Welcome to this season’s FA Cup Predicta!
I'm on stand in duty for this this season, and we've missed a couple of rounds, so best crack on...
Here are the rules: Look at the 10 games below and predict a result of Home Win, Away Win or Draw. You also have to rank them 10-1, ie 10 is your strongest prediction and 1 your weakest. Each ranking/number can only be used once. If you get a prediction correct, you will receive points according 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.
No knockout this season, just a simple who can score the most points over all the rounds! ;D There may also be some replay rounds, have to wait and see how many replays there are. ;D

Andy, ignore my pm if thats ok? I want to make a couple of changes, which fortunately i've got time to do, and as everyone has subsequently posted in the thread i may as well post my revised predictions in here as well. The pitfall of predicting first, didn't want to be the only one who'd predicted in the thread with everyone else pming you! Hence the initial pm  D2 Millwall v Birmingham H6 Brighton v Portsmouth - will stick my neck out and go for the underdog! A8 Burton Albion v Middlesbrough D5 Doncaster v Wolverhampton D1 Hull v Wigan D7 Reading v West Brom - Quite confident we can get something here... A9 Scunthorpe v Everton A3 Sheff Utd v Aston Villa A4 Southampton v Blackpool A10 Stevenage v Newcastle Glad i'm not the only one who found these hard! |

I think a lot of sides will be resting players, hence some of my predictions are against the expected.

Burton and Stevenage provided the biggest shocks of the round, so not a massively high scoring round, Raliverpool takes a 12 point lead into the next round/replays, but it's all fairly tight. Robin, champion extraordinaire of the Footy predicta comes bottom!  Then again Notts County beat Sunderland, so I expect he's very happy! *Leaderboard*1 Raliverpool 3192 Misterhamster 297 3 Andy 275 4 Shireblogger 253 5 Wonderwall 242 6 smokeyb 209 7 Tom 198 8 Paddy 187 =9 Earl Purple 143 =9 Maximo Mark 143 =11 Arcadia 132 =11 Frag 132 13 Robin 110
