THE ROAD TO ISTANBUL & GDANSK 2021

[morganb]

Here is the table after the first 6 rounds have been completed - several teams have totally dropped out of both competitions...

[Oxford NZ]

Thanks for the update
My cska pick is the only one I regret
Wahine and thebillfella looking well set, good luck all

[theo29]

the knock-outs begin next week. Have Liverpool the where-withall to advance or is their Prem form a reliable reflection of how it will be in the Champions League. Is it Man City's year or will Chelsea sparkle for their new man ?

[theo29]

MAN CITY, LIVERPOOL & CHELSEA all well placed to go to last 8 with their home games yet to come. No goals conceded as yet !

[Moon Knight]

The table above has Hoffenheim as being knocked out. They’re playing Molde tonight and are currently losing 3-4 on aggregate.

The table above has Hoffenheim as being knocked out. They’re playing Molde tonight and are currently losing 3-4 on aggregate.

Oops! Will reinstated when I next update the chart.

[Moon Knight]

No problem.

They’ve just been knocked out for real.

[theo29]

Foxes leave the road to Gdansky but Spurs,Gunners and Rangers are in this mornings draw. Molde too !

[theo29]

forgot to mention MU. They have drawn Milan. Spurs v Dinamo Zagreb. Gunners go Greek and its Rangers v Slavia who did for the Foxes.

[theo29]

this week Liverpool to go along the road to Istanbul ? The Europa quartet, MU Spurs, Gunners and Rangers, the new Scottish champs play their first leg game. Do we have any FISOers in Scotland ?

[morganb]

Guess this is due an update - will see what I can do today/this week

[theo29]

Liverpool put their Anfield travails behind them and win twice in Budapest to be part of the final 8. Juventus are axed by Porto as are Barcelona by PSG. Europa jamboree tonight.

[morganb]

Latest chart below - hopefully it is correct (Europa had a Round of 32, CL is half way through Round of 16)

[theo29]

another all action week coming up, and with a green and blue chart featuring Spurs and Milan. Can Utd win at San Siro on Thursday ? Great artistry (as always) by morganb.

[Oxford NZ]

Thanks for the update Any chance of artistic licence to tweak my point score ?

[theo29]

Artistic licence not a feature here but Chelsea,Liverpool and City plus Arsenal and Man Utd are in todays draw. Why not join MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER ?

[theo29]

Man City & Liverpool on the road to Istanbul tonight and. Chelsea tomorrow. Can one of these 3 go all the way

Meanwhile MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER could do with a single player to complete the line-up. It could be you !

[morganb]

Guess this needs an updated table, will see what I can do this week...

thanks morganb. It looks as if I will arrive at the 2 destinations at the bottom of the list. No matter because I can use some of these players to fill the gaps if the recruitment for the Giro d'Italia goes badly.
Surely FISO can provide 24 players for a fun comp without any reference to ESL or The Great Game ? We shall see.

[Oxford NZ]

Thanks Morgan and Theo.

[theo29]

all the contenders in action this week to see who will appear in ISTANBUL & GDANSK a little later.
As this comp is about to end most of the 13 entrants will appear on their bikes for the Giro beginning on 8th May.

[theo29]

PRIZE COMPETITION__(needs at least 10 entrants, why not give it a go )

How many goals in total will be scored in the 2 Champions & 2 Europa games this week. Deadline for entry before Man City & PSG play on Wednesday.
This is a small test to see how many actually look at FISO threads other than FPL followers who dominate the online listing.!

[murf]

Not many

(do I mean goals or viewers?)

Say, 6 (this time I do mean goals)

[morganb]

7

Len something.

Sadly not the late, great Len Ganley who said '7' (and other breaks) in a far more dignified way - whilst maintaining a fine stance.

[Oxford NZ]

Guessing at 8. It is 4.15 am here so I have no voice just a whisper atm.

[thebillfella]

8

[theo29]

a big BUMP needed for this to reach 10 by 1900hrs today. Is it likely ?
