cold grey and misarable in kirkby as usual but a nice suprise to be top of the fantasy league just about!
but i think mr monkey is one smart guy and will be making some changes to make his team the favorites again.
also i think bob is to modest about his chances and could challenge yet,also brian has had a good week or two.
irish allan,i can only think 747man is picking your team!

The FF site has Delap amber flagged but the BBC doesn't even mention him as injured. I think he is constantly carrying a shoulder injury. Think I'll do my usual close the stable door after horse has bolted policy and bring in 8-point (last week) Corluka for Delap.

Wow Woodgate, Martins, Nasri and Malouda all have VD? You'd think they'd know better eh! [-X [-X [-X

Didn't see Irish Alan's post before had same thought. Phew. Had me worried for a moment. I thought sexually transmitted diseases were suddenly rampant in the Premier League. No wonder they're unable to run. :D

AND he got an auto sub on Monday in the name of Bullard with 10 points in exchange for a Blackburn player..could be the highest scorer this week.

Done my usual trick ..... sub keeper gets more than the guy who plays, and Sub 1 (still to play), Sub 2 6pts, Sub 3 8pts.

Now if there was a prize for "most points by the bench during the season" I'd be streets ahead ](*,)

Just noticed that the lass that's leading this week (79pts) has now moved up to 1,602,133rd place (out of 1,797,161).

As Greavsie used to say "It's a funny old game"

stattointhailand wrote:Having watched the way that David Moyes has been setting up the Everton team (with their lack of strikers), he has been playing his three attacking midfielders further up the park, and Arteta has been "hanging back" for most of the game. With this in mind I've ditched him from my team and brought in a more attacking minded midfielder from a team that has three or four relativly "easy" fixtures between now and the new year.
I can see it now ........... Arteta scores with a 40 yd "screamer", sets up another, and then scores from the spot, gaining 3 bonus points ........ 18 pts down the drain :cry:

Remember if you have Man U or Wigan players in your squad, you may wan't to get rid of one this week, as you don't want to "PAY" for transfers next week :-k


Well you can't say I didn't warn you Zidane :fryingpan:
It's a dangerous game having players that have no chance of playing, sitting on the bench, as it doesn't allow any Auto Substitutions for "late injuries" or "fell out with the manager" syndrome to those in your team.

Just a quick heads up, NOW is the time to start to bring in Man U & Fulham players ....... there are three transfer windows available before both teams play twice in week 21 :yikes:

Yes,a bit of a tactical disaster this weekend :oops:
I should have replaced either Ronaldo or Ferdinand but took a chance by replacing Richards who had been scoring low points all season.
What happens......Marney,an ever present doesnt play...Bent was sick,Sidibe was injured and Reo-Coker only featured for 30 minutes ! :(
But all is not lost.....tonight Everton v Chelsea.
Arteta man of the match.
Cech clean sheet and saves two penalties.
Anelka scores a hat trick.

Now that is Fantasy for you ! :D
