If you've not played this before, then the rules are simple... 1. Select 10 teams you think will win, ie they will make it to the next round 2. Select 2 teams that you would like to play jokers on, by marking a J next to them You will get 1 point for every correct outcome of your 10 team selection You will get 3 points for every correct joker 10 points + 6 points = 16 max possible As we go through the competition, the rules will eventually change, because we can't have 10 games and 20 FA Cup teams all the way through, but let me worry about that, just be warned, I make the rules up as I go along, so you are entering into the spirit of the competition, it's just a bit of fun. I will use this one thread for every round. I will tally points up when I get time, which can often depend on my mood, but most of you have played before, so you know how I roll. Good Luck...

I know I'm not in this - but surely you can't allow a selection after a game has been played ( Barnsley - by allbluelenny ) - albeit that the result of the tie is undecided ?....... and lenny still included Barnsley after brb had advised him to remove the selection... oh well - I'll just carry on watching the cricket - waiting for the Bayern v Dortmund game later......... I see Sky rerun the Gills v Man City final again earlier today. (( might be a while before we get to Wembley again. ))
My first thought on seeing Lenny's prediction and all said all in good heart was...I give up! lol for exactly the reasons you've stated, but I do love Lenny.
It was a long day for me and only went on my selections from what was shown above, my apologies but I still got the other 9 right xx
