Mr. Incognito

lol at the bonus points from tonights game

Bramble - 3
Cattermole - 2
Rooney - 1

wtf? None for Vidic, Rooney gets one despite only playing for 6 mins???????

That is simply a ****ing joke. How does 6 minutes deserve the bonus points and the two best players on the losing team???

Ludicrious!!!

We need to email these muppets

JPA

LOL! OK, so I didn't see the game but Rooney played 7 minutes and gets a bonus.
He must have been amazing.

He scored, no one else did that for the rest of the game

66 points is a solid return. Up to 205 in the Boards league now.

Ronny earned himself a stay of execution seeing as I'll need my transfer to get rid of Evra.

Heisenberg.

One Cold Hand

Lol just checked this for the first time in weeks. Made my last transfer in week 9. I'm 54th in boards league, winning all my other private leagues and head to head, and through to 4th round of Cup! This game is easy!

61pts this week, and if I'd changed Vidic to captain instead of Lampard I'd have had over 80! Doh!

OPENROAD

53 points and out of the cup have yet to use my wildcard but think I'm going to use it and make some changes, Ronaldo to probably go.

Mr.Nice Guy

I forgot about automatic subs. I finished on 72 overall. One of my best weeks but I've dropped down a few places nonetheless. :pac:

I think the next gameweek will be tricky, particularly trying to work out how this Merseyside derby will wind up. I could do without Everton getting hammered.

bohsman

Hmm, Arteta and Greening(sub) or Ireland and Geovanni(sub)

FutureGuy

93 points for the week which was pleasing. Bonus points were, once again, rediculous.

I wonder...if the organizers of the game said "Sorry about the bonus points, but we are undermanned. If you paid 20 euro to play for the season, we could hire people to take care of it", would you pay it?

Ireland is suspended for this gameweek

thewools

Starting the like the look of me team this week... :D:D

Turnbull (Shouldn't concede vs West Brom)

Vidic, Bosingwa, Djourou, Paintsil

A.Young, Lampard, Ronaldo, Arteta

Cole + Zaki

Bench: Schwarzer, King, Edgar, Ireland (Suspended)

Scored 68points this week but down to 57th in the Boards league?

Sherifu

60 points which isn't great, my subs for the Fulham players didn't really score too well.

KevIRL

84 points and through to round 4 of the cup

Yea true but looking at Evertons fixture list think Ill stick to Ireland/Geovanni for the next 3 weeks anyway.

Team for this week

VDS

Boswinga Vidic Laursen Lescott Hangeland

A Young Ronaldo(c) Geovanni

Agbonlahor C Cole

joe123

82 this week.

Up to 150 in boards and topping nearly all my private leagues now. Finally beginning to string decent scores together after a disasterous start to the season.

CantGetNoSleep

Anyone starting to make room for Kaka yet?

Would he be valued at 100 million?

Rikand

forgot to switch my captaincy. Put me out of the cup and gave me only 57 for the week.

I'm quite upset

Iago

103 points and I was so far adrift in most of my leagues that I only moved 1-2 places if at all

the season starts here

The Gambler 101

after picking up a few injuries last week and trying to figure out what to do.
team is:

VDS(c)

a cole - figueroa - l young

ronaldo - j cole(injured) - wright phillips(injured) - valencia

zaki - van persie - owen

subs: painstil - mccann - mcshane -

thinking of buyin in o'shea but dont know who to sell and would need to sacrifice 4 points!

any ideas?

How is everybody set for the weekend?

Sherifu

I need to bring in a cheap defender I think.

Earthhorse

Brought in Laursen for the injured Evra. This is my third time buying Laursen this season!

Sherifu

I have Knight, thinking about getting in Luke Young instead as I doubt Knight will get a game.

Earthhorse

At a cost of only .1m to you I think the return is worth it.

Well, I might as well have the selling hattrick too.

Wait a minute...we can thank your posts again. When did that happen? Or did I just imagine that we couldn't? Who am I? What's the meaning of this?

Silver-Tiger

Bouma back soon for Villa, he will be fighting with l.young for a start, It will see young loose his cast iron selection as a first teamer

SantryRed

Ronaldo gone. Gerrard and Arteta in for him and Wright Phillips.

Young will be right back and Bouma LB proabaly. But Bouma won't be back for a long time yet.

I was gonna thank the ascii Picard facepalm you posted in AH. So old school.

Brought in Young anyway, thanks for the advice guys.

Is Evans worth buying?

Words were not enough for that story.

Mr.Nice Guy

Has anyone else got subs guaranteed not to feature? Only my goalkeeper could come in. I have Bullard, Ireland and Zayatte all out. This could be a grim week for me.

Frisbee

Just seen Deco is out with a calf injury, I've Ireland on the bench and already made my sub.
Gonna have to take a hit..

Racing Flat

Wondering about replacing Bosingwa with Vidic. Belleti getting a bit more game time, I wonder if Scholari is losing patience with Bosingwa...added to Chelsea's recent habit of conceding...But maybe the wrong week to do it with them at home to Stoke and my Cup opponent has Bosingwa also, maybe better we cancel each other out...Thoughts?

Heisenberg.

I'd say he'll get them, Nasri with the 2, then either Ade or Bendtner with the 1, better be Ade...

Mr. Incognito

Mid twenties with Reina Carra and Lescott to play.

Rubbish. Ronnie does sfa again and Laursen, the fcuking cripple deoesn't play.

My cup opponent has Van persie so I'm surely out barring a hat trick from lescott and carra tomorrow.

Giovanni has really gone downhill since november and zaki missed an open goal today.

drastic surgery may be needed.

Frisbee

Adebayor got the bonus of 2, result

Kev_ps3

Chelseas defence is giving me very poor results recently. Might have to re-think Cech and Bosingwa.

Mr.Nice Guy

Awesome day for me. Keeping the captaincy on Van Persie worked out an absolute treat. 53 points altogether with two players still to come. Way exceeded my expectations for the week.

Frisbee

32 points with Green, Baines, Belhadj, Arteta and Alonso left to play

token56

brought in RVP who gets 3 assits and Evans for Evra, who gets a clean sheet and a 3 point bonus, amazing
leaves me with 54 with 3 to play, and 2 points on the bench

OPENROAD

44 Points, had Ronaldo as captain, thats it for him,going to get rid of him now.

Still 3 players to play.
