APL Cup - Quarter Finals

[CrowsFan]

That's right everyone, we are taking a break from league action and getting the cup competition underway. For those who don't remember how it works you will play the same team twice over the next two game weeks, with the winner progressing through to the next round.

To win you need to either beat the opposition in both the home and away legs, or if it is tied at one each whoever has scored more goes through. If that is also tied then whoever scored more away from home progresses. If for some reason that is also tied the team higher up in the table will go through.

So the fixtures...

APL Cup Quarter Finals
Leg 1
QF1: KKS United vs The Brown Trumpets @ Spin-Kick Arena
QF2: YNWA Warriors vs Blue Mountain State @ YNWA Park
QF3: The Flippin' Pancakes vs Scaling Saints @ WACA
QF4: Goodfellas vs The Casserole Kids @ Old Trafford


Trade Cut Off Point
For players to be eligible for round 2 they mus be traded in to your team before midnight Thursday 25th October. Trades after this wont be eligible until the following round.

Team Submission
Your team sheet must be submitted in this thread no later than midnight Friday 26th October. If your team is not submitted then your team from last week will be used. Team structure is identical to the official game and must be adhered to. This means:
•   The starting 11 must have ONLY 1 keeper named
•   The starting 11 must have AT LEAST 3 defenders named
•   The starting 11 must have AT LEAST 1 forward named
•   The bench must be named in order of your preferred replacements, starting with your reserve keeper, and followed by the remaining 3 players.

Good luck everyone :)

P.S If MTTY doesn't name a team this week he will be sacked...
