FA Cup Prediction Comp (with a twist) 2014/15 ***NOW OPEN***

[foxinthebox2001]

Not sure whether to stick or twist with the Blades.
QPR at home are not exactly bankable.

Mind is made up, I am jumping ship and putting faith in QPR.

[primitive man]

As WBA have changed their manager, I think the time is right to take the swap from Gateshead to WBA.

[Tacalabala]

I'm sticking with Col U, it makes no sense but you never know with the Cup and Cardiff sound like potential fodder for a scalp.

[Shaggy365]

But not until Fri Jan 2nd !!!

Tonight's the night. Surely the longest anyone has had to wait & find out if a #shaggyspawnyswap has worked.

Rats (again)

Wonder if there's going to be another infringement, or perhaps I should officially withdraw from this competition.

[Ashers]

Phew!

Get to live another day.

[murf]

My trusty Cambridge through again.

[bspittles]

I wasn't worried, oh no!

[murf]

I wasn't worried, oh no!

That did look like being an embarrassing swap....

[Judio]

I will swap to Forest

Unlucky....

[murf]

Not got time in the next day or two to update this but just time to say I am definitely STICKING in round 4.

Bring 'em on!

[topspur]

Sticking with The Potters despite a resurgent Rochdale

[primitive man]

Sticking with WBA - who incidentally won the cup on the day I was born!

[Moist von Lipwig]

I'll stick with those plucky minnows, Manchester Utd for Round 4.

[Ashers]

I'll stick with those plucky minnows, Manchester Utd for Round 4.

Don't think you can swap anyway

[Ashers]

Bristol City or West Ham - thinking time needed

[murf]

I'll stick with those plucky minnows, Manchester Utd for Round 4.

No chance. Cambridge United are MINE. All MINE.

[paisleypark]

Sticking with Preston NE despite the fact that Sheffield Utd are a great cup team

[Moist von Lipwig]

well thankfully that was a banana skin avoided. Plucky little Man U managed to keep Cambridge at bay and get them back to Old Trafford for a much needed payday and hopefully use the home advantage to sneak through.

[Judio]

And bizarrely the Cambridge fans will have a bigger allocation of tickets at Old Trafford then they had at home tonight !!!!

[Ashers]

bigger, thought I had posted to swap to West Ham

[Ashers]

I'm not out yet, West Ham could be thrown out and Bristol City put back in their place.
