We’re down to the semi-final stage of the first ever Fantasy Football Scout shield tournament, as four of the community’s top Fantasy managers go head-to-head in one last bid for glory.

This year’s Members Cup runner-up, Eunuch Jelly, is on a collision course with an old adversary as he progressed to the final four, along with Acquafresca – the victorious manager in that final. The Jellyman saw off Giavara555 by a ten-point margin in the last eight to record the second highest Gameweek score in the tournament thanks, in no short measure, to Joe Hart’s 15 point haul. Giavara555’s 12-point hit failed to come off and the former Fantasy Premier League number one was toppled.

Acquafresca’s incredible run of cup form continued with a 5-point victory over “Ricky Smokes Lets Go”. The latter decided against a points hit and that may well have been a deciding factor, along with Eden Hazard’s double Gameweek failure. Acquafresca prevailed, with a solid Gameweek helping him climb to 508 in the FPL rankings.

He will meet MrKK in the semis after his hugely impressive 93-point tally eased him past MileHigh in the Quarters. Now up to 607 in the world, the tussle with Acquafresca will surely be keenly contested. MileHigh can find ample consolation for his defeat from a superb current rank of 53, despite falling ten places in Gameweek 36.

The final tie was just as one-sided, with former Cup winner, Fuzzy Dunlop, demolishing “Tommy Tynan’s Left Shin Pad” by a 17-point margin. His 78 points helped Fuzzy climb to 2025 in the FPL rankings and he will now approach his semi with Eunuch Jelly with some confidence, despite being the lowest ranked manager remaining in the tournament.

Ties will be played over Gameweek 37, leaving the final Gameweek to decide our winner.
