[The Statman]

This is the thread on which you should make your predictions on the semi-finals of the Northern Ireland Trophy. This is also Round 5 of the Seasonlong Contest which will end with the World Final in May 2009.

Please note the Rules (http://www.thesnookerforum.com/board...ad.php?t=13755) – particularly, note that it is in your interest to use THIS MESSAGE as basis of your post, rather than basing it on a previous predictor’s post in the assumption that (s)he has correctly copied the draw.

The deadline for posting your predictions is the scheduled start of play, which is 1:00p.m. BST on Saturday 30 August 2008. Any posts with a displayed time of 1:01p.m. or later on that day will be too late to be considered.
