    You struggling to make the arranged draft time ?

    No 1030pm on August 8th suits me. I think I'll probably just take too long deciding my picks so I'll probably end up with a couple of autopicks :-)

    There is some amount of defenders that you can pick, like onto my 5th choice and you still have Zabaleta, Dann, Cedric

    Still missing two lads from the league, all 8 paid up

    You're making lists ?

    Maybe I was wrong to think I could wing it.

    Can you send me the league details please. I don't think you sent them to me yet.

    Lads, I left a message on the FPL Draft messageboard about the draft date. I'm in a bit of difficutly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,346 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    I'm easy on a new date,


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Probably easier to arrange a new date on this thread rather than the message board.

    Postpone it by 24 hours if that suits ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,432 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    I'll be on a flight on the wednesday
    Saturday or Sunday evening this week suits me?

    I'm can't do Sunday evening/night - I'm going to a gig.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,173 ✭✭✭Dearg81


    Thursday week seems to be the only other remaining option. I'm available from 1030pm any day so I'm easy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,346 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    I've a wedding Saturday and Sunday, Monday - Thursday suits me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,432 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Monday evening?
    I'll be on holidays on the Thursday

    mectavba said he's not available on the Monday or Tuesday on his post on the draft chat. Looks like we are running low on options?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,173 ✭✭✭Dearg81


    If there is no day that suits everyone I think we should leave it as it and do it on Tuesday as originally planned. Apologies mectavba but there doesnt seem to be any other day that's good for everyone.

    What about this Friday?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 855 ✭✭✭mectavba


    Ye no worries if there is no other time that suits...that was the original one we agreed to. 

    I would be available Friday though if that suited?


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    This Friday is not good for me.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    From what ive read it looks like if you have filled out your watch list you'll get your picks in the order you want.

    So if you spend a bit of time on that I don't think you'll be disappointed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,432 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    So we're sticking with Tuesday?

    Yeah looks that way. I could have done Sunday through to Thursday but not before that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,346 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    So how is the draft order decided? Are gonna talk over WhatsApp during?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,432 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red

    Draft is decided automatically

    Happy to whatsapp through it, mainly for the thrash talk!

    Isn't there a chat facility within the draft itself ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08

    yes


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,173 ✭✭✭Dearg81

    Yea no need for whatsapp with that chat facility. The whole thing is pretty automated so don't think there will be much confusion.

    I see from the original thread re draft league that they are setting up groups a,b,c etc with the intention of having a tiered league system just like the boards premier league, championship and so on.

    Will we submit this group as group d or e (or whatever they are up to) so we can also take part in that tiered system from next season ?

    Does this make sense ?

    Sanchez
    Mahrez
    Mane

    I dunno what I was thinking picking Mahrez! Squeeky bum time for me for the next few weeks with Sanchez too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,432 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    KDB lasted a long time, I thought he might make it to me

    Klopp I think yours the team I like best, Trimm I'm not sure I like and Tilted has a serious attack

    Sanchez and Mane in the same team could be 500 points if Sanchez stays in the league.

    I assumed winner takes all cause it's a small league and smallish pot.

    I had suggested way back €300/€100

    But I'm happy to go with the majority, doubt I'll be troubling that end of the table unless my waivers go legendary

    I like the frontline of Mectavba the best if Nacho is fit and plays.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,432 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red

    I don't like his midfield, thought Zaha was picked waaaaaayyyyy too early

    Happy to go with the majority vote re winner takes all or 300/100.

    I'll vote for WTA.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Can't believe I didn't get a scouser considering there was 4 on my shortlist.

    Firmino was the last one picked, I think, in the pick just before me so I got Defoe
