FFS Cup

FFS Paddy Power Cup X – Sixth Round Draw

This evening, we roll out the sixth round draw of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup X, as sponsored by Paddy Power, and look back at the conclusion to the fifth round ties.

Jimbojunior emerged as the top scoring manager in the Gameweek 19 match-ups, with a score of 54 points earning him £25 worth of free bets with Paddy Power and a round six showdown with Dub. Another high scorer was Mediocre Men, whose tally of 53 points proved too much for Granville’s score of 35.

Among the remaining 32 managers who made it through to the sixth round, as many as 13 are in the top 1,000. Never Trust Lukaku continues to be the competition’s highest ranked manager – he sits in 10th overall and faces Aaron Ramessi in round six.

Other notable round six ties are round four’s highest scorer United Nations, who faces HVT. Meanwhile, Gimli son of Gloin takes on Luke Costello, who is 42nd overall and the second highest ranked manager remaining in the tournament.

The full list of fifth round results can be found here, while the sixth round draw in full can be found here.

Good luck to those involved in the weekend’s action. In the meantime, though, if you’re looking for more information on the Scout Cup schedule and prizes available, click this link for a more thorough rundown.

  7. Lallana_

    Just a note to say the boss rested me for the Burnley game,I am not injured...!I really hope to be involved against Sunderland! #ComeOnCity!

    So he'll play.

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS

      HOPE

      1. the axolotl
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        course he'll play now. pelle underestimated burnley

    2. copps
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      nice!

    3. the axolotl
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      get in yaya. great news.

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        He got rest for the last part of the previous match, and he's off to ACON soon. What the hell was Pelle resting him for ?!? Not to mention the fact he's on more than 200K per week. Laughable....

        1. the axolotl
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          honestly think he thought they'd breeze past burnley, and if they did it would have been "great management". a gamble which backfired. maybe he had a very very slight injury.

  8. Every Dog Has Its Day
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years

    Costa -> Ings or Barnes?

    I can get Fabregas then

    1. heraty88
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Madness! Don't see burnley doing a whole lot despite fixtures

      1. Gashead9
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Trippier maybe an option in defence though for Burnley.

        They have proved to be quite hard to breakdown at home

  9. dehat
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    sterling or lallana ?

  10. FPL Blow-In

          Kepp him until Aguero is back, Utd have some good fixtures

  13. JayJ
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Is it time to swap Sanchez for Cazorla?

    1. Gooner97
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      For Silva maybe

      1. JayJ
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        I already have Silva.

        Thinking Chadli and Sanchez to Hazard and Cazorla but means i have to lose Terry as I have Costa and Fabregas.

    2. Firmy

      Great news 🙂 .

  18. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Really naive of Pallegrini to rest Yaya and him heading off in a weeks time. Amateur.

    1. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Quite amateurish that the players he fielded couldnt hold a 2-0 lead at home to Burnley also....

      1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Agreed, with their best player and holding midfielder this would not have been the outcome

        1. Hibbo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          You'll never know because he didnt play.

          1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            Your great at stating the obvious. Why bother posting

            1. Hibbo
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              Because I disagree with you calling the man who managed last years league champions an amateur.

        2. GREENDREAMS11
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          no excuses City should be turning over the likes of Burnley with or without him, didnt Yaya start against Stoke.

          1. Hibbo
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            100% he did, 90 minutes. The wouldnt have got that result with Yaya playing, oh, wait...

            1. GREENDREAMS11
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              exactly, City got caught out, they thought it was all done and dusted and got mugged by a team who came out fighting. They shouldnt be making these kind of mistakes in all fairness

              1. Hibbo
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 12 Years
                9 years, 10 months ago

                no not professional footballers, league champions, and huge earners regardless of Yaya playing or not. Losing a 2-0 lead at home to Burnley is a disgrace too often managers get the flack when do players take responsibility for being shite?

    Do I play Boyd(New) + Yaya(Sun) or -4 transfer for Downing(WBrom) + Sterling(Lei)

  27. heraty88
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Can't understand all the benteke love. Why? Have I missed something? Villa are woeful going forward. Lowest amount of goals scored in whole football league!

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Great fixtures until WC.

    2. McSauce
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      ye what Torres said, for m I got him last week for a punt for his 4 best fixtures of the season

    3. Podge
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Most of their hard home matches are out of the way now, they have pretty much the bottom 10 at home from now on.

    4. heraty88
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I just feel he hasn't done much and they're terrible going forward... I can't see him scoring more than one with the way there playing. Real lack of standout strikers at the min with Rooney playing deep, Everton out of form, no Sturridge and city strikers.

  28. In Bale We Trust
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Could this mean Yaya is in the bad books or just rested? Why rest him when's off to ACON in a week? Also why did Pellegrini BS?

  29. Gimli son of Gloin
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Can't believe Sterling hasn't been arrested for that brutal assault last night.

    1. Podge
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I bet that poor wee defender cried himself to sleep last night 🙁
