    Nice. Was thinking you'd be high seeing as we started on the same points and I held onto 609 after a shît week.

    Well done, back,on your tail hopefully!

    Dropped from 1.6k to 3.4k. I'll take my medicine and move on. I got used to bad weeks last year but they hurt a hell of a lot more now that I'm in such a great position. Always somewhat arrogantly thought I could convert my opportunities well when I got in position but bad choices everywhere I turned.

    I'll be fighting for every point the next few weeks and all it takes is a good week to get right back up there. Forgot how bloody frustrating this game can be :)

    Great stuff, Ziegler.

    All the more impressive considering you have two GW ranks of over 2M.

    Thanks and fair play on 16k! My best, by far, was 33k until now. This is just the second time I've ever hit triple figures.

    Is 90 a new record on boards? I remember GillespieRoad doing really well last season, did he get to top 100?
    I said it before, and others did, too that we - as a forum -have a really good run. Sky is the limit this year guys. Let's go for it.

    Yeah, last year was my first year playing and posting here, and the rankings of many regular posters are crazy high. There must be what, 4 or 5 in the top 1,000 currently?

    Down to 46k. A great GW (80 pts) which finishes very bitterly. Sunday and most importantly Monday results didn't suit me at all but did suit many players. Zab and/or Terry helped many to rescue a captain fail.

    Dropped 12k tonight because of no Chelsea back cover and no Fab. Up 50k overall though so delighted with it :).

    But Siggy and Hazard potential injuries, Costa **** form and expected rotation and my slowness to get Terry in make me consider an 8 pts hit (Wilson -> Terry, Siggy -> ?, Costa -> Bony/Giroud?). To add insult to injury Sigurdsson's dropping tonight (can't believe how fast he's plummeting :eek: - people have no patience :mad:). Don't want to knee-jerk it though so will have to swallow the £0.1m loss :(.

    More like 10:eek: Could be wrong. Plenty of top 5-10k posters. I hope that those who didn't make the top 10k (yet) won't get tired of reading our posts:o

    Up 40 places in to OR! A green arrow is a green arrow!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,409 ✭✭✭basillarkin


    My first red arrow since gw9. Down to 7k overall. Had 59 this week for no hits. Major blunder in capt bony who I thought was rotation proof.

    Pluses bringing in benteke who has some nice fixture coming up and zabalata at the back who in all honestly could have scored a brace last sat. I still expect himbto be rested at least once during the Xmas period.

    Coukdnt see tge game tonight with work but rumors of a hazard injury and another poor diaplay from costa. Roll on the madness of the next few gws.


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,249 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    72 sees me up to 7k. Slow and steady progress.

    Some fantastic GW ranks and overall ranks on here this year. It's great to see.


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,538 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    21k :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Delighted to wake up and see I'm up into the 800's overall. :D

    Green arrows all round except in one league. What might have been if I had captained Austin over Van Persie!

    After my well documented 4 weeks of sliding 2-300 places each week, I finally got a really good week and jumped from 1.7k to 522nd in the overall rankings!

    Am I right in saying there's 5 of us in the top 1000 atm? Ziegler, Me, Paully, FHFC and wonski? Is there more?


  • Registered Users Posts: 973 ✭✭✭internet_user


    94 sees me jump from 109k to 33k! Probably my best ever week:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,984 ✭✭✭G1032


    58
    Down to 18,000
    Taking a couple of days out (unless Hazard confirmed injured)


  • Registered Users Posts: 921 ✭✭✭Shaque attack


    Time to chime in and say I've been one of the lurkers on here this season. I'd contribute more if I could put coherent thoughts together.

    Anyway a sexy 69points puts me in to the top 15k which for me is my most consistent run I can remember. It'd have been a lot of red arrows if I hadn't listened to the captain Austin brigade.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,345 ✭✭✭Gits_bone


    I really have to stop taking hits. :( I take a -4 most weeks I'd say :/

    Fair play gents. Great to see so many so high and doing well.

    That said, and I don't like putting a dampener on things, the challenge now is to stay there. It's early days yet and it's tough to keep momentum going when you're already that high.


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


    67 pts brings me up another 300 places to 2k. Considering I captained eriksen Im very happy with that score. Really dissapointed I sold Fab when he was suspended said at the time it was a bad kneejerk move by myself. I had the fab haz terry combo which is the ideal chelsea 3 IMO.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,233 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Up to 7k with that 78. Making solid progress each week.

    Lokking for lots of rotation over the next week or so.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Down 4k to 48k after a decidedly average 57.

    From watching the game last night, it seems as if Hazard's injury is a cut to the leg at worse - I'd be confident of him being able to start the next games. Costa also could have had two goals if Begovic didn't do very well to close the angles. I'm sure he'll be getting a few goals over Christmas too.
