There will be summaries but not likely weekly. Maybe a "Game of the Week" type scenario. Everyone will be able to see the Table on FPL anyway Speaking of Sweet FA Cup... there are still 9 naughty people who have not joined, I will have to talk to Sonabert and get him to penalise you "naught pts if you do not join soon. Congrats to Dust who have had all 8 Managers join..... booooooo to the other 3 Leagues who have 3 from each who have not: .. they are: Sasha Juniors FC Springfield FC St Pauli Top Shelf Pittsadelphia Glorydaze BallyBoyz CF (very naughty ) ChrisSuttonsSlippers denoc 75/Nellie/whatever The code to join is 38930-371157
Name the punishment, I'm more than keen to see naughty boys punished Possibly double their points ? or even dismiss them from the competition like the Naughty Boys they are.

=========== Gameweek 3 =========== Group S - Drafting 1st Yellowcake Phantoms just edge ahead of Sasha Juniors to become the third team to record a victory. Bally Boyz CF next week? Group P - Drafting 2nd Awesenal make it a second win; with ChrisSuttonsSlippers lagging five points behind. Group O - Drafting 3rd FC Newark become the third team to claim a weekly victory. FC Springfield may not have posted the lowest score of the week, but they do need to liven up. Kopite Juniors still need to step up to the plate. Group R - Drafting 4th VegasVirgins and SSC Snoopy share the points with a healthy score of 56. Group T - Drafting 5th Ben Giveth & Benteke managed to get the better of ThiKu Rapids and almost doubled the score of blechs_dawgs. Group I - Drafting 6th WhataBunchofMuppets! and 868warriors tied, with a score of 34. Unfortunately, they tied for last place. Glorydaze posted the top score overall this week. Group N - Drafting 7th HazMat+9 get on the scoreboard, while last place Not-a-Cisse is starting to look like one. Group G - Drafting 8th denoc75 become the third team to secure a win, while Wewunwunce never seem to win at all. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/Phase1.htm
=========== Gameweek 4 =========== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group S - Drafting 1st ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A win for Bally Boyz CF brings everyone up to a win apiece. Bally Boyz CF 50; FC Weymouth 47; Sasha Juniors 43; Yellowcake Phantoms 41. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group P - Drafting 2nd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's another win for Awesenal; to make it three out of four. Three more and they're guaranteed a place in the next round. Awesenal 74; ColdDogSoup FC 56; ChrisSuttonsSlippers 51; Top Shelf 46. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group O - Drafting 3rd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FC Springfield sprung a hop on two of the group but ran out of bounce when coming up to the line. Coach wiggum is still without a win while FC Newark make it two in a row. FC Newark 51; FC Springfield 49; Island Hopping 46; Keysersoze Wanderers 38. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group R - Drafting 4th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SSC Snoopy get themselves on the winning scoresheet; having earned a draw with VegasVirgins the previous week. In a futile atempt to at least grab a point from somewhere, Kopite Juniors tried to poach Aaron Ramsey from a Very Small Rocker. That little attempt to turn the player's head cost the club eight points; which Island Hopping may be grateful for come the end of the season. SSC Snoopy 56; Kopite Juniors 44; VegasVirgins 40; Pararaiders 31. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group T - Drafting 5th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This league is turning into a competition between Ben Giveth & Benteke and ThiKu Rapids, while Pittsadelphia and blechs_dawgs just sit there helplesslyn, like roos in headlights waiting for the sound of the 'boom bar'. Ben Giveth & Benteke 56; ThiKu Rapids 51; Pittsadelphia 49; blechs_dawgs 31. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group I - Drafting 6th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Glorydaze may feel hard done by not to earn a point, but FC Touchline Ban are just thankful that the elimination point hasn't been reached yet. 868warriors 65; Glorydaze 61; WhataBunchofMuppets! 31; FC Touchline Ban 28. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group N - Drafting 7th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Not-a-Cisse still haven't got what in takes to secure a gameweek win while Aviators are happy there's no deductions for lowest score of the week. Now there's an idea for a competition. Second win for HazMat+9, by the way. HazMat+9 46; Not-a-Cisse 42; Real Mos Eisley 41; Aviators 23. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group G - Drafting 8th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BiggerBoat are finally afloat and sailing ahead of the fleet; or is it a case of one week on and one week off? BiggerBoat 62; FC St. Pauli 58; denoc75 34; Wewunwunce 32. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/Phase1.htm
Awesenal are killing my group. If bloody Coutinho had bothered turning up I might have gotten close this gameweek.
