3rd out of 8 in this. Ended up with 3 captains and they all scored. Rooney on sat switched my captain to sturridge for sunday and then transferred sturridge out for costa which automatically made costa my captain monday. Arfield scoring last night was a nice bonus aswell.

Three captains you say, didn't realise you could do three.

Oh well early days yet and keeping a tight grip on my transfers for the run in this year.:pac:

I'm blind, where is the mini league table?? Can't see it anywhere

L.S.F · 21-08-2014 5:20pm

nevermind, found it, joint last :P

Third with no players in MNF.
Happy enough to have closed the gap a bit.
Might dip into the transfer market as Robbie Brady has not featured yet this season and have a few players in mind.

Could you in theory next week, have let's say Rooney as captain on Saturday morning, transfer him out for a player playing at 3pm and then have the captaincy transfer still in hand?

Not very many is the answer to that:pac::pac::pac: just the 18 F/T left (first time playing the Sky game, i'll forgive myself the madness

)

656th position overall

team going forward:

Fabianski
Ivan Hutton Bertrand
Fabregas Lallana Mane Siggy Di Maria
Costa Welbeck

Very little chatter in this forum for the SS version.
If not in here, where do sky's ports FF fans go?

L.S.F · 24-10-2014 6:14pm

Think I'm gonna knock the sky sports one on the head. I'm not on the computer much over the weekend to do transfers and captain changes to maximise points so losing a lot of points and interest dwindling in it. I'll pop in and out of it tho to do my team now and again. Can someone link up our mini league, can never find it when I log on!
Have the FPL and mirror ones to look for, also do FiT on he phone and like the sky one I usually miss out on transfers each week

JokerD · 24-10-2014 10:20pm

Costa doubt is a nightmare. I've currently Sterling as captain transferring from the QPR game. If I keep it on him I can transfer to Costa on Sunday, then it will automatically be on him next week at home on Saturday which means I can switch to Aguero for next Sunday.

Other option is Aguero captain tomorrow and then captain next Sunday.

Top option gives me possibly 4 captains but with a big injury concern.
Bottom option gives me Sergio for two weeks.

What ye think?

I would've been identical to yourself but I switched from Aguero to Sterling after Saturday so I could have him on the Sunday.

I switched captaincy to Di Maria last gameweek for his game against WBA. It's now not letting me change from him. It just keeps popping up with a message saying: "ALERT - You can only make one captain change per week." Any ideas what I can do or am I stuck with ADM captain for the gameweek?

I think you can change at 00.01am. Next Gameweek starts on Saturday.

You should be able to make a switch I think. Unless they are classing Monday as this week? If you transfer adm out that will give you another captain.

Just checked it there I actually switched from aguero to siggy last sunday:mad:. So I have siggy tomorrow and will switch to costa or fab for sunday.

2nd Row Donkey · 24-10-2014 10:56pm

Have similar conundrum with Augero.

have him as captain since last weekend so I will leave him be for tomorrow's game.

Should be able to switch to costa on Sunday ... but if he doesn't play it's been a completely missed opportunity to put points on someone else Sunday/Mon

Sets you up for the next week though as you will have costa at home to qpr on the sat with a captaincy switch to aguero for the sunday.

Unless you use a transfer for a Chelsea player that should start.

2nd Row Donkey · 24-10-2014 11:11pm

Yeah... Just as long as Costa starts at qpr. which he should.

The only other option would be to buy Lukaku on Sunday and make him captain for this Sunday and next sat at home to Swansea then switch back to Augero next Sunday

2nd Row Donkey · 24-10-2014 11:15pm

speaking of transfers ...

I've used 11 of 40 and have 29 left.

I'm trying to stick to one transfer per game week roughly but wouldn't mind if I could bank a few more than that for the run in next March, April, May

Ive used 14 26 left its the hardest part of the game trying to hold onto them. This is my 3rd season playing and Ive always ran out of transfers in March.

Scorpion Sting · 24-10-2014 11:28pm

I have only 25 left. Think I'll save for the next 2 weeks as I don't wanna be in the situation where I only have 8 transfers left come the 1st January.

2nd Row Donkey · 25-10-2014 7:48pm

Well Gents.

Captain Augero didn't do a whole lot today. I'll be switching captaincy to Costa tomorrow but as almost everyone else in my private league is doing the same, it wont make any difference.

If Costa doesn't play I'll be gutted as a couple of my rivals bought Sakho or Beirinho in last week and have reaped the rewards since.

JokerD · 03-12-2014 6:50pm

I had Rooney locked in as captain last night from the previous game v Stoke. When I heard he was out last night, I transferred in Bony who automatically became captain. I thought this would still allow a captain change but I logged in there and can't change it.
