Kylie and murf's Premiership Predictions "Festive" Knockout Cup 19-20
KYLIE & MURF'S PREMIERSHIP PREDICTIONS FESTIVE KNOCKOUT CUP 2018-19
Here we go again....
(Note - not using minileagues this season as a) there appears to be a bug and b) there are only 30 in the overall league anyway!)
You won't have to do anything extra to participate in this cup other than SIGN UP BELOW and then do your regular 'FISO Goals' Premiership Predictions for the league.
TO GET YOUR PLACE IN THE KNOCKOUT YOU NEED TO ENTER BY FIRST KICK OFF ON THE WEEKEND OF SATURDAY 14 DECEMBER
The preliminary round will be over the weekend of 14 December 2019
Knockout WILL start with the weekend of 21st December 2019
1. However many we are at by the start of the preliminary round, all those entered by that time will be guaranteed starting places in the knockout.
2. The preliminary round will sort out any byes for the first round of the knockout stages with the best scores (of those entered by the deadline) getting a bye.
HOW IT WORKS
This and my other cups are effectively informal/unofficial side competitions run by me using scores in the formal/official FISO Goals competition (which has replaced the superior informal/semi-official Premiership Predictions comps run by me and thelip in the olden days).
All ties will be knockout over two legs, home and away. Away goals counts if there is a tie and then usual tie-breakers.
SHE'S BACK - Other than the byes for the first round, all draws will be totally random using the e-blackbag with Kylie and one other special (but not as special as Kylie) guest doing the draw each week as per previous seasons.
SETS/DATES
These are based on there being no more than 16 entrants (add on 2 weeks if there is >16))
Set 17 Bye sorting preliminary type thingy round (14 Dec)
Sets 18/19, Last 16 (21 Dec & 26 Dec)
Sets 20/21, QFs (28 Dec & 1 Jan)
Sets 22/23, SFs (11 & 18 Jan)
Sets 24/25, Final (21 Jan & 1 Feb)
Set numbers etc are subject to change but I will try and keep them to the 'proper' sets of matches so most legs should have 10 games subject to rearrangements, snow, dragons etc. Dates given are saturdays (or midweek main day) and just give an anchor for the set dates. Bonus rearranged games etc may or may not count depending on how they fall and fit into the prediction sets.

In a relatively low scoring set only half the entrants got 5 or more but that including a whopping 5 out of 6 who had some extra incentive, including the two best scores of the week from scopsm and steve foster who hence have moderate 1st leg leads of 4 and 3 points respectively. forestfan also has a 3 point lead so some work to do for our 3 losers.
Talking of 'work to do', the entry deadline for the first match is just 22 minutes away (less if you are not reading this at the instant I type it - deadline is 11:30)

Kylie's been on the TV a fair bit over Christmas. She didn't mention this competition at all which was a shame.
