2005 Archive: Sixth round

Getting Jiggy with it

It was a high-scoring quarter-final round in Fantasy FA Cup 2005. Jiggy was one of the three entrants to secure 35 out of a possible 40 points. Michael Anders and rpibworth were the other two to achieve this feat, achieved only once before by Alan Wolfe last year. Both Jiggy and Michael moved into the top ten on the back of their predictions, and all three win special bonus prizes to be shipped from India!

John Shearn followed up his record-breaking fourth round with another excellent performance to move into second place behind long-time leader Simon Baister, who pulled out a perfect prediction on the final match of the weekend, Newcastle vs Spurs, to move back into pole position.

Hit me baby

Surprise entrant Britney Spears had a good round, moving up 61 places into 11th. Neither she nor any of the other 113 Man Utd supporters correctly predicted Manchester Utd's 4-0 drubbing of Southampton though.


Eagles Canaries flying

Crystal Palace were displaced by Norwich City after the teams table was recalculated. Only entrants who have entered at least two rounds this year now contribute to the team score. Southampton are second and Cardiff City third, while Chelsea and Ipswich Town sink to the bottom of the table.

Disunited Kingdom

Introducing a new feature bound to provoke some debate... the countries table! Make sure you've selected the correct flag in your profile, because now national honour is also at stake. Currently Scotland and Wales are tying the lead with a 66.9 average apiece. The USA are third, while Malaysia are rooted to the foot of the table
