This evening we reveal the managers who have made it through to the third round of the 13th instalment of our open to all Fantasy Premier League cup competition.

For this latest contest there are more than £1,000 worth of prizes for UK based entrants courtesy of our partner FanDuel, as well as £350 in Amazon vouchers to the top three managers at the end of the competition.

Last year’s winner I Casillas Winning’s score of 55 saw him overcome Tufs to set up a round three clash with Allezlechef. Just 10,000 places separates this pair in the overall rankings.

Gribude is another former cup holder to make it through. He beat Allgonepozzo in round two and faces Cok3y5murf next.

Ex-champ MCH also progresses, after seeing off Shem Bayley. He takes on community regular Rhinos in round three.

Sadly, the second round marked the end of the road for another former winner, Ninja Fit Saints, who was beaten 70-49 by Jurgen.

The highest scoring manager of the round and recipient of a £30 FanDuel credit was DaJoeyNdo Show, whose sensational score of 95 left Stoorey’s tally of 40 for dust and saw him leap from 346,603rd in the overall rankings to 57,443rd.

Teguh D Puncak, who he faces next, is unlikely to be worried though as he sits more than 50,000 places higher within the top 5,000.

The four next high scoring managers, who all receive a £10 FanDuel credit, were Captainjpd, Delt_eple, DJDave1979 and Dogba.

Andy85wsm, the competition’s only Scoutcast representative to make it past the first round, marches on. He beat Lardy to set up a third round tie with Anuliz.

Two other members of our moderator and contributor team also make it through. Greenwindmill will face Archie, while Stilicho squares up to lowlifegimpe in round three.

Other notable match ups in the next round include Lateriser12’s encounter with The TinMan, Parm’s tie with TommyJ and What the Fans Say community article writer Bolivian Seaman’s clash with Al Fresco.

The manager to draw the short straw in round three is 433,854 ranked Malvern Angells. He faces Dempele, who at 177th is the highest placed manager remaining in the tournament.

The second round results can be found via this link, while the full third round draw can be found here.

    At last, someone with a lower rank than me 😎

    1. Hurricane Gilbert

      9 years, 3 months ago

      Cheering for you Andy. Triple Captain Carroll this week? 😉

      1. andy85wsm

        Kane (c) of course

    2. Syd.

      Are you playing Jonty? 😛

  2. Lone Wolf FPL
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    One simple question:

    Pedro (have Costa) or Walcott (have Sanchez)

    1. Syd.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Walcott

    2. Jazz!
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      (have Costa) and (have Sanchez) shouldn't be there, base your decisions off the individuals. Doesn't matter who else you have, all that matters is their individual points. Walcott over Pedro pourmoi.

      1. Lone Wolf FPL
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        You may be right.
        I decided not to go with Spurs mids as they not convinced me with their form plus Wally/Pedro choice gives me enough money to make Morgan -> Alonso next GW.

    3. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Wally

    4. Worzel Gummidge
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Pedro for me.

    5. Sauzée
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Rangers are woefully bad

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        This is why I put Hearts into my Acca

        1. Sauzée
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Good call. Don't think they've had a shot on target.

          1. Syd.
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            2-0 🙂

      2. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        The whole league are.

        1. Dino
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          City might argue that point 😉

    6. Delima
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I think Benteke could be a keeper this season.

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Dreadful player

        1. the axolotl
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          harsh. has his strengths. his strength for instance

      2. Epic Fail
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Would be nailed in my team as a keeper.

        1. Delima
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          that

      3. George Sillett
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        He's listed as a forward.

        1. Delima
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          he's big though.. Could be a keeper.

    7. Delima
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      ...will score enough

      1. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        this

    8. farqy

      riiiiggghhhtttt, please select one of the following:

      1. Wilson & Firmino (0pts)

      2. Kane & either chadli or zaha (-4pts)

      Thank you in advance

      1. Ha.
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        2 with Zaha

      2. Dino
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Is chadli even starting? Phillips looks safer

    9. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      What has happened this season with David de Gea? He has saved them before when the team has been playing poorly, but not now.

      1. the axolotl
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        for quite a few years now, someone or another has stepped up for utd at times and disguised an otherwise relatively poor team. they've probably overshot now a little, in that they're probably not quite as bad as they look

        1. the axolotl
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          maybe martial's turn

          Indeed.

        Coutinho to Mkhitaryan straight swap innit

        1. Ógie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          I wish i had seen this game before i acted last night 🙁

      • Hurricane Gilbert
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Awful defending but nice goal

      • Gnu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Payet really sold the jerseys there.
        Shocking & terrible reaction.

        1. Ha.
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Not watching... what did he do?

          1. Gnu
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            A terrible pass 15 yards up from his own corner flag, poor reaction to Miky when the ball got returned into the danger area.

      • Bolivian Seaman
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Mkhitaryan and Carrick making Mourinho look like an idiot - they should've been starting ages ago

        1. Sauzée
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Absolutely

        2. The Fantastic Mr Fox
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Mourinho bided his time with Miki to give him the right games after the shocker vs city. And its paying off. Its funny how every decision he makes is criticised even when it works out

          1. Jazz!
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            ^^^. Agree.

          2. Gnu
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            That would suggest he is a human being, so I would scratch that reason off the list.

            1. The Fantastic Mr Fox
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Haha

          3. Worzel Gummidge
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Did Mou confirm this did he?

              1. Camp No No
                • 12 Years
                9 years, 3 months ago

                He will after the match. Whenever something goes for him, he will tell that was what he planned all along.

            • Camp No No
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              Yeah, right. Because West Ham in the PL would have been a totally wrong game to play him in. 🙄 Guess points in PL are so overrated. And Burnley and Swans are clearly out of Mkhitaryan's league, could not have played him in those matches.

          4. Dino
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Utd looking very solid now with Jose building from the back like he always does.

            I know some people have an agenda against Jose but most of the fools that are criticising him are only doing so because they are repeating what they are hearing in the main stream media

        3. Ógie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          That is it Mkhitaryan is on the radar big time 2 assists in this game already

          1. Somalion
            • 16 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Very unlucky he didn't have a goal at the weekend. Want to see if he starts the next PL match and how he does.

            1. Camp No No
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              I can definitely wait until they visit Palace. Before that, I'm not very interested in any ManU player.

          2. Worzel Gummidge
              9 years, 3 months ago

              They are playing WHU. Wouldn't get too excited.

          3. The Fantastic Mr Fox
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Rojo loves putting in those long sliding tackles. Hope he doesn't mess up and get carded though

          4. how now brown cow
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Rose or Alonso for the next few weeks?

            1. Ha.
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              I'm probably in the minority but, Rose

              1. how now brown cow
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 3 months ago

                I think Rose has looked the best attacking threat for Spurs this season. I'm sorely tempted.

          5. Delima
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Right, so

            Heaton

            Brunt - Clyne - Holebas
            Hazard - Sanchez - Firmino - Bolasie
            Aguero(c) - Benteke - Austin

            Foster - Fletcher - Kingsley - McNair

            1FT - 2.0 itb

            Don't know what to do best so thinking just McNair to Cedric this week to have enough defenders in case Holebas isn't ready.
            Otherwise i might keep FT..

            Thoughts?
            Thx

                    i wonder if and when utd eventually sell him, will rooney retain a special, borderline inappropriate, affection for his grandparent club?

                random footie video. GK scores late equaliser with bicycle kick in south africa (i think top) league. pretty sure i've never seen a goalie score a bicycle kick.
