    I'm defending a 45 point lead against BlockedPat this weekend. Safe to say I'll be in the draw.

    Famous last words!! Never over until it's over.

    So with the Distin adjustment I am 3 points behind with Baines and Szczesny vs Mannone, Distin and Coleman. On the unlikely chance I score exactly 3 more from those players what happens?

    wasn't even aware that they'd took points off distin. absolute shambles of a set up this year.

    anyway back to this, I need a goal conceded v arsenal so as mannone hasn't a hope of keeping one, baines not to score would also be helpful.

    Mr.P may weigh in on what happens in event of a draw.

    The bad news is that the winner of your tie will have to play a resurgent Swiper the Fox in the semi final.

    My opponent has only five dgw's including Yaya and is currently over 50 points down.

    As stated in the first post these will be 2 legged knockouts with aggregate scoring. In the event of a tie over 2 legs "away goals" will come into play i.e. whoever scored more points in their "away" tie. Those in the first bracket of their draw will play at home first and away secondly. For example I play KennyB3 at home first and then away.

    This is what I said when I hastily drew up the whole thing but I didn't give it a second thought to be honest. Let's just wait and see what happens first I guess and cross that bridge then if we need to.

    In the Europa Cup and Champions Cup, I'm doing highest global ranking wins in the event of a draw.

    It's what FFS do in their cups.

    i'm still half asleep here but is this correct, baines 4 points, szczesny 2 points v mannone, distin & coleman 1 point each.

    that's 6 v 3 and exactly the 3 points more which you said :eek:



    edit: last week was the higher scoring week and as i was listed first, i think from mr.p's post above that means you were the away team for the higher scroung week so you go through. pretty close contest this, well done.

    sorry, didn't realize baines got booked, I can't access FPl in work so was just going by 3 for assist, 2 for more than 60 mins and -1 for conceding 3.

    but just checked fotmob when I seen your reply and see he got booked.

    ah well cheers for a very good game anyway.

    forgot about this, I got 66 (-4) last week, so 62.
    what did you get swiper? (yes, I'm too lazy to go back and look for your i.d :D)

    Nicely poised so going into this week. I finished on 68 (-4) so that puts me 2 ahead.

    cheers, very close alright, i won't be doing transfers for this week until fri/sat and undecided about a hit but the current dgw players i have are

    Mannone, chester, Mata, Nasri, YaYa, Rooney, Aguero.

    I'll hammer that crew anyway, you'd wanna start takin hits!!;)



    I've Rooney, Mata, Zab, Aguero, and Adam Johnson. I'll have two more on Saturday, Phil Jones and Nasri are possibles.

    :D

    I have my full city quota, need shot of distin so might get vidic in for him, might just leave it at that then, will decide fully tomorrow when team news announced.

    I'm almost certain that I won't have Yaya anyway (but you never know;)) so he could be the winning and losing of our tie. I may opt for Vidic, Evra or Jones or I could double up on city defence, to be honest I haven't a clue, i'm rambling here. Either way I'll have 7 doubles, you'll have more than that for sure, good luck!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Similar teams Hogey and similar scores so far, think you are three points up on me at the moment. The clash today is your Ramsey v my Ivanovic, this could go some way to deciding our match. After that you have Mannone, Chester and Yaya against my Zabaleta and Adam Johnson. I wouldn't like to call it just yet.

    no ramsey today so shaw comes off the bench with 6, I don't think chester will be involved either.

    you'd expect a Chelsea cs today and ivanovic always carries a goal threat, If I get through that match ok it could call come down to yaya being fit.

    *is that 3 points up for the gameweek or the tie overall?

    you're three ahead overall, 5 for the gameweek. I would have preferred for you to take you're chances with Ramsey rather than bring in Shaws six. I feel I need 5 or six points from Ivan later on to stay in touch.

    Yeah I was kinda happy to take the 6 from him too.
    Will see how the chelsea game goes but I'd be very happy if ivanovic only got 6 from that.

    Assuming I was two ahead coming into this week I have you as four ahead at the moment, my 4 point hit is the difference.(I've factored in Shaws six points). We both have Suarez tonight, if Rooney is a no show you'll have Ward and I'll have Puncheon in that game.
    After that it's Mannone, Chester and Yaya for you --- Zabaleta and Johnson for me. You're a warm favourite.

    cheers for the update, very close this one. it could go either way still, chester is ruled out so it's 2 versus 2.
    my rival has toure captained and although it looks bleak in me catching him now after dzeko and terry moved him nicely away from me I'd still much rather toure did nothing. you'd expect a city cs for zab but hopefully mannone cancels that out for me. certainly keeps it interesting.

    the other semi finalists are very quiet :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Right so Hogey, with all the substitutions and my 4 point hit factored in you will be 5 points ahead going into tonight. Nasri is in both teams.
    I need for Zabaleta and Adam Johnson to outscore Mannone and Yaya by at least 5 points.

    could be very close or yaya could have a field day v a very poor side. I hope the latter isn't the case as opponent has him captained (and dzeko also playing) so could really do with a low scoring game (and hope mannone nicks this for me rather than toure)

    those yaya points at the end killed off my chances in the paid league but got me through to the final here, cheers for a good game. was very close, and the comments here made it a bit of craic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    I thought I was going through until Yaya got the assist, even afterwards I had a half chance if bonus points went my way, the goal was a killer. Well done, hope you can make contact with whoever is in the final with you, I can't be arsed checking:p

    Well that confirms it, Yaya's late show has cost me my place in the final, as well as my top 10k place overall.

    so it's me against kevin, i'm still undecided about transfers,

    had planned on dzeko, sturridge and gerrard in for rooney, aguero and ward prowse.

    with aguero declared fit I might hold off on aguero out and just do rooney to sturridge. and then possibly mata to gerrard for a hit.
