FIFA 11 Cup Competition - Championship Teams

    Need 16 players from the league for this. Strictly First Come First Serve. Rules are as follows:
    1. First round - 16 teams - 8 matches
    2. Quarters - 8 teams - 4 matches
    3. Semis - 4 teams - 2 matches
    4. Final - 2 teams - 1 winner
    • Every round is one-legged, except if a match is a draw and a replay with the other person hosting is done (to be concluded with ET and penos, if needed).
    • Finalist host is picked as the team with the better goal difference over the competition.
    • Teams and draw numbers (1-16) are issued on a first come first serve basis.
    • The draw will be out of a hat each round.
    • Fair play rules are to be the same as with the leagues, with the exception of last man tackling now being allowed. This is do-or-die after all. No second chances.
    • However, if you get a player sent off for this, it must be reported with the match result and you will agree gentlemanly that he is not to be played in the next round. That's round, not match, so he is sent in the first round, he cannot play again until the semi-final).
    • Teams are from the English Championship (will change this in future, this is just a first attempt).
    • Just lads already from the leagues this time thanks, so we can start it quickly and see if it works.

    Good luck!

    Jamescd, we'll start as soon as we get 16. But that'll probably be after Monday, so no worries.

    Gonna end entries for this at midnight. If we only have twelve, there'll be a random draw for 8 people for the first round. Then 4 winners + 4 unpicked will meet in the quarter final and we'll carry on from there.

    Alright boys, here's the moment you were waiting for. We have 14 teams, so to make it even, two 'free passes' were thrown in. Draw was recorded on video and can be viewed here (sponsored by Scrabble). So here are the first roud ties.

    1 - Burnley (jamescd) - Hull (DB10)
    2 - Middlesbrough (Mancho) - FREE PASS
    3 - Leeds (AthAnRi) - Forest (Parawind)
    4 - QPR (MarkSRFC) - Portsmouth (Le King)
    5 - Swansea (kensutz6) - Cardiff (Lamposts)
    6 - Leicester (corcaigh) - FREE PASS
    7 - Norwich (bonescap) - Reading (Public Executor)
    8 - Ipswich (bonkers) - Coventry (Cjayses)

    Good luck everyone. The league's coming up, so let's get to it quickly. I'll make the quarter final draw on Tuesday night. Please post all results and red cards on this thread. If you want to do pre-and-post analysis, I won't complain. Let's go!

    LOLZ at how how much I've already won it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,238 ✭✭✭looder


    Is this only open to active league members?

    How long is it going to run for?

    If it'll be finished in the next 3 weeks, I'll play to make up the numbers, no probs at all (if that's allowed as I'm technically not in the leagues anymore).

    If it's OK,

    Level: Dunno, 27 or 28 I think. haven't played much lately.

    If it's too late, no probs

    EDIT: I see draws been made... ignore this. Best of luck lads

    It'll be over fairly sharpish and if it works, then I'll do another and you can swing right in.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,889 ✭✭✭evad_lhorg


    That draw was a lol. good job

    Leeds United (AthAnRi) 1-1 Nottingham Forest (Parawind)

    Replay:
    Nottingham Forest (Parawind) 1-0 Leeds United (AthAnRi)

    First game was tight, but felt i was worth my win in the second one. Still 1-0 made it a bit nervy.

    Agreed. Only for Schmeichal and a few near misses it wood have been more. Although my flukey loopy dippy shoty of the crossbar had me going.

    Public Executor are you going to be around before the champions league tonight for our game?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 151 ✭✭Public Executor


    Yes :(

    Ah, well played mate! Very solid. Knew it was a mistake to sub McAnuff.

    Norwich 2 - 0 Reading

    Also, get your games played lads. Let me know you've at least tried to contact the guy you've meant to play. If there's no contact, then you go through at his expense. If you both have contacted me, sort it out! You're both clearly online! Draw will be made shortly.
