51-35 with the bonus

Swiper the fox · 27-09-2014 5:54pm

'm looking very good in my tie with Zarquon but clean sheets for Stoke and Burnley would change things very quickly, something here from Adebayor would further improve my position.

CSF · 27-09-2014 5:59pm

Sweating Welbeck here. Has the potential to ruin my lovely scalp of a wildcarding GillespieRoad. Sanchez being benched killed some serious momentum today.

daithijjj · 27-09-2014 7:31pm

Rooney fked me this week in the head to head. Simple as that really :pac:

27-09-2014 9:26pm

6 points in it against the Journeymen, I've Heaton and Wilson still to play. Could be close.

Swiper the fox · 27-09-2014 10:03pm

Looks like the two 100% records are gonna go also. Iago to lose his first game and ronan.h to win his first. This league will be very close.

It's going to be very close, a clean sheet from either of them and you have it

iroced · 27-09-2014 10:10pm

36-36 in my game with Dempsey. It's my Krul + Wisdom + Pieters vs his Bardsley. Should have the edge but I'd certainly not count my chickens before they're hatched.

CSF · 27-09-2014 10:16pm

I've picked up a win that I'm very happy with, we both have the same player left to play.

Looks like I'm upto 18th, hopefully I can get out of the bottom 3 next week.

Iused2likebusts · 27-09-2014 10:19pm

I'm 11 pts up with all my players played. Wisdom and Begovic to go for never captain cleverly. Would be unlucky to lose this one.

Chambers 1 pointer will be vital I'm sure. Duff for a hat trick!!

Jeju · 28-09-2014 6:19pm

I think my Erzgebirge Scrooge can relax ahead of tomorrows game, 47 - 41 ahead with my Col for Newcastle to play tomorrow.
The headlines of the day belong to the opposite ends of the table, The Bottlers have lost for the first time this season and elsewhere GillespieRoad will be kicking themselves for not taking advantage as they look to be soundly beaten by 19th placed Los Pollos Hermanos, meanwhile Leads the Way have also their first points in the bag.
Where do I go from here.
First and foremost Rooney is gone, for good.
There is no place in the modern game for that kind of tackel, and with kids looking up to him week in week out, I have to opt for a safer option elsewhere.
If this was an interview the question might be "Is that not a bit harsh?" and my reply would have to be
"Although John Terry was FF gold at the time he was messing around missus Bridge, there was, me being a family man, but no option to drop him, and not just for that season, but every season.
It may have cost me a good finish as things just spiraled downwards from there but I stand by my morals".

I'm going to lose this one . Begovic clean sheet and I'm done

Nothing from Heaton, so down to whether Wilson can pick up points.

Swiper the fox · 28-09-2014 6:42pm

After a terrible start I will be on 9 points unless Pieters can amass 17 points tomorrow. That'll only be three points off second place:P

I have no research done but I'd say you wouldn't even need a 70% win rate to win this league, what is the normal % of victories to win a competitive H2H?

And a 35% win rate at least to stay up

iroced · 28-09-2014 7:05pm

6 pts ahead of the unbeaten leader. Just need Pieters to annihilate Bardsley and Krul not to get negative points (but hopefully he'll get loads).

Good old Wisdom teeth played his part anyway, you're still favorite but relying on Newcastle is never a good thing.

You have some great overall rankings over the years was glad to see you took an 8 pt hit this week aswell. It's 50 50 at this stage for the 3 pts.

Yea I play a more riskier game than most round here. I usually take a lot of hits in the first couple months to try and build up a strong team value so I'm always a slow starter. I'm lucky to have a few wins in this league but expecting to push on now.

GLaDOS · 28-09-2014 9:17pm

Myself and dathijjj look set to play out the first draw of the league. We're both deadlocked on 44 with no players left to play. I needed Duff to score even a single point to clinch victory

CSF · 28-09-2014 10:18pm

A victory against last years points winner (it was him right?) on his wildcard week. Wins don't come much bigger than that!!! Thank you Bertrand/3 other players keeping a clean sheet

Second week running where I have lost due to an unfavorable tie- although this week its not as bad. I'm desperate to get back to winning ways soon!

I was sure you had me, was on hols and saw nothing since Saturday. Head to head can be a bit of a lottery, its not my focus, nor never has been but it keeps things interesting week to week.

It was me, dont take these tiny tiny victories away from me :pac:

Passed Gillespie Road in the final week. I had a blistering run from January.

Unfortunately yes.

For those interested it's 48 - 35 to Lemlin

Lemlin has Krul left

Rory has Pieters and Wilson left, with PVA to come off the bench if Pieters does not play

Managed to lose it. Sums up how things have been going for me.

Confirmed now! Snatched it at the end. Hard luck boots

Beat the leader this week :cool:. I'm up against busts next. If I were you I'd take another 8 pointer :pac:.

Sooner or Later · 30-09-2014 10:05am

Up to third now, very happy with that. Four wins out of six and my two defeats were narrow ones.

Next week it's a clash with league leaders The Bottlers

By my count Krul's points would have been the difference for Lemlin.

Are the guys banned at the minute? Don't be getting permabanned lads I need you for this next year (unless of course I'm in a relegation place and you're higher than I am;))!!!

Maybe they just had to play their match behind closed doors to avoid any trouble and they'll be back posting next week :cool:

30-09-2014 10:49pm

Lads, any chance someone could post up the complete table so far? Trying to do a little comparison between the prem, champo and leagues 1 and 2. Cheers.

Sooner or Later · 01-10-2014 1:58pm

I was actually thinking of opening a thread on the same topic.

Very curious to see relative strengths of leagues.

Boards ids back on page 1

01-10-2014 2:22pm

Nice one, sooner or later. Sorry to be a pain in the hoop, but can somebody post an actual link to the league? I'll set up a thread then with comparison between the 4 leagues. Cheers.

Edit: Nice one CSF.

I'm playing you this week Mr CSF. You've already taken a four point hit and it's still only Wednesday, I can probably find out what you did by trawling the other threads but do you fancy just telling me?:p I don't see any need to take a hit myself this week but will see properly on Friday or Saturday morning. They're all big games but a win for me will push me up towards the leaders while a win for you will allow you a chance of mid table comfort for the first time, 'twill be a far shout from when we were rooted to the bottom only a few weeks ago.

I've gone City heavy, Kun and Silva in

Thanks for half following my "advice"

.

Looks like it'll mainly be your Silva vs my Sterling...

Elsewhere I'd say that your Van Anholt-Moore-Pellè should match my Wilson-Ivanovic-Ulloa. And your 4 pts hit is covered by my Krul vs your Forster :P

...

Good luck anyway and I hope you have a monstrous week scoring 100+ pts and narrowly beating me by 1 pt :P.
