With the Paddy Paddy Cup V sewn up last week by sleepingmaster, we now turn our attention to it’s sister competition, the Members Paddy Power Cup II. Over 900 Fantasy Football Scout members signed up, with hopes of qualifying for the first round of 512. As expected, the standard was very high, and the qualifying mark was set at a lofty 82 points for Gameweek 24.

That put 494 in the hat for round one, and forced 41 fantasy managers to rely on their overall rank to earn one of the remaining 17 spots. The list of all qualifiers can be viewed right here.

On to the first round draw then, which has been made and can be viewed right here. All 256 fixtures will be played over the upcoming Gameweek 25, and the result will follow shortly afterwards.

Our reigning champ, Kippax Kikkers (formerly Kippax Kolggers), is up against leekota, as he looks to defend his title.

Elsewhere, plenty of Scouts (not me) are in the mix – Mark takes on Shimmy, G-G-Granville has drawn Shehzu, Andy will square up to Lucas that is all, it’s Big Dunc Vs. ChrisHighwind, Pure Olivia is up against djembe, Anorak‘s been paired with Primprong, and Jonty will play johnd.

The prize? Well, once again 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

Remember, to claim a prize you will need a Paddy Power account and be aged 18 and over to be eligible. 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.

Finally, if you set up an account and are going to bet with Paddy Power, always gamble responsibly.

      was going to do dyer->siggy myself, most thought it a sideways move. id had more pressing issues though. i think the rest of your team is in good enough shape to give it a go. maybe think about dropping shotton soon.

      wow 98 last week! Just do whatever you did last week!

      That'd be hiphop with me, think it's worth the transfer. Although it seems a bit sideways and you could easily save a transfer for next week when you might need one...save it actually, Dyer has come close to scoring again the past couple weeks. The fact they're against Norwich could see a replay of his last season's form.

      STICK! 😀

      I think your attack looks light weight. Sturridge gone of the boil in a not so good Chelsea team. Dzeko could be good for a few weeks. But no VP, no Ba, No Augero....... could cost you.

    who wants to take the armband challenge?

    every time you go to the FPL home page, there are 4 random featured PL players near the top of the page, if you refresh, four new players. Go to the page and the first player you see, refreshing if necessary, that is in your current squad gets the armband.

    who's ready for the challenge?

    What transfer(s) should i make this week? slowly but surely catching up with my mini-league leader so need to keep it going.

    a) Huth > defender 7.4 or less?
    b) Walters > Siggy?
    c) A and B for a 4pt hit?

    Current team:

    Vorm, Krul

    Richards, Jevans, Simpson, Kelly, Huth

    Silva, Bale, Dempsey, Walters, Mclean

    RVP, Aguero, Ba

    Thinking of taking a -4 hit today had Walters all season but I can bring in Dempsey if I sell Kochelny and bring in Kelly

    team would be

    Vorn (Lind)

    Kompany Kelly Cahill (Simpson Enrique)

    Sess Dempsey Silva Bale (buzaky)

    Ba RVP Dzeko

    Worth the 4 point hit?

      I'd rather keep Koscielny and sell Enrique with Liverpool's upcoming fixtures and lack thereof.

      But I'm keeping Walters.
