    64 for the week, 2246 overall. nice little surprise 2 bp's for sagna.

    won €100, came close for €600, closed a 90 point gap from about 5 weeks ago down to 10 or so but not to be. after that poor guy in the europa league thread lost out on a 10 grand prize in the last minute i won't complain about my one, kinda glad i lost out by a few points rather than 1 or 2.

    57 for the week after bonus points.

    Sturridge (c) was a large downfall.

    Bale was the obvious choice :pac:

    Bale was the obvious choice :pac:

    Had Bale, Walcott & V. Persie and ended up choosing Sturridge.

    Probably my first week not having 1 of them 3 as captain, save for maybe a week w/ Mata as it.

    dreadful week 41 pts reckon I may slip out of top 5k .On paper had a class team going into the week but as usually happens in this game when u expect a big score u end up having a shocking week.

    43 pts, one under the average. That last moment captain change has cost me huge.

    :mad:

    1972 for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,267 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    2202. delighted with that. highest ever score. though doubt i'll beat my highest position 2 years back of 7k


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,743 ✭✭✭blatantrereg


    57 points. Bad idea to change captain from RVP to Walcott. Too late when I decided to switch to Bale. Also I had no goalkeeper playing. Nice to get 10 bonus points though.

    Bale was obvious as captain.

    but Walcott was just as good a pick IMO against a usually shít Newcastle.

    if he'd scored his sitter, there'd have been little between them.

    still a little peeved!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,938 ✭✭✭AdpRo


    The good: trying to decide all week what transfer to make, decided this morning to take a hit and do Santi and lukaka to michu and Sturridge, before hit confirm told myself don't be daft taking a hit, your 9 points clear in main money league, no point helping rivals so done Santi to couthino instead!!

    The bad: another last minute change of mind saw Maloney start in my team and lukaka start as first sub.

    The ugly: Clichy didn't play so Davies came on instead of first sub lukaka!!

    Can't complain much though, think I'll end up somewhere in the 600's and win my 2 money leagues putting me around €750 up, best season ever by a country mile.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Just looking at what team I had in GW1 and I've spent a good 5 minutes laughing. I remember I used the Wildcard in week 4 and was always planning on bringing in RVP or Rooney just waiting to see who'd play but yikes this was awful :pac:
    De Gea (Cerny)
    Lescott-Ivanovic [an exception]-Hangeland (Harte-Dawson)
    SWP-Pienaar-Guthrie-Valencia (McClean)
    Tevez-Jelavic-Torres

    Wow...it's no wonder I did so bad this year :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,476 ✭✭✭Invincible


    League not updated yet, on 2179pts, won one private league by 3 pts,Captain Bale to the rescue, 2nd in another by 6 points,considering he was about 60 pts ahead and I was 4th in that league up until 2 weeks ago, I'm happy enough. :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,340 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Overall league updated, finished in 6553 position, a big drop from last years 524th. But delighted considering I was in 32K position back in gameweek32.


  • Posts: 16,720 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Finished on the sexy number of 6969.

    Finished 2924th. Very happy with that. It'll be hard beat next season I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,657 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    finished 260th.

    fúcking Walcott's miss cost me my top 250 spot I was hoping for as I thought.

    it made my switch of captaincy from Bale very costly.

    thems the breaks in this game though.

    absolutely delighted with the season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,081 ✭✭✭GetWithIt


    59 for the week. A total of 2324 for the season. 549th for the season.

    A lot of what could have beens but happy with a consistently strong season.

    Making my wildcard at about 3 on the first Sunday of the season was the makings of it.

    Finished 1266 happy with that .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Finished 58,655 which is crap but considering I was 160,475 at the end of GW32 after those much fabled 8 absent GWs. I set a target of 70,000 6 weeks ago so I've got to be relatively pleased. I have my bigtime experience now for next season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    A disappointing 41k (after last year's debut 7k) but I won a league that mattered with today's bonuses. That's the moral victory I'll use to motivate myself next year.

    Bye all for another 2 months. It's been a pleasure!

    what score did you end up on?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,256 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Finished on 2225 at position 7822. Happy with that. Won my private leagues so am 1k better off.

    Mod edit: I asked ye not to mention this cup again. Deleted. Please stop.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,255 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Finished in 1955 in the world. Would have been happy with that at the start of the season but found myself in a position I had never been in...chasing a lead in a league that mattered. Was in top 1k for an age but buckled. Pretty much coasted my last 2 years but was chasing a 20-30 gap this year and focused too much on who other players had and not on my own.

    Lesson learned. Last 3 years, finished around 4k, 5k and 2k. Consistent.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 252 ✭✭Kinder Bueno


    Finished 45,177th. Happy with that considering this is only my second season playing the game and I finished outside the top million last year. The improvement is mainly down to the advice from the experts on here. So thank you folks.

    I really enjoy this forum, some very knowledgeable people on here and there is some good laughs to be had too. I'll miss it terribly, I won't know what to be doing on a Saturday now.

    Roll on August 17th... :D

    Michu is the only player that I had all season. Finished 6700 last year so the jump up to 203 is a massive improvement. Great standard in the boards league.

    Finished 1 place ahead of me! I was very close to bringing in Coutinho for Fellaini but decided to go for Sturridge instead. If I'd gone for Coutinho I might well have broken the top 200, or at least come very close, but I'm still delighted with this season.
