It’s the Prediction Cup Final weekend which means that all eyes will be on
@stackitsteve and
@Swerve in the Prediction Knock Out Cup Final while a few eyes will be on
@LenGlover and
@charltonkeston as they scrap over the Johnstones Paint Prediction Cup, the tournament for 1st round losers.
@stackitsteve is currently near the bottom of League 2 in the league while
@Swerve is just below at the top of the Conference.
@LenGlover is in the top half of League 1 while
@charltonkeston is in the top half of the Championship. It means that none of our high-flying moneybags teams in the Premier League are in this year’s finals.
Both
@stackitsteve and
@Swerve had shaky starts to their campaigns as both began with 0-0 draws.
@clb79 deserves note for losing to a finalist in both competitions. Mention also for cblock who won the Prediction Knock Out Cup last year and was a semi finalist this year.
The games are:

Safe to say I’ve been riding my luck in this competition, I don’t think my first round opponent was actually playing and still took me to penalties. Hope it holds out
Thanks to everyone who runs these comps, cheers

My lads gave it their best shot but a big club like yours from a higher league proved too strong in the end.
Thanks @thai malaysia addick for organising. I still have no idea how I fluked a Wembley appearance and replay!
No more Prediction Cups until January 2019 assuming @AFKABartram agrees to my increased cut of gate receipts.
