    Just spotted pulisic didn’t even come on
    Which means I would have got soyuncu off the bench with zero
    So the hit only cost me -1 after all
    And I now have ricky for a nice home game next week

    Turns out it is fewest goals conceded for while team
    So
    Because Vardy conceded 3 and he had 3 non playing players who obviously conceded none he goes through
    Daft

    Daft

    That's a daft rule. It should discount any non playing players.

    Went on the booze Sat evening and it all went downhill very fast. 34 points... but I made it through the Cup, somehow. Came up against a 30 pointer.

    Down to 19k OR.

    Never checked my OR
    Amazed and delighted to only drop 6k to 23k
    I had been dreading this week and basically needed all of son KDB Rashford and to a lesser extent kane and alli (who I own ) to blank
    Went my way in the end

    Still a little nervous having 4 in the Liverpool game this week coming but I will try and bank so I can get KDB back in after that for free

    Daft

    So you're penalised for actually having a full playing squad. Ridiculous.

    58 points, rise of 47k to 71k.

    Lost in the cup by 5 points. Going into the last game I needed 6 from Alli and Son, was thinking a clean sheet would do it...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,864 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    34 points see me fall back to nearly 700k. Rashford and Abraham have been disaster bus the last few weeks, really should have held onto Jimmi. Will give Rashford one more week, said I wouldn't get any more Utd players after Martial awhile ago and should have stuck with it.


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


    66 and a rise to 350k .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,335 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    53 points and up to a season-high ranking of 158k.

    I dunno about penalised. It counts the full team for goals scored so it would be weird to do something different for goals conceded.

    Yes you’d be at a disadvantage in that very specific scenario, but that scenario only comes after you’ve already picked up huge advantages due to having more players.

    Yeah I thought about it after and I had 3 extra players (due to being an active team......) so 3 extra chances to score goals
    However
    It is daft that I have been knocked out because Jamie Vardy "conceded" 3 goals.
    I assumed wrongly it would only be defenders and midfielders that would count as they are the only one who get clean sheet points for not conceding.........if they are going with this then Abraham didnt concede a goal so I should have gotten a clean sheet bonus for him and therefore would have won:D

    Anyway it's only a bit of craic but that was silly to me

    Yeah, in the end it’s all a bit arbitrary ultimately. Thankfully these cups are all but meaningless unless you’re the 1 in multi million (however many it is this year)

    4,194,304 teams are in it to be precise.

    So went into the Spurs game one point ahead in the cup with my son plus Gazz playing v his no one.

    Ended up going out on goals scored. Can only laugh

    Must be nice to have had your son playing though
