Rules:
- There are no restrictions in play, each week you will score whatever your net score is in FPL. So if your team gets 60 points but you've taken a -8 your score for the week will be 52 points.
- Should a Partreon decide to leave during the tournament (this is inevitable unfortunately) they will be removed from the competition immediately. If this happens during a Group Stage their results will be null & void and the Group will continue without them. Should they leave before the conclusion of a knockout tie their opponent will receive a bye to the next round.
In the Group Stage it's 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw.
Criteria for progression in the event of two or more teams finishing level on points in the Group Stage:
- Points in head-to-head matches among tied teams
- FPL points difference in head-to-head matches among tied teams
- Goals scored by FPL players in head-to-head matches among tied teams
- Away goals scored in head-to-head matches among tied teams
- FPL points difference in all group matches
- Least FPL points hits during the Group Stage
- Goals scored by FPL players owned in all Group matches
- Clean sheets by FPL players in all Group matches
In the knockout stage ties will be played over 2 legs (Home & away), except for the final which will be played in GW38. In the event that scores are level the criteria to seperate teams will be:
- Away FPL points scored (not applicable in the final)
- Least FPL points hits taken for duration of the tie
- Goals scored by FPL players
- Clean sheets by FPL players
- Assists by FPL players
- Red cards by FPL players
- Yellow cards by FPL players
- FPL Captain points
- FPL points during the whole season

My season is off to a Real Debacle ... terrible weekend in FPL and my cell phone died ... hitting rock bottom ... is there a loser's cup?! No podcast dog walks. The upside ... no twitter!
