*NEW GAME LMS, starting March 26th* (English Football)

[Magrat Garlick]

Think we should do one over the summer with the Aussie league or something, if anyone is up for it. Not even sure which months the Aussie league runs in.

There's the Nordic leagues, I suppose.

 

[alternative]

Wigan

 

[BoyBrumby]

Going with ManUre to beat Citeh on the grounds that at least I'll get something out of it if they win.

Reminders out to Uppercut, ripper, Somers, roseboy & saggers.

 

[roseboy64]

Bury v Shrewsbury

 

[roseboy64]

Gillingham v Rochdale if that one's gone already.

12ko, so yeah it had. You're ok with The Gills tho.

Still not too late for Uppercut, ripper, Somerset or pasag to tip either. Any tip made before kick off is accepted.

 

[pasag]

Poor form on my part.

Newcastle v Middlesbrough.

 

[ripper868]

gah, i knew i had forgotten to tip something before leaving for grad last week...oh well, will focus energyies on afl for the time being.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Chelsea vs Blackburn

What are the rules for games that might go to extra time and/or penalties ie Cambridge v Torquay on Sunday?

It's always been if they win, even on pens, you go through.

So I'll go Cambridge v Torquay

 

[fredfertang]

I see - so that game is a two horse race rather than a three horse race? I shall have to study the form!

 

[BoyBrumby]

The ranks are rather thinned out by a combination of some teams scrapping for survival/promotion/Europe, some teams having their feet up already and good old fashioned indifference:

pinchy: Burnley 1 v Reading 0

Fixtures from the BBC. Games played 15th-18th only, please. &, as a special plea from me, could tipsters please use the complete fixture with the team they're backing in bold as I now have to keep track of the teams we tip against as well as for. Just makes my life slightly easier. Ta.

What are the rules for games that might go to extra time and/or penalties ie Cambridge v Torquay on Sunday?

I'm inclined to consider a win a win myself; so if you tip the mighty U's and they required spot-kicks to advance, you'll advance too.

Makes it a 50/50 shout, so might be worth a look, tbh.

Man Utd v Arsenal

 

[cover drive man]

Manure to beat Arsenal.

 

[superkingdave]

Chelsea vs Blackburn

 

[Simon]

Chelsea to beat Blackburn for me too

 

[BoyBrumby]

Liverpool to beat WBA here.

Surprised to see quite so many people using Chelsea, tbh. Pretty much means you're reliant on the Toffees pulling off a minor miracle if the comp goes to the wire.
