It can be viewed at FPL/TFF Combo headquarters if you wish to see it on here or we can with until the final is over. It has no name on it apart from mine which I will have to rub out now.
Is it the sort of cup you buy in a gift shop where you can pick from a number of names?

Whoever wins the cup will have their FISO name on it and the year.
it is a virtual cup so will not be a physical thing you can hold aloft and run around your garden as the crowd cheers. It can't go in your trophy cabinet unless you print it out but that's still more than Arsenal have :)
No shop sells such a rare item and it can be kept for ever as a new one will be made for the next season

Semi-Finals

- Same 2 legged format again but the fixtures will be based on the following:
Winner of Quarter Final 1 vs Winner of Quarter Final 2
Winner of Quarter Final 3 vs Winner of Quarter Final 4

Fixture Dates (Week commencing)
TBC but probably GW 29 and 30


Surprised.
I've assumed that my tie was QF3 & Hancockjr was QF4 from the draw in your message on Feb 4th
aha....maybe you were not QF3!
Can I confirm then that the semis don't take place until GW 29 and 30?

Great comp Surprised.

I feel a bit like Bolton, having a poor season (mainly FPL but currently sliding down the TFF table) but still in the cup!

Good luck to all the semi-finalists.

Let battle commence :)

Semi Final 1st leg

It could not be closer and we are in for a nail biting 2nd leg in both games.

Tenpinterry takes a slender lead into the 2nd leg as Richt heads of to his stag do.
In the other game it is again the away side that takes a small lead.

Semi Final results

Richt tried to pull back the deficit from the 1st leg but it let tenpinterry with chances and he took them to advance to the final
hancockjr had a lot to do and Matty B didn't give him any chances.

THE FINAL

Congratulations to tenpinterry for victory in the Champions Cup.
It was a close final, as expected, but Matty B just missed out on a historic cup and league double.

A splendid looking cup. Hopefully next years cup will have past winners on it so I can bask in the glory again.

Great game Surprised. Needed a different strategy to do well in the latter stages. I'll admit to having to use more of my Telegraph transfers to steal a march on Matty B.

Enjoying the Combo League as well, hope to get my fpl game back on track for next year so I can challenge for that as well.
