Tiebreak question – What will be the crowd at the Plymouth v Derby game? 18026

The Tiebreak question was not needed, but the nearest anyone came to the 18026 was me and mrh with 14000!

360 was the max score possible, but with the Arse, Man U and Boro drawing there were never going to be massive scores! Anyway, here are the results, and the 4 posters through to the Semi Finals!

Earl Purple v misterhamster 0-63 (Earl P failed to make any predictions, so loses by default, mrh had a bad round, only correctly predicting 2 games correct, but he progresses!)

Andy v Frag 151-74 (I only got 3 right, but the Boro v West Brom match was the one that won it for me.)

otctim v Robbie 107-162 (Robbie the newcomer rolls on! He got 4 correct, with Man City winning away guaranteeing him the spoils!)

Si v Zodiac 30-129 (Si had a disaster only getting the Chelsea game correct, whereas Zodiac managed 3 correct)

So the semi finals are as follows!

misterhamster v Andy

Robbie v Zodiac

Congrats!

As there are only 4 games to predict on in the quarter finals, there may be other bonus questions, where the closest person picks up extra 5 points, so watch out for those. I'll get the draw up as soon as it is announced and the replays are played. My moneys on Chelsea getting Plymouth!

[Robbie]

hurrah! I'm doing better than I ever thought I would.

[Zodiac]

Yay good stuff. How does this actually work now then, given that there are fewer of us than teams left in the contest? Won't it be finished after the FA Cup semis?

[Admin]

The next round will be based on the games from the quarters and maybe some replays. The winners of those games will go through to the final where they will predict on the semi final and the final with some crowd and total goal predictions as well

[Panda]

Bad luck, Earl P. We all forget at some point...
