1st Leg will take place this Wednesday (Liverpool) with the 2nd Leg next Sunday (Sheffield United)
Can Sproggy add another Trophy to his sideboard? Can Wilks do a Leicester and grab a Cup?
In the Europa, a new name on t'Cup. Who's your 2 bob each way on? Bin Ont Turf or icu81b4 ?

Sproggy 8/11
Wilks 4/5
Bin Ont Turf 2/7
icu81b4 8/15
Slap Better says that is an "illegal book" but Dodgy Dave just told him to **** Off !

To prevent any allegations of subterfuge and gamesmanship (as if

), Spot has suggested that ALL finalists submit their selections at the same time.
How's about during the half-time interval during Wednesday's game? Failing that, e-mail them to ralphcoatescomb at aol.com
Any thoughts??

Would that be the same for the second leg, during the Sheff U game?
If so I won’t be around for that game (or even watching it) as Mrs W has the afternoon planned out

You can always send them via e-mail. Carrier pigeon used to be an option but the kid down the road has just invested in an air rifle and we found that the mail just wasn't getting through

I’ll be somewhere in Devon on holiday on Sunday, so I’ll probably just email both submissions to you as soon as I can.

Thank you Sproggy and Wilks for submitting your selections.
Without giving anything away, there is a result, but that could be a Home, Away, or Draw

Cheers ICU.
Having just seen the pictures for the 2nd leg I'd say it's still all to play for, as I'm going to have to get my Darts out for some of them.
