DO YOU know the score when it comes to Doncaster Rovers?
Now's your chance to prove it.
Our Championship Challenge game aims to find the most knowledgeable Rovers fan out there - or perhaps the luckiest!

And there's £750 waiting for the winner - a 50 per cent increase on last season's prize fund.

The competition is simple. All y
ou have to do is forecast the score of every single Rovers game in next season's Championship by completing the entry form in this week's Doncaster Free Press.

But there'll be no studying the form before each match. We want to really test your ability - and your loyalty - by getting all your predictions before a ball is even kicked.

How will Sean O'Driscoll's men do against fallen North East giants Newcastle United and Middlesbrough?

Can you bear to predict anything other than a Rovers win in the local derbies against Sheffield United, Sheffield Wednesday, Barnsley and Scunthorpe?

Championship Challenge takes into account league games ONLY and costs £3 to enter - to cover administration costs.

You will get three points if you get a scoreline spot on, and one point for predicting the correct outcome (a Rovers win, draw or loss).

Entrants must be aged 16 and over.

You can chart your progress in the Free Press as we print a weekly Championship Challenge leaderboard. Further updates will also be available here on the website.

Send your entry, along with a cheque for £3 made payable to 'South Yorkshire Newspapers Ltd', to Sportsdesk, Doncaster Free Press, Sunny Bar, Doncaster, DN1 1NB.

Deadline for entries is midnight Wednesday, August 5. Good luck!


RULES

* Entry forms MUST be legible to be entered into Championship Challenge. No photocopies will be accepted. No nicknames - only real names allowed.

* Championship Challenge is based solely on Doncaster Rovers' league games during the 2009/10 season. No points will be available for cup ties.

* A correct scoreline will be awarded three points (e.g. if you predict a 2-1 win for Rovers, and Rovers win 2-1).

* A correct outcome will be awarded one point (e.g. if you predict a 2-1 win for Rovers, and Rovers win 1-0).

* An incorrect prediction scores no points (e.g. if you predict a 2-1 win for Rovers, and Rovers lose 1-0).

* In the event of a tie for first place, the winner will be the entrant who has predicted the most number of correct scorelines (worth three points).

* If the number of correct scorelines are also level, the tie-breaker question will be used to determine the outright winner.

* The winner will be entitled to a first prize of £750.

* The judge's decision is final. No correspondence will be entered into.
