The Scout League And Cup Round Up

With the 2012/13 Premier League season now behind us, it’s time to look back at those in the Fantasy Football Scout community who have excelled in our leagues and cups across the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) and Sky Sports Games. We’ll also showcase those who have triumphed in some of this season’s community managed tournaments.

FPL Scout League Standings

As we announced back on the day, Matt Martyniak gained a Gameweek 38 points haul of 69, the Scout League crown and top spot in the overall game thanks to his decision to hand the armband to Gareth Bale and transfer out Marouane Fellaini for Brazilian starlet Philippe Coutinho. Coutinho’s bonus points, along with the maximum from Jose Enrique, ultimately saw Matt triumph by just three points. Congratulations Matt on an incredible achievement.

Former number one Kelvin Travers was the unlucky runner up, finishing with a season score of 2,470. Kelvin’s decision to bench West Brom’s on loan hat-trick hero Romelu Lukaku will surely haunt him and, with a two-point lead going into the bonus points awards, Kelvin had the crown snatched away as a result of Coutinho and Enrique’s bonus returns.

Our ScoutCast star Evs finishes the season third with a total score of 2,456 in the Scout League after his risky decision to captain Swansea star Michu, who sadly for this site regular, drew a blank. Evs did, however, finish top of the Scout Members league.

Julian Zipparo, another to feature on the ScoutCast and also another former overall number one, finishes the season in fourth in the Scout League and second in the Scout Members league with a score of 2,455.

A score of 77, thanks to Lukuka’s hattrick and his decision to captain Bale, proved enough for Paul O Gorman to take fifth place in the Scout League and end the season on 2,439 points.

Our FPL top five’s achievements helped the Scout League end the season as the game’s top ranked league beating our Members league into second place by 21.8 points. That’s the first time that both our leagues topped the FPL rankings – a superb outcome and testament to the knowledge and expertise within the community.

Sky Sports Scout League Standings

During the final gameweek, Chris Pearce held on to his lead at the top of our Sky Sports Scout League, finishing 35 points ahead of Paul McAnulty and his “Housewives Favourite” side. Sadly, Chris’ achievement was not enough to unseat Simon Ward from top spot overall.

Fantasy Football legend Pascal Evans, who has four top 1,000 finishes in FPL over the last six seasons, shows that he is a master across Fantasy football games by claiming third and fifth spots in our Sky Sport Scout League; Neil Fleeson completes our Sky roll of honour, taking fourth spot.

Once again, the Scout League emerged as the top Private League in this game. Once we’ve got wind of the prize money, we’ll be contacting the top five managers who contributed to our score and distributing the £2500 prize money amongst them.

Champions League Standings

With the Wembley Final pending, Paul will be rounding up the Scout League standings in the official game and the TotelFootall Private Pool in a follow-up article.

Scout Cup Tournaments

Acquafresca emerged victorious in our third FFS Members Cup with a 72-52 win over Eunuch Jelly in April. His decision to captain Robin Van Persie, who racked up 34 points that week, proved the difference.

In January Wild Rover claimed victory in the Fantasy Football Scout Paddy Power Cup Final following his 87-75 win over Mile High in the final, which fell during the double Gameweek 23. Santi Cazorla and Joe Cole’s points hauls that week were enough to carry Wild Rover to the crown. He joins previous winners donnellyc, Goonerdave, Ninja_Fit_Saints, sleepingmaster, Mch and some chap called Jonty, in our hall of fame and automatic qualification to future Fantasy Football Scout Paddy Power Cup.

All our Members Cup and Scout Cup and quarter-finalists gained automatic entry to our inaugural FFS Shield. Mr KK gained top spot, beating Fuzzy Dunlop 53-49 in a close final this month.

Community Leagues and Cups

FFS UEFA, which organises a raft of cups and leagues for the Fantasy Football Scout community, had another busy season.

Two sets of league fixtures took place in which community members were given the names of European top flight clubs. During season one Epic Fail scooped the Premier League crown, Boom Shakalaka took La Liga, Sarnab clinched Ligue 1, Forca Inter claimed Serie A’s top spot, Valar Morghulis won the Bundesliga and Funky AV achieved victory in the Rest of Europe League. Season two saw Evs win the Premier League, Ajay take La Liga, Aditya crowned champion of Ligue 1, Forca Inter keep his hold on Serie A, 4vets scoop the Bundesliga title and Jinswick named champion of the Rest of Europe League.

Elsewhere among the FFS UEFA competitions, MJ6987 won their Champions League, Acquafresca the Europa League, ENR the European Super Cup and Milanista & Parmtree won the UEFA Nations Super Cup. Aatish and Nitin won the doubles tournament and the Pakistan team, captained by 4vets and coached by Shipstrontrev won FFS UEFA’s ICC cricket themed group tournament.

FFS UEFA community is not resting on its laurels during the close season and has a compelling new transfer style game to keep the community busy over the summer. There are more details about that here.

Community regulars Doosra and Ginkapo, who have both featured on our ScoutCast, have also been busy this year running a range of tournaments. Evs won both their “Long and Winding Road” league and one of their five head-to head-leagues. The other four head to head winners were The ParmTree, Mull, Maximerised and that bloke Jonty again. Doosra’s Simpli-Special Knockout Cup was won by Hard Van Toulouse.

If you’re organising a league or cup competition within the Fantasy Football Scout community, be sure to drop me a line at jonty@fantasyfootballscout.co.uk . Next season, we’ll be running weekly round-up articles and will look to feature any tournaments available which are open to the community.

            So if you win the Europa cup you get into champions league, and if you are crap at that you get into Europa cup and if you win that you get into the champions league and if you are crap at that you drop into the Europa league and if you win that you get into the champions league.......
            So potentially Wigan could get relegated to div 2 or lower and then win champ league

                              To make the League Cup more competitive for us all , surely the FA should credit it with a Europa Cup place at least for the winners - It would then heighten its value to bigger clubs to stop them fielding 2nd rate XI's .

                                      I definitely had a couple of fortunate wins, especially in the group decider when I was sure Vets was going to beat me and the my captain Aguero didn't play and I got a good VC (or something). And the 2 baps for Sagna to tie with Zep in the final, and therefore win on goals scored!

                                      Need some luck to win it.

                                      Hehe I won't argue. Apart from the fact there were easier opponents like you, ColeHole, Fratboy, etc. last year, there was no qualification to actually enter the Cup in the first place.

                                    It's definitely closer than that.

                                    Koeman was amazing with his range of passing and his free-kicks. 187 goals in 532 appearances for a CB is pretty awesome.

                                MLS is just a better system than all other footy leagues imo.

                                This based on my footy manager experience. Traded hard to get a cracking striker and he has two goals against LA Galaxy in 5 minutes now. Who said the Stoke system wasnt an english export?

                                    It always takes me a while to get used to a new team, and the fact that I can compete is just amazing.

                                    Just getting used to it, picked up a fair few draft picks whilst upgrading my squad preseason so hopefully I will get a cracking team at the end of this season. 😀

                                      I started watching Serie A towards the end of Baresi's career around 95/96 so Maldini has the slight edge based on how much more i've seen of him.

                                  Maldini, but I was still quite young when Baresi retired whereas I was watching Maldini play from the age of about 4 to 21.

                                  This might not go down well, but both underwhelming as far as I'm concerned. Sheringham probably edges it.

                                  Nesta, just. He had more ability but was at times blighted by injury. Cannavaro's mental attributes ere superior, he put in extremely committed performances and excelled at getting away with a nice bit of cynical defending.

                                  A brilliant CB pairing.
