Just a question. How are you going to deal with "draws" between players as you get nearer the Final?

What about predicting the score as well as the result?

Isn't the yellow cards the tie-breaker?

I think there's been a bit of a cock-up.
We've all copied and pasted MDWat's fixture post and missed out Cambridge v Weeds :lol:

There might be some dissent if there are any ties that are drawn or a 1 point difference.

Not from me though,looks like I've given dushanbe a good hiding.

I'm pretty good at this knockout lark. ;) :)

Think I got beat by 1 and I would had leeds to win so it's a draw in my eyes (clarets2 would have put a draw :o )

When the results?

This is worse than being on holiday in the 90's and getting yesterday's paper for the results/news.

Sorry. Had a lot on this week. Probably won't get time until early next week. I'll do it asap though.

Only Joking MDWat, had a brainwave and decided to add mine and my opponents up. I won, so saves you a bit of time.

I'm halfway there with the results - it's more time consuming than I thought! Will have the full results and the next set of predictions ready by the end of the week.

I know you said Friday draw but remember there's a Friday match. MD

Plenty haven't predicted yet!

ignore top line. I've just seen on draw thread you've posted Thursday night.

Doesn't posting the draw before everyone has posted their predictions give the post-draw predictors an unfair advantage? Or have I just been tactically naive by going early?

MD, seems to have been some confusion over where to predict.
Might be worth deleting the 3 INTERACTIVE threads and starting a 5th round predictions thread?
