Sorry to hear that mate, I thought it was unusual for you not to post.

It's all change at the top of the table as we have new joint leaders in itstimupnorth and Patchy70 sharing pole position. It appears one of the main deciders in this round was the relatively new addition of yellow cards, so knowledge of players being a useful factor. Everyone apart from me, fell into the usual FA Cup trapdoor, by choosing Man City to win. No one got both goal scorers correct, but to be expected in what was low scoring semi-finals.
1. itstimupnorth = 58
1. Patchy70 = 58
3. DebbieA = 57
3. geoffthegills = 57
5. brb = 54
6. allbluelenny = 53
7. KFG = 51
8. Resurgam = 50
9. gioblues = 47
10. grumpygit = 41
11. The Gills PegLeg = 20
12. @alwaysright = 1

Ok, last leg of the competition and I've included a bonus match, this is from a Premier League game being played on the same day as the Cup Final.
This is to enable me to give people the chance of earning additional points.
So the rules...
Select two winning teams;
1 point per correctly selected winning team....If you want to put the Burnley v Leeds game as a draw you can, but you must mark it clearly as such. You cannot place the Cup Final as a draw, whoever lifts the trophy wins.
Select one joker;
2 points for a correctly placed joker....you cannot place a joker against Burnely v Leeds if you have selected it to be a drawn game. It must default to the Cup Final in that scenario.
Select two goal scorers;
2 points for each correctly selected goal scorer. It can be two from the same game, or one for each game. If the goal scorer is on the losing side, it still counts.
Select one yellow card;
3 points. A straight red counts.
Bonus points;
Give me a number, give me the total number of goals you predict will be scored over the two games (excluding Cup Final penalty shoot out).
Get the number spot on, you win that number of points!
Total possibility of earning 11 points + the addition of give me a number.

I pm'd brb with my predictions earlier in the week, but just for the record (and for better or worse) now that the Burnley game is underway, this is what they are
Leicester
Leeds (J)
Roberts (Leeds)
Mount (Chelsea)
Yellow / Red : Schmeichel
5 goals
Good luck everyone!
