    Damn. Going out after Ivanovic scored. Was 7 points ahead but even if they concede now I'll be gone (barring some incredible bonus points which is unlikely).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,136 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    I'm on 44, opponent's on 24

    I have just Mata to play, he has Luiz, Hazard and Bennett.. I'm a bit worried


    I'm out if Mata gets 2 points.. shocking


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,763 ✭✭✭Jax Teller


    Need Mata to do something to have any hope of going through against a shocking team .


  • Registered Users Posts: 250 ✭✭blockedPaT


    I'm on 42, my opponent's oppents on 26 who only had 6 players playing this week, his captain wasn't but he has Gerrard as VC who'll now be captain :( and Moses still playing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,256 ✭✭✭✭km79


    My opponent has a front line of Ameobi and Holt. Rooney was a sub :@ his captain is .......Evra :( I'm ahead 51 to 48 . All players have played so now it's down to bonus points .....evra will proablly get some but so should my captain Silva


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,806 ✭✭✭q2ice


    If the chelsea game stays as is then I will go through on goals scored (4-2). Shocking!!!

    Completely forgot about BPs. :D
    Looking like a good week in spite of my own stupidity


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    safely through against a zombie team.....that still had aguero as captain alongside rooney and ba upfront so wasn't a for gone conclusion.

    He got an assist

    Very Squeaky Bum Time. I have 39 points pre bonus, opponent has 31 points, 8 on the bench, pre bonus.

    :eek:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,091 ✭✭✭brian plank

    I'm 1 point ahead before bonus points.

    If we draw then I'm out on goals scored (3-2).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    Through easily enough barring a disaster with the BP's.

    He captained Rooney :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,912 ✭✭✭kilburn


    6 points behind now before bonus points if we draw its 1-1 on goals scored

    What does it look like on goals conceded?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,136 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    Level on points before BPs :(

    The chap I'm playing has Luiz and Hazard, will they get the 3 and 2?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,912 ✭✭✭kilburn

    I would go through 9-8


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,370 ✭✭✭✭8-10


    Winning by 31pts before bp's....I think I'm safe in this round! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,210 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Does the goals conceded rule count for the whole squad or just the 11 who scored points?

    Just the 11 that earn you points.

    Ramires will be in the mix I reckon. 2 goals off the bench.

    I'm level before bonus too. Comes down to Skrtel, Walcott, Mignolet, Nastasic v Ivanovic, Begovic and Gera.

    Nervous.

    Edit: Taarabt and Toure bonus points get me through by a point. Lovely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I'm playing an inactive player who has Ameobi as captain. He's been getting two points from him nearly every week and of course the week he plays me the guy goes and scores.

    And Ameobi got 3 bonus points. :(

    My cup game is extremely tight. Think I'm one ahead before BPs are done and dusted. Gonna go right to the wire.

    I got 1 bonus point, she got 8 so I'm out as well.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,065 ✭✭✭✭eh i dunno


    71 points and getting knocked out of the cup


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,136 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    Well I'm out of the cup, 50 to 51 was the final score

    Why Shawcross didn't get bonus points this week is beyond me considering he's been getting them the last few weeks for doing nothing


  • Registered Users Posts: 250 ✭✭blockedPaT


    I'm out, 48 to 44 and 34 of his points were from Gerrard


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,912 ✭✭✭kilburn


    Out of the cup I got 1 BP and he got 8


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 712 ✭✭✭Devia


    Comfortably through but my opponent was well above average even though he's never made a transfer. He had 3 chelsea players with Hazard captain. I'd say there's definitely a few inactive teams that were set up for the Chelsea DGW at the start of the season. They'll cause a few upsets.

    The top scorer this week had 101 points with no Chelsea players! And he hasn't made a transfer all season. Very odd


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I edged out my opponent 58-54. Close one. :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 644 ✭✭✭Dice75

    Exact same :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33

    I won 56-54. Who'd have thought Mertesacker's BPs would be so vital?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,195 ✭✭✭irish son


    Very lucky to beat my opponent 46-43. If Clichy started yesterday I would be out. He is an inactive player and only 9 of his players played.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭OctavarIan


    Knocked out in the first week by an abandoned account for the second year running. He only fielded eight players and had Fellaini as captain. Of course he had Hazard as vice captain, Luiz and TWO Arsenal defenders :rolleyes:

    I'm only around 1,660,000 places above him like :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    Won 60-38


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,689 ✭✭✭joeKel73


    Hadn't heard of this cup craic until today. So far so good anyway, won 57 - 38.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,370 ✭✭✭✭8-10


    A point short of doubling my opponents score.

    93-47, I won by 46pts. Solid start!

    Got 60 points, 27 ahead before Chelsea played....torres cpt ivan and hazard,
    Surprised how pissed of I am about it...lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,806 ✭✭✭q2ice


    I got knocked out 65-60. Got 68 points for the week with a point hit of -8. My fabulous hits gave me 2 points extra. If I had't taken the hit it wouldve been 72-65.


  • Registered Users Posts: 163 ✭✭NN215


    damn you hazard.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,838 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    54-48,Got there but a funny week,manages to stay inside top 50k but not really happy with my team...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,689 ✭✭✭joeKel73


    See this update today? Might affect some of the close calls mentioned here;

    I won 56-54. Who'd have thought Mertesacker's BPs would be so vital?

    Ehhh...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Up against a fellow Irishman this time. I'm a good bit ahead of him overall but he has a side that could cause me problems. Quite concerned about this one.

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,998 ✭✭✭grohlisagod


    Turns out I went out on goals scored thanks to Gibbs getting the bonus point. Irritating.

    I think I've only won one cup game in 4 years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 981 ✭✭✭amber69


    Drawn a zombie should go through handy after scraping through 1st round.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,689 ✭✭✭joeKel73


    Up against a zombie too, on 732 points. They got 64 on the last gameweek though, Modric is Captained so Suarez is upgrading from VC and they had Ivanovic and Skrtel getting good points at the back.

    Hopefully they'll not strike lucky this week and I'll survive!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,623 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    My opponent this week probably only has like 6 players for this week. He does have Torres as captain though and doesn't change his team so I do have to be a tiny bit nervous all the same.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,113 ✭✭✭the whole year inn


    "Kagawa's Jap's Eye" is who im up against, and at the start of the season they made me change it from "dr cock and balls" wheres the justice.
