    I'm in too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,101 ✭✭✭MitchKoobski


    I did my usual. Bought 4 players feeling really proud of myself, realised I had about 60.5 points left for the rest of the team, promptly felt stupid and sulked while I picked the 4.5 players for the rest of the team....

    Still in though. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    I'm confident this year,

    Usually it's all over by December but thus year will be different, it's quality how Bale has been chosen by 40% of teams.

    Yeah I think everyone is mad for doing that. He was down as a defender last season and priced low but he's 6.5m this season and a midfielder. I konw 6.5 isn't huge but he's priced according to last season's scoring like. Ah well, he might prove me wrong.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    He was best player on the pitch today but his score last year is very deciptive cause of being classed as a defender.

    My point exactly. Fantasy football isn't about how good a player is at all, it's about how good he and his team are at the things that get points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    A solid 9th so far.

    Somewhat scarily I'm coming exactly in the middle of the 4 leagues i'm in. The definition of average.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 222 ✭✭mecco


    Threw my hat in too today..see if i cant beat ziedth and get beaten by lassykk in 2 leagues ;-)

    now back to my lurking of boards :-)

    25 in so far, should make for some good banter throughout the season.

    Looks like none of the ladies want to take us on though...it's a right men's club at the moment!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 185 ✭✭WhodahWoodah


    Guys you now officially have one lady in the league! I'd hate to speak too soon and end up with egg on my face but hopefully I'll hand ye all yer arses at the end of the season!! Go on the girls!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 185 ✭✭WhodahWoodah


    Actually I suggest since this is a Waterford thing, why don't we all meet up to watch some of the main matches and get the competitive spirit going vocally and full blast!?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,788 ✭✭✭Benimar

    Welcome to the league! Given the level of knowledge on Boards (lads using Wildcards already:eek:), I'd say you might be favourite to win!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 185 ✭✭WhodahWoodah


    Lol Benimar. Major girlie question-what does using a wildcard mean? I thought we were all supposed to choose the team we thought would be best given the budget we had! Wildcard sounds like a cop out to me!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,229 ✭✭✭Dan133269


    ditto. nice one Stado :)

    the award for best name must be "multiple scoregasms" whoever that is :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 185 ✭✭WhodahWoodah


    Thank you, thank you...now we'll have to see if Multiple Scoregasms are real or just a man-myth!!

    Did you happen to play for them in the tag rugby or is the name just a coincidence?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 744 ✭✭✭angry_fox


    just joined


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 185 ✭✭WhodahWoodah


    Lol I've never even watched tag rugby to be honest. Just heard:o the name a few years ago and liked it.


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


    Only saw this today.

    Joined.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 222 ✭✭mecco


    One of todays additions is going to take over at the top, so I'm glad they were late in joining :D It allows me to say I started well!!

    Now everybody please stand back while i slide into oblivion over the next 37 gameweeks :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 755 ✭✭✭natnifnolnacs


    I've joined up there now as well


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 767 ✭✭✭Odats


    Well game week two this week had to make 3 changes this week as 2 players got sent off last week and Defoe is injured so 8 points down already for this week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,101 ✭✭✭MitchKoobski


    Sacrificed 4 points to get rid of Carr. Horrible decision in the first place, dumbass scored an own goal and lost me 2 points.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    I had Carr too, madness when you think luke young is only .5m more expensive.

    I did a major overhaul today, I expect this to be the new dawn for Séa stole my cat FC


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 767 ✭✭✭Odats


    Could be worse you could have had Joe Cole and Koschelny and both get sent off.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 744 ✭✭✭angry_fox


    good result from carroll this week, villa were shocking


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,101 ✭✭✭MitchKoobski


    Im still waiting for some good news....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 209 ✭✭rebelmomma

    I'm relying on Dirk Kuyt to save my week. Stranger things have happened I guess....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    Ah yes,

    He was a one man army for me a couple of years ago. I said I'd go with Ireland ahead of him, for all the good that did.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 222 ✭✭mecco


    Had Ireland too...thought he might make an impact on his debut..didn't quite work out the way I envisaged..

    Getting steadily worse! I can't find a keeper or defender to keep me a clean sheet! Drogs has baled me out of trouble so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,723 ✭✭✭bazual
