My semi-final looks like being decided by who gets the most three pointers as Concordman has matched all of my outcomes except one. It could possibly be that single outcome is the one that divides us. Birmingham to beat Leeds…….A bold prediction by my honorable opponent….

As I predicted, me and Concordman deadlocked after day one. Now it is probably down to the outcome of Birmingham v Leeds, our only non-consensual outcome. Surely the Premier Club must start as favourite?

After 15 miserable hours on the road to watch a dismal U’s performance, sadly, I suspect Leeds might similarly capitulate to complete my frustrating weekend. Villa is my other team (e.g. my birth legacy), and a bizarre goalkeeping decision ruined their FA Cup weekend. England Rugby also capitulated to the jocks. Even the comedy channel on SkyGo couldn’t lift my distress.

Why did I move to Colchester to suffer this eternal disappointment? Cowling Out!

Early Sunday kick-off

BIRMINGHAM CITY 1 LEEDS UNITED 1

AET Leeds won 4-2 on penalties

Latest scores

Blue4U2 5 Sector4 3
By having the Birmingham 1-1 spot-on Blue4U2 has taken the lead. Still hope for Sector4 as they have different predictions for the Grimsby and Stoke fixtures.

concordman 2 noah4x4 2
The Birmingham v Leeds fixture was the defining one, but with nobody predicting the draw, someone is going to need a 3 pointer from the final four games to avoid a replay.

GRIMSBY TOWN 0 WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS 1


Latest scores

Blue4U2 5 Sector4 4
The Wolves outcome for Sector4 to reduce the deficit.

A vital 3 pointer for concordman with the Wolves 1-0, to give him the advantage.

OXFORD UNITED 0 SUNDERLAND 1

STOKE CITY 1 FULHAM 2


Latest scores

Blue4U2 7 Sector4 5
They both had the Sunderland outcome, but Blue4U2 got the Fulham outcome, to regain a 2 point lead again. Sector4 now requires Arsenal to win 4-0 in the final fixture to force a replay.

concordman 9 noah4x4 7
They both got the Fulham 2-1 spot-on, and the Sunderland outcome. This means noah4x4 now requires Arsenal to win 3-0 in the final fixture to gain a replay.

Final scores

Blue4U2 8 Sector4 8
Unbelieveable Sector4 getes the Arsenal 4-0 spot-on to force a replay, despite Arsenal getting their fourth goal in the 27th minute.

Details for the replay will be on a separate thread sometime tomorrow (Monday).

concordman 10 noah4x4 8
They both end by having the Arsenal outcome, so it is concordman who goes through to the final.

Congratulations Concordman on your narrow victory. Had Wolves scored +1 more or Arsenal -1 less would have been a different result.