=========== Gameweek 5 =========== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group S - Drafting 1st ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yellowcake Phantoms and Bally Boyz CF are lucky they both have a win to their name as their combined scores couldn't match FC Weymouth; who only came in second this week. Sasha Juniors takes the three points - easily. Sasha Juniors 74; FC Weymouth 45; Bally Boyz CF 27; Yellowcake Phantoms 16. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group P - Drafting 2nd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Awesenal stuttered with a lowish score of 49, which allowed ChrisSuttonsSlippers to take the win. ChrisSuttonsSlippers 61; Awesenal 49; ColdDogSoup FC 42; Top Shelf 40. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group O - Drafting 3rd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FC Springfield registered a healthy score of 65 this week, but it still wasn't enough for their first three points on the table. Keysersoze Wanderers 70; FC Springfield 65; FC Newark 64; Island Hopping 55. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group R - Drafting 4th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kopite Juniors finally get on the scoreboard. This group is now wide open. Kopite Juniors 59; SSC Snoopy 45; Pararaiders 43; VegasVirgins 28. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group T - Drafting 5th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ThiKu Rapids, blechs_dawgs and Pittsadelphia all score 48 this week, but Ben Giveth & Benteke still take the three points. blechs_dawgs and Pittsadelphia are still on 0 points. Ben Giveth & Benteke 60; ThiKu Rapids 48; blechs_dawgs 48; Pittsadelphia 48. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group I - Drafting 6th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Island Hopping would have been onto a winner with 55 points in this group, instead it's lowest score in Group O. First three points for FC Touchline Ban. FC Touchline Ban 54; WhataBunchofMuppets! 48; Glorydaze 32; 868warriors 28. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group N - Drafting 7th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Not-a-Cisse register their first Gameweek win. Not-a-Cisse 69; Real Mos Eisley 62; Aviators 60; HazMat+9 45. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group G - Drafting 8th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BiggerBoat start to extend their lead at the top. BiggerBoat 70; Wewunwunce 58; denoc75 50; FC St. Pauli 48. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/Phase1.htm In case I didn't mention you already..... Teams without a win: Top Shelf (Group P); FC Springfield (Group O); blechs_dawgs and Pittsadelphia (Group T); Wewunwunce (Group G).
=========== Gameweek 6 =========== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group S - Drafting 1st ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sasha Juniors 37; FC Weymouth 33; Yellowcake Phantoms 26; Bally Boyz CF 22. In a low scoring gameweek for Group S, Sasha Juniors make it win number three; one more and they'll be through to Phase 2. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group P - Drafting 2nd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Awesenal 85; ColdDogSoup FC 64; ChrisSuttonsSlippers 35; Top Shelf 21. Even though they have win number four in the bag, Awesenal could still fail to make it through to Phase two; if ColdDogSoup FC and ChrisSuttonsSlippers win three each out of the next six gameweeks. A win for Top Shelf, somewhere along the line, and Awesenal will advance. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group O - Drafting 3rd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Island Hopping 80; FC Springfield 43; Keysersoze Wanderers 36; FC Newark 32. Island Hopping join FC Newark and Keysersoze Wanderers on the two wins apiece perch. FC Springfield is left at the bottom of the cage, picking at the loose seed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group R - Drafting 4th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pararaiders 65; Kopite Juniors 60; VegasVirgins 33; SSC Snoopy 32. A healthy gameweek score of 60 may have lifted Kopite Juniors from 8th to 5th in our Very Small Rocks League, but it was not enough to stop Pararaiders making a smash and grab for the three points here. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group T - Drafting 5th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ben Giveth & Benteke 57; ThiKu Rapids 44; blechs_dawgs 36; Pittsadelphia 23. Ben Giveth & Benteke taketh win number four but, as with the awesome Awesenal in Group P, a place in the next phase is not yet a given. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group I - Drafting 6th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FC Touchline Ban 70; WhataBunchofMuppets! 57; Glorydaze 36; 868warriors 29. Two wins in a row make it equal six points with - who would believe it - two lowest (under 30) gameweek scores in a row; 868warriors. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group N - Drafting 7th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Real Mos Eisley 47; Aviators 44; HazMat+9 35; Not-a-Cisse 29. Win number two for Real Mos Eisley keeps Group N wide open. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group G - Drafting 8th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FC St. Pauli 58; denoc75 58; BiggerBoat 32; Wewunwunce 27. When a sail on BiggerBoat rips and stalls the ship's movement, there's a drop in wind and nearest rivals FC St. Pauli and denoc75 limp over the line with a solitary point each. Lest We Forget...... Teams STILL without a win: Top Shelf (Group P); FC Springfield (Group O); blechs_dawgs and Pittsadelphia (Group T); Wewunwunce (Group G). http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/Phase1.htm
=========== Gameweek 7 =========== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group S - Drafting 1st ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's ANOTHER low scoring gameweek for Group S, but this time it's Yellowcake Phantoms who take advantage. I never did think drafting first was up to much. Yellowcake Phantoms 37; Sasha Juniors 30; Bally Boyz CF 24; FC Weymouth 21. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group P - Drafting 2nd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A stall for Awesenal let's the soupy one warm it up a little. ColdDogSoup FC 49; Top Shelf 43; Awesenal 41; ChrisSuttonsSlippers 37. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group O - Drafting 3rd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nice to see CoachWiggum finally get in the mix. FC Springfield 55; FC Newark 44; Island Hopping 38; Keysersoze Wanderers 37. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group R - Drafting 4th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Win number three for Pararaiders; nightmare week for SSC Snoopy. Pararaiders 50; VegasVirgins 43; Kopite Juniors 42; SSC Snoopy 18. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group T - Drafting 5th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A fifth win for Ben Giveth & Benteke means qualification to Phase 2. That's a slither of good news for blechs_dawgs and Pittsadelphia who still don't have a point between them; ThiKu Rapids only lead them by two wins. There's still time to turn it around. Ben Giveth & Benteke 54; blechs_dawgs 48; Pittsadelphia 36; ThiKu Rapids 23. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group I - Drafting 6th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ WhataBunchofMuppets! join FC Touchline Ban and 868warriors on two wins. WhataBunchofMuppets! 50; Glorydaze 47; 868warriors 27; FC Touchline Ban 20. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group N - Drafting 7th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aviators haven't registered a win since Gameweek 1 and now sit bottom of Group N. Not-a-Cisse 52; Real Mos Eisley 49; HazMat+9 44; Aviators 39. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group G - Drafting 8th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nothing's certain in this group except that the fans of Wewunwunce have forgoten the words of the song; as victory was so long ago that even the current chairman wasn't born. denoc75 44; FC St. Pauli 43; BiggerBoat 40; Wewunwunce 38. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/Phase1.htm
=========== Gameweek 8 =========== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group S - Drafting 1st ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yellowcake Phantoms might be 31st in the 32-team All Rocks League, but they're still in with a chance of advancing from this group; although FC Weymouth now join them on 6 points. As a footnote, Bally Boyz CF also drafted 1st and are rock bottom of the All Rocks League. FC Weymouth 64; Yellowcake Phantoms 51; Bally Boyz CF 51; Sasha Juniors 42. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group P - Drafting 2nd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Top Shelf are still without a point, but win the next three Gameweeks and they could still qualify. ColdDogSoup FC 68; ChrisSuttonsSlippers 59; Awesenal 54; Top Shelf 54. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group O - Drafting 3rd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FC Springfield are dangerous when they awake from slumber. All teams are now on six points. FC Springfield 80; Keysersoze Wanderers 54; FC Newark 53; Island Hopping 49. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group R - Drafting 4th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Win number four for Pararaiders; Kopite Juniors just treading water. Pararaiders 71; SSC Snoopy 57; VegasVirgins 32; Kopite Juniors 31. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group T - Drafting 5th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In a low-scoring gameweek for Group T, blechs_dawgs manage to take advantage and record their first win. Pittsadelphia are still struggling. blechs_dawgs 47; ThiKu Rapids 44; Pittsadelphia 44; Ben Giveth & Benteke 31. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group I - Drafting 6th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A second win for Glorydaze puts everyone on six points. Glorydaze 70; WhataBunchofMuppets! 63; 868warriors 59; FC Touchline Ban 39. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group N - Drafting 7th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aviators get back on track for their second win; to make this the third group where eveyone sits safely on six points. Aviators 69; Not-a-Cisse 52; HazMat+9 48; Real Mos Eisley 34. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group G - Drafting 8th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's still too early to say that BiggerBoat is sinking but Wewunwunce have yet to set sail. FC St. Pauli 53; Wewunwunce 51; BiggerBoat 38; denoc75 34. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/Phase1.htm
=========== Gameweek 9 =========== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group S - Drafting 1st ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Oh so close for Yellowcake Phantoms, but it's a fourth win for Sasha Juniors. Sasha Juniors 66; Yellowcake Phantoms 65; FC Weymouth 61; Bally Boyz CF 60. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group P - Drafting 2nd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Top Shelf are still without a win but a high gameweek score of 65 equals that of group leader, Awesenal. Hurrah for a point! Awesenal 65; Top Shelf 65; ChrisSuttonsSlippers 57; ColdDogSoup FC 48. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group O - Drafting 3rd ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Captain Nomad was found flat On The Road after being steamrolled by FC Springfield; as both teams captained Suarez. FC Springfield 78; On The Road 71; FC Newark 59; Keysersoze Wanderers 34. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group R - Drafting 4th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If Pararaiders keep winning, four points may be enough to qualify as runner-up. Chloe Adams was seen scouting the Pararaiders team and said she'd be happy with a draw, if that's all it would take to make phase two. Pararaiders 66; Kopite Juniors 57; SSC Snoopy 54; VegasVirgins 43. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group T - Drafting 5th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Another win will be enough for ThiKu Rapids to make the second phase, while Pittsadelphia are still trying to figure out how to win. That could be quite hard for a team that still hasn't managed to record the second-highest group score in a gameweek; although they have now bettered blechs_dawgs three times. Tip: You need to beat everyone in the group to record a win. ThiKu Rapids 47; Ben Giveth & Benteke 40; Pittsadelphia 39; blechs_dawgs 37. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group I - Drafting 6th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FC Touchline Ban secure a narrow victory. FC Touchline Ban 70; WhataBunchofMuppets! 69; Glorydaze 57; 868warriors 34. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group N - Drafting 7th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It was a close call in this group too. Real Mos Eisley 52; Not-a-Cisse 51; Aviators 49; HazMat+9 33. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Group G - Drafting 8th ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Transfering in Fernando Torres wasn't enough to spark the BiggerBoat engines. It's now two weeks in a row they have been outscored by Wewunwunce. FC St. Pauli 67; Wewunwunce 49; BiggerBoat 40; denoc75 37. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/Phase1.htm
