Must of had a few players in it (& a captain) I think the most points for a player last night was 6, followed by a few 5s...
(In saying that I will probably be happy to score 30 after tonight's games... :D :D :D )

Wow,70 points for last night ! I'm feeling pretty orgasmic today !! :D
Two weeks ago I dropped from 5th to 8th and had three other guys coming up fast....this has restored the status quo a little bit.
Downside was Rooney....came on only as a sub late on so only 1 point for him again :(
For once I managed to get more points than Galee,Ruthless Roy and Beer Monkey who I see is now in second place.Well done,Shaun.

First thing this morning when I saw Ronaldo had scored two and even Luke Young had scored I tried to get into the Fantasy League website only to be told they were updating the statistics and to try later.
Felt quite disappointed......this Fantasy League kind of gets to you doesnt it ! 8)
Just when I thought our chance had passed,you go and save the best for last.

I'm dropping like a stone... :( Should have kept my original team. Had an apparition that SWP would score so made him captain instead of Gerrard. Does he score? No! Gerrard does.

My defence managed to concede 14 goals between them. Dear Mr. McWhirter is this a record? :( :( :(

For the first time this season I actually picked the right Captain. :D Just as well with Beer Monkey picking up a load of points again. Think I made a mistake buying Darren Fletcher the other day, will have to get Gareth Barry back into the squad.
I watched most of the Arsenal-Spurs game and how they made Adebeyor MOM I don't know?

A very bad couple of game weeks for me.
Despite transferring Defoe for Berbatov and having a defender, Luke Young, score it was still another miserable week. Lost valuable ground on the big boys.
I knew I should have made Gerrard captain because I had a feeling Rooney would not start but like the gambling addict I am, I took a chance and it didn't pay off :(
Oh well only three days before the next round commences, Sunday night I will be watching all the scores live on the Internet, praying for one of my team to score [-o< :lol: :lol:

Although I'm only coming 9th i owe it all to Lampard. Without him I would be in last place.

I don't even get to see any of the games but I'm still addicted to FFL.

I never can tell who is in the team each week. Can anybody tell me why Sol Campbell from Pompey isn't playing?

And why doesn't Oshea from United get a run? I felt sure he would get a run with the extra games this week.

Oh well, it's all good fun, innit. :confused:
Such is life.

From what I can see, there's no reason for Campbell to be out. I think it might be down to new manager, Tony Adams, making a statement of intent. He didn't pick DeFoe to start either.
Not sure who it was, maybe Brian, suggested this site:-

It gives a rough guide of who is injured, but from past experiences, it's not 100% reliable.

I think he never bought Tony Adams a drink at Arsenal.
