What to do
-----------

Look at the fixtures below: do you play home or away? In any case:
remember that it's single-leg, and a draw qualifies the team with the X
on its side.

*Home*
- Before Wednesday 2024-03-27, 23:59 GMT
- Pick one team from each of the two matches.

*Away*
- After Wednesday (or even sooner, if the home player has picked his
teams) and before kickoff of the first match
- Pick one of the teams not picked by your opponent (if he hasn't picked
any team, you have free choice)
- Their opponents will represent your opponent

*ATTENTION: NEW RULE*: If the away player doesn't pick any team before his/her deadline, the home player will be represented by the team that achieves the best outcome out of his/her two picked teams.
If the home player doesn't pick any team before his deadline, the away player can pick two teams (one from each match), and he/she will be represented by the team that achieves the best outcome out of his/her two picked teams.. If nobody picks a team,
teams are assigned randomly.)

Sorry, Doc. I'm the home team and I get to pick. But I'll be nice and go for Pep's gang, so that you can have your beloved Arsenal (also Rayo Vallecano, for the record).

Is that why FC Mark aren't winning the League any more? Are we becoming
too predictable?

Someone really hates that term as has written a wikipedia article
about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciociaria

LOL. I mean I’ve actually been to that area, and the whole touristic
identity of the region is tied to that term, and they even use it for their local newspaper.

Two boring 0-0 draws, decided on PKs for the away team. Mark has the opportunity to regain the top spot in terms of total number of titles, Doc is gunning for third place in total number of cups.



Repechage
MH 1-1 Werner Pichler(*) (Genoa 1-Frosinone X2)
Jesus Petry 2-0 milivella (PSG 2-Marseille 1X)

Werner and Jesus advance to the third place match, milivella and MH will fight it out to avoid the wooden spoon.

I didn't realise FC Mark weren't really in the Final till I looked at

Valencia are!
