Rules
Locked for the 2026-27 season — even if the draft gets redone. This page renders straight from scoring.json, the same file the scoring engine reads.
Every matchweek
Premier League matches only, final scores only
| Your club wins | +3 |
| Your club draws | +1 |
| Your club loses | 0 |
| Giant-killing — your club beats a club drafted before it (lower pick number) | +1 |
| Clean sheet — nothing conceded (a 0–0 pays both sides) | +1 |
| Goal rush — four or more goals in one match | +1 |
End of season
once, at the final whistle in May
| Champions | +20 |
| 2nd–4th | +10 |
| 5th–7th | +5 |
| Relegated | -8 |
Doubled if the club was a Round-2 pick in the draft era active at season end. The relegation penalty is never doubled — bad luck is bad enough.
FA Cup
stage points stack as rounds are decided
| Semi-final reached | +4 |
| Final reached | +8 |
| Winner | +15 |
Win it all and the stages add up: +27 total.
Carabao Cup
stage points stack as rounds are decided
| Semi-final reached | 0 — pride only |
| Final reached | +4 |
| Winner | +8 |
Win it all and the stages add up: +12 total.
Player events
anyone on your clubs, PL matches only — positions per the FPL feed
| Hat-trick (3+ goals in one match) | +2 |
| Goal by a defender or goalkeeper (each) | +1 |
| Penalty saved | +1 |
| Red card (incl. second yellow) | -1 |
| Golden Boot — top PL scorer plays for your club (May) | +10 |
| Playmaker — top PL assister plays for your club (May) | +5 |
| Dirtiest club — most yellow cards in the PL (May) | -5 |
A worked example
Say your Round-2 pick beats a Round-1 club 2–1 with a goal from a center-back, finishes 6th in May, and loses a Carabao final along the way. That Saturday alone: +3 for the win, +1 giant-killing, +1 for the defender goal. In May: finishing 6th is +5, doubled to +10 as a Round-2 pick, plus +4 for the cup run to the final. Late-round overachievers pay the bills here.
The fine print
- Tiebreakers, in order: combined goal difference of your owned clubs, then combined goals scored, then the later Round-1 pick wins.
- Re-drafts: ownership can change at a matchweek boundary. Points already earned stay with whoever earned them. Match points follow the owner at that matchweek; cup points follow the owner when the stage was decided; end-of-season bonuses, awards and the Round-2 doubling use the era active at GW38. Giant-killings compare pick numbers within the era the match was played in.
- A defender hat-trick earns the hat-trick bonus and a point per goal. He earned it.
- Your own two clubs meeting: if your later pick beats your earlier pick, that is a giant-killing and you do get the point. Celebrate quietly.
- Award ties split the points evenly. A tied player on an unowned club still consumes a share, and splits can go to decimals — a three-way tie is worth a third each, and the standings show one decimal place. Decimals count in full for the tiebreakers.
- January transfers: the Golden Boot and Playmaker go to whoever owns the club the player is registered to at season end — same as the FPL feed lists him. Goals scored in an old shirt still count toward his total.
- Abandoned or postponed matches score nothing until the rearranged fixture finishes — the whole season recomputes from raw results a few times a day, so late changes sort themselves out.
- Unowned clubs appear in the table but score for nobody. European competitions are not scored (config flag exists if we get ideas).
