsmouth 0-2 Reading.
5 points - correct outcome with incorrect goal difference e.g. you predict Portsmouth 1-3 Reading and the result is Portsmouth 2-3 Reading
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:

5 points - correct half-time score
2 points - correct goalscorers, for each goalscorer predicted that does indeed score (NOTE: this season you get points for correctly predicting the goalscorers of only Reading FC. You only get the points if Reading 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' within the specified tolerance. If one person comes closest to the actual value, that person will receive 7 points, but if two or more are both equally close, only the 5 points will be awarded.

Please put the score in this format:

Portsmouth 1-3 Reading (HT: 0-2) [Home x-y Away format]
Hector
Hurtado
Sa

...followed by your answer to the 'bonus question'...

At what time in the game will Reading score their first goal, per the BBC in this match (could be in extra time; a guess of SO will mean in the penalty shootout after 120 minutes)? Credit will be given for being no more than 10 minutes off the actual time of the goal, with no credit for a time if the mach goes to penalties, only a SO prediction. If you predict Reading will not score a goal at all, enter 'None' as your prediction for the time.

Good luck to each predictor and to the Royals!

Zip, it seems the "None" answer to the Bonus Questions exactly fits your prediction - should I assume that 'None' is indeed your answer?
