FA Cup Prediction League

In addition to the sweepstake on another thread I am setting up an FA Cup Prediction League.

Details will follow soon

 

There are 6 rounds left in the FA Cup. Participants will predict a winner for each tie in each round - only the ultimate winner of the tie - no scores and it does not matter if the tie goes to a replay or not.

In Round 3 there are 32 matches so you will predict 32 results and score 10 points for each correct winner.....Max score is 32x10 = 320 points
In round 4 there are 16 matches so you will predict 16 results and score 20 points for each correct winner......Max score is 16x20= 320 points
In round 5 there are 8 matches so you predict 8 results and score 50 points per winner................................Max score is 8x50= 400 points
In the Quarter Finals there are 4 matches so 4 predictions at 100 points per winner......................................Max score is 4x100= 400 points
In the 2 semi- finals you get 250 points per correct winner........................................................................Max score 500 points
In the final you get 500 points for the winner.......................................................................................... Max score 500 points

One last thing FOR THE FINAL ONLY you must predict the actual scoreline after 90 minutes.
Correct score earns 60 points; correct score difference (e.g you said 2-1 and it is 3-2 you score 30 points ..........Max score 60 points
For this if the top 3 are within 60 points of each other they MUST predict different scores - first come first served

So in total there are 2,500 points up for grabs

All predictions must be in by the deadlines I will post

To predict put an H or an A next to the match - remember you are predicting which team you think will win through the round with or without a replay so for example

for QPR v West Brom you will either put

QPR v West Brom H if you think QPR will be in the next round or
QPR v West Brom A if you think it will be West Brom

- doesnt get much simpler than that does it


If I think of any more rules needed I will add them later

 

OK - if anyone is eager to start - here are the 3rd Round matches as they stand to date - note some 2nd round replays are still to be resolved
