Well that's going to knock quite a few points off quite a few people!

* based on Kettering winning their replay tonight. You will get 3 more points if Nantwich win (so c'mon you Poppies!)
The one time I wanted Kettering to win and they let me down. Table amended...
This compo will resume on Saturday 11 November prior to the Trophy draw.

The Gateshead draw highlighted a flaw in this fine compo's scoring system. It seems unfair that those who didn't enter for the 1st round draw scored better than those who ran up negative scores.

So I propose that in future if at least one predictor gets a negative score, the lowest score of the round is given to anyone who didn't enter rather than they be awarded 0 points.

Do I have a seconder?

They did that the other week, bunged it alongside the FA Cup 1st Round draw.

I can’t take all this excitement in one day.
