    Some score for roryc this week 91 pts


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    91. God. I wish I had 91. That's a serious score for this week alright!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,683 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    61 points, can't complain. Van Persie outscored Suarez, as expected:D
    I will never ever put it again on United player, too much stress.
    My main rival in work league scored 25 this week, and now i am only 2 points behind him. Should fly through after next week.
    Still far behind most of you - up to 475k...
    Surprised that my score was rank 599k:eek: 13 points over an average is usually placed a little higher than this.

    60 (-4) for the week

    All green arrows for the last 4 weeks but have still only managed to jump from 315K to 240K this is desperate! Making barely any progress :( I see lads here jumping from 300K+ into the top 100/50K in around the same time!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    Steady ascent continues - up to 55k after this round.

    Thinking of banking the transfer in midweek.

    Very similar story here!
    Jumped 38k places this week and I think that's been my biggest jump despite 5 greens out of 7. The red weeks were tiny drops.

    Have went from 400k to 224k over that period but just can't seem to get that biggie. Thought today was going to be the one with Mata, Ade and RVP (c). A goal feast would have seen me make that jump.

    Will keep plugging away with my slow and steady gains (from my team of differentials... No Suarez, Hazard or Yaya... High risk with slow steady returns... Just not fair :) )


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    76 points with Suarez as captain.

    Have gone from 280k-268k-185k-118k in the past three game weeks.

    That's nearly 200K in the same amount of time! I haven't even manages to make it 100K yet! I'd be pushing for the top 100K if i'd been on your run ha!

    75 this week leaves me just inside the top 30k ...... delighted with that considering I had both Sagna and Giroud. Captaining Hazard turned out well, especially since I was torn between him and Lallana :eek:

    Yeah. For 1 week.

    I expect him to try to get banned every week from now on. :D

    The 180k jump was over the 7 weeks I had been talking about.
    I've had a similar 4 weeks as you. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    8 green arrows in a row now. 320k to 38k since xmas day. Most of my squad is away this week though.


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


    43 points and I'm 126k. That week I spent at 97k is one I'll cherish as I have made a royal mess of this season so far. What on earth have I been doing without Hazard. It's not like I even have anything against him like Yaya or Ramsey. I had a good few months at the end of last year and I thought I was better at this game than I am. This season is lost for achieving anything like inside the top 10k so I may as well try and have a bit of fun with the thing. Although not going totally doolally either!

    The points hits could come back into fashion and the devil may care attitude will be amplified though. Good God but I've been far too arrogant this season, if I get it out of my system by season's end and learn from my mistakes then maybe next season will go better.

    For now I'll just try and get inside the top 100k again and push for 50k maybe. I'll review things after the madness between GW28 and GW32. I'm not giving up but I think reality has set in and perhaps I'll be all the better for it.

    Where were you and what did they do to you Mr. P? :)

    Mysteriously taken away with no contact with the outside world for the day... Have you joined a FF cult?

    Think I could do with a reprogramming if they're still taking members? ;)

    Spent the day with family and no access to the internetz or outside world probably explains a lot :pac:

    So coming home to find out United only drew in the way they did has left me in shock too. I'm sure order will be restored in the morning don't worry. I'm still MadAboutMickeyTurner after all :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    Oh God, if we're helping people with their fantasy football addiction, then please send me help too. It legit is an addiction. I wish I could just quit because I feel like I'm about to nosedive for some reason.

    Red arrows, lots of red arrows!


    Damn you Hazard!

    i've done yaya and erikson out (money reasons), for hazard and nolan in.

    yaya isn't playing in that gw anyway so i'll bring him back for the double one,

    also with Suarez and RVP up front i should be raking in the points but both are letting me down lately and taking up huge money :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,700 ✭✭✭Danger781


    Green arrows in every single one of my leagues this week. I clearly did much better than I expected! :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,254 ✭✭✭Steven81


    These are the points you would need to move up in rankings

    Ranked Points
    1 1740
    100 1655
    1k 1615
    10k 1563
    25k 1536
    50k 1513
    100k 1485-1486
    200k 1451

    62 points could have been 75 if sterling was not left on my bench. Januz u cost be 13 points...would have moved significantly up in my pvt leagues. Now januz will cost be 4 points to transfer out for bellamy.

    Some score for roryc this week 91 pts

    Yep, 91 points. One of those weeks where everything went right. Amazed more people didn't give the armband to Hazard, always expected him to do well against a Newcastle side that are falling apart at the back. Hindsight is great etc... Got a stroke of luck with RVP only bagging one goal, and obviously a hat-trick for Hazard was unexpected. Only bad point of the week was my rival also captained him! A 4 point hit to get Zabaleta in worked out nice, as did benching both Arsenal defenders. I was so sure they would fail I even stuck them as 2nd and 3rd sub! Will be getting rid of Sagna this week - he's been great but Arsenals upcoming fixtures are a nightmare. Mert might get the boot in the near future too.

    Moved up to top 6k after the weekend. Have my sights readjusted for a top 1k finish now, only 40 points away... I've been inside the 3 digit club at one stage or another during the last two seasons only to blow up towards the end and slip back. Last year not having RVP when he scored a hat-trick (and everyone and his dog had him captained) almost cost me a top 10k finish. Won't be making that mistake again! These double gameweeks will sort the men from the boys. Yaya getting away with a suspension is another stroke of luck, long may this continue.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Invincible


    Yaya Toure escapes any disciplinary action from FA relating to his kick during Norwich game, so no ban coming his way.
    Different rules for different players!

    Your stroke of luck was Liverpool scoring 5 and Suarez only getting an assist. Was very close to a goal himself. I'd say with hindsight if you knew in advance that Liverpool would score 5 and Chelsea 3, you may not have captained him!

    Very nice score though, push on and get that top 1K!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,323 ✭✭✭Max_Charger


    I wouldn't even call it a kick lads. Van Wolfswinkel a shoe in for next years oscars.

    He more than likely has Suarez and doesn't have RVP.
    Given RVPs high captaincy rate, he would have suffered more if both had scored (the same amount of) additional points.
