The third round of the Members Paddy Power Cup II took place over Gameweek 27, where 128 fantasy managers went head-to-head to edge one step closer to glory. The 64 results can be viewed right here.

This was the round that our reigning champion, Kippax Kikkers, was forced to relinquish his grip on the trophy. A 49 – 34 defeat at the hands of gosh, guarantees there will be a new name on the cup this term.

Also bowing out at this stage is the last of the Scout Contributors, as Pure Olivia got turned over 68 – 45 to Hopes Fears Dreams.

Top-score of the round went to Bob Fossil, who trounced 1nozza‘s score of 68 with an impressive 92 points. Chucky77 also deserves a mention after his 91 – 59 hammering of Pieman.

The unfortunate soul ‘winning’ the wooden spoon award was MB10, after his rather embarrassing 34 – 20 loss to thewoods.

Congratulations to the 64 fantasy managers progressing to the fourth round, the draw for which will be published shortly.

    Williamson a better option than Simpson for a Newcastle defender?

    Is only 4.2 vs. 4.6 for Simpson, but I have Simpson from the start and would only realise 4.3 for him (but the 0.1 is often invaluable)

          I'm 0.1 or 0.2 short for what I want to achieve with my WC.

          Thinking of McCauley or Caulker as alternatives, to achieve this. Newcastle shipped quite a few goals of late

            Newcastle's defence isn't what it once was. Shipping 2 at home to Wolves makes me want no defensive coverage from them. McCauley's a good shout.

        This season and last:

        Simpson - 1 assist, no goals
        Williamson - 0 assists, no goals

        Simpson is more of a card magnet though

    okay guys, i need some advise. My mini league leader is about 40 points ahead of me and is slowly copying my team. Right now we have about 7 identical players. So how do I make up the deficit? Should I start taking hits and change my team or hope to catch up by making unconventional captain choices?

      Ignore him for now. 40 points is nothing with 11 weeks to go. If you're still 40 behind with 6 weeks to go then try and be less conventional. Also, try making two simultaneous transfers every other week. Stops him deducing your transfers.

        I know this because I had a similar lead last year and found it easy to keep matching my rival. He started taking risks, got to within 20 points but finished over 60 behind in the end.

          the problem is that he seems to have the better team overall. I mean his team value is about 3 million more than mine. So the players who are not common he seems to have the better ones. Its kompany versus richards (although I believe kompany is injured now), raylor versus simpson and bale versus mcClean. So its unlikely that i'll be able to make up much ground with the teams as they are.....

      Hmm, not sure - when I saw it it made me feel more like he might not... no real reasoning behind that though. I imagine he will start and if he does then I imagine he has a important role to play

      Same exact injuries and already did 3 transfers for a 4 point hit and had only got rid of Sess. I'm going to wait until we find out more about the Kompany injury before doing any more transfers.

    I had been planning to play Richards and Kelly this week and both are likely to miss out. With other poor defensive choices Huth against Ahelsea and Santon against Arsenal can I justify an 8 point hit for Skrtel and Johnson?

      8 point hit to gain an even chance of say 16 points, think it's unlikely both fixtures will be cleanie. Probably come out about square.

    I think I'm going to keep Sess...misses two tough games then returns for QPR at home. Plus there's no great alternatives. I'll take the .5 price drop at this stage of the season.
