[WestGorton]

Looks like we'll be beating United in the final on the way to our treble.

Good post!

Tell you what. Quite happy to do a charity bet with you witnessed by an independent bluemooner.
You hit red or black 10 times on the bounce, I'll pay £500 to your chosen charity, you don't you pay £500 to mine.
Deal?

Where and when? ;-)

The issue is the draw is not even as close to random as flipping a coin (which is also not actually random), hence why aggregate expected value probabilities come in to play, which is beyond pure discrete event probability.

It’s the basis of many areas of science (statistical confidence/significance) and actuarial computation, among other things.

I tend to mention this in the pub before every cup draw.

We are in a very good position for this FA Cup. United the only ‘big club’ left in.

Brighton should be a lock for the semis.

They've had 30 cup draws in the last 5 seasons and have got 18 home 12 away. Not including being the "home" team at neutral venues.

So they're 3 off dead centre. Well within any margin of error or standard deviation.

This will be a great day!

Vinnie coming home, seeing his statue and bringing a Burnley team that, for as long as i can remember, will give us a good game.

Always gets a great cheer from the lads around my local.

Canal street, cruise@22:00 tomorrow, he’s pm’d @gordondaviesmoustache to be the adjudicator (:

I've had a word, and Wembley have agreed to hold 'The Great Man City Toss Off' on the Saturday evening before the Semi.
Warm coins are in play.

I bet you’re fun at parties
