The first year where there's no replays at the QF stage - I wonder if any of the underdogs will try and play for penalties. No-one will notice the difference with Boro!
Hi, cologne. These are mine: Chelsea v Man. Utd H Middlesbrough v Man. City A Spurs v Millwall H Arsenal v Lincoln H And these are Seb's: Chelsea v Man. Utd H Middlesbrough v Man. City A Spurs v Millwall H Arsenal v Lincoln H
Chelsea v Man. Utd H Middlesbrough v Man. City A Spurs v Millwall H Arsenal v Lincoln H Cheers Cologne! I think Man City will take this Quarter-Final tie extremely seriously - They want to get to Wembley. Unfortunately, I want Arsenal to defeat Lincoln, because I don't like Spurs and they've got an easy home tie against Millwall. At some parts of the game, I will cheer on for the Imps, because they are the underdogs and they've NEVER reached the sixth round of the FA Cup before. Could Lincoln make history against the 2014-15 FA Cup holders? Arsenal v Lincoln 3-1.
FA Cup Predictions League 2016/17 League Table Here is the league table after the 6th round. We had uniform tipping on Arsenal and Spurs and so it was only influenced by a few who placed tips on Middlesbrough and Manure. We now have a clear leader in Andy (possibility of a family double here ?). The equal signs everywhere will now disappear when we have a completely different scoring system for the semi finals.

We now move on to the semi final stage where we tip scorelines, as opposed to winners. The scoring system is adapted from the WPL. and applies to the scoreline after 90 mins (ie. normal time). So if you tip a team to win eg. 2-1, then they have to do it in normal time - what happens in extra time is irrelevant. The scoring system is: Right scoreline = 160 points (eg. you tip 0-2 and are correct) Correct result wrong scoreline = 40 points (eg. 1-0 against 2-0) Right score difference = 40 points bonus (eg. 2-1 against 1-0) ie. 40+40 = 80 points. Correctly tipping a draw (wrong scoreline) eg. 0-0 against 1-1 = 80 points (also here you are tipping on the scoreline after 90 mins.) The semi finals are both played at Wembley on the weekend of 22nd/23rd April. Chelsea v Spurs Arsenal v Man. City
Just thought I would bump this one up in case it gets forgotten about, and to avoid having to look for it. The Semi Finals are next weekend - and the tipping is based on the actuall scoreline after 90 mins. ie. 1-0, 1-2 etc.
