I'm out. Needed 8pts from Vermaelen & C Cole. They'll get half that at most

i've never celebrated a west ham goal.....but i did then and thank god it wasnt cole too!

joeKel73

Lot of points flooding in tonight!

The FPL site is struggling, the cup table script might not get all the teams updated until it settles down.

Congrats. Verm didn't even make 60

roryc

I've gone from a massive outsider to a slight fav...

CSF will be pretty unlucky if I end up beating him.

Swiper the fox

I'm under pressure here, I think another Santi goal could put me out.

alchemist33

3 points behind. Probably need Podolski to get 3 baps to tie. Unless a lucky yellow card happens

MikeCork2009

I have crept ahead in my tie, 81-79. It's on a knife edge though!!!!! Another Arsenal goal, not involving Walcott would make it 79-78 to me and don't want to even think about cards.

roryc

As it stands it's 78-78. If Walcott picks up a BP I should go through. Jussi is on 2 saves though so if he picks up another that's an extra point which will probably knock me out.

G1032

Looks like I'll go through. By the skin of my teeth with 92 points + whatever Walcott bonus, if any. Think I'm going to win by a point.

Edit that. We are both going to be on 92 points before Walcott bonus. Both of us have him as captain.

Edit 2: How is the winner decided when it's a draw?

KevIRL

Going out 91-90 once Cameron subs in for Luiz for my opponent.

Swiper the fox

Phew!! Looks like I've taken F1ngers scalp here by the skin(pardon the pun) of my teeth.

virtual handshake from here, unlucky F1ngers.

Nah, you're 4 points ahead.
Close though.

roryc

Currently losing 79-78 thanks to Jussi's 90th minute save. If Walcott get's a BP then we'll see what happens.

It's decided first on the number of goals scored by the first 11. If that doesn't settle it then it's decided by the number of goals conceded. If that still doesn't settle it it goes to a coin toss.

MikeCork2009

Through 81-79 I believe. Was behind right up until the death. Well played blockedpat.

MikeCork2009

Just a query. How will the next round work? Is it winner game 1 vs game 2 as in Joe's table or is it a free draw again and if so will the draw be televised :-)

unkymo

I'll be going through.

Leading 94-85 against prettyboy81.

Santi Carzola being the difference between us.

grohlisagod

Balls. Only saw this now. Made the final last year and all.

Hogey007

83 points pre bonus and not even close to going through, well done to my opponent yeatscounty on getting into the next round.

8-10

This nip and tuck head to head stuff really makes me miss fantasy baseball. Roll on April.

I saw the 5-1 scoreline and my heart nearly stopped. Didn't get a chance to relax until I saw the FPL site. It must be sickening going out on 83+ points. Hard luck, you gave me one hell of a battle.

irish son

Im out 90-92 to Slatts, both have Walcott captain so will probably end 92-94, Carzola scoring tonight swung it for him. If you told me at the start of the week I'd get 90 and still lose I would have laughed at you, very high standard on here.

Best of luck!!

CSF

You also only need Walcott to get 1 bonus to grab the win on goals conceded. I'm guessing Podolski has the 3 and Giroud the 2 so I'm hoping against hope that Wilshere, Cazorla or Collison can steal me an unlikely victory.

What score did you get this GW, out of interest?

jolim24601

1st rvp scalp is hanging on my wall. who's next?

El Horseboxo

Reckon I'm through. Don't think my opponent had Poldi which should put a bit of daylight between us.

1 bonus point for Walcott. Well done.

Hogey007

BP's are up

giroud 3
podolski 2
walcott 1

joeKel73

Table updated: http://www.fsacup.com

Very high standard, with an average of 85!

LostBoy101

Congrats to my opponent, cyberwaste

dahat

In by 6,glad to be through....though no DGW next round so it will be trickier though it will be a blanket RVP captain for everybody

Ouch, shocking luck! Should have backed myself pre-match

So I've got knocked out of the main cup after drawing and gone through in this one after drawing. At least it's not boring...

prettyboy81

So long, fair well, until next year people!!!

ghosttown

Unlucky Alchemist33, 95 and I still knocked you out. Thought you had me last night with Pod.
Exciting stuff !

It just would have given you an indication of how you might have gotten on, but to make you feel better about missing out, you can assume you would have been knocked out, seeing as the average was a crazy 85!

Iused2likebusts

Fizman beat me by 10 pts no complaints. Was good to see neither of us made a short term move of bringing in an arsenal attacker for one week to give an edge. Hope you go on and win it nice to be knocked out by the winner and all that.

Scorpion Sting

This forum has an incredibly high standard. Can't believe there are players scoring over 90 and still going out. My 82 seems insignificant in comparison to some of the top scores this week. Well done to dahat and everyone else who made it through the first round proper, I'll be back next year hopefully!

FutureGuy

Just checked and I see that I beat Lemlin's missus 89-88!!!

Haha in your face Lemlins missus. No way I'm going out to a girl lololo....

Oh wait, I took a 4 point it...

ggs :pac::pac::pac:

keane2097

Needed Sagna or Noble to do something last night, not to be but no shame losing to Mr Nice Guy. BOL.

I told you those points hits would be the death of you. You should have listened to your old pal Rory

Easy Rod

Well done Aquals, solid 9 point win. I was bang on average for the week with 85.

Thanks Easy Rod! You had me worried with your three DGW players, compared to my one, so I do feel fortunate to have squeezed past. Best of luck in the other cup!

Quiet peasant! I don't mingle with riff-raffs scoring less than 1400.

Funnily enough, I'd have scored the very same score had I not taken the points hit :pac: Expected Chelsea and Luiz to condede, but he didn't even play and so Clyne would have come in. Otherwise, would have been up points for the point hit.

Cheers mate. I'd be very much against making specific moves for cup games. Better off picking a team to suit your season, and if you progress in cups it's well and good. Although it has to be said, this format of the cup definitely adds to the whole FF game.

Fowler87

91 and out of the cup in the first week. Wilshere didnt do enough in the end:o

EDIT: I also blame Dzeko for that horrible miss at the end of the city game :pac:
