    Thought I was out to a dead team with Okazaki as third sub to come in, but he won't come in as 3 of his defenders didn't play

    I'm not so lucky
    3rd sub
    Coming in to knock me out

    Out of FFS members cup by 2 points


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    It wouldn't be the first round of a cup if I didn't get knocked out immediately, now would it...

    3rd sub Hegazi for a zombie did the trick this time around :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,952 ✭✭✭Morzadec


    Absolutely hammered by a zombie team that's 905k OR.

    Bad week for the cup to start for most of us I'd imagine!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Am actually surprised by the number of us going out. Would rate a lot of Boardsies quite highly, were we not one of the highest ranking private leagues in previous seasons. Yet alot going out with low scores, in pretty average GWs to Zombies scoring way over the average.

    :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,164 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    I'm out of the cup as well thanks to KDB captain and Pickford.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    I'm through thanks to my opponent being marginally more useless than me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,970 ✭✭✭Deise Vu


    Out to a player who had Azpilqueta as captian and a forward line of Diouf and Calvert Llewyn. Unfortunately he had DDG in goal, Otamendi and, dear God in heaven, Klaven (9pts!!!).

    Genius me still has Mee and Trippier but I am taking the hit this weekend to make sure Trippier finally plays in a game where Spurs get a clean sheet and he gets three assists for Kane. Replacing Mee is only fair, the lad has suffered enough and should be allowed come baclk from injury. Just watch.

    Anyone know when they put up the draw for Round 2?

    It was a bad week for good players. A low scoring week is ideal for zombie teams to knock out good players.

    Not many players worth their salt would have got over 50 points this week I imagine, all the most logical captain choices (Kane, Hazard, Cout, Salah) blanked, whereas zombie teams would be likely to have default De Gea set as captain or maybe the likes of KDB or Lukaku.

    My tie wasn't even close! 61 - 34

    Through comfortably enough in the end.
    I need a good run in the cup to make up for a terrible overall rank :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,655 ✭✭✭DJIMI TRARORE


    out due to Andy Kings 7 point haul,his only playing sub, on a team captained by Morata,VC on DDG and untouched since holloween 47-48:mad::mad::mad:


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 23,228 Mod ✭✭✭✭GLaDOS

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Scored 59....still got knocked out by a zombie team.

    He had: DDG, Vertonghen, Hegazi, McArthur, Eriksen, Okazaki, Lukaku and Aguero....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 120 ✭✭evancunny95


    2nd round draw and have a tough local derby away against a northside Dublin team 'Klippitys year again'. They had a good win in the last round and their score would have knocked me out. With doubts over Ricky and Ward and an everchanging defence, feel like Im up against it big time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Up against a zombie team and not feeling good about it. Them:

    Ddg
    Alonso Daniels Hegazi
    Salah Manè Alli Doucoure
    Lukaku(c) DCL Firmino

    VS me:
    (-4)
    Ddg
    Mariappa Dunk Kenny
    Salah Coutinho Hazard(c) KdB Gross
    Firmino Morata


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Another player who I am not quite sure about. Played their WC a few weeks ago, no transfers since, and qualified for this round with 40 points and 8 players.

    I am getting knocked out, aren't I?

    Out of both FFS cups. This ended my cup season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,916 ✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    Out too. Not even close.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,596 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    On 47 with Kenny left, cup opponent is on 36 with Keane and Routledge to go


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Extremely tight going in to tonight's game: my 66 + Kenny vs their 65 + DCL. Zombie team


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,127 ✭✭✭The real mccoy 91


    Think I could be pissing against the wind tonight need a 15 point haul from Kenny and dcl. I have marriappa chilwell and morata to thank contributing a tidy 2 points between the 3 of them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,301 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    The zombie team who knocked me out last week is sailing through again this week against another dead team.

    Rhino XI, I'm rooting for ye. No qualms at all losing the eventual winner!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 120 ✭✭evancunny95


    50-40 at the moment, but he has Rooney captain and I just have DCL, should be ok once Rooney doesnt score, if he does its going to be very close.  He also has Ayew on the bench and I have Niasse, both will come in. Looks like this one will go down to the wire
