It's FA Cup 1st Round week and time to make that difficult decision about the score of the game between Charlton and Cray Valley Paper Mills. Of course, there are plenty of other games to pick. Indeed, they are in abundance this week, with over 30 games to choose from. What could make it easier? Of course, no one will score zero this week. In fact, everyone will score three or more, won't they? Frankly, I can see myself spending an age over picking my three games this week and managing to find the FA Cup upsets. I'm also wondering which games will have no takers this week. As Appleton will be saying to our strikers on Sunday - fill your boots. Hopefully, not with lead.
As we enter November, it's time to tell you a bit about the Prediction Cups this year. First of all, for the newbies, the Prediction Cups start in January. In the cups, you will be drawn against another predictor, and your normal weekly scores will decide which player proceeds to the next round. In the event of a draw, there will be a replay. The full rules will appear later. As is the tradition, the competition is open to the top 128 predictors on Christmas Day. However, this year, there is a new rule - preference will be given to those making predictions for three or more weeks during November and December. More to follow in December.
