FFS Cup

Fantasy Football Scout – Paddy Power Cup V – Qualifying Results

23 November 2011 1875 comments

Akers

An astonishing 2,216 fantasy football teams did battle last weekend, in an attempt to qualify for the first round proper of Fantasy Football Scout’s Paddy Power Cup V. With our four previous winners safely installed in next weeks opener, there were only 1,020 places up for grabs…

As expected, the standards were exceptionally high and an automatic qualification score of 62 was set. [Remember, this is after points spent on transfers are deducted.]

A total of 990 fantasy managers made that grade, meaning that the 108 managers stranded on 61 had to rely on their overall rank to fill the remaining 30 spots. The full list of results can be found right here.

Qualifying by the skin of his teeth is 45,465th in the world, woodpecker, who takes the 1,020th and final spot. In contrast, 45,750th in the world, don parcheesi, misses out by the narrowest of margins (a single transfer).

Commiserations to everyone who misses out – a list which includes all but five of the Scout Contributors.

The draw for Round One will be made shortly and will go live on the site at least 24-hours before the gameweek 13 deadline.

Santos a better shout than Verm up to the Jan wildcard? He's a pretty average defender, but very attacking and his stats are great. Would also mean I can get Jags instead of Hibbert next week. Thoughts?

  I see you asked this a few times. Personally I would go Santos and Jags. Both have attcking potential, and Santos has better stats than Verm when neither get a goal/assist. Santos got a BP in the last game. Hibbert does nothing attack wise. Jags BP potetial as well.

    Yeah, still undecided but am now swaying towards Dunne -> Santos this week and then either Woody -> Ward or Woody & Moses -> Jags & Ferguson (2 freebies) next week. Which of those 2 moves do you think are best next week?

        Lets agree to disagree. I thought he was excellent going forwards and defending tonight. Very strong in the tackle, and some neat tricks going forwards to retian posession. Gives us a calmness at the back.

    He's not the best defender, but I wouldn't go that far. That said, being a good defender doesn't get you points in FPL - playing attacking football, getting assists and goals, does.

Since Chelsea visited Loftus Road they were 3 points off of the top of the League, top of their group in the Champions League & Villas Boas was the new Mourinho. Now they are 12 points off of the top, there hopes of qualifying for the last 16 are in the balance and AVB is under severe pressure!

  I think all the AVB media criticism is harsh. He's taking over at a time of decline which is a result of short-term buying etc. The squad is ancient, and some players, namely Terry and Lampard should be moved on. Their legendary status, along with the lack of confidence in AVB means that won't happen though.
  
  Big overhaul needed, Luiz was a good defender until he moved beside mega-slow Terry. Still has potential.

      I've thought he's past it for the past two or three seasons to be honest. For some reason he hasn't been singled out to the same extent as Terry in the media recently, I guess it's because he's still been scoring goals despite the consistent non-existent performances.
      
      Whenever he's been dropped/rested in the league this season, we've performed much better. Like in the second half at United, and in the home game against Swansea - probably our best performance of the season. AVB started so promisingly by no longer making Lampard a guaranteed starter, but in recent weeks he's been playing all the time.

        he wasn't anywhere to be seen tonight to be fair. I hope AVB gets time, he does seem to have his work cut out though. i'm gutted coz i waded in on Chelsea for the league before they lost their last 3 games but i've got a covering bet on united, The only thing is that even they are looking pretty average just now. Strange days in the prem this year. Will be interesting to see how city handle the next few games.

        United look so average at the minute, the City result has badly affected them I reckon.
        
        City will have full concentration on the league after the Bayern Munich match and will win the league with a few points to spare in my opinion!

        I fear they might too.
        
        I think Ferguson knows efficiency and mentality aren't gonna halt City, money needs to be spent. Centre-mid is a joke. Unfortunately the best options would be cup-tied if they came in January. I think, and have said for a while, Javi Martinez should be a prime target. Unfortunately I never seem to see him linked at a move away from Bilbao. He'll likely stay.

        Okay, How about Dunne & Woody to Santos and say Brown? For me you need to get rid of both Dunne and Woody. Don't do Moses to Fergy as that will leave you with lessbench coverage. If not, I like Vermand Naylor, as both got good fixtures.
        
        Don't worry about lack of MUN, CHE or LIV coverage. It won'y stop you scoring points.

        I already have Brown.... Woody has to go, but doesn't have to be this week as Santos, Wilko & Brown will start. It's weeks 14,16 & 17 where I have defensive problems. Naylor has poor fixtures those weeks so I was thinking Ward/Hibbert for their great rotation and fixtures in gw14,16 & 17. Will probably get Ward due to Hibbert's zero attacking potential.

He has not been injured, had a knock from training dough before the Benfica game, that is why he did not even make the bench. Could start next week, but long term he should be gotten rid of.

        Haha me too, my team has completely changed into something im happy with now, just got to shift ferguson now, and face the dilemma of whether to keep torres as he 'might' play in the wolves game, bringing in ade for suarez this week though.
        
        Haha we did say it, and it's happening, so glad! RVP is the guy that has made this happen though, i thank him so much lol, he will keep it going, without a doubt.
        
        Haha 4o off you is good enough for me as your doing fairly well ya'self, saving a tranny isnt a bad idea, i will be doing in a few weeks, just still needs tampering with a little with forward line. May even bring in ade and chico in for torres and suarez, would of scored much more points if i'd got rid of those two!....you going for bale at all? 🙂

      He will play and get a rest for the carling cup game and the final champ league game IMO. RVP(C) FTW!

Does synonym have a synonym? Kompany - Santos, think this is my move.

  I'm doing it as it is great for the next 3 GW's then I will probably get Richards/Kompany.

    Home to Flimflam & Everton, Wigan away in the middle, sounds like the sandwich for me.

      Large attacking potential and 0.8% ownership. Seems too good to be true.
