CUPDATE – ROUND 1 STANDINGS

With the start of the October Gamemonth a few weeks ago came the start of the FFUK Cup. And what a funny old Gamemonth it is! First of all it’s only three weeks long – brutal if you have have a bad week in there. Secondly scoring has been almost apocalyptically low, and that means, with one week left to go, a lot of ties are very tight!

43% of the 128 matches are currently being led by less than 10 points! That’s 55 matches in total that hang by the loosest of threads. What’s even crazier still though is that of though 55 matches only two are currently tied!

Ben Eastwood vs Marcus Blowers is 65 all, and Toby Jones vs Matthew Page-Chatton is tied up in 68s. Ready FFUKers, in the event of a tie it’s the previous Gamemonth score that determines the winner – in this case the September scores. And if those are level we go back to August. And if those are level I decide who wins based on who has the best team name  🙂

Four managers are in the enviable position of being 40+ points clear – which is truly remarkable given the low scoring in general. They are:  Toby Glicher (+40), David Sullivan, playing FFUK when not running West Ham United, (+44), Chris Bennett (+42) and Nathan Boucher (+44).

Here’s a list of all the ties and how things stand after two weeks. There’s just one week left to rescue tie – anyone fancy using any chips?

Good luck everyone, and remember, if you do get knocked out there’s always the Milk Plate!

Cheers,

Bakes
