TFF/FPL Combo Cup - 2011/12

[Surprised]

Great work.
Looks like i will top my group, does that mean i will be seeded

lol
No seedings. It's an all in battle
Oatfedgoat, hancockjr, Hogmeister and Richt already through as group winners.
12 places up for grabs

[Matty B]

Currently bottom of the 2nd placed teams but the runners-up spots all there for the taking !!

[grob]

I must be missing something here. I had a 6 point lead over Snout after GW13;we both won our respective games in GW14,but the gap between us is now only 3pts. What have I overlooked ?
Further investigation reveals that Snout had lost 3 games after GW13,but now he's only lost 2 What's the trick ? Is it that he's a fellow Mod ?

Its possible I have made a mistake

I will take a look

Edit: It seems there is an error in the scores carried forward from GW13. I will have to wait until I get my laptop working to grab the correct sheet.

[grob]

So there's no smoke without fire after all

[Surprised]

So there's no smoke without fire after all

I blame my panic when I saw the smoke.
Not sure what happened there. It does change some tables but not a great deal

You are now 6 points clear and assured of winning the group

[grob]

At least it shows that we take an interest,and that you won't get away with any manipulation of the scores, no matter how tempting that brown envelope might be

[Surprised]

It only changed the points in groups A and B. Revised table will appear later tonight.
Maybe I should ask for a bigger envelope

[Surprised]

Revised tables
Apologies for the error and thanks grob for spotting it!

Grob, Richt, hancockjr and Hogmeister all assured of qualifying as Group winners.
Oatfedgoat, Trickster1 and Deppy all assured of at least 2nd place and a chance of taking 1 of the best 7 runner up spots.
Dixie, Spinynorman, Karrde, Spencer4, Mystery and owenclass are all out.
Anybody else still has chance.

[grob]

That looks a lot better

[Surprised]

GW15 Cup results ( Final round of group games)

[Surprised]

Final Group tables.

All group winners (9) and 7 best runner ups qualify for last 16

Group A - Oatfedgoat qualifies as group winner. Jonathan wins his final game and also qualifies as 3rd best runner up
Group B - grob reaches the last 16 as group winner but topspur misses out as he was 8th best runner up.
Group C - Trickster1 makes it through as group winner and Nedved follows him as 6th best runner up.
Group D - Richt is through as is tenpinterry as 5th best runner up.
Group E - Hancockjr goes through with a 100% record. Surprised loses his final match and fails to go through as worst runner up
Group F - Neathboy wins the group and is joined in the last 16 by KeviFisher as 4th best runner up
Group G - Hogmeister goes through with a 100% record and is joined by Matty B as 7th best runner up.
Group H - Deppy goes through and is joined by keithy007 who was best runner up.
Group I - reds363 wins the group and qualifies and is joined by Mintman as 2nd best runner up. It's heartbreak for the dude abides as he misses out despite having 12 points.

[Surprised]

Draw for the last 16 will be tomorrow

[Hogmeister]

Thanks again for the update Surprised - will look forward to the draw tomorrow.

And sorry to see that you narrowly missed the cut yourself - that was a close one!

I was beating Karrde until Monday's game and then lost out

[Jonathan]

Group A - Oatfedgoat qualifies as group winner. Jonathan wins his final game and also qualifies as 3rd best runner up

HAPPY CHRISTMAS!!! I hope the draw is kind.

[Surprised]

The draw is made.
Kylie Minogue and Natalie Imbruglia were happy enough to do the draw as scantily dressed pixies (although they told the police later it was against their will. I don't think they understood what the handcuffs were for)

I even have the draw for the qtrs, semi and final if you wish to see

Of course you know I was joking, don't you? I trust you entirely.

Happy Christmas

yes ...no problem.....I did the draw at the same time anyway as that's what the site did for me.
Kylie and Natalie decided not to stay for that bit

When I ran the FPL Knockout cup Kylie helped me out on occasions, too. She is good in draws. Personally I would rather not know my next opponents until the next round is done with.

She has a thing for balls in sacks so it's ideal for her.

Anything can happen in just one match-up Jonathan*, may the best man win!

*as we know from the golf at Test Valley earlier this year

[Surprised]

The cup will commence in GW22.
My late post Christmas update put last Wednesday's game into GW20 when it should really be GW21. Therefore I will start from a fresh week in GW22.

[Surprised]

Last 16 1st leg

Richt takes a useful away lead.
Hogmeister and Jonathan are neck and neck
Could Deppy achieve a cup and league double?

[Richt]

Nose bleed territory for moi!

Thanks for the update, Phil.

[Surprised]

2nd leg and final scores in last 16

[Jonathan]

aha!

[Hogmeister]

aha!

I see it took you all of 2 minutes to get that comment in, Jonathan!

Sigh... not content with making comments about how Reading's new-found wealth is so far only allowing us to buy up QPR rejects, you're now gloating that you've knocked me out of the cup. Oh well... well done, and good luck in the next round.
