Fantasy Football Scout are pleased to announce the eagerly-awaited return of the Paddy Power Cup. The fifth instalment of the open-to-all free-to-enter cup competition is back, with some fantastic prizes to boot. Your chance to join our previous winners – donnellyc, Jonty, Goonerdave and Ninja_Fit_Saints – in our hall of fame starts now. For full details read on…

What is the Paddy Power Cup?

The Paddy Power Cup is our version of the Fantasy Premier League’s (FPL) Fantasy Cup game. Entrants who qualify for the first round will be 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 tie, the Manager with highest in the overall standing will progress.

How do I enter?

As with the Members Paddy Power Cup, entry for the competition is simple, just follow this link and fill out the form as required. A confirmation email will be sent shortly after you’ve submitted your details to acknowledge your entry has been received. Just like the FPL, multiple entries to the Cup are not permitted. Please ensure that you enter your FPL Team Id details correctly, any entries added incorrectly will not be entered into the qualifying round.

This cup is open to Members and Non-Members alike. A seperate Members only Cup will follow early in the New Year.

When does it start?

All entries received before the Gameweek 12 deadline will be entered into the qualifying round. In this first cup competition we will have 1024 qualifiers for the first round – those 1024 managers with the top scores in gameweek 12 will progress to the first round proper which will be played in gameweek 13. Again, FPL standing will decide who progresses in the event of tied positions.

When will I find out if I’ve qualified?

Results from the qualifying round will be published around 24-hours after gameweek 12 has been completed and the draw for the first round will then follow.

When are the fixtures released?

The fixture list for each round will be published a day or two before each gameweek deadline.

Are there prizes?

Sponsors Paddy Power are supplying the competition with some great prizes and we’re supplementing these with Amazon Vouchers. The prizes break down as follows:

  • Winner – £150 worth of free bets. £50 Amazon Voucher
  • Runner-up – £75 worth of free bets. £30 Amazon Voucher
  • 3rd Place – £50 worth of free bets. £20 Amazon Voucher

Entrants will need a Paddy Power account and be aged 18 and over to be eligible for some of the above prizes. Prizes are also subject to Paddy Power’s terms and conditions.

If you’ve yet to register a Paddy Power account, then you can sign up via this site and get a free £20 when you register and bet £10.

If you’re going to bet with Paddy Power, always gamble responsibly.

          Yep, a seat in the Roller is good enough for me, dont need to go luxury. But imagine the flair points if it comes off. The adulation, the glory.

          RVP is like backing Vettel to win the Grand Prix. Its safe, but not particularly exciting.

      I do realise it's a bandwagon, but at 6m I can't see it working out THAT much worse than say Sess / Walters / Brunt, I think I'm owed a punt after ending up with Petrov on the basis of a conservative "proven points scorer" calculation, but I agree captaining him is absolutely mental.

          They only got shakey when Shawcross was injured - he's back now.
          They should be good for home matches NOT straight after euro matches.
          My only 'expensive' def is Enrique and I like it like that. Means I can pack the midfield.
          I've got about 3.5 in the bank , so my plan is to get Lamps soon and end up with Lamps/Nani/VDV/Silver/ Sinclair midfield 🙂

But thatg is interesting on the defender front to upgrade the midfield... might have to look into that. Think i would more look at Drenthe//Sess for now tho haha!

      Tricky. I've got Walters and Sess at the moment. Thinking of swapping one of them for Drenthe in GW16.
      If i was picking from scratch -i'd prob pick Sess

      I've got Walters and I've got far more pressing transfers at the minute so I'm sticking with him.

      If I was on a WC I might be tempted by Drenthe but I'm a bit concerned about his love of cards - I can see minus scores in his future!

      Do not transfer out a talented keeper who plays 90 minutes each week for a bandwagoned player who will lose his spot come Christmas. If you're going to get rid of Given for anyone (which is unwise), get Vorm, Howard or Begovic.
