My FH team is currently on 69 points with 8 to play.

Will be lucky if I can stay within 50-60 points of some of the weekly scores in some leagues.

I’ll be dropping like a stone.

I was leading the Boards €50 Euro league and was 4th in the JD FPL and the Bohs FPL before this GW.

I wouldn’t have entered the competition had I known they would change the rules during the season and I’d be handicapped by 50-60 points as an absolute minimum. Could yet be even more.

Just have to get the head down now and hopefully get a bit of luck over the next few weeks to climb back up in some of those league. Unlikely though.

I’m beginning to wonder if they have also locked prices for the season too and “forgotten” to tell us

Just looked at the team I would of had without all those unlimited transfers:

Patricio/Baldock/PVA/KDB/Ings/Jimenez

Of those I only kept KDB and i suppose Lundstram covers Baldock to a degree!

But Ings/Jimmy out for Aubameyang and Aguero looks costly

Similar sentiments, the FH brigade have been duly punished.

It seems the FH brigade are the one’s who used the WC earlier in the season (which I done).

I wanted to keep my squad & didn’t want to proceed with the team set up for this GW.

A lot now will WC and reset going forward, where as we’ll have 1 transfer. Bitter pill to swallow but hopefully a Sterling hat trick Monday night can ease the pain

I am not even going to do the maths tbh
Once it became clear a lot were going to BB I used it an excuse to get and captain Kun one last time . There is no point arguing otherwise

My team before the unlimited transfers would have been:
Henderson Pope
TAA Van Dijk Lascelles Baldock Taylor
Salah Fernandes Perez Barnes Hayden
Jimenez Auba Vardy

I only had free hit left so I would have used it for this week instead of using unlimited transfers as I would be happy with that squad for Gameweek 31+. So far I have gained 19 points from using the bench boost I was able to use with the unlimited transfers, with one sub to play.

And Robinson starts again
Damn it !

If Henderson and Egan get another cleanie (and Fernandez) then I am defo not doing the maths on how my old team would have done

People called this beforehand.

The free transfers for all was a 'dumb it down for everyone' move. People who had set up decently pre-virus had to go with the odds and protect themselves against a DGW massacre.

And many got the best chip strategy of all time in their laps - take a free shot at a DGW BB and wildcard to set up for the rest of the season.

I say this as someone who has slightly benefited from the 'transfers for all' I think.

Difficult game to call, id say either 1-0 to sheff utd or 1-1. Both teams dont score that many at all

Fleck starting means I wont get Jimmi's points from the bench. Really need him to get something after his no show the last day.

Newcastle are being pinned back
Good start by the blades


Completely forgot I have Stevens and do not have Henderson !!!!!
Stevens goal or assist and then conceding is prob best outcome for me
Along with a Lundstram appearance and a goal

Shanotheslayer

Half chance for Robinson

Could do with an attacking return from Stevens/Egan today

Match is on Sky One

Newcastle have livened up
First save for Henderson

km79

Looking through leagues and yes I definitely want my sheff united defender to concede!

Joelinton straight through
Terrible finish
Another soft save
It was going wide actually
Awful finish

Scorpion Sting

Joelinton fluffs his lines when clean through on goal.

The potential points swing in going for Leno over Henderson is sickening me

Henderson got the second save

That's ridiculous really. Looking at the shot again, it was clearly going wide.

This has nil all written all over it

I assume it will be removed

So long as Henderson doesn't get yet another double digit haul from it I would take that.

Ref acting the tool tbh. Nothing happened in the game, could easily have just told the two of them to cop on.

Baldock playing really well, hope some bonus potential

Just the minimum being offered by Saint-Maximin so far.

Saint minimum
