    Lads I'm after realising that not having Michu at any stage this season may have been my real downfall :pac:


    Stupid rule with a mate not having the same players in our team, beat him by 300 points too. It has been scrapped and will never be seen again! :eek:

    Edit: Although to be fair I came to that conclusion in about week 3 :(

    ha!

    just saw that if I'd either captained Bale, or Walcott could shoot straight, I'd have won the Boards League.

    fractions.

    2108

    i was 164,857 after GW 32 so just wanted to see what you ended up on to get that finish

    you: 2108 = 58,655
    me: 2067 = 101,783

    not the most points i ever got but highest finish

    i'll try to take it more serious next season & get much higher

    I'll be honest those 6 weeks were some of the most effort I've put into the game in 3 years of playing it. I made plenty of really good decisions and took 11 points hits which somehow gave me a quite positive balance. Very aggressive playing which could have backfired but wouldn't have moved so far without it.

    I believe if I had kept Mirallas over Lukaku for GW36 and therefore GW37 or just kept faith with Lukaku this week I'd have risen another 10,000 but that was just unfortunate. I was at 11K last year though.

    it was probably mentioned here at the time during the match but didn't realise coutinho had a perfectly good goal disallowed, thank fcuk it'll be the last legitimate premier league goal to not be given due to a lack of goal line technology.

    those 6 points would have been nice for my team, assuming he got the extra bp too but thankfully they wouldn't have made a difference to me in cash prizes.

    ps. liverpool look to have unearthed a gem in him!

    Definitely one to watch next season. I didn't realise Norwich had signed Ricky van Wolfswinkel.

    He'll be another one to watch. With the creative players they have he should be deadly next year.

    He's worth signing on cool name basis alone

    Ye coutinho is a class player, I flagged coutinho on here months ago and kept getting sidetracked by dgw players. The one lesson Ive learned this year is to not get caught up with dgw players. My two big mistakes this year were not getting in coutinho and picking szesney over DDG in the jan wildcard because Szesney had a DGW.

    And 4 point hits are bad. Very very bad. Sturridge I'm looking at you :(

    That was my GW1 team. Was actually fairly spot on with the vast majority of players in hindsight! RVP came in GW2!

    Think of the guy who will finish second in the overall game by 3 points and had Lukaku on the bench as 1st sub....

    He also would have won if Walcott had scored that chance. That is so unlucky. I found his twitter too, very disappointed there was no Hulk smash rage.

    Yeah had a little gander and he seems pretty sound.

    *notices that there's only 44 people being followed and FutureGuy must be one of those and comes to the only rational conclusion*

    I always suspected that you were Lord Alan Sugar, yesterday must have been tough to take :pac:

    He's even talking about not playing next year. I don't think I could if I was that close to winning the thing, he probably will never have a better chance to win it.

    Change to one of west broms assist, now been given to Morrison also results in a change to the bonus pts, tables are being recalculated now, hope it doesn't affect anyones prizes in private leagues!!

    Fellani has had his yellow card removed . Extra point for me moved up about 30 places .

    The point changes today dropped me 99 places overall to just inside the 22,200 mark. Thankfully it didn't affect my league but I'm certain that some were affected. Imagine if you lost a league two days later thanks to a Fellaini/Morrison 1-2.

    How long this masquerade is gonna last ?

    Can they give 2 extra goals and of course the associated 3 BP to Hernandez ? It'll suit me just fine... :rolleyes:
