    Whoa, I'm finally after trying to sort out my team. Bleh, I don't have enough subs to sort out all the injuries...my defenders are also a fail. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 731 ✭✭✭seriousfizz


    Took a chance and set Hernandez as my cap'n. Oh how little chico has served me well - a sound 24 points from him alone! :D

    Sorry. Lately, I have been doing a lot more lurking than posting. If people want me to I will start posting the scores back up.

    Same. I'm not too bothered either way. It was just that I always abandon it around the same time each year.

    I used to be 2nd. What happened. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    Right, I am bumping this thread up ahead of the last weekend of the season to show where people stand and to see who is in contention for the Championship. As people can see next week will be interesting with Knife and KevinS battling it out for the title. Also there is an interesting battle taking place for the person to avoid last place with 4 battling it out not to be last. Those numbers that are in bold show close gaps in scoring.


    1 KevinS 1790

    2 KnifeWrench 1788

    3 Rebel Girl 1725
    4 Ironictoaster 1712
    5 Mushy 1653

    6 Insect Overlord 1594
    7 Flyswatter 1573
    8 Unknown13 1543
    9 Liam Refined Sinus 1539

    10 bluejaymarz 1500

    12 XxEmmaxX 1348
    13 Jackobyte 1344

    Ha. I stopped updating my team around last year.

    Not doing too shabbily.

    I was in the top 3 at the start of the year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,248 ✭✭✭Slow Show


    Once upon a time I was in second place...

    It's like I try to fail at this. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    After consideration I have decided to resign as the Administrator of the C&H fantasy football league at the end of the season. I will post up the results next week and congratulate the winner. Then I that will be the last of me conducting the fantasy league. I hope it stays on next year and I will more than happy to participate but the end of the day. I did a terrible job, I could have updated the standings weekly and I think it is time to hand over the reigns to someone who will do a better job than I did.

    Jaysus! I'm in 2nd! :eek:

    I haven't updated my team in months. :D

    Season has finished. Will post up the results after 10 because they have to be calculated by the site we are using for the league.

    CONGRATULATIONS TO KNIFEWRENCH, You are the 2010 / 2011, Boards.ie, Clearasil and Hormones forum fantasy football CHAMPION.

    Commiserations to KevinS, who came so close to winning the title.

    I would like to thank everyone who played throughout the year. We had a good strong interest in the league. Getting 15 to players in the league for a forum where that isn't sport specific was a nice achievement. The league was for fun and there wasn't a single time where anything got heated over the league, which was nice to see and also why I am not making a big deal over last place aswell.

    All good things have to come to an end and now the Premier League season is over we have crowned a worthy champion: KnifeWrench.

    The irony is I most certainly would not have won if I actually updated my team and tried to do well! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,625 ✭✭✭flyswatter


    You deserve it Knifey!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,115 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    I forgot about this after christmas, no idea how I did so good.

    LAST? I FINISHED LAST.

    FFS, even deise_girl beat me. *cries*


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,321 ✭✭✭Jackobyte


    LOL! I didn't finish last. I pretty sure I said I'd call that a victory when I started late. 60 point final week hall is pretty nice on my part as well.

    Ya, I'm satified.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,321 ✭✭✭Jackobyte


    *Bump*

    I just rejoined the league since I couldn't set up a team through the internet on my phone last week. Only a week behind this year. I think I was about 2 months behind last year. :o

    Actually, you wont be as the league doesn't start until week 2 because of problems. It appears though, this hasn't been applied to our league.


    Since the league hasn't been reset for us. I am using my admin powers to reset the league. The league will commence for us on Saturday. Sorry for any incovience being caused. Statement by the sites admins is below.

    *blows cobwebs and dust away from thread*

    I knew there was one of these threads somewhere down the back of the sofaforum.

    I'm going to continue doing it this year past October, I swear...


    No seriously!

    Anyway, my GW1 team:

    This is mine. The team itself was partially auto-completed but I'm quite happy with how it turned out. Not really much on the bench tbh.

    @WNolan, you could remove De Gea and get a cheaper GK, you'd have money left over then. You don't get any points for your subs I don't think.

    Both De Gea and Cech only cost £12.5m, which I thought was a bargain tbh.

    If I were to sell one of them it'd be Cech though, since I like to have a United GK in my teams. I only chose Cech cos he has 2 games this week.


    RVP and Aguero up front is a nice combination. I found strikers to be the hardest thing to buy this year. I spent all my money on Defenders and midfielders. Though I feel I made the right choice focusing on my midfield more than previous years.
