    divided by 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 =

    8 x 7 x 6 x 5 = 1680

    I better explain that

    Any club has a possibility of having 14 different ties. There are 7 clubs other clubs, so each of those either home or away equals 14. Once you've assigned that tie, the next club has a possibility of 10 different ties as there are only 5 other clubs left. etc etc


    I'm as good at explaining as Paul D.

    Your probability of getting a ticket for the next round:

    queuing up x -1 Bond = nil.
