Inter-Forum FA Cup S-F Scores Game (2015-16)

Here’s a fun competition once again, and it’s a one-off game, so make a prediction and then sit back and enjoy! It’s a game orientated to your forum with your individual winner, but it’s a game offered to a few special friendly other forums too, namely:

Reading - Royals Rendezvous
Blackpool - Back Henry Street
Peterborough – The Posh Forum
Sunderland – Black Cat Chat
Newcastle – Toon Forum
Watford – WFC Forums
WBA – Baggies Zone
Leeds – LUFC Talk
Liverpool – Talk the Reds
Bournemouth – CourtOffside
West Ham – Cockney Boys





So, it’s the FA Cup semifinals coming up. Just give the full-time scores, with an extra bonus for HT score predictions too, as you see it going, for BOTH games. Replays don't come into it - there aren't any in the rules anyway!
We are looking at FT at 90 mins if a result produces a winner, OR at 120 mins of play (end of Extra Time) – meaning that the 120 mins score is the DEFINITIVE for us so this could be a draw (therefore penalties are NOT counted as part of this game ... )



POINTS to be gained ... note it’s slightly fuller than in previous rounds



EXACT SCORE with correctly named winning team 10 points

RIGHT RESULT and winning goal margin correct (e.g. you say a team wins 3-1 but it finishes 4-2, or 2-0) or a draw 'one goal out' (e.g. you say 1-1 but it is 2-2) 7 points

RIGHT RESULT but winning/draw/goal margins out 5 points

WRONG RESULT - however you correctly give the goals for one of the two sides (e.g. you say a team wins 2-1 but it finishes 2-4, or you give a 2-0 win but it finishes 2-2) 3 points

WRONG RESULT but reward for an entry! 1 point

BONUS – give the half-time score: exact correct scores (and exact scores only) have a bonus of two points each one!

+ Postponed or Abandoned? In this unlikely event the game is void, but you are awarded two points for the inconvenience!

Editing of any of the predictions is allowed up to kick-off time of the first match played but then are counted as definitive ... but please, it is YOUR responsibility to tell me on the thread or by PM !




a reminder of what 2 matches we are talking about, but I’m sure you all know!:

Saturday 23rd April - Wembley Stadium

5.15pm - Everton v Manchester United




Sunday 24th April - Wembley Stadium

4.00pm - Crystal Palace v Watford





Points and the placings for this comp will appear on this thread within a couple of days after the last match for this round has been played … I’ll give both the complete points for your forum, and the top dozen overall positions on all forums together for even more prestigious bragging rights!

Good luck!

Hi again pals … last count back was 28 if I remember correctly.

Of course, it’s THIS WEEKEND that the FA Cup semi-final games take place!

So now it’s time, and I’m going to coax you all this week … I’ll set the foothold to at least six participants per forum if possible, to make a good game if possible. For most forums that shouldn’t be too difficult …
So please have a quick read of the original post and lay your entries out!!
