RR Foreign Legion - Across the Pond - View from Texas

And the Reading Royals (currently joint 16th in the Championship on 52 points from 45 matches and a -5 goal differential) 2015/16 Season closes out away at Ewood Park against the Blackburn Rovers (currently 15th in the Championship on 52 points from 45 matches and a -2 goal differential), a club whose current status in the Table very nearly matches Reading's. Some differences are that Blackburn's manager Paul Lambert will be departing the club after this match and is widely expected to join Celtic. His departure leaves Blackburn without a manager, chairman, chief executive or managing director. Last month debts of £102.4m were revealed by Venky's, run by the Rao family that owns the club, who are based in India. Blackburn are fresh off an away win at Rotherham and have drawn their two prior matches (1 win, 3 draws, 1 loss in their last 5, with 4 goals for and 5 goal against). Reading are winless in their last 6 matches (1 draw, 5 losses, with 6 goals scored and 12 conceded). A win could bump Reading to 14th in the Table, depending on other results, while a loss could drop the Royals to 19th, again depending on other results. Despite the turmoil at Blackburn, it is not easy to see the Royals coming away with a welcome win to finish out the season, based on past performances. Make your predictions and best of luck to you and the Royals as we finish off this season away! Points System - 10 points - correct result e.g. you predict Blackburn 1-3 Reading and the result is Blackburn 1-3 Reading (includes an exact draw prediction; draw result & correct score). 7 points - correct outcome with correct goal difference e.g. you predict Blackburn 1-3 Reading and the result is Blackburn 0-2 Reading. 5 points - correct outcome with incorrect goal difference e.g. you predict Blackburn 1-3 Reading and the result is Blackburn 0-5 Reading (this result includes a draw with the wrong score e.g. you predict a 1-1 draw and the result is 0-0). 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.) 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: Blackburn 1-3 Reading (HT: 0-2) [Home x-y Away format] Senior Murty Friday ...followed by your answer to the 'bonus question'... How many total fouls and shots (sum of both Reading and Blackburn fouls and shots taken, not shots on target) will the BBC stat report show credited in this match? Bonus Points will be awarded for a forecast no more than two off the sum for the two clubs. Good luck with your predictions and to the Royals come Saturday! Edited by Owlish52, 5 May 2016, 12:55 PM.

Blackburn 1-2 Reading (HT: 0-1) Kermorgant Rakels Bonus: I'm a little unclear on what exactly we should be predicting (total shots excluding shots on target or total shots?), but here goes... Sum of Total Shots and Fouls for both teams 47 |
