Fantasy Football Cheat invite you to enter the ‘FFC Cup’ Competition. The FFC Cup is free to enter, and will run up to gameweek 17 when two fantasy teams will go head to head in the FFC Cup final. It’s hugely competitive, but ultimately only one fantasy manager will lift the FFC Cup… could it be you?
The FFC Cup
The competition will be split into two phases. The first phase will be a qualifying league which all teams will be entered into. The second phase will be a knock out competition for the highest scoring 128 teams from the qualifying league. Please read on for more details.
Qualifying League
The first phase of the FFC Cup will be a qualifying league. Every team that enters the FFC Cup will be entered into the qualifying league. The qualifying league will run for 10 gameweeks and will include gameweeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
The 128 teams that accumulate the most fantasy points between gameweek 1 and gameweek 10 will be taken forwards into the knock-out stages.
Knock-Out Stages
The knock-out stages of the FFC Cup will start in gameweek 11. We will randomly draw teams to play against one another. The first round will therefore consist of 64 matches as 128 teams go head to head against a randomly selected opponent.
The team with the highest score will progress through to the next round, with the losing team being eliminated from the competition.
By the time we reach gameweek 15 we will be down to just 8 teams. The final stages of the FFC Cup will therefore be played out as follows:
Gameweek 15 – Quarter-finals
Gameweek 16 – Semi-finals
Gameweek 17 – Final
How do I enter?
Entry is free and easy. The code to enter is 16990-6235.

Evening everyone!
Does anyone have a link or list of every Premier club captain? Might be an interesting angle to try and get a few into the teams given the dependability and likelihood they will play week in week out?
Here you go Father, a list of PL captains:

where’s Tottenhams ?
…and so long Joey Barton… :-p
Just googled ‘premier league captains’ lol.
Thanks Arsene!
f72 think ur find that a club captain does not mean ur nailed to be in xl fella ! they use it not as someone to look up too more that 1st name on the team sheet
That’s probably true bench – looking down the list though certainly has a case for a lot of them though…
Just got me thinking after I read that Vermaelen is likely to become Arsenal’s club captain if Van Persie does actually leave. Kompany, Vidic, Nolan, Holt – they are likely to feature in a lot of teams this season
Actually bench, I think you have to have a captain or vice-captain on the field at all times.
wot thats a must ? so wot if they are both injured do they have to call the game offf hahahaha
Looks like I’m clogging up the recent comments list!
Oops!
Let someone else on Arsene….. Stop arseing around!
arsene, if you keep finding sites like that, you carry on son. ty.
Second that!
Advice please. Which is better team A or B
A:
Begovic (Green)
R. Ferdinand, Zabaleta, Hangerland (Cuellar, Mariappa)
Bale, Pienaar, Hazard, Kagawa (El Ahmadi)
Tevez, Graham, Rooney
B:
Begovic (Green)
R. Ferdinand, Zabaleta, Hangerland (Clyne, Mariappa)
Bale, Yaya, Hazard, Kagawa (El Ahmadi)
Tevez, Pog, Rooney
do you have a C team… ABC?
I see what you did there
I have a similar line up ABC but decided not to risk Kagawa AND Hazard from the outset. Both are new and so could take a while to settle. Of course, they could both explode from the off!
I’ve settled on Hazard though simply because of the DGW and I reckon he’ll play at least 120 minutes over the two games. I brought Nasri in for Kagawa so could switch either of them later
Would prefer Kagawa to Hazard. Kagawa’s from the Bundesliga and players from there tend to settle in faster than those from anywhere else. I also think Hazard has looked pretty timid in pre-season and the community shield. Out of the 2 I’d say Hazard will be the one to take more time to adapt/settle.
Ok thanks for the advice guys
Petric has certainly done well in pre season too… Kagawa has scored some decent winning goals already for Man U… Bench has a point there…
Took me about 4 reads before I could spot the difference, but I reckon A looks slightly better.

Good luck you clown!
just remembered internationals this Wednesday, Was gonna play Ramirez in gw 1 but I’m hearing he’s in the brazil side so best wait! I’m off buddy, later mate.
laters ed that me too
Good evening guys
Any chance you could advise me on my draft team?
DDG, Jussi
Lescott, Ivan, Hangeland, Cuellar, Demel
Bale, Yaya, Ramires, Dyer, Noble
Torres, Teves, Pog
This leaves 4 mil in the bank, so I can upgrade Torres to Rooney if he fluffs his lines, and Ramires to whatever chelsea mid emerges or Valencia for example
Cheers XD
