    Looking at the teams, it looks like there aren't any hits to be deducted from the monthly totals, so the monthly table is correct as it stands. If there's any errors in that, let me know asap. Very tight so it could be well be a tiebreak scenario yet!! See Tiebreak rules below.

    Rock Rovers (Ros1234) = 205

    Kathleen's Heroes (Kathleen Grant) = 196

    Dunks of Hazard (Green&Red) = 190

    Craggy Islands Elite (tubbercowboy) = 190

    The Craggy Islanders (AdPro) = 185

    On me head son (Klopparama) = 182

    Just an FYI for everyone. Tie break scenarios as outlined in post 2 of this thread. These are what are in play if needed at any stage during the season :

    Tie break scenario will be as follows :


    1. Goals scored by all selected players in the month (including all chips so bench boost goals count, normal captain goals worth double, triple captain goals worth triple etc.).

    2. Still tied, I will do assists on the same scenario as the goals tie break.

    3. Sum of all captain totals in that month (triple captain will count in this)

    4. If somehow that's similar, we'll run a play off the following week!

    fyi

    I'll be away for a couple of days midweek next week, so hopefully get around to confirming eliminated party, and January monthly scores by the Friday evening at the latest.

    And just 6 more to me. Next game week will be very interesting. The right choices will be crucial.

    Best of luck to all next week, very high standard and a good structure to the comp, fair play McBain

    I’ve taken hits a couple of times this month.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭McBain11


    I’ve taken hits a couple of times this month.

    They are already built into the monthly score.

    The only hits that have to be deducted from FPL website monthly score filter are ones taken in the first week of each month, i.e. gw21 for January iirc.

    So just say you take 20 points in hits for this week, I don't need to deduct that from your monthly score next week. The website has already done that.

    It's a sh*te thing they have built into their FPL website monthly scoring system for some reason!

    They had to captain someone other than Salah to have a differential as things were so tight. Has made things even more interesting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,433 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Looks like my only way out is Bednerak to get a CS and Deeney to blank or Salah to score 10 or more. Serious high standard, I’m in an mini-league Skreddy is running, 4th for the month in it with a chance of top spot

    High possibility of a Deeney blank. How things change. I was looking so comfortable 2 weeks ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,935 ✭✭✭AdpRo


    Unbelievably tight, think I survived, Green & red the unlucky one by a point or 2 I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,433 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Balls, three points. 10 points from top to bottom

    Yep. Just having a quick look and this seems to be the case. I'll do a proper audit tomorrow to confirm 100 percent, but it looks like Green&Red was unlucky in an extremely tight month from top to bottom.

    Just 5 runners from this weekend on. Things getting serious.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭McBain11


    Unbelievably tight month in January. Unlucky Green&Red, hopefully you get a good run in your other leagues.

    Just 5 players remaining now. Best of luck to all as there's a quick FPL turnaround and February scores are about to start flying in!

    Below is the audited January scores


    Rock Rovers (Ros1234) = 243

    Craggy Islands Elite (tubbercowboy) = 243

    On me head son (Klopparama) = 242

    The Craggy Islanders (AdPro) = 239

    Kathleen's Heroes (Kathleen Grant) = 236

    Dunks of Hazard (Green&Red) = 233


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    McBain showing everyone how to play the triple captain there. Well done.

    Just trying to salvage a horror season by winning a cup tie I was involved in!
    1 more goal and I would have been over the moon.

    Horror season for myself. The last couple of seasons have been. Looking forward to next season already :-)

    People have gotten 3 points triple captain before or 6. Lukaku DGW springs to mind


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    Why didn't I TC Aguero? :O


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭McBain11


    Just the 1 gw left before 1 more player goes. Bit of a gap at the bottom to the rest of the pack, but stranger things have happened!

    Best of luck to all, and I'll update audited monthly tallies on Thursday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭McBain11


    Winter has come and gone, and we are now down to the final four participants after Februarys FPL scores are in. Unlucky for tubbercowboy (Craggy Islands Elite), you've had a great run in this competition. Hopefully you make some hay in other FPL comps between now and the end of the season.

    Final February tallies below :

    Rock Rovers (Ros1234) = 295

    The Craggy Islanders (AdPro) = 283

    Kathleen's Heroes (Kathleen Grant) 262 - 4 = 258

    On me head son (Klopparama) = 246

    Craggy Islands Elite (tubbercowboy) = 172

    Best of luck to all in March

    Looks like it might be my turn to go :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,935 ✭✭✭AdpRo


    I think you are only 12 points behind, that can easily be made up in a big DGW.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭begbysback


    Looks like it might be my turn to go :(

    Get the big guns out Kathleen, triple captain, bench boost - throw the lot at it as if your life depended on it!!

    And how are the so many left? Doesn’t the league end in May? How many left to fight out in the last month?

    There are 4 sides left (calmwood are my side, I'm just in as it's easier to keep track of the table for me). 4 sides is the correct amount, will be just the 3 left then going into April.

    12 points is a small gap to claw back, very doable. With there being extra games it's possible to make up far bigger margins that that imo.

