Hi,

Just to add a bit of fun in this two-week window, I have added a new head to head league starting week 12.

It's open to anyone and it's called the Kamikaze_League - the code is 513401-537678

It's limited to the first 28, so don't delay too long.

Hope to see you there soon.

I'm the dad and my 3 sons have joined too. That leaves 24 spaces for non-Horton's!

Thanks for joining Grob.

Right yeah, get your butt kicked.

14,513 in the world and 95 points last week.

I think you'll be doing a fair share of butt kicking yourself!

Welcome aboard.

It's great to have you onboard, a name I recognise on the forum for sure.

What happened to you last week - Millionaire's Club? Like many I think that Liverpool vs Swansea result came as a surprise, I had Vorm, Dyer and N Taylor on my bench too.

I'm Looking forward to this league, some good players are in already.

Was 176th overall on Sat teatime few weeks ago 8-) , but it's been all downhill since then :lol:

Was planning to bring in Baines again shortly, but couldn't resist bringing in Bale instead, so I'll have to stick with Bosingwa I guess :roll:

If enough of the 21.6% who still own him hang on to him at least until after his big score against Wolves in GW13, he may only drop another 0.1 in the meantime :wink:

I've only just realised the implication of this start date - I'm going to get thumped in the first round,as I'd already taken an 8pt hit,and I fear that transfer penalties will be deducted from my score ?

Unless that is,the game organiser recognises the unfairness of this,and in the interests of establishing a level playing field,credits back the points hits already taken before the competition was announced ? :idea:

I guess I am OK with that, any advice on how I achieve it would be appreciated.

Everton are bound to come good soon, they can't stay 17th for too long.

For me Baines is a little pricey, but the lad Drenthe looks quite a good buy.

I just haven't managed to work him into my team, YET!

It's clear that your heart's in the right place, Bestpay, but other than starting the game in GW13, the only other solution I can think of would be to stipulate that anyone drawn against someone who faces a points penalty must take an equal points hit before the GW12 deadline and I'm not optimistic that others would agree to that.
Therefore I may simply have to accept defeat in the first round and hope that my skill will enable me to make up the lost ground thereafter.

Who Let The Hogs Out



Thanks for joining hogmeister.

A very nice squad value of £105.9M, btw - the best I can remember seeing so far this season.

I don't know whether you will find this reassuring or not, but 10 of your week 11 squad were in my team too!

Best of luck in the league, except when you play me of course!

You had me scratching for a while there, I was wondering now how do I achieve that.

Fingers crossed then that you find someone who takes an 8 point penalty hit.

It might be me yet with hamstring injuries to VDV and Agbonlahor - although its early days and both might make their next match, especially as Spurs v Villa isn't until the Monday.

May I suggest you tell newcomers they need to post their team name here,as it's a lot more fun if you know whom you're playing ?
So far,there's only one name there that I don't recognise and it's possible that TVTFC isn't a Fisoer,but as you're promoting the game via your avatar many more could join next week and remain anonymous,whereas as people return to Fiso after the Internationals,the remaining places will be taken before the end of next week.

It's good to have you onboard and I hope you enjoy this format.

I see you have a nice team value of £105.1M - well done on that.

I agree with this, I know all except 2 so far.

yorkshire dragons dean allen
TVT FC THE TAI VO

I have removed my avatar advert, i'm not advertising this elsewhere so new teams will hopefully post here.

We have a healthy 14 so far, i'm increasingly confident we'll get the 28 in time for next turn. If it looks like we are struggling, i'll advertise on my avatar again.

Good idea Bestpay. I'm sure you'll see the remaining places taken up quickly next week. It's very quiet at the moment with no EPL action.
Yorkshire Dragon is playing in the 5AS,but probably didn't think to post his entry here. I don't know the other one.
