The cup started last week and I just managed to scrape through to the second round with a 51 - 50 win.
The team I beat was almost one million places below me at start of play, but he had Gareth Bale in his team who nearly did it for him.
My next opponent is about 40,000 places above me. Time for a giant killing I hope.
How did everyone else get on? Are we all still standing?

Well done on your cup win Rob and hope you have a good run.As Milay stated Everton and Tottenham both play twice in week 20 and might be worth considering selecting a few Spurs and Everton as there other matches are against lesser opposition.I have gradually sneaked a few Everton players into my squad and by the start of week 20 should have 6 players playing twice.This plan does not always pay off,but you could, if you wanted have your captain playing twice,which could pay dividends,and the week afterwards if needed your wildcard could be used.
Remember your transfers for week 19 have to be tonight as Liverpool are playing Everton
Good Luck

Only 1 goal scored, no assists, no clean sheets, only 3 bonus points scored. I had a mare.

That late Sunderland winner did for me, clean sheets from Hart and Kompany would have left me well clear. Lost 29-31.
Look on the bright side Rob you can now concentrate on the league
Avoiding relegation in my case.

I'm getting really good at this game.
Demba Ba goes to the Afican Cup Of Nations so who do I transfer in?
Yakubu, who promptly gets sent off and earns me a total of -2 points.
Like I said I'm getting good at this.

Yer not the only one!Yakubu, who promptly gets sent off and earns me a total of -2 points.

Brought in Walcott and Holt this week. three goals between them in the first half makes it one of my few inspired decisions

And then Holt gets sent off. Could be a short stay in my team. Shame as they have some decent fixtures coming up. Suarez as skipper plus McLean in mf so should be a decent week for me.