    Best of luck to all over the international break planning and plotting for a make or break week :-)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    Well it was closer than I thought it would be in the end but it's me out. No complaints, I had a poor run this month and I just wasn't good enough. Well done to the 3 who are left and best of luck in your other leagues.


  • Registered Users Posts: 146 ✭✭Ros1234


    Hard luck Kathleen, twas close enough alright I taught I'd get more out of the free hit chip. Just as well I had the 12 point lead going in and barely hung on. Best of luck in your other leagues


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭McBain11


    So that's March done, and we are down to just 3 runners. Very tight in the end, with Kathleen just losing out. You had a great run of it Kathleen. A pity to fall so late, best of luck in your other fantasy football leagues.

    Best of luck to the 3 remaining players. A hectic April month coming up before we are down to just the final 2 to fight it out in May.


    Final March tallies below :

    The Craggy Islanders (AdPro) = 253

    On me head son (Klopparama) 251 - 4 = 247

    Rock Rovers (Ros1234) = 206

    Kathleen's Heroes (Kathleen Grant) = 200


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    I really enjoyed the competition McBain. Thanks very much for running it. If you are running this again next year please keep me in mind.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    What's happening with this? Is this not last weekend of month. Dying to know how it ends.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭begbysback


    Ya ya keep us posted if possible

    Forgot to put up the standings a few days ago. Didn't want to bump thread today in case I was accused of notifying others of the Friday early game!!!

    3 runners left. 1 player will go out after this GW. Just the final 2 players then faceoff in the short May month for the Last Man Standing title.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭McBain11


    Will put actual scores up here in a bit. Think it was roughly 10-12 points between the bottom 2 places with another 20 points or so to the top spot.

    Anyways, best of luck to all 3 remaining players. Crunch time this weekend.

    I apologise I never thought of it being a Fri kick-off. We all know it's 3 left with 1 going this weekend. Just wondering about the points and possibilities. Let us know tomorrow if you can, thanks.

    Wow.

    Been a bit of a turnaround in this league over last couple of gameweeks.

    I’m currently trailing by 2.

    Is that up to date in terms of any hits that have been taken ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 112 ✭✭Skreddy


    Good Luck To Final Few! Great Comp Bro! Cheers For Running it : ) Defo in for next season if you run it again!!

    Pretty sure that was the state of play this morning before a ball was kicked. There will be no hits to be accounted for at the end of the month, so whatever the monthly tally reads on the FPL website is correct.

    I will do a proper audit at the end of the GW anyway just to make sure all is well.

    Best of luck to all, will be another close one!!

    It looks like we have our final 2. The Craggy Islanders (Adpro) and Rock Rovers (Ros1234)...

    Unlucky to On me head son (Klopparama). It was a fierce contest and you were right in it until the last couple of matches of the month. Hopefully you're right up there in your other leagues as your OR and those of the 2 lads remaining are of the highest quality.

    I will stick up the final scores for the month tomorrow at some stage. I like to wait until 24 hours after matches finish to make sure there is no glitch in the matrix :-)


  • Registered Users Posts: 146 ✭✭Ros1234


    I needed 2 big weeks to stay in this league, last 2 week scores were 122(-4) BB played and 121(-4) Triple captain played on Mane, he was also the reason for the -4, selling Eriksen worked out well thankfully.
    Unlucky Klopparama, hope you're doing well in your other league's.

    Very enjoyable playing in this league, in a standard monthly/overall league in work and a head to head league with lads from at home and all three league's are different but I couldn't say one was a better format than the others.

    Thanks McBain for running it and best of luck to AdpRo in the final 2 weeks, your favorite with your triple captain still available!

    Cheers Ros1234, best of luck to you as well. With only 2 GW's to count it will be a close run thing. The most I have ever gotten from the TC chip is 1 assist so I will need to get more this time in order for it to make a difference!

    Agree about this league being very enjoyable and makes you think differently to other leagues, I've enjoyed it and will definitely be interested again next season. Thanks McBain for running it.

    Fantastic turnaround by yourself.

    Iirc I was about 40-50 points ahead of you after the first 2 GW’s of the month.

    Did not see what happened coming. At all.

    Well done and best of luck to both of you in ‘the final’.

    Ya, I was 44 behind after 2 weeks, I brought in Higuain the donkey instead of Vardy in GW30 but corrected that in my wildcard GW34, that killed me for the first 2 weeks of this month though.

    That's April finito. Just a couple of gameweeks left before we have our Last Man Standing Champion.

    Unlucky Klopparama, and best of luck to Adpro and Ros1234 in the finale.

    Final April tallies below :

    The Craggy Islanders (AdPro) - 344

    Rock Rovers (Ros1234) - 329

    On me head son (Klopparama) - 304


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭McBain11


    Best of luck in the grand finale folks :-)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭McBain11


    CraggyIslanders (Adpro) with a 13 point lead going into the final weekend over Rock Rovers (Ros1234).

    Should be a cracking finish to the LMS. 550 euros on the line. Hope you both have loads of tactical tricks up your sleeves this weekend :-)

    Again, best of luck to you both this weekend.

    The potential is there for a tiebreak situation also, so please be aware of all tie breaker scenarios.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    Great that it's close. It's been really exciting all along.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    Best of luck to both lads today.
