Our FFS Open Cup and FFS Members Cup competitions are nearing their conclusions, with the semi-finals set to take place in Gameweek 23.
There’s a total of £600-worth of prizes on offer across the two tournaments, with a full breakdown towards the bottom of this article.
FFS MEMBERS CUP
Our highest-ranked manager in the FFS Members Cup quarter-finals bowed out, with alblack12 putting an end to ZIKOFLY’s run in the competition.
Mingo dropped out of the top 1k but still did enough to see off Phoenix From The Flames 63-56.
Scrumper and thalliday1985 both had an excellent time of it in Gameweek 22, each moving inside the top 10k with scores of 80 and 93 and seeing off Batmaniac and Congers in thumping victories.

FFS OPEN CUP
Sadly, the spate of recent FPL hacks has even affected our FFS Open Cup.
With one of our quarter-finalists already a ‘Restored’ team after a presumed hack in Gameweek 7, we lost Matjes_taet to more senseless suspicious activity.
The mysterious ‘Restored’ side continued their fairytale run with a victory over Dansen.
Fusen and rocco10 also progressed, with Bruno Fernandes hauls helping them on the way to victories over Icy Hot and Bousy_boozer.

HOW DO THE CUP COMPETITIONS WORK?
The FFS Cup is very similar to the Fantasy Premier League’s own cup game.
Entrants who qualify for the first round were randomly drawn against each other and the winner of the tie is whoever has the highest score from that Gameweek, minus points spent on transfers (like in the original game and in head-to-head scores).
In the event of a draw, the manager highest in the overall FPL rankings after the tie will progress.
