Welcome to the Fantasy Football Scout mini-leagues and community competitions round-up after Gameweek 30, when Bruno Fernandes (£10.2m) notched his sixth consecutive home double-digit haul and was the only one of the six most popular captains to collect more than two points.
Here, we report on the latest news from the Members Cup, Head-to-Head Leagues, Last Man Standing, Live Hall of Fame and many community mini-leagues.
FFS MEMBERS CUP
Gameweek 30 was actually the qualifying round for our 20th FFS Members Cup, and there were 283 entries.
The 256 teams that achieved 47 points or more, after hits, qualified for round one, as did those who had exactly 46 alongside an overall rank of 250,973rd or better. The other 27 were eliminated.
Six of the former winners entered: Mohd Rohzi, Mayanyi, Drizzle, Rossaldinho, rrcmc and Chabs. They received byes into round one, but all beat the qualifying score regardless.
The highest-ranked qualifiers were Matthias99th (1,482nd) and Pulisic 4 President (1,492nd).
This old-school cup run by Fantasy Football Scout should not be confused with those listed on FPL’s Leagues & Cups page.
FFS HEAD-TO-HEAD LEAGUES
MIR’s FFS Head-to-Head Leagues were updated on Wednesday evening and now show the positions after Gameweek 30.
So far this season, the updates to points and scores have needed to be done manually after the end of each Gameweek. However, during the international break, there’s a plan to get a new automated script working on the live system, meaning we can return to overnight updates whenever a match has been played the day before.
Ahmed Shahin (Professor Bear) is the new leader of League 1, following Ville Tuominen‘s loss to The Magician.
Samuel Swain (League 8 Division 106) is still the highest scorer in the Head-to-Head Leagues, with 79 points out of a possible 90. He is now 2,838th overall.
LAST MAN STANDING
The safety score for Gameweek 30 in TorresMagic’s Last Man Standing competition was 54 after hits, where 24 teams will be removed.
It means that 90 are going through to Gameweek 31. The LMS leaderboard shows the highest post-hit scores, plus teams inside the danger zone.
BigMan Bakar was the highest scorer, thanks to double-digit joy from captain Fernandes, Dominik Szoboszlai (£7.0m) and Marcos Senesi (£5.1m), rising to 1,455th overall. He came fourth in 2014/15 and has had another two top 4k finishes since then.
FFS HALL OF FAME
The FFS Live Hall of Fame was updated again on Tuesday and is now based on results until the end of Gameweek 30 but, unlike the FFS Career Hall of Fame, it can only be viewed by Chief Scouts (premium members).
55,725 FPL managers participating in our Fantasy Football Scout and Fantasy Football Scout Members mini-leagues are now ranked in the live version.
The live top 10 (with their Career Hall of Fame positions and current overall ranks in brackets) is:
- 1st (5th) – elevenify.com (OR 1,708th)
- 2nd (2nd) Tom Dollimore (OR 12,882nd)
- 3rd (22nd) Uz Ray (OR 460th)

- 9th (-) Harry Daniels (OR 46,567th)
- 10th (27th) Simon MacNair (OR 11,904)
Since the Gameweek 29 update, the only change sees Harry Daniels overtake Simon MacNair.
Four Career Hall of Fame top 10ers are no longer that high in the live version:

- 27th (6th) Rob Mayes (OR 161,808th)
