Okay, in the absence of a messageboarder contribution, I have used the ever-reliable RANDBETWEEN() MS Excel function, which has returned the number 3. This means the semi-final draw is as follows:
Gate16 v Sector4
The Net v RS Cosworth
You may predict as you see fit, one match at a time, all in one go, or anywhere in between. Predictions are required for the score (always after 90 minutes for the 2nd legs) and one goal-scorer per match. 3 points for a spot-on, 1 point for an outcome, and 1 pt for each goal your goal-scorer gets (and that would include own goals - but obviously excluding extra-time or a penalty shoot-out if either semi goes that far).
As always, first to post will not count towards a tie-break, but you cannot match at all with your opponent (not even goal scorer), so bear that in mind if the waiting game is your thing.
If a tie-break question is needed, it will be the number of yellow cards given in the Premier League on Saturday 16th of May (there are seven matches, and a straight red will not count as two yellows). | |

Best of luck to your Rams, and Spurs, next season 
Otherwise, looking forward to a Wessie 3000 allocation being swallowed up when the U's go up.
As I keep saying, this will be one of the great summers looking forward. I'm still on cloud 9.
Have read that former non ST holders for ColU will be so, next term. I wish I could hate on TH, but he did what we prayed for. I'm conflicted. Thank you, Humes. | |

Cheers RS - so everyone is in for tonight, RS you still have the next 3 to pick, and Sector4 I still need your goalscorer for next weeks Real Madrid v Juve second leg.
Good luck everyone. | |

A quick round up after the first semi-final, and with no one predicting a home win for Juventus in the 1st leg, it was down to relying on goal-scorers for points last night. Fortunately for Sector4, The Net and RS Cosworth, that did include Ronaldo and Tevez, unfortunately for Gate16, not Bale. Still, all very close so far.
Gate16....0 v 1....Sector4
The Net...1 v 1....RS Cosworth | |

No problem. Wessex admins a terrific league. Didn't want you not notice you missed one selection.
Don't forget your yellow cards | |

Just waiting for RS to post for tonight now - and to save you time needed to check, it can't be 2-0 to Barca with Messi as a goal-scorer. | |

Thanks Wessex. I'll go 2-1 Barcelona with Suarez to score. | |

Currently 0-0 at half-time - you're all going to be sooo pee'd off if it stays that way. | |

The third goal helped me a bit but would've better if Suarez had scored it. | |

Indeed, but it made a massive difference in the other tie though - full round-up to follow chaps. | |

Messi's two goals certainly didn't hurt you know who
And in the who-cares league,
Napoli v Dnipro
Sevilla v Fiorentina
Guess I'll watch Sevilla v Fiorentina. *yawn* | |

Round-up is a little later than planned, but I'm blaming election night and then a prolonged period of denial...
...but what can I say, with Wednesday's match on 90 minutes, and a brace for Messi giving Barca a 2-0 lead against Bayern Munich, both Gate16 and The Net were looking at a massive 5pts each, and complete control of their ties. Then up popped Neymar in the 4th minute of injury time to make it 3-0, and suddenly RS Cosworth and Sector4 had hope, particularly the latter who had Neymar as his goal scorer.
So, at the halfway stage, and with no spot-ons so far, the positions are as follows:
Gate16.....3 v 3......Sector4
The Net....4 v 2......RS Cosworth
Good luck chaps! | |

I'm certain you haven't forgotten RS, but just a bump as a reminder for your predictions for the 2nd legs - you can't have 1-1 tomorrow night or Messi to score, nor 3-1 to Real or Ronaldo to score on Wednesday night. | |

2-1 Bayern with Suarez to score. | |

I'm going to go for a classic Italian defensive performance and a 0-0 with Tevez as my scorer. | |
