This afternoon we roll out the first round draws of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup XI, as sponsored by Paddy Power, as well as the fifth Fantasy Football Scout Members Cup.
In the Fantasy Football Scout Cup XI the cut off for qualification was 81 points, with rank deciding entry for those who scored exactly that tally in Gameweek 28. The rankings cut off was 150,163rd place.
One of the most eye catching ties in this open entry tournament is former champion Wild Rover’s match up against our team news man Demi.
Among our other cup winners Gribude will take on Snotgrass, reigning champion CMIFLFC faces Toon_army_htl, Goonerdave squares up to Blue Mooners, former champ MCH takes on Aliminator and Jonty (that’s me) faces Big Dolls.
Chris8910 is among those hoping to claim a high profile scalp, when he takes on Mark, whose Scoutcast co-host Granville sadly failed to qualify. Powerslice will be hoping Paul slips up to see him through to the next round.
Other notable community matchups include Hvt’s clash with 1966 was a great year.
In the Members Cup V, the cut off for qualification was also 81 points. As with the Paddy Power Cup, rank is the decider for those who matched this cut off score in Gameweek 28. The ranking cut off point for this competition was 2,515th.
Former winner Trigg faces the toughest task among our former champions as he squares up to world number one Dufflinks. Another former winner Fuzzy Dunlop also faces a familiar name, when he takes on Jafooli.
Shiregeriatric has the task of attempting to oust Mark from the Members Cup, while Dynamic takes on Paul.
Other familiar names from our community facing up to each other include Innsie’s match up with Shatner’s Bassoon and Torresmagic’s first round tangle with Shipstontrev.
