Our 2009/10 FA Cup competition will again cover all rounds from the 3^rd through to the Final scheduled to be played in May 2010. That's a total of 63 matches over 6 rounds and a possible 315 basic points and six rounds of banker bonus points (30 points in all) in all to be gained! The 3^rd round again marks the entrance of the Premier and Championship leagues teams into the FA Cup at the 3^rd round stage. Matches are being played over the weekend of the 2^nd & 3^rd January 2010. And, as ever, the recent draw has produced a number of potential banana skins for the Premiership boys and “Glory, Glory, Halleluiah“, “I was there” opportunities for the minnows.

The 3^rd Round Score Five game prediction round will go up very shortly and we’ll update it as the replays that determine who has made it into the 3^rd round are completed. So you will have plenty of time to enter your predictions. The 4^th and subsequent rounds will be updated for predicting when we know them.

2. All points are awarded using the usual Score Five game based on the score after REGULAR time, injury time plus time added on only. Extra time, penalty shoot-outs and replays DO NOT count for the Score Five FA Cup competition. (So you can predict a minnow holding out for a regular time draw!!)

3. In the event that the ORIGINAL match is postponed for any reason it will still count in the ORIGINAL round for which it was scheduled regardless of when it is subsequently played.

4. The Score Five Management may declare one or more games or teams in any round as ineligible for the banker bonus for that round and there is no “Last man standing” competition in the FA Cup competition.

5. Players can only receive ONE life, instead of the usual Five Lives, during the entire FA Cup competition. Players using a life cannot win a prize for the round it is used in.
