Round 2
Post your prediction in the below article for ONE of the following sporting fixtures taking place next weekend. Remember folks, no draws, you must pick winners.

Saturday 16th Football - FA Cup with Budweiser

Saturday 16th Football - nPower Football League One
8/5 Bury v Coventry City 7/5

Saturday 16th Rugby Union - Aviva Premiership
Odds Worcester Warriors v Northampton Saints Odds
Odds not yet published

**Handicap Bet
Sunday 17th Football - Barclays Premier League
4/9 Liverpool v Swansea City (+1.5 goals) 5/1
** To be clear, 1.5 goals will be added to Swansea's goals tally in determining the winner of this match. So if you pick Liverpool, they need to win the match by 2 clear goals for you to win. If you pick Swansea, they can afford to lose by a single goal, and you still win.

Sunday 17th Rugby League - Stobart Super League
Odds Huddersfield Giants v Wigan Warriors Odds
Odds not yet published

ALL PREDICTIONS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY SATURDAY NOON
GOOD LUCK!

Any chance you can bump the original thread every week with a link to the new week's predictions please?

I will, Marco, it has never occurred to me to do this before, but Sheriff JW Pepper (Chelsea fan I think) suggested it - great idea.

I'd post it on the Derby board but it's probably a bit unfair on the other Derby guys as they haven't been involved since the off, so it'll probably just annoy them.
