Despite the usual FA Cup shocks, there was a number of decent scores posted, headed by durham_exile with a magnificent 13 points. THE TABLES (10 out of 30 played) (Tie-breaker: Most 3 pointers and then the first to post) Group A.......................3pts....1pt.....Total TheHappyGooner.........2........5.........11 noah4x4........................1........3...........6 Tropical_Us...................0........5...........5 thrillseeker....................0........4...........4 BFG...............................0........2...........2 jonestones....................0........1...........1 An excellent start for TheHappyGooner having the wins for Wimbledon and Gateshead spot-on, making them favourites for the quarter-finals from this group. The only other 3 pointer in this group, also for the Wimbledon win, was achieved by noah4x4, and he just edges the other qualifying spot. Group B.....................3pts......1pt.....Total durham_exile.............3..........4.......13 gerry_us......................2...........4.......10 concodman.................2...........3.........9 OhOriOri.....................1...........4.........7 Daniel.........................0...........5.........5 eagledares..................0...........4.........4 The battle for promotion in Division One has continued here, with five of the protagonist's competing in this group. They have taken their League form into the Cup in a big way, lead by a magnificent performance from durham_exile who had the wins for Crewe and Gateshead and the Leatherhead draw spot-on. Even after this great display there will be no resting on his laurels as he is being strongly pressed by gerry_us, whose excellent effort got 3 points for the Gillingham win and the Leatherhead draw, and concordman, whose two decent spot-ons were the wins for Gateshead and Exeter. OhOriOri can feel hard done by as his 7 points would have him 2nd in Group A or C, but there is still time to be involved here. Group C...................3pts......1pt......Total sevebalo..................2..........1..........7 medicine_man..........1..........3...........6 mfb_cufc...................1..........2...........5 Sector4 .....................0..........4...........4 Pinault_Noir..............0..........3...........3 burnsieespana..........0..........2...........2 It is all to play for in this group, with sevebalo leading the way thanks to having the wins for Gillingham and Exeter spot-on. Getting a good 3 points for the Boreham Wood win puts medicine_man into the other qualifying spot. Group D..................3pts.......1pt.....Total Gate16....................3..........1..........10 gsy163......................2..........3............9 RSCOSWORTH..........2..........2............8 basher2010..............1..........3............6 Blue4U2...................1..........2............5 wessex_exile............0..........3............3 Another competitive group with Gate16 holding sway, thanks to another excellent performance in this round of games, by having the wins for Crewe, Gillingham and Exeter spot-on. Getting a decent 3 points for the Wimbledon and Gillingham wins has gsy163 in the other qualifying spot. After his top scoring effort in the League this week RSCOSWORTH followed that with a decent Cup score as well by having the wins for Gillingham and Exeter spot-on, and he is right in the slipstream of the two leaders.
