FIFA 11 Cup Competition - Championship Teams

Public Executor

Need 16 players from the league for this. Strictly First Come First Serve. Rules are as follows:

1. First round - 16 teams - 8 matches
2. Quarters - 8 teams - 4 matches
3. Semis - 4 teams - 2 matches
4. Final - 2 teams - 1 winner

• Every round is one-legged, except if a match is a draw and a replay with the other person hosting is done (to be concluded with ET and penos, if needed).
  
• Finalist host is picked as the team with the better goal difference over the competition.
  
• Teams and draw numbers (1-16) are issued on a first come first serve basis.
  
• The draw will be out of a hat each round.
  
• Fair play rules are to be the same as with the leagues, with the exception of last man tackling now being allowed. This is do-or-die after all. No second chances.
  
• However, if you get a player sent off for this, it must be reported with the match result and you will agree gentlemanly that he is not to be played in the next round. That's round, not match, so he is sent in the first round, he cannot play again until the semi-final).
  
• Teams are from the English Championship (will change this in future, this is just a first attempt).
  
• Just lads already from the leagues this time thanks, so we can start it quickly and see if it works.

Good luck!

Gonna end entries for this at midnight. If we only have twelve, there'll be a random draw for 8 people for the first round. Then 4 winners + 4 unpicked will meet in the quarter final and we'll carry on from there.

2 - Middlesbrough (Mancho) - FREE PASS
3 - Leeds (AthAnRi) - Forest (Parawind)
4 - QPR (MarkSRFC) - Portsmouth (Le King)
5 - Swansea (kensutz6) - Cardiff (Lamposts)
6 - Leicester (corcaigh) - FREE PASS
7 - Norwich (bonescap) - Reading (Public Executor)
8 - Ipswich (bonkers) - Coventry (Cjayses)

Good luck everyone. The league's coming up, so let's get to it quickly. I'll make the quarter final draw on Tuesday night. Please post all results and red cards on this thread. If you want to do pre-and-post analysis, I won't complain. Let's go!

Lamposts

LOLZ at how how much I've already won it.

looder

Is this only open to active league members?

How long is it going to run for?

If it'll be finished in the next 3 weeks, I'll play to make up the numbers, no probs at all (if that's allowed as I'm technically not in the leagues anymore).

If it's OK,

Level: Dunno, 27 or 28 I think. haven't played much lately.

If it's too late, no probs

EDIT: I see draws been made... ignore this. Best of luck lads

Public Executor

It'll be over fairly sharpish and if it works, then I'll do another and you can swing right in.

That draw was a lol. good job

Leeds United (AthAnRi) 1-1 Nottingham Forest (Parawind)

Replay:
Nottingham Forest (Parawind) 1-0 Leeds United (AthAnRi)

First game was tight, but felt i was worth my win in the second one. Still 1-0 made it a bit nervy.

Agreed. Only for Schmeichal and a few near misses it wood have been more. Although my flukey loopy dippy shoty of the crossbar had me going.

bonescap

Public Executor are you going to be around before the champions league tonight for our game?

Public Executor

Yes

Ah, well played mate! Very solid. Knew it was a mistake to sub McAnuff.

Norwich 2 - 0 Reading

Public Executor

Also, get your games played lads. Let me know you've at least tried to contact the guy you've meant to play. If there's no contact, then you go through at his expense. If you both have contacted me, sort it out! You're both clearly online! Draw will be made shortly.

think the game really could have gone either way, the second goal just killed it off.

Played a few games with norwich over the last week and have only lost once, starting to think i should pick them for the premiership :rolleyes:

You haven't been online in 2 days. Last time you were online I sent you a message but you just kept playing away at Black Ops and ignored me

I'm online now and will be after the Chelsea - United game. If you feel like playing FIFA just send me a message :pac:

Cjayses

Oi bonkers. I'll be on Friday and most of the weekend if you're around then?

bonkers

Finish the first game with Lamposts 1-1. Waiting for 20 minutes for the replay and he can't be bothered to play it or even tell me that he can't hang around. An acknowledgement to say he couldn't play a replay would have been handy.

Frankly i can't stand that, had the same thing happen to me in the league last season. It can be quite frustrating when your making the effort to play your game. I think you should be awarded the walkover.

+1 This lamps guy sounds like a right noob.

jamescd

Oi DB10 do you want to get our game played or what ?? You were on last night after the United - Chelsea game, but again you didn't reply to my message and just suddenly went offline.

I'm sick of sending you messages and getting no reply (even though you were online), so can you at least post here what day/time you'll be available to play our game ??

DB10

I can play now, I wasnt on last night. Must have been someone else on my profile.

I think I should get a walkover tbh

jamescd

Lol @ walkover. Do you mind going on Xbox Live then, I'm already on and waiting........
