RR Foreign Legion - Across the Pond - View from Texas
From the FA Cup 5th Round, Premier League West Bromwich Albion come to visit Madjeski Stadium and our Royals. As noted in the match write-up (link: http://royalsrendezvous.co.uk/topic/10415700/1/ ), the Royals have had a mixed record against the Baggies, but have been a bit of a bogie team for them in Cup competitions. Reading is unlikely to field Danny Williams due to injury, Kermorgant and Evans are Cup-tied and Vydra is questionable, also due to injury. New signing Deniss Rakels is likely to get a start up front. Can Reading pull off a mild upset and defeat a Premier League club again in Cup competition? Please share with us your prediction for this Cup tie!

Points System - Note that this is a Posted Image match, so the following point totals will be doubled!


10 points - correct result e.g. you predict Reading 3-1 WBA and the result is Reading 3-1 WBA (includes an exact draw prediction; draw result & correct score);
7 points - correct outcome with correct goal difference e.g. you predict Reading 3-0 WBA and the result is Reading 4-1 WBA (this result includes a draw with the wrong score e.g. you predict a 1-1 draw and the result is 0-0);
5 points - correct outcome with incorrect goal difference e.g. you predict Reading 2-0 WBA and the result is Reading 5-1 WBA;
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:

Reading 3-1 WBA (HT: 1-0) [Home x-y Away format]
Williams
Cooper
Vydra

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

How much time will expire before a Reading player's first goal against West Bromwich Albion, according to the BBC stats? Credit will be given for a prediction within five minutes of the posted BBC time. If you believe no Reading FC player will be credited with a goal against WBA, make your prediction 'None'. An own goal by a West Brom player will not count for this bonus - it must be credited to a Reading FC player.

Best of luck to you and the Royals to continue their FA Cup campaign!
