FFS MEMBERS CUP
Gameweek 19 was a free week for the FFS Members Cup. Round 3 will take place in Gameweek 20, and Plasticnancy is the highest ranked player in this one too.
Both Cups are organised by Fantasy Football Scout and should not be confused with the League Cups listed on FPL’s Leagues & Cups page.

DECEMBER TO MAY LEAGUE
CT K has regained the lead from Kiran (FPL Brains) in my December to May League (league code 02vm22) after captaining Harry Kane, and has risen from 507k to 36k overall in the three Gameweeks since the World Cup. He or she previously led after Gameweek 17.
The December to May League is this season’s version of the January to May League, which has been running since 2014/15 and was a successor to TorresMagic’s After Xmas and Second Wildcard Leagues. It started scoring a little earlier than usual this time because of the World Cup break – in Gameweek 17 (like FPL’s Second Chance mini-league, which copied the idea).
