Thus far i have only used 7 transfers. I wondered what some of the other teams have used as i am over a 100 points behind the leader.
Would the leader have used alot, or do i need a miracle?

i've used 12 mainly due to alot of injuries and poor first picks, going by last season mainly.

Last years winner got about 1800 points if I remember rightly, therefore it is reasonable to suggest that it will be similar this year, maybe a bit more, but not much, aim for about 1900. Therefore assuming an average season for a championship side will be 49-50 games (a couple rounds in FA cup + possible play offs) then a 39 point week average is about right.

We are also 1/3 though the game so 13 transfers although sounds a lot would be the average. So I would say very roughly anything around 624 (16 games*39 average week) with 13 transfers down is on target to be close. Clearly less transfers means more points so adjust a bit for these transfers maybe 5 points for each.

This will give you a rough idea how you are doing as leaderboards can be deceptive mid season, with a mix of teams getting it right at the minute or artificial side with loads of transfers used.

this last week i was one of the top scorers in the super league, with 58 , used 3 transfers too rotate the strikers as chopra was out, worked really well.

Only had 30 points this week. 102nd in overall league.
Took Chopra out for Simpson so that helped.
Going by the stats above looks like i'm a little off the pace but still plenty of time.

Thought it would be useful to have an update on the number of transfers used. Currently my highest placed team has used 11 transfers.

Anyone else want to say how many they have used??

PS. Does anyone know if Mr Robert Cartwright is a fiso member? I really want to know how many teams he has entered!

Used 10. Still haven't got to the Newcastle Block that's proving a necessity this season . Only in 1,100 place now after being safely in the top 500 early on.

10 transfers used, 586th position

Team in 25th with 17 left.Other 2 teams in 24th and 37th with less transfers.

55th and 20 transfers to play with.

108th with 20 transfers left. To far behind the leaders i think but only 9 goals behind in the golden boot so may have to concentrate on that instead.
