    Gameweek 7

    My third against Iago's unbeaten until last week league leaders.

    Let's be having you!

    Took a 4 point hit and gambled with (C) choice. Think you're favourite here tbh

    Ulloa fo captain? You won't be the only one to pick him I'd guess.

    Might still work out

    Up 19-17 in a nail biting encounter, with vastly different teams for the second half; Costa Capt being the only denominator; but Game of Throw Ins may have the edge attack wise.
    Its an intresting one; but if you dont see me posting here until Saturday week then take it for granted I lost.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,262 ✭✭✭iroced


    Right. I'm 28-19 up vs Busts.

    My Costa (C) - Fab - ADM - Ivan vs your Costa (C) - Fab - ADM - Forster - Pellè.

    Basically need Southampton to have a stinker tomorrow :pac:. And if Ivanovic remembers he could score I'm not against it too :P.


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 23,229 Mod ✭✭✭✭GLaDOS


    Leading Irish Son 37-31, we have the exact same 4 attacking players playing tomorrow, with both our captains played today, so it comes down to my Clyne vs his Lloris. Hard to see him catching me, but stranger things have happened.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Leading nevercaptaincleverly by eight points but with Costa captain and ivanovich to come for him I think those eight points won't be enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Intruiging match with the high flying daithij. Trailing 23-18 but with an extra player. We both have Clyne but I also have Forster so a clean sheet for Saints, unlikely as that is, means a lot more to me.

    After that it's just Ivanovic v Chambers and crucially my captain Fab v his captain Costa.

    On a wing and a prayer, doubt I've much chance.

    Yep, it came down to the choice of captains and your Siggy beat my Aguero, I'm having a terrible start but if Costa blanks tomorrow I'll have had a good week I think.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,056 ✭✭✭Sooner or Later


    Currently leading Iago by 27 to 19 (23-4)

    Taking out our players in common it is his Terry and Costa against my Pelle and Costa (c)

    You have 2 more players than me to play. But it might well come down to captain choice if Forster and Pelle return 2 points each.

    Delicately poised in my game with CSF, both have 5 to play and I'm 5 ahead. I think it'll come down to my Hazard and Adebayor against Di Maria and Pelle.

    5 isn't much of a lead when we have 4 different players each, a clean sheet for Courtois or a goal from Di Maria would change it in an instant.
    Good luck anyway yeah right

    Lloris on course to get a bp which woukd level it up, making it 2 draws in a row for me :eek:

    Looks like he gets 2 now, defeat snatched form the jaws of victory :(

    I think I've won my clash with CSF unless Caulker does something really stupid.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    After being top after 2 gws Ive now had 5 defeats on the bounce. Congrats iroced.

    Really bad luck CSF, you beat me by one but your four point hit gives me the tie. If Courtois stayed on I assume Chelsea would have still had a clean sheet and you would have won that way also. The Gods were smiling on old Swiper this week.
    Apologies.

    Sterling doing marginally better than Silva and more importantly Chelsea CS associated with Southampton failure did it for me ;).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    I go away for most of a month and win three games on the trot but in typical fashion lose the week I come back.

    That said, I won the game that matters.....











    Yep, gave Swiper an awful thumping a few weeks back :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 311 ✭✭GillespieRoad


    A resounding comeback from 32-19 down to a 62-61 win gives me my first win in three games. Should be enough to send me back top of the table ahead of next week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Up against CSF in a game I need to win to keep clear of the relegation zone. However the basement side will be viewing this as a very good chance of 3 points themselves.

    40 points with Aguero's to be doubled and bonus to come for Pelle and Aguero. Moore to sub in with 1 also.

    Taylor, Siggy, Sterling and Di Maria left.

    Same players left + Wilson.

    37 here with Aguero pts to be doubled too and another 2 pts deficit in your favour since I don't own Pellè.

    Which means I need a Stoke CS or goal to win our game. Not impossible but can't really see it happening.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    I'm looking good in my tie with Donal, he'll have two extra players than me but I'll be defending a lead of close to 20 points after today. A win this week will put me on 15 points, right in the mix in this despite a terrible start to the overall game.

    I also have 1 to come in for Moore so will be 6 ahead. I can see a Stoke CS getting you the 6 and Wilson as a defender could easily get bonus if they do.

    That's right. But it's more likely that Chelsea conceding a late goal sealed your victory.

    Ah I'm pretty happy with my result today and unless Falcao runs riot on Monday (my other players being the template midfield it should not make a big difference) I should climb in the rankings when Aguero captaincy is effective which is the main thing but if Wilson wants to have a blinder I'll take the added bonus of a H2H win ;).

    Csf needs Wisdom to score about 7 goals v United. Leading 83-54 with him the only differential. ;)

    16pts. Excellent week so far, no complaints. :pac:

    Not looked at game in 2 weeks, came in Fri night blind drunk after a night on the gargle and a visit to the casino, made 1 of 2 free xfers (Baines) and left him on the bench :pac: , had fully intended to cap him too :pac:. Got messed up again today while going to Coventry city v Bristol city for the craic so only seeing scores now.

    In the game overall, this week is proving a season definer.

    Ironic i still got a decent chance v Gillespie Road with 20 pts coming off the bench in this H2H.

    After 5 defeats on the bounce I'm heading for a win this week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    It looks like I am leading by 95 to 81 against Donal. I'm finished for the week and he has DiMaria. I'm a hot favourite but can't count my chickens yet obviously.

    Well done Lemlin. As expected Ivanovic conceding it late made the difference.


    --- edit ---

    Wisdom first sub would have given me the draw. Ah well all these little details were to be in your favour this week ;).

    It's a nice win to get alright. 5 wins and 3 losses sounds alot better than 4 and 4.

    You pushed me to the wire.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,056 ✭✭✭Sooner or Later


    3 points behind Ronanh with Di. Maria to come for me. It's going to be close.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,588 ✭✭✭daithijjj


    Gillespie Road effectively on 52 with ADM and Wisdom left to play. I'm on effectively 46 with ADM (c) left.

    So i guess i need ADM to get an assist (plus bonus) minimum to have a hope this week.

    Edit ....Congrats Gillespie, your week was just that little bit less sh1te than mine :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Excellent, DiMaria going off with less than 14 ensures another victory for me. Bad luck Donal, you had a decent week as well


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,056 ✭✭✭Sooner or Later


    Di Maria delivers a very tight two point win.

    Looks like all four of the 5-2 teams are now 6-2 teams

    Yeah, congrats on the win! Your Newcastle defence was really what separated us, nicely played.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    I'm up against top of the table Sooner or Later next weekend. Our front seven is the same so it'll all come down to the goalkeeper and defenders.

    Gameweek 9 and I'm up against some dude called Lemlin.

    Anybody know if this guy is any good?

    Well you're the lad topping the league!

    Teams near identical. Match comes down to your Guzan and Clyne vs my Forster and Wisdom.

    28 points each so it all depends on how Guzan does tomorrow. As long as Villa avoid a pasting I should win. Mind you there is another possible variable which is if Costa does not play and our subs come into it, my Boyd v your Duff.

    9 points down vs Boots234 (can't remember seeing him around here).

    It's down to his Cissé (or Duff) vs my Chadli. And I hope this
