    Crowd was 31,648.

    Who was closest? And what did they win?

    Score after extra time counts. If you had predicted a draw and it went to penalties you would have won.

    This isn't a Sunderland game.

    Hold your fire. Am working it out now. Have to check what last crowd prediction was from a couple of posters!

    The final table looks like this. Exciting changes at 4th place with 4 on same score of 37. Actual crowd was 31648. Bit of a philosophical mathematical question as to whether a no bid beats a bid of 0 but decided to give it to the 0. However Big Ern comes in fourth followed by Roland D, then LessHopes/HairyAz and ACS.

    Finally the tiebreak question for 5th round. Total number of yellow cards awarded over the eight ties, including replays, extra time and penalties.

    Best sending off was the goalkeeper who punched the opposing goalkeeper in the face for patting him on the back (presumably after he had not saved the previous penalty).

    I think the sending off was a little harsh

    I made it through despite not even playing in half the games #genius

    now I can take it seriously after giving the first team a rest and push on for the title.
