Rules

* The whole thing is based on goals scored, rather than fantasy points. 

* You are able to pick a different XI to the one you play in the league, as long as it uses one of these formations: 442, 433, 451, 352, 361 or 343 

* Those who only pick a league team for that scoring week will automatically use that team for the cup. 

* In the Groups stages, each team plays each of the other teams in their group once only.

* Group matches score 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw. 

* The top four teams go through to the 2 legged Quarter Finals. The winner of those will go through to the 2 legged Semi Finals.

* Where two teams are level on points in the group, result in the head to head match will decide. If that was a draw, then it is goals scored before goal difference.

* In the Knockout Stages, in the event of a tie, a replay will be played out with the winning side going through. Should it end in a draw, then the quickest goal scored by either team will win the tie. But it is the time in the matches, not the first goal of the weekend. For example, a goal in the 13th minute in a Sunday match beats a goal scored in the 15th minute in a Saturday match. If the game ends goal-less, penalties will conclude the tie.

* Cup Tied Players - players will be cup-tied during the Group Stage, and then this is wiped clean for the knockout stages, but players are then cup tied again from those rounds. Cup-tied means if they have scored a goal for one team, they cannot play for any other sfp team. However, if they have played in a cup match but not scored, they can play for another team.

* The Final is one leg only.

* The eventual winners will scoop a prize of £40. Runners Up will collect £25
