This evening we reveal the managers who have made it through to the third round of the 13th instalment of our open to all Fantasy Premier League cup competition.

For this latest contest there are more than £1,000 worth of prizes for UK based entrants courtesy of our partner FanDuel, as well as £350 in Amazon vouchers to the top three managers at the end of the competition.

Last year’s winner I Casillas Winning’s score of 55 saw him overcome Tufs to set up a round three clash with Allezlechef. Just 10,000 places separates this pair in the overall rankings.

Gribude is another former cup holder to make it through. He beat Allgonepozzo in round two and faces Cok3y5murf next.

Ex-champ MCH also progresses, after seeing off Shem Bayley. He takes on community regular Rhinos in round three.

Sadly, the second round marked the end of the road for another former winner, Ninja Fit Saints, who was beaten 70-49 by Jurgen.

The highest scoring manager of the round and recipient of a £30 FanDuel credit was DaJoeyNdo Show, whose sensational score of 95 left Stoorey’s tally of 40 for dust and saw him leap from 346,603rd in the overall rankings to 57,443rd.

Teguh D Puncak, who he faces next, is unlikely to be worried though as he sits more than 50,000 places higher within the top 5,000.

The four next high scoring managers, who all receive a £10 FanDuel credit, were Captainjpd, Delt_eple, DJDave1979 and Dogba.

Andy85wsm, the competition’s only Scoutcast representative to make it past the first round, marches on. He beat Lardy to set up a third round tie with Anuliz.

Two other members of our moderator and contributor team also make it through. Greenwindmill will face Archie, while Stilicho squares up to lowlifegimpe in round three.

Other notable match ups in the next round include Lateriser12’s encounter with The TinMan, Parm’s tie with TommyJ and What the Fans Say community article writer Bolivian Seaman’s clash with Al Fresco.

The manager to draw the short straw in round three is 433,854 ranked Malvern Angells. He faces Dempele, who at 177th is the highest placed manager remaining in the tournament.

The second round results can be found via this link, while the full third round draw can be found here.

    Antonio off injured

  2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Don't understand why bilic doesnt just start payet down the centre very game

    He only just moved central now?
    No wonder he looks annoyed

    1. Jazz!
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      Better as an inside left forward imo.

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 20 days ago

        He looks so much better in no 10 no?

        I just think he drifts too much out the game on the wing and doesn't track back enough

        1. Camp No No
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 20 days ago

          Fully agreed. During all his career, he has always been at his best as no. 10, and always slowly disappeared when put on flank.

    2. Ógie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      He definitively is not happy it is written all over his face what ever is up with him

    3. Hurricane Gilbert
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 20 days ago

      Maybe it is because he is a world class player playing in a team full off trash?

      1. Camp No No
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 20 days ago

        West Ham has a decent squad. Bilic just isn't a very good manager.

        1. how now brown cow
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 20 days ago

          I think there's some right rubbish in there. Spent a lot of money on average players (not including Ayew in that)

          1. Camp No No
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 20 days ago

            Well, yeah, some are completely mediocre, like Zaza and such, but they also have a lot of very decent players, although it often looks like they have been bought just for the sake of buying rather than for the sake of building a balanced team.

            Of course, Payet stands out from that crowd. He's not just decent, he is a player who could and should be starting for a club that plays in CL and that can get to the knockout rounds too.

      Biblical has created a lot of problems for himself not picking players in their best positions.

      When he took over he had a seriously well drilled allerdyce defensive team to which he added payet and lanzini (I think) and one or two others.
      He lucked out by a lot of his options getting injured so he had to play sako through the middle with Antonio right, lanzini left and payet no10.

      Where it all started to go wrong was when he had options and decided to move Antonio to rb towards the last third of last season and he dropped sako for carroll.

      I thought he was a good manager the start of last season but seeing him play Antonio rb to accommodate another attacking player and seeing him play payet on the left wing I just think he hasn't a clue.

              Playing some really good stuff for a lot of this season but killing teams off and inconsistency has been a big problem..

                Missing too many chances.... If they had a world class striker they could be right up there

        Apparently Martial only needs 4 more goals to trigger a €10m payment to Monaco..

        Why could you not do this in the league last weekend when i needed you Zlatan(c)

        1. Jimmers
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 20 days ago

          He did - he scored a goal

          1. Ógie
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 20 days ago

            He has a goal and a assist now if he done that for me in the last game he would have pretty much equaled Alexis and Aguero points score it would have meant a lot to me

          2. Ógie
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years

            Sorry my bad i got that wrong he did not get the assist

      6. Syd.
        • 16 Years

        2. Hurricane Gilbert

          Liverpool utd double gw would throw up some interesting wc options and potential triple c as well as bench boost plays

        Boys I need help!

        Pickford (Jakupovic)
        Alonso, Walker, Evans (Francis, Kingsley)
        Walcott, Firmino, Eriksen, Siggy (Allen)
        Aguero, Costa, Austin

        Do you think I should try and get Hazard in or is Costa enough Chelsea cover? I dont want to get rid of Aguero! Should I just stick with what I have? Does the team have good balance?

        1. The Fantastic Mr Fox

            I remember that awful tournament before making a transfer and after making a transfer. It's just that when I'm about to make the transfer I always forget about it and end up transferring in an AFCONer
