Wow, this comp lives on for a second season!

Just predict who you think will win this season's FA Cup. Simple eh? Err, no.... you have to start with a team in Round 1 and use your 'skill' to navigate your way to the final or as far as you can. All subject to the nice twists in the rules (see below).

Reigning Champion = eagle 224

1. Simply pick a team that will win their FA Cup round 1 tie (by replay / pens if necessary) see draw on BBC
1A. Note you can only start with a team in the first round and cannot join after the first round.
2. You cannot copy someone else's pick.
3. Win and you go through to the next round, lose you go out. Simple enough for ya?
4. Throughout the comp you can only change your pick in each round to the team your current pick has drawn (e.g. if you have Charlton and they draw Man Utd in round 3 you, and only you, can switch to Man U). This is subject to rule 2. If you draw a team that somebody already has then you are stuck with your pick. Complicated enough for ya?
5. I don't think I'll need to tweak these rules later but I reserve the right to do so!

For round one just copy the last list on the line which keeps the list in alphbetical order by club - club name first, then yours.. Try and keep it in alphabetical order by club. Please check you haven't missed off anybody who has posted since the list you copied. The deadline is when your team kicks off so late entries will get less matches to choose from. Obviously no entries after round 1.

Note: If you want to pick a team still involved in qualification round replays then you pick BOTH teams (as they are listed on the BBC page for the draw, e.g. "Kidderminster Harriers or Corby Town" and get the one that gets into round 1 - no changing.)

I'm going for my nearest thing to a home town club (Cambridge United) and a couple of other overly keen folks have already let me jnow who they want.

List for copy and pasting (always use the latest list on the thread):

Cambridge United - murf
Charlton Athletic - Judio
Sheffield United - stuboy
