GUESS THE GOAL 🥅 24/25 Guide: Points, Rules, Bonuses and the Table!

[Louzie0]

Hello again everybody and welcome to GUESS THE GOAL 🥅 for the 2024/2025 Season!


This competition is for AWAY GAMES including the Cups as drawn until the Finals. 😃
Hopefully there will be some cracking Champions League Away fixtures, this season!



How To Play Guess The Goal

Players guess the minute a goal will be scored in the away matches during this season.

It’s either our goal or an unfriendly one but it’s still a goal and it scores you points! That’s the basis of this game.

I post a clearly labelled single match thread as GTG ROUND X in Heroes Discussion.  You choose which minute of that match a goal will be scored, posting your guess in there before Kick Off.

I post scores at the end of the Guess thread shortly (24/48 hours) after the end of the match.

The Table appears in here, updated after every 3 or 4 rounds, depending on the timing of fixtures.

We play the PL away matches, including all Cup competitions. If there’s a chance this season, we’ll play an Aston Villa Women’s team fixture again! 👍




How many points can I score and how do I win?


Scoring your Guess:

Spot on the minute - 11 points!!!  🌟 denoted by a star!

Up to 1 minute away 10 points.

Up to 2 minutes 9 points.

Up to 3 minutes 8 points.

Up to 4 minutes 7 points

Up to 5 minutes 6 points

Up to 6 minutes 5 points

Up to 7 minutes 4 points

Up to 8 minutes 3 points

Up to 9 minutes 2 points

Entering the round 1 point 😁

No goals - everyone gets a point for playing the round! 😃


Bonuses: the chance to score double points with Wild Mings will feature in random Rounds during the season!



What to post


You post a guess identifying any one minute of the match between 0 to 90.

   e.g. 5. 13. 29. 34. 48. 57. 61. 72. 86. 90 and any variation on this theme.

If you want to guess an extra time goal, use 45+ and 90+; no specific minutes are needed.



Any Goal scored within reach of your Guess scores you points!!!

(This means that a very good guess can net you 20 + points when we play Liverpool. )


Points are awarded for the minute a goal is published as being scored, on the BBC Sport site.

Rounds are launched up to a few days before a match. I avoid overlapping rounds and there will be some very short run-ins, so be prepared! 

Results for a Round are posted at the end of that thread and the updated Table appears in here.  The final result will be posted here at the end of the season. See below for previous champions and runners up.



You’re always welcome to post comments and questions about GTG in here, thanks. If it makes more sense in the thread, fair enough!



Really Important Bit


You post just One Guess of just one minute in a round.

And

No editing of that post, please.


For the worried:

If you’ve accidentally posted a typo, then Do Not Edit, post again and tell me that this is your real Guess.  It could work, it usually does! 👍

For the opportunistic / litigious:

You can’t have a second guess by this method. Your first must be a GTG 🥅 disaster.

Congrats to Villa Lew, our first leader of the Table this season! 🙌 🥳 🎉

Everybody near 20 or above has done very well, so far. Keep guessing wherever you are, though, because you could pick up points from more than one 🥅 as in Rounds 2 and 3, if they’re close enough 👍

👀 Round 4 for the Carabao Cup game v Wycombe next week will launch in Heroes Discussion after Saturday’s match.  Good luck!

Congratulations to simboy, still top of the Table!👍🎉🥂

Actually, Caribbeanvillan took over the lead between Fulham and Spurs, so well done, I’m sure you’ll be back at the top before long!

AV84 got a second spot-on star! 🌟 hurrah!

A big Welcome to BoVillan, in on 2 points; just keep guessing and hope/aim for a minute between multiple goals; great news for points and absolutely ideal if scored by the Villa 😃🎉
