The FFS Cup – Sponsored by FanDuel – A Reminder

Having recently announced the launch of the 13th instalment of our open to all Fantasy Premier League cup competition, we thought we’d give you another reminder to make sure you enter in time.

As we revealed last week, this year’s contest is sponsored by FanDuel, who are donating more than £1,000 worth of prizes for UK based entrants on top of the £350 in Amazon vouchers we are offering to the top three managers at the end of the competition.

In addition, all UK entrants who take part in the cup get a £10 free credit from FanDuel added to their account when they play their first game. This can be used at any time as soon as you register with FanDuel.

Sign up to this latest Cup competition via the entry form here. The deadline for entries is Monday November 7.

Timetable

The qualifying round will take place in Gameweek 11, with the first round running in Gameweek 12.

The first round will consist of 1024 teams and, as usual, all the competition’s previous winners who enter will gain a bye into the first round draw where they will join the top scorers from Gameweek 11. FPL standing will decide who progresses in the event of tied positions. Previous winners must enter to be included.

The cup will then be played out according to the following Gameweek schedule: 

Note that some Gameweeks are skipped due to tight turnaround times.

            Bolasie out for

            A. KDB
            B. Payet

            -for free and I can afford both
            -I would bring in Wallcot but I have Ozil and I am bringing in Mustafi so I am not a fan of having 3 arsenal players

            • 8 Years

            Qualified guess. Kun has a point to prove this gw. Therefore, Kun (C).
            Gw 9 is the new gw 8. 50 points from (C)un incoming.

            On a serious note. Kun owners, what's your thoughts on captaining him this gw?

            1. thep025
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              Going with Sanchez/Walcott i think

              1. Oven Glover
                • 8 Years
                7 years, 8 months ago

                Would if I could. Have Özil and Mane as contenders.

            2. some witty pun
              • 11 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              im on Walcott now

              Southampton are too strong

            3. Gazza2000
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              I think he will be benched again

              1. Oven Glover
                • 8 Years
                7 years, 8 months ago

                That's my concern as well

            4. A.T
              • 13 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              You'd have to be mad as a box of frogs.

                • 8 Years
                7 years, 8 months ago

                Haha. Had a gut feeling about Wilson last week and went the "safe" route with Kun. This week I'm on the crazy train with Kun (C).

                1. A.T
                  • 13 Years
                  7 years, 8 months ago

              No form so I won't be bothering.

              If he doesn't start again I'll be selling.

            7. Nicks93
              • 10 Years

              Not a bad shout but feel Arsenal a better option

          8. Energetics
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 8 months ago

            My gut is to captain Walcott over Sanchez as I am chasing in my mini league?

            Thoughts?

            1. thep025
              • 8 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              I'd say go for it.....I am playing safer with San(c)hez

            2. Brap.
              • 7 Years
              7 years, 8 months ago

              More expensive does not equal safer

              Walcott the form G

            Is Defoe too much Sunderland?

            1. Worzel Gummidge
                7 years, 8 months ago

                Better options IMO. Den/Aus

                  Pool have made special arrangements to get them back asap according to the article so nothing to see here.

                  1. QPR expects... glory!
                    • 13 Years
                    7 years, 8 months ago

                    They did last time too. Firmino didn't go so played. Coutinho? Not so much...

                    1. Worzel Gummidge
                        7 years, 8 months ago

                        As a Firmino owner I am not worried at all. Dont care about any other Pool player 🙂

                      Think the article is saying the have been doing that so far, but the schedule this time around is tighter

                          7 years, 8 months ago

                          Sorry, I should have said Firmino will be fine. Since I have him I was looking at him in isolation but Cout can and probably will be dropped for the PL game as he will actually play the international game.

                      Lot will depend on actual playing minutes i guess but that is pretty punishing and not a great fixture for points either you would think

                    Why can't internationals just bog off.

                    1. Worzel Gummidge
                        7 years, 8 months ago

                        If you have Firmino there is nothing to worry about.

                          That's strange. He has also been called up.

                          1. Worzel Gummidge
                              7 years, 8 months ago

                              Not really strange if you actually look at the minutes he gets. Then, not so strange.

                              1. Worzel Gummidge
                                  7 years, 8 months ago

                            If you don't like them just fake an eye injury to get out of watching them.

                            It's not like many of the players really care either

                          Bench one:

                          A: Snoddy
                          B: Allen
                          C: Austin

                          Attack line:
                          Wally / Sanchez / Firmino / Snoddy / Allen
                          Kun / Lukaku / Austin

                          I'm really hesitating between Snoddy and Allen actually but wanna see if people would bench Austin vs City

                            Snoddy for me

                            The bookies Would suggest benching Snoddy, but it is a tough Call!

                            Do we think Stones will drop in price, he's on -84% at the mo.

                            Can I get some transfer advice for this please? 1 FT, 2.3m ITB

                            Coleman - Holebas - Amat

                            Aguero - Lukaku - Austin

                            Pickford - Smith - Kone - Fletcher

                            A) Antonio > Mane/Lallana and double up on both Arsenal and Pool mids
                            B) Be boring and save FT

                              Boring , reassess next week

                                My thinking is next week with 2 FTs I'd transfer Antonio out anyway, so why don't do it this week for Mane and double up with Firmino for their run of fixtures.

                              Maybe time for a keeper change...

                                I'd rather save since I have a playing one already.
