won this week to stay 3 pts clear at the top. 9 wins 3 losses so far.

Lemlin · 08-11-2015 10:06pm

Another win for the Commandos but unfortunately all of the teams above us also won.

iroced · 09-11-2015 11:11am

3 defeats in a row and from fighting for the title, I'm now back into the relegation battle. Must remember now that the MAIN objective is to just stay in that league!

09-11-2015 2:34pm

In 16th now. Think I'm joint 3rd for points overall in the premier league too now.

Good game, on a good run now after a horrendous first 7 that caused me to temporarily abandon ship. Won 4 of the last 5 so slowly working my way back up the table

Swiper the fox · 21-11-2015 9:13pm

Win over Zarquon thanks in the main to the referee giving Watford that penno, his double united defence would have been the difference.
Will there be any casualties at the top of the league??

Sooner or Later · 21-11-2015 9:33pm

Disastrous week, only 27(-4) with only Souare and Kane (c) left.

Getting absolutely hammered .

Lemlin · 21-11-2015 10:04pm

I should beat Skippy. I'm on 52 with Kane and Souare to go. He's on 53(-4) with Alder to go.

Wait now for Alder's 15 pointer!

CSF · 21-11-2015 10:14pm

I'm 6 ahead with Alli vs Kane (c) and Ward. If Kane blanks I think I'll be ok. Unfortunately that is way too big of an if with the form he is in.

Iused2likebusts · 21-11-2015 10:56pm

I lead Donal 53 41 both of us have Kane (c) to go. He also has mccarthy or more than likely Myhill to come in.

Swiper the fox · 21-11-2015 11:02pm

All the top 5 look like winning I think, we might get a little breakaway going, I was hoping to make a bit of progress but it's great to keep winning and staying in the hunt even when I'm not going that well overall.

Yep, another week another loss. Congrats!

4th defeat in a row now

... Relegation battle here I come :rolleyes: :pac:...

Like Lukaku did a couple of weeks ago for Swiper, it looks like a great Sunday performance could turn a game on me.

It's not over yet! Alder should get at least 14 if things stay as are.

thunderdog · 24-11-2015 8:49am

I'm very much over achieving in the league-based on points I should be in 19th position, but currently sitting in 6th

Yeah, I'm in 17 but would move to third if based on points.

FHFC · 24-11-2015 9:37am

Another win and up to 7th.

Your just being very unlucky with the fixtures. This week you had the 3rd highest score and would have beaten anyone else in the league bar me and fhfc.

Swiper the fox · 24-11-2015 2:50pm

In some ways it's what makes this league so interesting, you'll meet a good opponent every single week so you need quite a bit of luck on top of a good score every week. I remember commenting on a player who was number 1 in the world towards the end of last season who wasn't top of his H2H league.

29-11-2015 6:57pm

3 points taken from los pollos hermanos, should help things along

Good man Dónal, he was above me before that.

The top 3 after today will be busts, Lemlin and myself, pleased with that:)

iroced · 29-11-2015 7:25pm

Another expected defeat with my -8. If Agüero is OK maybe just maybe it won't be a terrible triple move I'd just made...

Busts five points ahead since the week he beat me and he's really holding onto that gap.

I had a huge lead last year at one stage after winning thirteen in a row or something but I had a losing streak late on despite posting good scores every week and was pipped at the post, busts luck will change;)

GLaDOS · 29-11-2015 8:06pm

Badly, badly needed win this week.

Think you're taking three points off me this week thanks to your hero KDB!

Pretty sure I wasn't playing you this week, I had journeymen, he also had Kdb ighalo was my real hero

Didn't look at it properly as on mobile and in North on roaming.

It's actually skippy15...

Was bottom of league so needed the win more

Forgotten what it feels lke

Lemlin · 30-11-2015 8:05am

The league is very tight again tbh. I'm on 28 points in second but people in the relegation zone are on 15, only 13 points behind.

My aim is to get as many points between myself and the relegation zone as I can. I won't forget last season easily where I was flying high until January and then only had two or three wins in the second half of the season.

I ended up in a relegation dogfight before eventually pulling clear to finish in mid table obscurity.

30-11-2015 8:18am

Up to 15th in the league, second overall on points. Very tight in the bottom half.

Swiper the fox · 04-12-2015 10:34pm

With no other cup or champions league matches this week I'm looking forward to my clash with the unluckiest man in the league, Donal. A win and a Lemlin loss will put me into second, sorry Donal but I hope your bad luck continues:P

You set your aspirations low old man if second place is your target

Where I went to school you could never go past 33 by adding 3 to 27 but you Cavan men are very good with figures I've heard;)

Anyway onwards and upwards, I've made good progress in this league in recent weeks.

Sooner or Later · 05-12-2015 10:13pm

Back from holidays to find I had two consecutive defeats and got knocked out of the League Cup. Hope to have turned the tide against KevIrl this week though unless Lukaku goes mad.

Iused2likebusts · 05-12-2015 10:52pm

beaten by Tom K this week. Will give some false hope to the chasing pack;)

Lemlin · 05-12-2015 11:05pm

I lead The Bottlers 46-36. I have Nyom to sub in so its 52-36 effectively. We both have captain Lukaku to go so he needs 17 from Moreno.

If they were playing anyone but Newcastle I wouldn't be still worried!

iroced · 06-12-2015 3:37am

Looks like a 6th defeat in a row in this league... Can't stop my highway to hell... I have a very bad feeling about this season

lol

Everything I touch in the last 1.5 seasons turns to crap.

I'll have to change my team name. it started out as mildly ironic when I used to be good at this game, now it's just sad!

Watch Newcastle win 2-0 today with a Moreno own goal before he gets sent off before half-time.

Swiper the fox · 06-12-2015 11:52am

Very interesting game with Donal.
He is three points behind but has picked a non playing goalie and lest Myhill on the bench so it's basically a 1 point lead. I have Lukaku (C) left and he has Lukaku and Barkley. I think I need Lukaku to equal Barkleys score to win.

Yeah, could go either way there!

I predict a draw but I wouldn't settle for it if you gave me the choice, I'll be hoping for a palace goal big time to lose you that point.

FHFC · 06-12-2015 1:45pm

Congratulations to whoever was playing me...

I was closer with this than I've been in picking a fantasy team all season

Sooner or Later · 06-12-2015 10:07pm

My 54 plus Barkley v KevIrl 36(-4) plus Bolasie and Lukaku

Should be enough

That's another loss for me! Congrats

GLaDOS · 08-12-2015 2:44pm

Up to 13th! Ridiculously tight down the bottom though, 4 points between 20th and 12th.

Swiper the fox · 08-12-2015 4:30pm

Any chance somebody could crunch the numbers on which leagues have the highest average etc, last year it was amazing in that the leagues went exactly to form with a scarily similar difference between all of them, I suspect the premier isn't as strong overall as last year as I have the 4th highest score and I'm below 90k in rank.
