There are 31 entrants (MereNovice is the 32nd but he's Merely there to admin) so all teams will be drawn against each other and 1 lucky random team will have a 'bye' to the next round.
In the League Cup our lucky player to draw the 'bye' is Bobbins FC (Nicholas Wright). He is through to the round of 16.
It is a fixed draw and the winner of tie 1 will play the winner of tie 2, the winner of tie 3 will play the winner of tie 4, etc, etc. all the way through to the final.
It'll be H2H knockout and there will be 6 GWs play. The semi finals will be 2 leg affairs.

If we get a drawn tie, the League Cup does not have replays so we'll go to a 'penalty shootout' tie break. The tie break will be the same as the ingame FPL Cup tiebreak.
If a cup match is drawn, then the following tie-breaks will be applied until a winner is found:
1.Most goals scored in the Gameweek
2.Fewest goals conceded in the Gameweek
3.Virtual coin toss
The virtual coin toss will be administered by Merciless MereNovice.

What a nice surprise. Looked at the wrong league yesterday and mistakenly thought it was the league cup games. Squeezed through by a solitary point. Having a shocker this year. Team is worth 102.1 mil but can't get the right players on the pitch. Left over 60 points on the bench in the last three weeks!

[POWWWWWWWW]

Had Capoue from the start and on the bench every week, not ideal.

[Ironside]

WTF augero was meant to be out for 3 games didnt think the cup game counted
of well he is going to draw a black today please

A captained Aguero saved me this week 

Had to use my WC just now. I don't normally like using it this early in the season but my squad needed a huge overhaul as I had 4 players that weren't playing (transferred, suspended, injured or dropped) and most of the others were out of form.

first wild card has to be used before the window so now is as good as any to see who has started teh season with early form

 Some highly impressive wheeling and dealing by Plenop this week although he did mention never drinking again on his diary after a night out.
