24hoursfromtulsehill Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Getting through the Group of Death is no big deal for a Champion but you've got to admire 20 points for and 18 against and a five-point margin to one of the dead ones.

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) The cup was a slight distraction, as this seasons priority is the league, but being in with a chance of progressing to the next round the 1st team may not get a rest this weekend.You're not necessarily a cup-only player but to be fair, you've been lucky to get through with such a pisspoor points total. Edit: my mistake. You didn't get through after all. Season over then. Hard lines. Edited February 17, 2016 by 24hoursfromtulsehill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzlatic Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 You rotten sod. I might have needed that point. But well spotted. I hadn't noticed it. Sorry Bristol, I knew it made all the difference, was fighting for my cup life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one scored more. And never mind about badges. Where's your actual title? Haven't got one? Stick your badges up your bollocks is my advice.

Stevie_J Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 Sorry Bristol, I knew it made all the difference, was fighting for my cup life! You'd have scraped through on points-for anyway. Easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite as impressive as doing so when conceding just shy of 6pts/game but an achievement all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzlatic Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 You'd have scraped through on points-for anyway. Easy. I see your holiday and raise you dealing with a 5 day old! So normally where I'd be pretty confident with my maths I'm now not so sure. But I think I'm right in saying that he'd have one more point for and I'd have one more point against, so he'd have been ahead by 1 on points difference. Anyway, onwards and upwards, we go again, lets see what the boys can bring to the party in the next round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolatic Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Missed out by one on goal difference. I just knew I needed a decent striker. Actually, a half decent one might have done it. Well done to nzlatic for taking it away from me in the last match. The bastard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsewhere, any remaining hopes of silverware DavidCollinge had were left in tatters by a ruthless Carl Waters, who continues his barnstorming cup form. nzlatic and Stevie_J also progress to the last eight.

disjointed Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) Would appear that someone is keen to retain the cup. The cup has become a drab affair on the showing of 5 goal less draws. Some of the teams that were eliminated early on would surely have given the cup more of a Samba feel if they had proceeded further.
