    Mid-league mediocrity with minimal effort. Sounds like the history of NUFC.

    To be honest I think you have proved that probability theory works. If you predict same score for every game without looking at fixtures chances are you will end up mid-table!
    Still makes my life easier and you were the only person who got Lincoln, Sutton and Oxford upsets correct!

    So the fixtures are out now for Round 5 but the draw will not be made until the end of the one replay next week. So all please note I need your predictions to the following:

    Leicester City vs Derby County

    Plus the answer to the tie-break question

    Size of Crowd at Kung Pao Stadium for this game?

    This will be used to determine finishing positions for those level on points

    I have also had some bad news regarding the 16th player. My maid has now said she can't be bothered playing. She won the lottery last night so is off on holiday for the next 3 months. So I have decided that the player who finishes first in the league will get the reward of having a 2nd entry in the competition. The draw for the 5th Round will be as follows:

    First vs 15th
    Firsts 2nd entry vs 14th
    2nd vs 13th
    3rd vs 12th
    4th vs 11th
    5th vs 10th
    6th vs 9th
    7th vs 8th

    It will however be an open draw for Round 6 so if First's two entries are drawn against each other he will lose one entry but be guaranteed a spot in the quarters. This now means that the dream tie is back off.

    To be fair I should have been granted two entries as I take up two seats.

    Nev that prediction is just stupid

    i mean you've obviously fallen for the trick question as there will be nobody at a Kung Pao Stadium. Now if it had been the King Power Stadium then of course you would have been the likely winner.

    I will be at the King Power stadium in spirit, watching on TV in Japan where it is actually known as the Kung Pao stadium, singing with the locals, one ril, one ril :)
