Fantasy Football League 2015-16

I spunked my BB in the first half of the season

Your blue balls? Wrong thread.

You can fuck off as well...I'm not happy atm.

Feels a bit weird only having one Saturday 3pm game that affects me.

At least I managed to save my bench boost for this week and I managed to line my team up nicely on the screen - I'm sure the awesome power of symmetry will see me pick up more than 100 points this week

 

[butchersapron]

It gets better - martial not starting so i'll probably have a single game weeker in in his place.

More likely he will get some game time over the two games?

 

[butchersapron]

He'l prob get 10 minutes at the end here and the team will be unchanged next week as they're going to win 5-0 today. So another 10 minutes.

 

[elbows]

Sounds like your week can only really get more positive though by starting from such a woeful zone!

I was going to stick a fiver on him for first scorer as well. I think i should steer clear of the betting today.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Not to worry, I've taken a massive gamble on Rashford, so he'll likely get crocked in the opening 15.

I guess it's a question of who Sod's Law is working against more

 

[Lord Camomile]

Two penalty saves and a clean sheet helps Gomez to 16 points with BPs likely to come

And of course my H2H opponent has him too

 

[big eejit]

Bottled transfer and did Lukaku to Martial instead of Rashford. Then accidentally left the armband on Martial. Making more errors than Roberto Martínez this season.

 

[elbows]

68 points from 6 players so far, I think this week is going to exceed my wildest expectations!

 

[Lord Camomile]

Bloody hell, normally 61-63 would be a final scoreline!

And normally I'd be delirious about 61 points off three players*, but there's a lot of football to play yet...



*not gonna lie, I'm still pretty happy with it!

 

[Lord Camomile]

Fell the wrong way on the Coutinho/Firmino conundrum

 

[butchersapron]

At least your liverpool doublers are playing - mine aren't and are replaced by palace defenders who are likely to run up negative scores across both games (arsenal and man utd). You couldn't make this week up.

Coutinho's not played minute 1 yet!

You do seem to be suffering to fortune this week though.

 

[poului]

I honestly don't think I could have failed this week any harder.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

at a certain striker getting sent off an imminent ban

at leaving Gomes on the bench

at Tottenham's performance

but i hope some of them do better in the midweek matches...

 

[butchersapron]

After all that, only 14 behind after the first tranche. Still have basically 3 players vs 12 to make it up. But I'm not dead.

 

[elbows]

Call the fire brigade, 156 points with three arsenal players left!

 

[elbows]

Nobody put the fire out, 181 + any bonuses (e.g. Sanchez).

And there I was making jokes about symmetry and being somewhat concerned that the fantasy football might take the edge off my birthday last Saturday. Instead my luck started that day and never ran out. Wibble, and thanks for putting up with my elated messages.

 

[starfish]

I think selling Aguero a couple of weeks back was not my best decision this season. Cost me dearly in the H2H. Just bought him back.

 

[big eejit]

I'm chasing down the top 2 in the h2h like a lion chasing a gnu.

 

[butchersapron]

No such beast.

I'm def not shitting it.

110%

I've slumped to 10th

Disgrace, get off the stage, bring in warnock etc

 

[Lord Camomile]

Had enough players to exploit the double GW but also put out a full team on this reduced week, except three players whose teams are playing this weekend are unlikely to get a sniff of grass themselves

4 point hit is is...

 

[elbows]

De Bruyne only starting on the bench in the game today - bit too expensive to be putting up with that so maybe this is the player I can flog next week to free up loads of cash.

Being rested for Europe, no doubt. Same story with me and Coutinho.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Four points clear in my H2H match and we have exactly the same players left to play. BUT, I've got a four point penalty coming for an extra transfer

All depends on the BPs for the Leicester players, but if I draw this then it's likely all square at the top!
