Cup matches - 27th Feb 2011

Glen Parva vs Star n Garter – going for a 2-3 away win

Countesthorpe vs Hoskins – I think Hoskins will be bang up for this match after losing last week, I think 2-4 to Hoskins

Advance vs Scrappy – would have liked to have watched this game – Advance to win 2-1

Trinderbox vs Throops – expecting this to be quite a tight game but Throops to edge it 3-2

NRI vs Saff Lounge – not going to make a prediction, just hoping for a win of any sorts

MDH Knights vs Sparta – Sparta have struggled recently, but I think MDH have as well. I think Sparta have problems in the goalkeeping department, but should still have too much pace and power for MDH – 4-2 to Sparta Parva

agree like to watch that game should be a good one but think scrappy now have the edge over advance and with squad off players moreland gets out will be good enough for a 3-1 win i say ...
trinderbox win 4-1

star garter to win 5-2

us to give countesthorpe a real game and maybe the win hopefully

Glen Parva 3 aet 4 Star n Garter – Extra time may be looming here gona go for last minute winner for S&G

Countesthorpe vs Hoskins – Great result for Countesthorpe, but Hoskins will want to a reaction after their first loss!

Advance 1 vs 0 Scrappy – Would also be interested to watch the cream of the Alliance but will back the mighty Advance

Trinderbox 1 vs 2 Throops – Trinderbox seem to involved in tight games a lot, and may get edge by the odd goal here to

NRI 6 vs 5 Saff Lounge – Both like to score goals, if Saffron can have a good day of defending they could nick this but think I will back NRI to shade it

MDH Knights 3 vs 2 Sparta –Got some good mates at MDH and if they get to the final I can say we got beaten by the finalists should a great game on a great pitch

Star and Garter to win by a couple
Advance v Scrappy to go to penalties
Us v Hoskins could go either way depending who wants it more, hopefully we have a full sober squad to give us a chance
Trinderbox to win by a couple

I can see it being a NRI Sparta final with both winning by the odd goal

Yeah all 11 of us did for the full 90 minutes!

Yeah another tough one and we will give this one our best shot aswell

Good luck in your semi final in a couple of weeks mate

Glen Parva 2 vs 5 Star n Garter.....Although a couple of Divisions worse off I think Star will be far too good and take this by 2 or 3 goals.

Countesthorpe 3 vs 3 Hoskins.......What a game this is, I think this will be all square after the 90 minutes and extra time and will be settled by the lottery of the penalty shoot out, may the best team win.

Advance 3 vs 2 Scrappy.........Another mouth watering clash which can go either way but I feel that with Advance BIG game experience and knack to get the job done they will just edge it, although no result in this game could suprise me.

Trinderbox 4 vs 3 Throops.......I believe Division 3 is some Division this year and again I'm going for the lower ranked team to come out on top.

NRI ? vs ? Saff Lounge........Never make any predictions for my team, but I know we are in for one hell of a game as I have done my research on these and if we aint at the very TOP of our game we will get turned over, Saff are a quality team and have some class acts amongst thier ranks. Having lost 3 semi-finals last year I know how much it hurts to lose a game of this magnitude so I for one won't leave any stone unturned.

MDH Knights 4 vs 4 Sparta........I reckon this game really can go either way so i'm sitting on the fence for this one, this game will be settled from the penalty spot I believe.

Just like to finish with good luck to all the teams this week in thier HUGE games and may the best teams win on the day..............

Unless we play badly...then playing badly and winning!

I hope your prediction is right (or we win in normal time) but if our match does go to penalties as i would fancy our chances in a shootout as that is my speciality abit like your keeper

Good luck in your semi final

ROYALS i honestly hope its a cracking game for both to be involved . as much as we both would love to win in 90 and win without the tight last 10mins or woteva . but i hope we dont go penaltys our record isnt great .
im sure it will good one all best m8

Danny earley to bag the winner for the royals

makke adams bag a trick and ben wickins double scoreline 5-5 . penaltys 10 - 8 lol

i think who ever wins in the advance v scrappy match will obviously take some beating... the treble is a bare minimum requirements for the scraptoft globe trotters and advance will want to make sure they dont all paves the way for a remarkable game as do all the ties this weekend good luck to all involved

Nri 6-4 saff--daz,dave & jay to continue the goal rout

I fancy a Mark Ilnicki goal this weekend and one from one of our defenders as well....headed corner....

A gareth widdup goal also?

i honestly feel our game will be 3-2 and a very tight game

I think theyl be a goal fest denty..we just gotta play football like we have been as some of our passing has been top draw lately

Yes would obviously prefer to win the game 5-0 but i can not see that happening!
We know this game will be just as tough as last weeks match!
Hopefully i wont concede 5 but i can see it being a cracking game aswell, i would take 5-5 and 10-8 on penalties if we win

Danny Earley aint got a goal in him lol

i saw earley bag at least 5 times when we was at blaby but spose that was in a 5 year spell lol

we wont be letting u win easily if u do win! i can assure u that we are all still gutted what happened sunday .

I am expecting an extremely tough match and dont expect an easy win at all!
Whoever has there name in the hat for the next round will of deserved it

we need to show some balls this week gaffer

Can that not wait until next week?

Heard that games at Lut Town are called off this afternoon and our game against Saff tomorrow is looking highly doubtful....will have to see.

yes pitch flooding after all the rain yesterday fingers crossed it goes ahead tho but unlikely

i was due to ref at lutterworth this afternoon,,,,and was told that the goal mouths were muddy,,the area near dugouts flooded and the area in the corner near the old changing rooms was under water,,,,,,

I spoke to Lutterworth Soccer Centre today and they said that the pitch was totally waterlogged...would be good if we could find out if game was def on or off tonight, save about 50 cars travelling over there (including saff and mates - we dont have that big a squad!).....any info would be great....appreciate we want to give it as long as possible though....

Any news?? Surely if its watwrlogged theres not gonna be any drastic change in 24 hrs..dont get me wrong im well up for tomoz

Game postponed at Lutterworth
