We don't usually include the FA Cup in the prediction league - however, to replace the postponed round 12, I've decided to include it this time. All the other rules are the same - kick-off is at 3pm on Saturday, remember your jokers and good luck!

Rotherham United v Queens Park Rangers

West Bromwich Albion v Hull City

Alfreton Town v Worthing

Doncaster Rovers v Accrington Stanley

Eastleigh v Boreham Wood

Exeter City v Wigan Athletic

Newport County v Oldham Athletic

Port Vale v Burton Albion

After that strange "cup" competition last week, I'm pleased to report that the Proper Leagues (and the National League too) are back in action. So it's the same routine: gaze into your crystal ball and predict the following scores by 3pm on Saturday. Remember your joker and good luck!

Coventry City v Stoke City

Southampton v West Bromwich Albion

Derby County v Barnsley

Wycombe Wanderers v Stevenage

AFC Wimbledon v Doncaster Rovers

Tranmere Rovers v Forest Green Rovers

AFC Fylde v York City

Altrincham v Southend United

Morning all, what plans do you have for the weekend?

Curry night tonight, not sure which delight Mrs. T will be conjuring up but it’s sure to be a nice one. I’ve got a Banana Bread beer to wash it down from Lidl not had it before maybe @super_ram has had it?

Tomorrow the park run is still partially flooded and they are doing a different route which means three laps of a smaller area, so I don’t think I’ll bother with that, three laps gets a bit boring, instead I’ll do a little run around our local streets then settle in to listen to Notts match on the radio.

Whats everyone else doing or been doing if you read this later.

Has Lampard ever demonstrated any real success as a manager.

One needs head coaches that have managed on smaller budgets

I watched match talk last night on Notts TV and James Perch former Forest and Mansfield player was a guest. When it came to talking about Notts and their new signing Dan Gosling, James Perch said he was staying at his house. When asked how that came about he said they were friends from their Newcastle days and Dan phoned up and said he’d signed for Notts and asked if he could stay with Perch. 

Perch said he’d look after him and make sure he got the right food and said he’ll score on Saturday.

@Dry Nelson Ray will she be there tomorrow? 

The attendance for the Crawley game was less than 4,000 which is very poor considering our recent success in the league, I know it was a horrible day weather wise but even so….

I thought the cheaper ticket price might tempt more out, are people getting tired of the FA Cup?
