The Belyea Cup
Welcome back to The Belyea Memorial Cup, Rewarding Excellence in Its Many Forms,
where everyone is a winner, except one.
The game is simple – if you get the best score of the remaining teams, you escape.
Each week at least one team gets out, sometimes more, because they are excellent!
▲ You get up to 38 gameweeks to remove yourself from consideration. ▲
▼🏆▼ The last team to be eliminated… gets the Belyea Cup. ▼🏆▼
If there’s more than one team left after the final gameweek then they all, you know, jointly receive this unique award!
There were two teams topscoring with 60 FPts this week – All Star Gunners have already waved goodbye to The Belyea, but Chicken and Bane San hadn’t, and they take the chance to join ASG on the outside. It pays to follow greatness.
In Week Ten: 30 teams – Barons, Boss, El Dude Bros, Farkelife, Gloopy Yarbles, Housewives Favourite, Mighty fine feeling, Route 57 FC, Sporting Wicker Park, AFC Chester, Allison Wonderland, Atletico Topo Chico, Fergi Time, GoFYS FC, Vanishing Spray FC, Webuiltthis City, BattleVAR Galactico, CG XI, East Loop United, FC Santa Barbara, Peltier, Uncle Monty, Whiskey de Bruyne, Boudi’s Crew, Goleta Hotspur, Harambe Hotspur, Jaysokker, Ole’s at the wheel, SkyPlayerInFPL BFFA, The Phenoms.
The Big One
It’s the BFFA Big One. The tried and tested (albeit inferior) traditional form of English Fantasy Football that requires each manager to build a team with a budget of £150,000,000. These teams must have no more than three players from any PL club, excessive transfers are penalised by point deductions, and everyone gets a Haaland (if they want one). Every team also gets to pick a Captain and there are bonus chips to play across the season – Wildcards, a Bench Boost, a Free Hit and Triple Captain points. This is a classic-style fantasy league, open to all BFFA managers past and present.
We have another League leader this week with the Gloopy Yarbles moving up to the top of the ladder. Ampadu-du-du are proving that they still have that oompah-pah now in second and SBA drop down to third.
There are some big scores on the board this evening coming from the likes of Lingardium Weviosa (90FPts), De Bruyne Trousers (95), Rover Cowley FC (also 95) and Prestige Worldwide almost hitting triple figures too (97). But the big bonuses will be going to the selection commitee behind DCL’s MRI who made thirteen changes to their squad with their early-season Wildcard. Trippier and Mitoma were the only two to avoid the cut; even Haaland was dropped! In came the man DCL himself, alongside Julián Álvarez, Ollie Watkins, Douglas Luiz, Mo Salah, Trent, Vicario and new Captain in the side – Son Heung-Min. And what a week to do it! DCL’s MRI climbed six places with a gargantuan 110 fantasy points.
On top of hosting a league for the BFFA faithful, we are also involving some unsuspecting stars of the game. For the second time this season, our guest is joining us fresh off the field after scoring. Ladies and gentlemen, James Maddison!
The new Spurs man has enjoyed success at Leicester and Norwich, and has also celebrated goals for Coventry and Aberdeen too. Anyone reading last week might know that when he’s not putting balls in nets he manages an FPL team called Rome and Away. Unfortunately for him, he decided not to sign himself yet last week, nor at all this season, despite being the fifth-best midfielder in the game at the moment. But, in his place he has invited five very fine and capable alternatives. His starting four midfielders this week were Mbeumo (14), Saka (5), Palmer (6) and Bruno F. (7). He went for the classic 4-4-2 this week and scored a very respectable 85. His total of 533 puts him 16th in our leaderboard.
Our next guest played against James Maddison in the previous match that he Spurs midfielder found the net. This central midfielder came on at half-time and scored a late consolation goal himself. In fact, he’s faced Maddison playing for four different clubs, but this was the first time scoring against his compatriot.
He’s 27 and started his playing career in the Manchester United academy. He followed in David Beckham’s footsteps by moving from United to Preston North End. The lilywhites progressed him into senior-level football and he helped Preston gain promotion to the Championship in 2015 via the Playoffs. The next season he went on loan to Barnsley, where he won a second League One Play-Off Final in consecutive seasons! That success led him to Bristol City (who had been crowned League One Champions the season before) where he scored sixteen goals across four seasons for The Robins.
In January 2020, just as the world was about to get nasty, he put his signature on a contract for his current club with whom he has been relegated and immediately promoted back to the Premier League. He has scored PL goals against Brighton, Watford and now Spurs. He manages an FPL team called Burnalona fc, and we will see how they are getting on next week.
Until then, have a great week! 🙂
