    Looks like the whole year inn still has to pick a mid 2

    Not sure what is happening with him. He should have been picking early yesterday afternoon, was online last night but still no pick.
    He has until friday I suppose. Picking the 40th best midfielder may take some thinking!

    Still some good picks left, I had a difficult job picking number 38

    I've sent Lucas Hood a PM and he seems to be online so hopefully the wait won't be too long. Someone can remind the whole year inn and we'll be game ball

    Ended up with:

    Forster
    ----Cahill---Vlaar
    Mirallas
    Coutinho
    Sturridge


    Not too confident about finishing too highly in the table based on that team!!

    Team updated for the next 2/3 weeks:

    Forster
    ----Cahill---Vlaar
    Mirallas
    Coutinho
    Sturridge

    Really not looking good now!

    Moving league tables to this thread, more apt!

    Copper Pipe and Spacecowb0y take the early lead in our FPL draft. Indeed all of the top three were aided by big scores from their Spanish contingents.

    Down at the bottom, Mr P is propping up the table, but could he be the Man United of this draft comp..or the QPR? Only time will tell.

    A total of 27 players (out of 120) scored 0 or -1 this week....that first transfer window seems a long way off!

    Dear Patrons,

    Copper pipe has once again topped our weekly scoring and himself and Roryc have opened up a bit of a slight lead on the chasing pack.
    Mr Prodson has hauled himself off the foot of the table to a respectable 13th. Dahat is currently propping the rest of us up.

    No fewer than 26 players came in with a 0 or less....special mention to Nuts 102 who got a -2 for Bony.
    The average weekly score this week was a mere 15 points....not sure what that tells us though!

    Manual man and PARlance will be hoping for better returns after a shocking 6 points apiece this week.

    Until next week folks!

    bad week but mangala started if i can get walcott back in a few weeks things will be looking up.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,254 ✭✭✭OneColdHand


    The average weekly score this week was a mere 15 points....not sure what that tells us though!

    A guy in my private league had 16 points from his whole team, so 15 points is probably not a terrible average!

    Hazard and Shurrle combined just as I'd hoped and my North London pair at the back grabbed 2 clean sheets. We're back baby. Positive signs that Eto'o started too and Rangel was 10 minutes from a cleanie. A much better effort than the paltry 5 I got last week anyway

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,318 ✭✭✭✭Menas


    Interim update! LucasHood has wiped the floor with us all this week so far. He got 33 points.
    But Copperpipe and Iusedtolikbusts have 24 points and joint second highest scorers.
    Copperpipe now has a 10 point lead at the top.
    $hifty is holding his own at the bottom!

    Speroni my unhung hero so far! But think I may have done good business with Lallana and Mane. Was impressed with both of them at the weekend expecting good things :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,318 ✭✭✭✭Menas


    Dear Patrons,
    Copper Pipe has opened up a 12 point gap on the rest of the field. But are there signs that his team is fading? He was outscored by Lucas Hood, Iused2likebusts and Bezuaua this week.
    Slingerz gets the Weekly wooden spoon with an impresively low 7 points. And Nuts 102 and One Cold Hand are the Burnley and Newcastle of our league. Suspensions and injuries and lack of form to blame for that. Alan Pardew would be proud of your excuses gents.
    The average score this week was just over 17 points. If you got less than that then be worried. No fewer than 25 of our players scored 0 or less. Special mention to Iusedtolikebusts who managed 31 points this week despite Mangala's -2 points.

    Dear Patrons,
    It looks like the points feed has been updated early this week....but if you notice any errors please advise!

    Copper Pipe's lead has been narrowed down to 11 points, could this be the chink of light the rest of us need? He was outscored this week by most of the chasing pack.
    $hifty gets the Weekly wooden spoon with a solid 8 points. He is now within a point of One Cold Hand who apparently has adapted a Paulo Di Canio style of managing his team.
    Spacecowboy on the otherhand is this weeks top scorer and has launched a title bid. Is he the man united or the man city of this league?
    The average score this week was the same as last week, just over 17 points. If you got less than that then be worried. No fewer than 27 of our players scored 0 or less. The transfer window cant come fast enough.

    Shaw starts for utd then goes off injured. Benteke is nowhere to be seen, and ramsey's fall from grace has been well documented.

    I fear I may be propping up the table for quite some time.

    Not if my Vlaar-Coutinho-Mirallas-Sturridge cocktail of non-starters has anything to do with it!

    Benteke is back... I'm eyeing up your spot.
