Welcome to the semi-finals of this season’s FA Cup Predicta!
Here are the rules: Look at the 8 games below and predict a result of Home Win, Away Win or Draw. You also have to rank them 10-3, ie 10 is your strongest prediction and 3 your weakest. Each ranking/number can only be used once. If you get a prediction correct, you will receive points accoring to the ranking you used for that match, multiplied by 10. If you are wrong, you will be deducted the number points equal to the ranking used. Predictions for this round can be made in the thread or PMed to me if you want secrecy.
Semi-final draw: Robin v Maximo Mark Andy v misterhamster
Please have your predictions in before the games kick off at 12:45pm, Saturday 14th February
NOTE: The Arsenal-Cardiff game is a replay. For the purposes of this game, you are predicting the result at the end of normal time. Any extra time and/or penalties will not be taken into consideration.
The semi-finals for FA Cup Predicta will take place over 2 rounds of the FA Cup so the ties will continue to the FA Cup quarter-finals, when there will also be 4 bonus questions to predict on.
Here are the 8 matches to predict on:
Arsenal v Cardiff (Monday, 19:45) Blackburn v Coventry Derby v Man Utd (Sunday, 16:30) Everton v Aston Villa (Sunday, 14:30) Sheffield Utd v Hull Swansea v Fulham (Saturday, 12:45) Watford v Chelsea (Saturday, 17:30) West Ham v Middlesbrough

I believe that if Arsenal win inside 90mins Maximo Mark is through to the final and I am eliminated from the Cup!

It's over 2 rounds robin, not just this one...

Oops, that'll teach me not to read the rules, sorry!

Would it be easier (and give more games for the final) to have the replays as the next set of fixtures seeing as how there are quite a few...

You also have to rank them 10-3, ie 10 is your strongest prediction and 3 your weakest. That wasn't kept too!

Same here as long as we get plenty of notice... Well given the fact the replays start tonight, that's probably not enough notice so we'll stick with the original plan.
