Ha ha! I'm lucky I don't have to worry about that! What score did you get?

41 no hit. Almost positive it won't be enough as the standard is just so high on there.

Top 10k average was only 41.5 though. I guess it depends how many people set up a new team just to enter the cup as they will obviously have a decent side ready to go. I would have thought you wouldn't be far off at 41 it might even go down to ranking!

I think that's my only hope. I'm ranked in the top 6k so if it comes down to that I'll be fine.

Hope I don't draw you then!

I'm on 49 (-4)

I'd have thought I'd be fine but you've made me nervous in here!!!

45 should definitely make it. I would be stunned if it didn't.

When do we find out who made the cut?

They say the qualifiers will be released today, but they have been known to be late in the past.

KevIRL · 03-12-2014 03:21PM

44 the cut off for the FFS cup

Did everyone who got 44 get in? I assume not.

I'll have to thank all my players who didn't get booked for getting me over the line.

Drew a team with no injuries and 30k ahead of me yikes! They do have two Everton though.

No 44 went down to rank everyone with 45 is safe.

.

Looks like not all

I dont appear to be in the draw.

The article was a little contradictory in that regard

First of all, entrants with a score of 44 points or more have earned a spot in the First Round of the Fantasy Football Scout Cup X. If you scored 44 points, it was then down to overall rank to decide whether you progressed.

Scorpion Sting · 03-12-2014 03:28PM

Feck it anyway! Would have liked a cup run in this.

jimmii · 03-12-2014 03:29PM

Yeh they didn't help themselves with the wording! What rank are you?

I was 16,519 after the GW 13 qualifying round. 17,514 after last night

Ziegler1988 · 03-12-2014 03:36PM

I drew "soulman27" in the 1st round. We've got reasonably similar teams as of this GW. My Benteke(c) this weekend should see him off handily

CSF · 03-12-2014 03:38PM

To put the high bar in perspective, only 5 of the 20 members of the FSA Premier League (the pinnacle of Fantasy Premier League standard) met the 45 or upwards required for guaranteed entry, with Swiper hitting 44 (hoping if he entered he made it)

Is it this weekend that the First Round is on?

KevIRL · 03-12-2014 03:39PM

Hopefully someone from here gets a deep run, there has been a few in the past alright. Think we had a finalist last year

Yup

KevIRL · 03-12-2014 03:43PM

Seems like v few on 44 actually got through, some guy just posted who has OR of 4428 and got 44 and isnt through.

Who?

MR NINE · 03-12-2014 03:55PM

I qualified but i took an eight point hit this week so itll likely be a brief run.

jimmii · 03-12-2014 03:55PM

For scores of 44 270th was the worst ranking to make it through! Guy in 324th got 44 and didn't make it thats pretty unlucky!!

I suppose there were very few remaining places under the guaranteed 45 score.

For GW15? That's when it starts I believe. Snook in myself but 45pts is a high qualifying score, thanks no doubt to the multitude of late entries with above average scores (bad form, FFS)
