FA Cup Prediction Comp (with a twist) 2015/16

Post by **Subsonic** » 20 Jan 2016, 23:37

Stick with Bury please.

Post by **Ralfbergs** » 21 Jan 2016, 06:44

I'll probably regret it, but I decided to stick with Stoke, even though they are playing away.
So 2 people left, who still have to choose will they stick with their teams:

Derby County v Man United - Maldini
Liverpool - morganb v West Ham United

Next round starts next Friday!

Tricky decision...

Is the deadline for deciding whether to stick or twist the start of the next round or before the match kicks off?

Before the match kicks off. And yeah, West Ham has been a really tough opponent for Liverpool this year.

Final 3 ain't bad.

In the League Cup one I got knocked out 6-0 as I couldn't switch, so it's the best way to go out

Good luck jimmy ching

Sod it...I'll swap to West Ham.

I assume Gregseggs is out already.

Yes, as he didn't swap, it means he is stuck with Chelsea - and that means he is already out. I do have to check with murf what happens if West Ham lose today.

Hasn't happened before. Always had one team left or a proper final.

I think it would be declared a shameful tie.

Post by **Ralfbergs** » 13 Mar 2016, 17:54

Maldini was quite close, but looks like we will have to wait for West Ham v Man Utd replay

Post by **Judio** » 22 Mar 2016, 18:14

Which has now been announced for Weds April 13th at 19:00

Ok, I certainly wasn't expecting this comp to end like this, but with murf's guidance -

Congratulations GregsEggs and Maldini with sharing the honor of winning the 2015/16 FA CUP prediction competition!
