I have a similar scenario (Bertrand instead of Toby) and am playing Bertrand and one of the Leicester lads.
Newcastle scored twice last week against a solid Swansea side.

I'll take the €500 in the pay league and you can have the FSA premier league. The €20 topaz voucher is nice, but much less appealing than €500

Currently placed to win €470 in various leagues which adds nicely to the €150 approximately i have in monthly and the FSA league cup prizes so far. Would be nice to win the main prize in one of my leagues which is an all expenses paid trip to a game of my choice next season but the gap may be beyond me at this stage.

The Premier League match.....that wouldn't be the Púcán league would it...?
Púcán in Galway are giving a prize like that. Think they are giving tickets for 2 people to a PL match but I'm not sure if it includes flights etc.
I'm long out of the running in any case for that prize

Went with Schlupp in the end

Just seen that the PL starts on August 8th next year. Early start because of Euro 2016.

Wonder does that mean the players and values will be out a bit earlier.

Hits for some reason seem to work better for me at this stage of the season. I've take -4 this week and -8 last week and am around 27 points better off after the points deductions are taken into account.

I took a last ditch -12 around this time last season with similar success.

If you look at stephenl15s quarter positions I think kevthegaff must be well inside the top 100 and I wouldn't be surprised if their real name was Simon. Those numbers just seem impossible.

jimmii

Hmmmm if you go to quarter 3 there was no team that came 201st so something is up there!

Up and down all season. Not sure if it is a good thing that it is almost over...

spock.

I'd say kevthegaff is talking about his overall rank at the end of each quarter.
Otherwise, he must be at least top 10 in the world!

Very good consistency. No quarter outside 100k, your OR must be pretty decent.

Busts is similarly solid, nothing over 150k I think.

My quarter 3 was spectacularly bad, only mr p was worse from those posted above I think. Not having Kane for his purple patch (BUIB Ugggh), and not really having Giroud or Silva did me in badly. I'm happy I've been able to recover from it at all.

Incidentally it's interesting that with that 600k q3 rank I only fell about 4,000 places from inside 1k to just outside 5k. Dropped further in GW31 before the recovery started. Shows the value of a good start.
