    Qualifying is done. Anyone know what the cut off ended up being? About 45?

    Reckon fixtures will be up in the next couple of days.

    45 sounds about right, went through the overall league randomly to try to find someone with 44 points but gave up

    Target - 4,194,304

    Points - GW Rank
    41 - 4,658,924
    42 - 4,555,218
    43 - 4,536,640
    45 - 4,161,469
    46 - 4,000,114

    That late Digne goal ensured my qualification. :)

    And mine

    Same also I think. Almost sure I would have been outside otherwise. Not that this is one of my main areas of focus for the year.

    They mustn’t have taken points hits into account. I’m 47 (-4) and GW rank 3,881,256

    Yeah, points hits don't count.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,578 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Points hits do count once the cup proper starts though, is that right?

    Doesn't seem fair.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,432 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Playing a semi-ghost team, so obviously I’ll be out in the first round

    Same. No activity since early November. Triple wolves defence. So clean sheet there and I am goosed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,569 ✭✭✭mugsymugsy


    Decided to concentrate on the league this season!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Facing someone from Malaysia. I noticed they've made a crazy amount of hits. (I thought mine were bad). On six occasions they made 4 transfers at a cost of -12. Looks a good team though so hoping there were more were made this week. I've taken a -4 myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    And I'm out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,254 ✭✭✭✭km79

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


    Safely through against a dead team with 10 players.

    Think that’s the first time I’ve got through to the next round.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,383 ✭✭✭S.M.B.


    Think I'm out by a point. Unless Mane got tackled / hit wide a good few more times than Lingard.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,328 ✭✭✭nullObjects


    Scraped through to next round by a couple of points I think. Was almost afraid to watch the Liverpool game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,063 ✭✭✭✭eh i dunno


    Scrape through by 4 points


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Through by 10 points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,218 ✭✭✭Islander13


    2.1m down, 2.1m to go. Still alive

    Got through by 2 points


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,192 ✭✭✭Colking


    Managed to beat a dead team by the princely sum of 3 points !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,520 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    Tied. Through by goals scored.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,911 ✭✭✭tailgunner


    Beaten by three points. At least it was an active team!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,672 ✭✭✭elefant


    Going out to a ghost team on goals scored, finished off by Lingard. :o

    Unless the Ings goals on the bench count towards goals scored, which seems unlikely.


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


    Up against a ghost team that beat another ghost in round 1 sane salah(c) kane and firmino only big hitters

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,543 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Blitzed through a dead team and am against another this week but this one has Aguero (c) and Hazard so those differentials could still scare me enough.


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


    Up against a ghost team, who have not ranked higher than 5.4 million all season, they did though knock out a team in the top 500k this weeked. They also have Hazard, Mane, and Aguero.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,685 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    Out :D

    Barely noticed I was part of the competition.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭claw


    Beaten 60-40 by a team that hasn't changed or made transfers at any stage.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,654 ✭✭✭DJIMI TRARORE


    Thru by 5 pts v a dead team who only had 6 players

    Disaster week. 26 points, lowest score of the season and I tied in the cup. Then went out on a virtual coin toss. Normal service resumed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,714 ✭✭✭Cartman78


    Got well beat by an Irish fella with a mediocre and lengthy FPL history.

    First time I haven't been beaten by a zombie team so feel like progress has been made


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,520 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    Up against an active team with OR 2 million. Was 3 million 3 weeks ago. Has a few form players so will be tough one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 619 ✭✭✭Jeju


    Up against South African lad who is around 3.9 millionth. He played his wild card on Dec 4th probably to get into Cup. He also has TC and Bench boost used. None of his bench have any game time, except TAA and he is injured.


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


    Up against an active team that scored 37 last week.

    3 pronged Arsenal attack of Auba, Lacazette & Torreira home v Burnley

    Double City defence home v Palace

    That alone is scary added in form players of Doherty Wilson and Felipe


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,265 ✭✭✭COH


    Up against an active team... he has made 49 transfers this season for 140 points of hits.

    Good team now to be fair... hoping he continues his high rolling ways


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


    Up against an active team as well ranked 1.2 millionth.

    Double Chelsea at the back and Robertson who I don't have in defence. He has double Wolves attack in Jimenez and Neves but Brooks on his bench who is home to Brighton and if he starts could rack up a nice haul for him. He has Auba, Sané and Sterling who I also have and he has Lacazette as well who I'm hoping gets benched again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,421 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    I'm up against a guy who is 5 million in the world. hasnt made a transfer since gameweek 2, a team value of 96 million and 4 injured players

    So thats me definitely gone
