TG - I think that if you had just said "Cheers Dot" without all the previous stuff, I reckon that most of us would have been able to work out what you were referring to.

Good luck in Rock and Roll striker as well!!

Cheers - would be good if we both won. Unfortunately Hangeland's two goals and clean sheet last weekend has probably snookered me. 4 points behind and the new leader will probably have more players on the pitch on Sunday. I'm gonna get the prayer mat out for VdV to be fit enough to play and to grab a brace.

Top 20 with 1 set of fixtures left - good luck Terry

Andy

Man city clean sheet not as bad as it could have been then Terry, so now I can wish you luck
(Of course I was anyway)

And I see you are leading me Rosie's league Andy, good luck with that...


Good luck to everyone else in with a chance of winning something as well

Thanks Ben ! Good luck to you too - sort of

Not very confident , to be honest

This is the 11 I've ended up with

Hart
Lescott
Kolarov
Huth
Hangeland
Lampard
Silva
Nani
Van Persie
Bent
Hernandez

Andy

Cheers for that, I've still got a couple of transfers left. MWAHAHAHAHA

I'd had my sights on your Korma team, so was a bit vexed when this one flew past me on Sunday. Figured you had hangeland, but Bent too! Lucky sod

I think you will edge it, the match up will be

Kolarov v kompany:
Hangeland v Shawcross
Lampard v Toure
Nani v Nasri (did Nani to Toure a couple of weeks ago not realising the extent of Nasri injury)
Hernandez v Rooney
Bent v Suarez

Seeing that we are both reds, and it could come down to Bent v Suarez, at least I am on the 'right' side of the equation.

I'm actually going to the Villa game, but in with the Villa fans, so god knows what I'll do if Suarez gets a hattrick!

This will be my best finish in any season long comp..usually only do this well in the wc, euros or CL games. Good luck to all involved in the race for prizes.

Good luck guys on the last day, been my worst season in this game (listened to Ingram too much)

Yes, good luck all....also been my worst season so far (listened to Milan way too much )

I listened to myself for a change and have done rather well

and I should have listened to you Tel

Good luck all I tried to get up in the top 20 but did not quite manage it, floated around between 30 and 80 for the last few months.

Sunday sorted, wife going shopping, just me, a few cans of beer and the phone unplugged.

Two hours of excitement and tension, cannot wait.

Sue is in Spain, your always welcome to come round here to watch it on a big HD screen.
I could pick you up, ask the good lady to get you later?

Sunday sorted, me in an English bar in C'an Picafort, 26 degrees, 14 foot of Lager, 10 games simulataneously on multitude of screens.

Unlucky Terry.....3rd.....but great effort mate

Well done Diyan!

Chelsea's habit of conceeding ultimately swung this at the death. Good timing from Diyan but unlucky those with a Blues defence, just one clean sheet in 7 premiership matches. Commiserations TG.

Thank you, Darren.
Terry has been really unlucky in the end, not the best time to have a bad run.

Congrats Diyan.
I must have been the only manager in the top 10 to have 11 players starting yesterday.
As Randal states, Chelsea's inability to keep a clean sheet against 10 men along with Harts save against Elmander cost me in the end.
I must have upset lady luck somewhere.

Thanks, Terry
Overall, I think you have played better than me and most of the TOP 10. But I do still wonder why you didn't bring a City defender at anytime. It could have won you the first place. Considering your position always at the top - you just didn't need so many Chelsea defenders in your team IMO.
Anyway, all in the past now...Enjoy the summer and I'm sure I'll see your name on the top leaderboard again next year.

Very true Diyan but I was only using my remaining transfers to cover injuries.
My last transfer was to remove Dempsey when he picked up a hammy and put in Hitzleperger.
In a normal season, my four Chelsea defenders would have seen me over the line.
I felt a bit low yesterday but I have not lost 20k, I have won 3k (including the £500 mini league) the cup is half full and all of that.
Enjoy your winnings and do not spend it too wisely
