Who?

MR NINE

I qualified but i took an eight point hit this week so itll likely be a brief run.

jimmii

For scores of 44 270th was the worst ranking to make it through! Guy in 324th got 44 and didn't make it thats pretty unlucky!!

I suppose there were very few remaining places under the guaranteed 45 score.

For GW15? That's when it starts I believe. Snook in myself but 45pts is a high qualifying score, thanks no doubt to the multitude of late entries with above average scores (bad form, FFS)

Wow, with that high a ranking not getting in on 44, I definitely got lucky with my extra point, because I wouldn't have even been close to getting in on the nose.

Up against some guy from the US this weekend. He has Taylor suspended and doesn't have Costa. I'm viewing those as early slight advantages. He is in the top 10k though.

I got quite far last year, but only last 32 or something. 8-10 got all the way to the final I think.

Yeh is 270th was the cut off hard to imagine more than 3 or 4 got through with that score.

I'm up against 'Robs Rovers - Ireland v England - he sits marginally above me in the overall rankings. I'd give myself the edge on fixtures, but could be close. Their ID is 61662

menoscemo

Got Drawn against a team with a Rank of 200k So I'm hopefull enough....

lol, no, my mistake. I thought the first round was the midweek gw. I feel bad enough about taking an 8 point hit, a rare move. If i took an 8 point hit halfway through a gw id be truly ashamed.

yeah it was drastic measures, once off hopefully, was on -4 already before the lineups came in, when they came in i was looking at max 8 outfield starters for the GW - hopefully i don't pay too much for it this week, a positive is that it allowed me to reshape my squad a bit (for the better, i think), which may well save me on hits going forward, as well as the most important obviously, getting more points

sorry, going completely off topic

how does your cup opponents team look compared to your own?

Id like to say weak but i dont wanna jinx it. He has etoo lukaku and welbeck up front so its certainly not your typical team

The draw for the Finn Harps Cup is out. Just got an email there. If I make it through tonight in the FSA League Cup, it'll be a fascinating weekend with 3 cup matches of interest.

Didn't cop your team name actually. That's 9 forum heads so. No derbies. One of you is playing a 12 year old though.

Lads new to all this..

Have I missed the boat with all these cup competitions paid or unpaid??

Only one I know of is the official cup which starts in GW 17/18

With the League Cup ending on January 1st, I'd like to think that leaves lots of time for the actual cup to resume this season.

Will leave that one to a better man than me though.

FFS scout one is free but you've missed it. There's a second one later in the season. The League cup one is for people signed up for the FSA league and qualifiers from last year.

The Harps one we are referring to is from the Finn Harps pay league which a good few from here entered preseason.

Go to the league table and look for them.

I'm getting it tight from guy ranked 900k who captained Austin. Depending on Hutton bps I'll have either a 3 or 5 point lead bit he has Bertrand, Clyne and Pelle tomorrow vs my RVP.

finnharpsboy

looks like tipp top harps knock me out of the harps cup, they currently have 21pts to my 31pts but i only have clyne to go, tipp top harps has coleman and walters to sub in with 13pts between them and ddg mata and long to go

Sheesh, doesn't look good unless RVP finds himself

19 pt lead in the harps cup my DDG against bertrand and wanyama. Opponent will have clark off the bench with 11 if neither start.
All square in FFS cup I have DDG to go opponent is finished. So surely im through the lad I was up against is top 200.

irish son

I'm out of the ffscout cup, lost 44-50, Yaya Toure the difference really.

Through to the next round of the FFS cup. Makes up for CSF knocking me out of the FSA League cup!

I make that just 5 of the 9 forum heads through. Tipp Top Harps ranked 1.7m overall beating finnharps boy the shock of the bunch. My opponent has to be unlucky to go out with the second highest score on these 9 ties.
