Round of 16 Group B Week 1 of 3 First Week out and all of the teams are in the same spot as they were ranked. I didn't check goals versus assists here but a nice even distribution. Now AC TIG and Thiku Mariners have their work cut out for them. Do something this weekend or the last one may not matter. AC TIG and Thiku play one of this weeks winners this weekend and are matched up for the final. I am still thinking AC TIG can prove formidable in this group. Just look at the table.

Round of 16 Group C Week 1 of 3 The Ghost Ship takes his first scalp. FC Weymouth gets the Ben Arfa Ship against the bow, and Bale, Mata, Lampard and Lambert hop off and 4 cannon balls taken. ColdDogSoup is next and the Lampard, Mata and Lambert will be facing their real life doubles on Lobo's Team. Lobo will need Silva to put on steam to counter Bale. De Guzman may make good on the double gameweek too. The double gameweek will be major bonus for FC Weymouth. Kopites is loaded up on the defensive end with Carragher and Enrique but Weymouth's got Suarez and Gerrard. Another reminder to Lobo to not mess around. I think this group will go to the last weekend.

Round of 16 Group D Week 1 of 3 Well I must say the WhataBunchofMuppets will need to think what one should say when they leave a productive member of the squad like Enrique on the bench. It could have been a cool 3 points to take to week 2 as FC Springfield and ChrisSuttonsSlippers hit a draw in a much more fireworked filled match. Now he gets to take those to on. Time to start counting Liverpool players on your opponents squads. Swansea and Michu who is still on my squad (and somebody else who suffered the Spaniard's slump) is officially jinxed it seems when it seems to the scoreboard.

Round of 16 Group A Week 2 and 3 of 3 Sorry that it has been a little quiet around here. A bit busy. Meanwhile, in the Golden Boot blech just made it out of the Round of 16 after taking two loses in a row. The win against winless Pittsadelphia gets him through. Aviators has 18 goals and assists in 3 matches. Now Aviators, Central Park Rangers and blech will battle for the two spots available to this group for the Round of 8 brackets.

Round of 16 Group B Weeks 2 & 3 of 3 Another group where the top ranked team finished 3rd. The remaining 3 teams all with a win against Thiku Mariners and one other team. Round of 12 will have each team play against each other once and one bye week over the next 3 Gameweeks. AC TIG and Top Shelf will be matched up as In-A-Gadda-Da-Eden gets to rest.

Round of 16 Group C Weeks 2 & 3 of 3 Real Mos Eisley and the rise of the ghost of Bale continues to list its victims. This time it is Kopite Juniors who had Watto at 4 goals and assists but took Walters penalty miss to the wrecked ship graveyard. ColdDogSoup FC and FC Weymouth will fight it out this weekend before each must face Watto in due time.

Round of 16 Group D Weeks 2 & 3 of 3 ChrisSuttonsSlippers might be rethinking the Holtby transfer like I am in. But this group was just plain vicious. Even FC Springfield went through the shredder after scoring 14 goals and assists. WhataBunchofMuppets gets the reward of a rest this weekend. The bye weeks on Week 29 could be a tripping hazard so consult your financial advisor on the wisdom of making advanced transfers. Lobo and Bigboat financial houses are willing to assist for those who seek advice.

Though they may be the most responsible party to eliminating Sasha Juniors from this cup. They are the only team ranked 4th in their group to make it out of the Round of 16. Moreover, they won their group. I expect the Muppet theme name will increase in popularity in a widening area of influence.
Just wanting to confirm since you had indicated back in post 1 of this thread that short gameweeks would not count. Is the Golden Boot on in GW29? I believe we're currently down to only 6 games. Some interesting decisions to be made in the coming weeks.
yes an interesting problem. A possibility would be a curve ball. Each 3 teams of each Group needs to amass as many goals and assists in the 3 gameweeks. Top two move one. I don't know if the double gameweeks throw everything out of whack again in the coming gameweeks if all 4 games fall in the same gameweek.
4 cancelled games is too many. So that week will not count. I had built two none-gameweeks into the schedule. The alternate idea was too abritrary anyways.
Round of 12 Group A Week 1 and Cancelled Week This group was not too shabby for a week cancelled. So far only one round has gone by. A lot of Stewart Downing in this group. Aviators will have to work the bones into shape after a 2 week hiatus. Central Park Rangers are down to their last match and it is a must win.

Since you did my group, I ran quickly through the other three. This is what I put down for the goals and assists from gw28 (two gameweeks ago). Pipe up quickly if anything is wrong. Group B: AC TIG -- 1 v 6 -- Top Shelf In-A-Gadda scores 3 in bye week Group C: ColdDogSoup -- 0 v 7 -- FC Weymouth Real Mos Eisley scores 1 in bye week Group D: Nellie Wanderers -- 2 v 1 -- FC Springfield WhataBunchofMuppets scores 5 in bye week There were no games in gw29. AC TIG, CDS, and Nellie do not play during round 2 (aka gw30). Notes: - The first round was the 2 v 3 game. The #3 team won 3 of the 4. - WhataBunchofMuppets was the only #1 team that outscored both of its opponents. - There are some massive goal outputs to be overcome in groups A, B, and C, should it come down to a 3-way tiebreaker.
I even have an international break so no excuses not to get caught up... Round of 12 Group A Week 2 Well after a massive weekend that was called off, Aviators and blech played a milder match up. Blech gets to enjoy a long rest as they have gone 2 and are out. Aviators and Central Park Rangers have a great match up. Aviators must win while Central Park Rangers will be happy with a draw.

Round of 16 - Group B Weeks 1 and 2 A tough group this one is. AC TIG has a massive outing with Hazard captain but watched it fizzle as they take a bye week. Top Shelf finishes the two matches with a win and 8 goals and assists. Pretty good padding as AC TIG has to make up a 7 goal differential to catch up with them. But In-A-Gadda-Da-Eden can be Top Shelf's best friend if that can just take care of the AC TIG problem.

Round of 12 Group C - Weeks 1 and 2 Two gameweeks down and one to go and Lobo is going to have to take on the ghost ship Real Mos Eisley . It is a classic tale of alliances needing to be broken. FC Weymouth looks safe with 9 goals and assists. You might think that Lobo is going to have to wish against Chelsea and Mata and Lampard. But no worries, it will really come down to Bale. Lobo and the Junk Dealer with cancel out their Mata, Lampards and Lamberts. Lobo is going to have to hope that the slumping Man City can find their form and Ya Ya and Silva are the ones to do it.

Round of 12 - Group D Weeks 1 & 2 And just like that FC Springfield have crashed out of the competition.

Aviators are making some impressive moves to get back to Small Rocks and with a Bale, Cazorla and Gerrard midfield could be in good shape to do so. Here in the Golden Boot, Hal had the kind of weekend I wished I had in this competition. Going out in the final match with no wins and no goals or assists at all and then a 7 goal and assist romp.

Round of 12 - Group B Week 3 Wrap Up AC TIG had the massive outing of 7 Goals and Assists to tie Top Shelf. In-A-Gadda-Da-Eden came up with 2 and also tied.
