Prediction League FA Cup

So here we are.....some real cup excitement....even some cupsets!!!!!
Yellow cell shows who was winning at round 1 and what then happened. The Mitrovic behaviour turned everything on its head!!! Given everyone went for a MU win, except for scull, that incident allowed an away win into a home win. Brizzle overthrew scull, Nin consolidated his position and Turk came from nowhere literally to drop out LLF (based on the Mitrovic correct scorer!!!!). BT held onto his extremely slim first round lead, which he got coz he predicted that McSh!ttie would score for Sheffield. He would have won the tiebreaker anyway....but I am very tempted to penalise him for involving himself with McSh!ttie and bringing our little community into disrepute. Any comments?

 

Well done BT. Good luck in the semis ☘️

 

Jury's still out.....what if people demand a ban for his choices?

 

Agreed. Anything positive about Twatty McTwatface must be punished.

 

Well done Nin.

FfB prophesised your win.

 

Thank you Irish.

 

I'll be first in the queue

 

Congratulations Turk... Nice comeback

 

So sorry LLF ...I went with 4-0 until I saw your post so I changed to 3-1 and then all the bloody planets aligned themselves

 

Yes I did see but hey - that's the way things work out.

 

Semis this weekend! This is a reminder.....both games to be predicted......90 minute scores....a scorer for each team (or nil).....First card for the first game only. Opponents already decided but on my computer at the moment and not accessible.

 

Thanks for the reminder FFB.... Almost forgot I went through!!

On for a cup and league double right now, so have to ensure I don't do a Dave Jones era City side and see both slip from my grasp....

 

Man City 3 Sheff U 0
Haaland

And here are the opponents:

Blue Turk the Cat
Barry Tiger

Ninian Opinion
Brizzle Bluebird

 

Sorry Brizzle....Nin is our cup champion...so a tough gig for you.........but you are the only nether region contender so do us proud!!!
it's a bit like real life this.....a top table contender(and cup expert), a relegation contender, a bright new thing and BT!!!!

 

BT is certainly not a bright new thing!!! He makes Masky look like a whippersnapper.

 

BT is none of the previous descriptions....he's just BT.......an enigma wrapped in something as Churchill said.....probably an old chip wrapper!!!!

 

FFB you do make me smile BFB does sometimes as well, especially today when he told me he was a grampy for the second time

Definition of an enigma : a person of puzzling or contradictory character: I will let you make your own minds up about that, but as for being wrapped in chip paper, someone thought they found me wrapped in an old duvet in a doorway today. Of course it wasn't me but they were certainly puzzled

 

Good luck Turk. May the best predictions win!
