I am pleased to announce the TfT £11K Celebration FA Cup(s) Competition.

The rules are as follows:

1. Entry is FREE to those who have had a tip accepted on the "Tips for tikay" thread prior to Thursday 19/05/2016.

2. The competition will be run during this year's FA Cup & Scottish FA Cup on Saturday 21st May.

3. Each entrant will pick a 50/50 answer for each of the questions listed below.

The questions have been chosen so as to be close to a "coin flip" based on the best information available from the collected might of the British bookmaking industry so everyone has a fair chance to win.

4. There will be one point for each correct answer and zero points for each incorrect answer. In addition you must select one question as your "joker". This will score you two points if you are correct.
In the event of a tie, the person who gets the closest answer to the tie-break question will be deemed the winner.

5. I will be using information from bbc.co.uk for the purpose of deciding the result of each question.

6. Entries must be posted on this thread by 2:30pm on Saturday.

7. The winner will be the person who scores the most points.

8. My decision is final in all matters (until proven otherwise).

9. If you have any questions, please post below or PM me.

1st     £50

2nd    £25
