Welcome to the Fantasy Football Scout mini-leagues and community competitions round-up after Gameweek 31, when none of the five most popular captains scored more than two points. It caused scores to generally be mediocre, despite 658,984 Wildcards being played in Gameweek 30 and 476,122 in Gameweek 31.
We report on the latest news from the FFS Members Cup, Last Man Standing, the Head-to-Head Leagues, the newly updated FFS Live Hall of Fame and many community mini-leagues.
FFSCOUT OPEN-TO-ALL LEAGUE
Gideon Moss followed his Wildcard with an Assistant Manager chip – Graham Potter (£0.5m) – in Gameweek 31. He leads for a third successive week and fifth time this season in our Fantasy Football Scout mini-league (code n6lb8d) and is now eighth overall.
FFSCOUT COMMUNITY MEMBERS LEAGUE
Atiqui Haque Atique is the new name on top of our Fantasy Football Scout Members mini-league, ranking 132nd worldwide. He came 5,311th in 2017/18.
This is open to anyone with an FFS account, the league code being visible in the SCOUT LEAGUES widget on the signed-in FFS Home Page.
FFS MEMBERS CUP
Gameweek 30 was round one of the second FFS Members Cup of 2024/25.
Former winners rrcmc, Mohd Rodzi, Chaballer and Mayani all won their matches and are safely through to the second round, but the highest-ranked manager of round one (Tiernon Nobody) was beaten 65-59 by Flekken Beacons. That means the highest one left is CasaBanter (460th), who came 1,221st in 2020/21.
This old-school cup run by Fantasy Football Scout should not be confused with those listed on FPL’s Leagues & Cups page.
LAST MAN STANDING
The safety score for Gameweek 31 in TorresMagic’s Last Man Standing competition (LMS) was 53 after hits, with 23 teams eliminated.
It means that 68 are going through to Gameweek 32. To help cover each weekend, LiveFPL’s leaderboard will show its current live statistics.
Six managers were joint-highest Gameweek scorers after hits, with 72 points each. Five of these chose to Wildcard in Gameweek 30 and one waited a few more days.
Roderick Smits followed his Gameweek 30 activation with an Assistant Manager chip being used on Thomas Frank (£0.8m).
HEAD-TO-HEAD COMMUNITY MINI-LEAGUES
Liam McAllister leads for a 12th successive week and 17th time this season in League 1 of MIR’s FFS Head-to-Head Leagues.
The highest scorer in these head-to-head leagues is still Jackson Coker (League 9 Division 104), with 82 points out of a possible 93.
LIVE HALL OF FAME
The FFS Live Hall of Fame has been updated again and is now based on results up to the end of Gameweek 31 but, unlike the FFS Career Hall of Fame, it can only be viewed by Premium Members.
49,751 managers participating in our Fantasy Football Scout and Fantasy Football Scout Members mini-leagues are now ranked in it.
The new top 11 (with their Career Hall of Fame positions in brackets) is as follows:
- 1st (2nd) Ben Crellin (Overall Rank 6,147) – GW30 Wildcard
- 2nd (3rd) Tom Dollimore (OR 7,952) – GW30 Wildcard
- 3rd (77th) Abinav C (OR 145) – GW30 Wildcard

- 10th (8th) Rob Mayes (OR 62k) – GW30 Wildcard
- 11th (-) Łukasz Woźniak (OR 8,320) – GW30 Wildcard
Since the Gameweek 30 update, Fábio Borges is up one place, Luke Williams rises by two and Gideon Moss three, but Łukasz Woźniak has dropped to 11th.
Six managers from the Career Hall of Fame top ten are no longer in the Live Hall of Fame top ten:
- 18th (6th) Michael Giovanni (OR 232k)
- 24th (10th) Dan Wright (OR 190k)
