F.A. Cup Second Round - possible Cup upsets on the cards? OK, back to the MAGIC of the F.A. Cup - second round proper is this weekend. Why not have a browse at this idea as a ONE-OFF prediction game, but don’t forget our official Prediction Game which is of course more important, and obviously continues to run simultaneously! FA CUP 2nd Round Friday, 2 December 2011 Fleetwood Town v Yeovil, R2, 19:30 ________________________________________ Saturday, 3 December 2011 Stourbridge v Stevenage, R2, 14:00 Barnet v MK Dons, R2, 15:00 Bradford v AFC Wimbledon, R2, 15:00 (prediction not valid; two teams from same league!) Brentford v Wrexham, R2, 15:00 Charlton v Carlisle, R2, 15:00 (prediction not valid; two teams from same league!) Chelmsford v Macclesfield, R2, 15:00 Colchester v Swindon, R2, 15:00 Crawley Town v Redbridge, R2, 15:00 Dag & Red v Walsall, R2, 15:00 Gateshead v Tamworth, R2, 15:00 (prediction not valid; two teams from same league!) Leyton Orient v Gillingham, R2, 15:00 Luton v Cheltenham, R2, 15:00 Salisbury v Grimsby, R2, 15:00 Sheffield Utd v Torquay, R2, 15:00 Sheffield Wed v Aldershot, R2, 15:00 Shrewsbury v Rotherham, R2, 15:00 (prediction not valid; two teams from same league!) Southend v Oldham, R2, 15:00 ________________________________________ Sunday, 4 December 2011 AFC Totton v Bristol Rovers, R2, 12:30 Sutton Utd v Notts County, R2, 17:00 Colour code: Blue = team from League Division One Green = team from League Division Two Orange = team from Blue Square Premier Red = team from a league lower than Blue Square Prem Have a look at the teams - there are League 1, League 2, Blue Square Premier and even lower included on the list. I'd like to invite you to call for FIVE matches where you see a possible upset on the cards! By upset, it must obviously be a lower league side winning (or at least drawing) against a higher league side. You haven't got to give any score, simply guess successful lower, or even ‘minnow’ team! If you get it wrong doesn’t matter at all, you simply don’t get awarded points fot that game or games – and will surely apply to all of us. So … how do you get points on the board? If in your selected games a lower league side does indeed win you have 3 points. If the lower league side force a replay then it is 1 point (doesn’t matter if they later lose the replay). But ... bonus - if you choose an real ‘upset’ (win/draw) – a team from a league TWO tiers OR MORE lower their opponents then those points are DOUBLED. To help you, use the colour code underneath the games list to make an easy-peasy selection. This is the betting man's stuff - the more you risk with tier difference the more points you get, but there again, an upset is much less likely!! So you need to weigh things up!! Have fun - answers on this thread please - CARFEFUL closing time: 7.00pm FRIDAY night (that's because there's a Friday game on!). Points and placings for this one-off experiment again on Sunday night! Maybe we could repeat this, if popular, for 3rd Round and 4th Round when the top two leagues come in as well daib0 Edited by daib0, 27 Nov 2011, 10:10 AM.
