FA CUP Predictions Competition

[Hornette_TID]

Good to have you back predicting H

thank you Leonardo

 

[Leo]

With 4 replays and 4 matches still to be played the maximum achievable so far is 240 points. As it will be a while before the replays are done I thought I would post a teaser of the table so far. This shows how we are all doing with those games to go.

Barry has got only 3 predictions wrong to date so well done to him - Matej appears to be our Dark Horse - oh yes - ahead of Daddy again

I scored nothing
That is unlucky

I think your scores are on the QPR board

Still nothing then, Sheff. Utd took all!

Your lot were no better

 

[canary-dave]

Your lot were no better

At least we were away

Look at it this way - you scored 100 times more than your team did.

Bloody kid!
Right! change of tactics in order. Disciplinary measures from, perhaps an unreasonable parent, will include restriction of access to the internet...

proud to say i predicted a Sheffield United win

 

[Busy Being Headhunted]

proud to say i predicted a Sheffield United win

You also predicted a Watford win

 

[Hornette_TID]

You also predicted a Watford win

That's because i could never predict a Watford loss...heart for the Watford game, head for the Sheffield United result

 

[Busy Being Headhunted]

That's because i could never predict a Watford loss...heart for the Watford game, head for the Sheffield United result

thats why you never win

 

[Hornette_TID]

thats why you never win

never say never. I win bets . And i don't play to win, i play to have fun, it's always fun when i go with the obvious winner ...and they win!

 

[Leo]

For what it's worth so far -out of 25 taking part 12 people predicted a Sheffield United win. Only 5 predicted Preston to beat Norwich and the lowest were the 4 who predicted Brighton would triumph over Brentford.

It shows how hearts rather than just heads are involved - 7 thought Watford could beat Chelsea. Most of us here now have a soft spot for Norwich and the warmth we may have ever felt for QPR appears to have reduced somewhat. I cannot think what could have affected those last two phenomena - I wonder if CD or BBH can?

Warmth for QPR - would be like taking a rattlesnake to bed.They are just below L*t*n on my loathometer scale.

Don't beat about the Bush (Shepherd's ?) Vic - just say it how you see it

Well - the 3rd round is finally complete and Bolton fared best in the replays rising to joint top with Cologne. Tucked just in behind are BArry And MatejVydra. 80 points separates top from bottom which is just 4 matches worth in the next round. Good luck everyone - I will post the next round fixtures later today.
