    Have we had any all FSA ties that we know about yet?

    What are the odds? We're a tiny community in the game.
    I'm a banker to go through to next week anyway, Clyne will have to score about 8 goals tonight to knock me out, delighted to be still in it, hopefully I'll hold off F1ngers as well and stay in the local cup.

    Over the 2 years the odds have probably dropped a tiny bit especially considering the high standard on here.

    Still high enough for me to be asking the question expecting a 'no' reply though.

    6 wins behind me now in this, are many others still involved after this week? Anyone go out? We seem to be doing well.

    Into the final 32,768 now. This is where it gets competitive. Captain choice could be critical. Everyone should be on RVP next week. But already scare mongering talk of him being rested on some of the ff sites.

    Close one!

    I'm through as well, won by 40 odd points.

    Think i've been relatively luck with opponents thus far, should change now we've separated the wheat from the chaff.

    Through 85-62. Still not caring a whole lot about it. Will take a point hit anytime I think its a good long term move, regardless of how it affects my cup tie.


  • Registered Users Posts: 36,199 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    my biggest victory so far.

    90-39.

    good grief, if you've been paying any attention at all, how do you get only 39 this week?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,094 ✭✭✭SpaceCowb0y


    93 - 51


    Still in by a hair:pac:

    I expect my luck to run out by next week...

  • Registered Users Posts: 6,746 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Fixtures are up, I've got someone from Ireland, female as well. A real transfer lover, 49 so far for the season but she has her wildcard activated at the moment, balls to that because her team value is a good bit above mine. My recent scores have been much higher than hers so I hope she doesn't concentrate too much on next weeks matches with her wildcard.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,085 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    My match is pretty much Ba v Bale. C'mon Demba.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,094 ✭✭✭SpaceCowb0y


    My next opponent could be the end of me while he is ranked 700,000th odd and im close to 100,000th his form in the last few weeks has been good, constantly over 60 in the last 5 weeks so will be interesting to see how it goes! He has a weird selection of players, far from the norm on here anyway but despite this has done well!


  • Registered Users Posts: 262 ✭✭narfsnonsense


    Still in and my next opponent has 3 arsenal, 3 west ham players and had used his wildcard, so I barring an absolute disaster, Im feeling good about this week too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,339 ✭✭✭El Horseboxo


    I'm facing another opponent that has their wildcard active this week. 2nd week in a row. Hopefully he's a big bollix and hasn't a clue what he's doing with it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    Luckily enough my next opponent hasn't activated his wildcard yet.

    As it stands he has

    Begovic
    Shawcross- o brien- Rafael
    Routledge- Mata - fellaini- michu
    Ba-RVP- Suarez



    Meanwhile I have

    Begovic
    Davies- coloccini-Shawcross- O brien

    Michu-Mata-Walcott-fellaini

    Rvp- Suarez

    Playing 4 defenders on a wildcard week when Man United, Chelsea, Tottenham and City all have preferable fixtures seems a bit silly. I'd also consider taking Suarez out for a spell unless you're really value committed to him.

    it's going to be close this week.

    after Aguero did nothing for me, he has the advantage IMO. i've 13 with 7 to play, while he has 10 with 8.

    we've the same midfield, but he has Ba and Berbatov to play, while i have Sturridge.

    in defence, we both have Sagna, while he has Demel and I have Cole.

    i've a feeling it'll all be on Ba and Berba's performances.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,236 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Going to be a close one. Opponent has Shawcross, Michu and Mignolet for 17 but he took a hit so it's really 13.

    I lead 21-13

    So it's my...

    Demel, Bale, Walcott, Ba, Sturridge

    VS his...

    Evra, Ivanovic, Sterling, Pineaar, Lukaku, Suarez.

    We both have Mata and RVP (c)

    I'd say its 60/40 in his favour right now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 672 ✭✭✭RIALTO1


    In big trouble this week.

    To try and win the monthly prize with The Panel, I gambled on 3 x Stoke defense last night. Was going to play my wildcard but had an exam last night so between that and studying I didn't have the time to look at it.

    So I have 15pts with 5 to play: RVP (c), Suarez, Mata, Walcott, Wilshere
    He has 9pts with 8 to play: RVP (c), Mata, Walcott, Ba, Lukaku, Nolan, Sterling & Mertesacker

    So unless Suarez goes mental tonight I think my race is run...


  • Registered Users Posts: 921 ✭✭✭Shaque attack


    What chance do you guys reckon I have? All square last night with the following different players to go;

    Me - Jussi, Martin, Bale, Pienaar, Kacanaklic, Mata
    Him - Noble, Cazorla, Walcott, Rafael, gibbs, Azpilicuto

    Once aresnal dont go to town on liverpool I reckon I've a good chance


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,876 ✭✭✭Easy Rod


    39-39 after tonight. He might take it with bonus points but if not how is the winner decided?

    I'm in the same boat, 48-48.

    Think it goes to goals conceded.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,085 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    I'm out. **** you Rafa.

    First it goes to goals scored, if tied then it goes to conceded, if tied then it's a coin toss.

    Just checked, goals scored first then goals conceded.

    But is that goals scored by your players team while they're on the pitch or goals scored by your players?
