Round one of the Members-only version of the Paddy Power Cup took place over Gameweek 25. It saw 512 fantasy managers go head-to-head, battling it out for a place in the second round. The full set of results can be viewed right here.
Top-score this week went to ANDYCAIRNS, who thrashed Real Ale Madrid 75 – 37. That 38-point margin of victory was the joint-highest, with Real SoSoBad‘s 70 – 32 demolition of isacki matching the feat.
Huge wins were not the story of the round however, as 11 games ended all square (leaving overall rank to split them) and 27 were decided by a single-point. One of those scraping through was our very own Big Dunc, who edged out ChrisHighwind 30 – 29 in an embarrassingly low-scoring affair.
At least that meagre tally takes Big Dunc through, unlike Mark. His woeful 28 sees him make a swift exit from the tournament at the hands of Shimmy.
There was no competition for the wooden spoon award of the round, as no one came close to intuitif‘s impressive score of minus two.
The draw for the second round will be published later this weekend.
