​

Hi everyone,

You’ll remember last year’s FA Cup sweepstake saw 168 entries with Ryan Cudlipp winning the £336 after the Manchester derby in May. And I’ve still not had a pint out of him…

This year’s game will be slightly different for 2 reasons,

1, it’s already Extra Preliminary Round weekend

2; I have never got past more than about 20 entries before and last year was a ballache to keep a track of who had picked which teams!

So this year, here is how it will work……..

Entries will cost £2 and, as always, it’s winner takes all. You may enter as many times as you please.

Entries will close at 5pm on Thursday 15th August, by which time all of the extra preliminary round results should be known barring any appeals.

On the evening of Thursday 15th August, I will conduct a live FA Cup draw to allocate each participant one of the 221 winning teams from the extra preliminary round.

Once you have been allocated your side, they will remain your FA Cup team until they are eliminated. Once they are out, you will follow the side which defeated them and so on.

The catch comes when two sweepstakes face each other. In that instance the winners move on and the losers are out.

To enter a side, you need to send £2 per entry to the details below and make sure your name is the reference on the payment. If sending multiple payments then let me know by text who they are for.

 

Darrell D Butler

Good luck and, any questions, just shout!
