FFS Cup

Fantasy Football Scout Cup VIII – Fourth Round Draw

Heading into the Fourth Round of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup, as sponsored by Paddy Power, we’re searching for a new manager to lift the trophy after defending champion Wild Rover was beaten by Hillbillypete in last weekend’s head-to-head.

This means we’re down to the last 128 Fantasy managers, with Hillybillypete now set to face The Boot this time around. There are just two former champions left in the hat –  Goonderdave, who takes on Pryston North EndFC, and sleepingmaster, who is up against a top 10K-ranked opponent in Albany City.

Moderators Applebonkers and Spencer remain in with a shout of the silverware – they’ll face Noyb and HyperloopingCrazy respectively over Gameweek 16.

Looking at some of the site regulars still in the draw, the likes of EpicFAIL is up against Championblues. The Sarjeant looks a rank (poor pun alert) outsider in his match up with Eddy3161, who currently sits inside the top 5,000, the 3rdTurd (2,804 overall) is the favourite to see off g-doo (61,612) , while old-school poster RaspingDrive goes up against Inspector Gadget.

Three of the top 1,000 FPL managers are lying in wait in the next round. They are Tony Hibbert’s Love Child, who is up against Real Mayonnaise, giuliop11, who will square up to luke89carpenter, and Snella FC, who shall take on Andy Paps for a place in the Fifth Round next weekend.

As always, we highlight the top-scoring manager across the previous set of fixtures. Last week Bedknobs and Boonsticks and Woeisme both registered a round-high tally of 85 points – this time around, Goaldigger and Ajax stand in the way of the in-form duo’s respective progress.

If you’re one for nostalgia and are keen to see the Round 3 results, you can click here for the full lowdown. Otherwise, click here for the Fourth Round 4 details.

Once again, good luck to those still in with a shout.

    I've decided to Captain Suarez, at least the optimism lasts longer... And he is in the last televised game, do you really want to be watching that live in glorious HD having spunked your Captain earlier? 😉

        Sometimes you need to take that hit in order to free up funds (selling a costly D or GK) to boost yer MF or Forwards.

          im facing the same dilemma.
          although I will ditch Ozil and get him back GW 20 or so.
          Personally, I would only have to pay 0.2 more to get him back, which might be off-set by other player's rises in the meantime.

            Hmmm, putting it that way I would sell for what I paid for him so can get back easy enough as long as I don't spend the extra.

      Fonte/Coleman/Jags

      I'm all in on Cardiff/Everton D!! I think they should both get cleanies, or at least one pair will.

    hey Bubz. just a point about your (dis)regard for those who start non-players. i've done that a number of times. it ain't an attempt to deceive people or nuthin. my reason is because LOADS of my money league rivals, through the years, ALWAYS get players of the bench. (because they make frickin crazy transfers). i'd hardly ever get anyone off the bench, so my score would always be as stated on the tin, while at least half my rivals would get an end of week boost while i would fall relative to them, so in order to keep the scores more accurately representative i'd play a red flag if i had him. if they get someone off the bench(which they practically always did), then dang it so will i

      Ditto. My 'rival' thinks everyone will just go for Suarez again this week. His logic then being if you want to play safe go Suarez, if you're happy to risk a drop in rank, then go for someone else (Aguero, Lukaku or Rooney). You can usually tell the safe pick from the captain poll, and captain sensible. But neither of those things seem to be of any use this week and I'm not sure Suarez is the 'safe' pick.

      It rather depends who you took out.

      I've taken one hit in 1.5 seasons and it was for 12 points and it kickstarted this season in a massive way from 600,000 to 6,000.

      Good luck - team looks good now - need Newcastle to keep winning.
