    And another cup run over....

    Me too but not a zombie team. Beaten by 2 pts. Thank you captain Giroud.

    I got through 69 64 .

    Made it through against an Aussie player who hadn't touched his team from the start (there's a name for those kinda teams, might've been mentioned here already :pac:)

    It was close though; 58-55. Austin's goal made all the difference. I was heading out as my opponent had Mertesacker on a cleanie up until the peno. 9 point swing in effect.

    75 75
    Lost on goals scored
    Austin pen/Giroud sending off sunk me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,400 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    54-54 against a team ranked over a million places higher than me and beat him on goals scored. The glory of the cup :p

    Got lucky in that I thought he had Sigurdsson coming off the bench but they used his number two sub instead as he would only have had two defenders otherwise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,902 ✭✭✭MagicIRL


    83 - 73 win for myself. Had a huge week with Terry and Chester netting in my back three, as well as Siggy/Sanchez?Eriksen bringing in the midfield bacon with a captained Costa sinking 22.

    And he was about 600,000 places higher than myself, too. :-)

    Won 80-61 so happy with that

    I think I lost in the official cup with a score of 87, we tied 87 apiece and I think I lost out on goals against.

    I don't know how to find out whether I won or lost.

    Happened to me last year after 7 or 8 wins. You won't find out for sure until you get a new fixture or not but you could find out by checking the rules and going through the teams with a fine tooth comb.

    I keep checking for the fixtures to come up, thought we'd have them by now.

    Think it first goes by most goals scored then least goals conceded. I could be wrong though.

    I've been keeping my two free transfers to see my opponents team in the next round. I reckon they won't be up until tomorrow at this stage.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,417 Mod ✭✭✭✭F1ngers


    Up against someone in the top 70K.

    We both have Dummett, Sanchez and Downing and differ for the rest of the team.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Up against a lad that hasn't made a transfer this GW yet has a host of players like Ade who shouldn't feature and Bertrand who definitely won't.

    That said, he got 61 last GW which wasn't a bad score.

    I've drawn a fellow Irish man. He got 80 last week I got 98. Could be interesting.


  • Registered Users Posts: 973 ✭✭✭internet_user


    up against a semi-zombie team that got a score of 86 last week.im confident ill win as long as rooney doesnt go nuts


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,201 ✭✭✭jamesbondings


    i have drawn someone who is in the top 50000, bugger well the cup run was more successful than any i have ever been in thus far hahaha


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,417 ✭✭✭Miguel_Sanchez


    Drawn someone who's 700,000 places above me this round.

    But they've captained Eriksen so that's a good start for me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,915 ✭✭✭✭menoscemo


    Got a guy with a decent rank (200k) but he has had a bad day. He now needs about 25 from Dyer, siggy and Henderson tomorrow or else I am through...

    May have spoke too soon, he currently leads 42-38. I have fabianski naylor and sterling to go while he has skrtel; hard to call


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Disaster! Up against a zombie team with 6 injuries to his starting XI

    Up against it now after only scoring 25 pts!

    Hav Siggy & Sakho to go but can't overturn with 11 pts with those two :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,579 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Through x 3

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,576 ✭✭✭skippy15


    Some game tonight for my cup match- had a 4 point lead with siggy V Routledge and Henderson.... thought I had it in the bag.
    Anyways because of my point hit it finished 44- 44. Am I right in thinking ill go through on goals scored or rank?

    Goes by Goals scored, then fewest goals conceded then a virtual coin toss.

    My cup game is level on all. Can't see who has win the coin toss.

    Where can I see this!??

    Probably just when the new draw is made. They should really have a virtual coin toss display when you can watch it live. Missed a trick there FPL missed a trick there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts

    Baffling that they don't use overall rank as a tiebreaker instead of a coin toss


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,159 ✭✭✭Cypher_sounds


    Got through 54-35 against a guy who was ranked 248k.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,193 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Out of the cup. :( Lost by 22 points (57-35) to a guy ranked 32k after the end of play last night. My opponent had Hazard, Siggy, Henderson, Hutton and de Gea in his team. Talk about being trounced!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08

    Totally agree!! Dropped 250 places to 1.2k OR & still in Top 100 in Ireland.

    The other guy is nearly 2mil places below &hasnt touched his team in weeks. If there is any justice :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,579 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Cup draw out. Active player for me, ranked 188k and good looking team. Will be tough


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,249 ✭✭✭Steven81


    i love being against a team 2.1m with a team with Agbonlahor and Zamora upfront, no transfers since November. Fab captain, costa vc


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,579 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Through x1
    Out x2


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,159 ✭✭✭Cypher_sounds


    Through safely 48-38.

    Well beaten 50-41


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,579 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Up against a guy who's 1million overall hasn't made a transfer since November but has some in form differentials like chadli and Costa. Could go either way really


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 642 ✭✭✭CrabieCrawford


    My opponent is ranked over 640,000.

    Last gameweek he played a 5-4-1 with Austin up front and Downing captain, and Costa and Kane on the bench. Also just seen his transfer was Baines in for Jagielka.

    Hopefully he'll have some more of those questionable decisions next week. He also has no Hazard and cant get him in with less than 2 transfers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Harps Cup draw (ties played this week) just out. Will post full draw later.

    6 or so FSA men in the last 32 and two FSA derbies!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,554 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    I'm playing someone below me in the rankings who hasn't wildcarded (yet). That's good enough for me

    My opponent in FPL cup, no game activity since November, has played his wildcard....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 642 ✭✭✭CrabieCrawford


    Not looking good in the cup, if bonus stays the same I have and 11 point lead with kane to go. My opponent has Kane (c), Bertrand and Lloris.

    I really will need luck to carry me through this one
