Following an exceptionally high scoring second round there are now no former winners left in our open-to-all Fantasy Premier League Cup competition.
All four ex-champions to survive the first round departed at the second stage, which took place during Gameweek 31’s limited set of fixtures.
Reigning champion TH14 was seen off 85-82 by Ilovebaps , A Manager Has No Name was beaten 107-100 by horlicks esq, MCH succumbed to The dinkum donuts 82-78 and Wild Rover failed to overcome Gloria Kanchelskis in their 86-81 clash.
Despite just four matches taking place in Gameweek 31, there were 41 managers who returned a minimum of 100 points.
The second round’s highest scoring was dmcqt. He notched 128 points, rockets from 28,412nd to 7,475th in the overall rankings and earns a round three encounter with 232,058-placed The Brown Casanova.
Despite dipping ten places overall to 48th, thisisdiz remains the highest ranked manager. Norman conquest (rank 69,117) is the unfortunate manager to draw this high-flyer in the third round.
