The 2010 FC Cup

[Big Dave]

Yellow cards to Paul and Nick for extreme silliness     Now, don't argue with the ref, play on.....

[Ollie]

Group A

Rising For The Moon v The Five Seasons - bit of a solo show for Denny; if only they'd worked as a team like the Seasons.
Unhalfbricking v Bonny Bunch Of Roses - mammoth freestyle show at half time from the Brickers stole the show.
Full House v Angel Delight - very close match,
Rosie v Nine - a match decided in the first half. Some shocking playing from both sides in the second half.
Tipplers Tales v Jewel In the Crown - some ghastly foul play in the 80th minute coupled with a glorious 88th minute goal lead the Tipplers to victory.
Gladys Leap v The Wood & the Wire - it seems some people's feet were too busy dancing.

Group B

Expletive Delighted v A Sense of Occasion - a glorious show and not a word spoken between them. That's teamwork that is.
Fairport Convention v XXXV - draw.
Babbacombe Lee v Who Knows Where The Time Goes - All together more coherant and consistant side, though some moments of magic from both.
Gottle O Geer v Over The Next Hill - GOG were quite litterally trampled underfoot. Difficult to recover from that.
What We Did On Our Holidays v Red & Gold - Good playing from both sides, but some cheeky tactics (including the use of guest strickers Lowther and Lacey) lead to a rare home win.
Liege & Lief v Heyday (making up the numbers) - Outright winner from the start.

There is some more analysis to be done on this. We need to establish group tables by reference to goals (votes) to determine the quarter finalists.

Where's Big Dave?

I think arie was giving us his list of winners of each match..? (deleting the losers rather than highlighting his chosen winners)

Do we want a round of 16 or shall we progress direct to quarter finals?

Oh, a round of 16 I'd say.  Let's keep the tension going.

[GubGub (Al)]

Righto,

The draw for the round of 16, knockout stage is as follows. Games to be played between now and 10am tomorrow morning.

Full House v The Wood & The Wire
Tipplers Tales v A Sense Of Occasion
What We Did On Our Holidays v Rising For The Moon
Expletive Delighted v Liege & Leif
Babbacombe Lee v Unhalfbricking
Nine v Over The Next Hill
Fairport Convention v Jewel In the Crown
Gladys Leap v XXXV

A couple of tantalising fixtures in there. One between Denny debut and Denny return. Another between the man they couldn’t hang and the word they couldn’t spell! Favourites Liege & Leif appear to have picked up an easy away tie but time will tell.

I sense some foul play here. L&L effectively being given another bye. Steward's enquiry!
