Brown Shoes

Post by Hog »

Because of an early kick off entries must be in by 12:30 on Saturday please.

These are the FA Cup ties between teams in different divisions (marked H for Higher and L for Lower).
Answers related to timings will be as per BBC and be the time elapsed in the game not the time of day.
You can only use each team once or use None once.
One point for each correct answer. There could be more than one correct answer per question so each will score points.
You can play a Joker on one answer for an additional two points (so three in total).

Brentford (L) v Leicester City (H)
Coventry City (L) v Birmingham City (H)
Millwall (L) v Sheffield United (H)
Newcastle United (H) v Oxford United (L)
Portsmouth (L) v Barnsley (H)
West Ham United (H) v West Bromwich Albion (L)
Hull City (L) v Chelsea (H)

1. Which (L) team will be the first to score?
2. Which (H) team will be the first to score?
3. Which (L) team will lead at any time? (One point for each time they take or re-take the lead)
4. Which (L) team will score more than one goal? (One point for every goal they score over one)
5. Which (H) team will win by at least two clear goals?
6. Which team will score a goal in the 90 or 90+ minute? (One point for each goal)
7. Which (L) team will avoid defeat?

TB. Total attendance at Newcastle (No repeats, if equidistant then earlier post wins)
