Should we lay a wreath?

I think we should all spare a thought for poor Mr Prodston. The forum's cult hero has been cast aside.

Saw a Twitter rumour saying Ravel Morrison will be rested today.

I can't see why he would be. West Ham hardly suffer from fixture congestion.

Twitter correct for once

Ahem, well in fairness, John Ruddy IS the forum cult hero, anyone who remembers the epic price rise saga of 2 years ago will atest to that. Turner did take the torch though, but now maybe his flame has gone out??? Hmmm that begs the question, who will the torch pass to now?

Navas... Has to be Danger781 and Navas.

Hey Mr. P, I've watered your grave

BNMC

Pantilimon
Ivanovic Vlaar Coleman
Ozil Ramsey Yaya Brady
Aguero(c) Suarez Remy

Only 5 players playing today, hoping for about 30 points from these as tomorrows is when the big hitters play.

Good news so far with Barkley and Morrison being benched.

L.A.D

My Arsenal spine of Mertesacker-Ozil-Giroud to do the business today 0-3

Mickey Turner has been dropped I think!!!! :eek:

Oh and if anyone wants me I'll be in the crawl space. I've got to arrange an EGM for the Mickey Turner Appreciation Society, I have no idea how I'll break the news to them :eek:

BNMC

Wes Hoolahan in the Norwich team today, his first Premier League start since the opening day of the season.

Balls no Baines

You're kidding right. Baines injury news was all over the media the last week. He is out for another few weeks too.

The Y2K bug didn't prove to be much either

My cousin who's ahead of me in my cash league has Barkley captained. Oh dear.

You should feel bad about this also.

IvySlayer

Actually wait I transferred Baines out earlier for Jagielka MUHAHAHAHAHA

Cantona's Collars

One of my main private leagues gave me a boost,all my rivals bar the guy leading never looked at their teams this week for some reason,some have Baines,Enrique and Sturridge in their teams and subs which will either score 1 point or not play at all.

Mr.Prodston

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrgh

I'll try and remain positive for the next 2 hours but I'm in a double glazed glass case of emotion. Norwich could well be dead to me by this time next week!

I'm not sure if being rested for the Liverpool is better than being dropped, over to you Howson. No pressure.

Ravel out too :mad:

*and breathe*

I've only two playing today. Coleman and Sess. Never bought Ramsey and sold Ozil this week. Good God, Ozil going to get a brace today. I can feel it in my bones.

You considering dropping him in Jan WC?

IvySlayer

Jagielka, Lukaku, Giroud and Gabbidon playing for me :P

Barkley not though :mad:

To put on my logical cap for a second I've kinda been expecting it come but was hoping that today wasn't going to be the day. I guess we'll just see what happens over the next few weeks. Bennett is a very reckless player too and who knows how Bassong is really doing.

zarquon

Wilshere hits the post, would have been a ramsey assist

jamesbere

Redmond, distin and ramsey for me

DJKendo

Had Mickey Turner starting, so now hoping he doesn't come on and Palace keep a clean sheet as Dean Moxey is my first sub to come on for him!

zarquon

Mertesacker injury :O

KevIRL

Mertesacker concussed but will stay on I think

Mr.Prodston

Mert has a knock, injury to his face. Still on pitch but not sure which way it'll go

Scorpion Sting

Mert stays on.

BNMC

Well this is boring..

zarquon

Giroud is an absolute clown. What an idiot

Menas

Morrison and Barkley on the bench sucks a big one. I just hope they do not get a 3 minute cameo from 4.42.

He was a mile offside, fair play to him for stopping lol but wish he scored to get the ball rolling for me this week!

Did Ozil touch it though?

Ramsey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KevIRL

Trent Johnston hits 62 off 32 in his last limited over innings for Ireland. Super stuff

212-6 with 10 balls left

Scorpion Sting

Ramsey goal.

No flag though, he called his own offside! Wenger was furious with him

Edit: Ramsey goal, Ozil offside. Perfect

KevIRL

Sigh, Ozil assist at least

I've seen the replays and im certain he did.

Oh for **** sake. This game, my god this ******** game

Ramsey you absolute *bleep*. I'll be bringing a bottle of whiskey just for myself this week!!!

F### Ramsey. Is there no let up? I'm going to have to bite the bullet and but him. Maybe.

And an Ozil assist. Sure, why not. Last week it was Oscar and Lukaku. This week it's Ozil.

Cantona's Collars

Ramsey's goal rush will end I says,it'll never last I says,sure as soon as I get him he'll stop scoring,that thought process worked out well for me:o

Ah well,at least I've Ozil.

KevIRL

Vlaar got a yellow

Menas

A lot of people sold Ozil last week. He went down in price twice.
I wonder will this assist reignite his season.....I hope it does.

I hope so as I'll be keeping him for another few GWs most likely, a few other fires to put out before I get around to him.
