Just back from Cthulhu towers, got a bit distracted by the ra-ra girls, and I'd like to said that it was unbelievable priviledge to be invited to assist with the draw.
History will record this moment.
I have been asked to provide a gamblers guide to the 1st round draw and hopefully I will be able to provide everyone with the form guide tomorrow morning.
I will say that I have been lucky to receive a favourable draw, in the 1st Round, against Batman's Surprise. Hopefully I won't be a bit "Surprised" and I will progress to the last 16 with ease !
Play up SDMC.
Tie of the round ?
Either
Misty Dog v Ian's Dog
or
Varis Ian XI v Pen 14
Early favourite ? Perhaps Torwood Rovers. Can they last the pace though ?
Worst team. Team 32 but I can't possibly tell you their name here as it IS the Cup and I don't want to be embarsed even more than I normally am.
Till tomorrow.

match 11 friar tuck v Shire spurs Don't feel confident Shire Spurs as Mr Tuck has been known to win a tournament or two (you don't know what else he can do, seriously).

match 12 The illustrious chateauroux V Martino's eyes Looks like The illustrious chateauroux has got a decent draw and should easily come through his 1st round clash. However, stranger things have happened.

match 13 Cthulhu wanderers v Shug utd I won't quote the owner of Cthulhu Wanderers when this fixture came out but you can just imagine the tone of the text message I received. My view, The Wanderers are the form team but Shug Utd do on occasion use underhand and "slitherly" tatics so should never be counted out in the one off game.

match 14 bendigo shire v squirrel Perhaps the most romantic tie of the round. The boys from the back streets meet the the boys who want to go back to nature. The wanabaes v the want to bees My thoughts. If Bendigo don't go off the rails, as they are wont to do, then they should safety progess to the last 16.

match 15 Waffen S.S. v Dagon shiremen This has the prospect for becoming a very nasty tie. Waffen are notorious for their dirty and underhand tactics whilst the Dagonmen are seen as the "new kids on the block" with serious attitude. Expect fireworks, and expect the loser to blame the world for their misfortune.

match 16 Tams fife select v Ankle maniac A deeply personal affair, with both teams knowing too much about how each other will play. Rumours have it that the Ankle maniac Red Boys are stuggling to raise a team which does seem a bit unlikely. Assuming it will be a head to head at 3pm then this will be a very close one. Expect a draw and a win on pens for the fife select.

I seem to be commenting on the games so I might as well do the full 16. Feel free to add your comments.
