Makes a change watching the weather reports rather than stats. Could be an advantage to me to have the Newcastle chelsea game snowed off.

Must be teams ahead of me who have splurged on a 'big' 11 who could be two or three players down maybe four.

I may be similarly affected but have half decent coverage on the bench.... which way to go?...will we know by noon tommorrow?

'let it snow, let it snow, let it snow'

Anyone else hoping to take advantage of missing Chelsea players?

Is it an opportunity for catch up?

Or is the gamble to big to take if the game went ahead?

Should we prepare for snow?......or just hold and hope?

I might even attempt a poll if I can find the buttons!

I live in the North East, I'll give you an update tomorrow

One ground in the premiership did not have underground heating but I think it was Portsmouth, will have to do some reasearch later haver some non home brew.

Makes the Elmander or Caroll decision a little easier.

If Newcastle game was Saturday it would definately be off. Just had another 4ins of snow in the last 2 hours. I live about 2 miles from ground and have about a foot of snow lying in the garden. Pitch might be OK but it will be off on safety grounds.

+1 will update in the morning

Not much more snow since last update but there is a good 6-8 inches on the ground with more forecast.

Snow update before the deadline - sun's been shining most of the morning public transport running on most routes.

Well I went 'go for snow'... what a bench I've got now

But still have a half-decent team. It shouldn't go too badly.... but there is always the consolation of the home brew <slurp> eyes down here we go!

Brave man - should see you shoot up that leaderboard if it pays off.

I've gambled the other way by making Drogba captain when others may not risk him

Well the snow gamble takes me from 666th 378th... and no Berb .... so sorry guys but the game needs to be off.... no really sorry

I'm voting for Snow. Forecast on ITV now is looking very promising indeed.-- Max of 2 Chelsea players plus Bale (Which is not exactly a well kept secret for anyone)

Both my teams have risen today but if people have four Chelsea players plus Carroll, I will probable spiral downwards again.

Positional changes to my teams today:-

4935 7592
2709 3126
1152 1330
747 1196
20515 21694

Need my 5 per team to play tomorrow!

Snow update - Been snowing on and off all day in Newcastle. In fantasy terms on got a couple of assists and a goal and off conceded a goal, got booked and missed a pen.

Looking good for the homebrewer.

Snow tactic going to be enforced today anyone?

Yes... Still got a Transfer to do.... Torres (Who some people might have Captained and left in) Gone... Also Albrighton is Bench, so still got 11 in all teams at the mo!! Though not sure if Gabbidon will play!!... Ohhh have also dumped Bale, as dont want to risk getting Zero, he could get 100 if on.... though I will take the chance..

No more snow according to metcheck. No undersoil there though....won't be bringing in VDV as planned but wont drop Bale though....

I see yes, though it's by the sea and if Frozen it wont go ahead.... Yes its good if they play, though I think Cole will get as many who I had benched as I have Sagna and Clichy it all my teams.... Got a Transfer as well so will wait till 11:50ish... or maybe need to see if Bent starts as well..

Thanks for the thoughts Crook. Benched Bale in case....

Metro T&C


Just finished my tinkers and read this nearly got a heart attack! Realised it is 12 deadline <phew>.......isn't it?

Yes it is.. I remember getting Arteta out at 11:59 last month! Still waiting on Brum game as have Carrol in a few teams!! hand on I still have a transfer in every team, might just sub him out...

Nice just got Carrol out, hopefully few people still with him and Nolan!! If the Spurs game is off, then its all good..

If Arse game off, thats me.. F**ked... no Cap... 4 players out.. ;-(

Brought Birmingham players in - stupid move really but I want some coverage so it's not a disaster....it will be if Bale scored a hatrick.

So Man U off and Spurs... Down to 5 in my Team in 232nd!! Just Seen Gabbidon starts!! Dam they should have a Sub rule..

My Team A - 2 Down (After Sunderland V Bolton) potentially another 3 to play. With the benefit of Hindsight, Nasri would not have been Captain and S Parker would not be on the bench.

My Team B - 1 Down (After Sunderland V Bolton) potentially another 3 to play. Gambled on Arsenal game being on. Had Nasri as Captain and also have Distin & Elmander on the bench


I am sure there are some teams that have had all 11 players out though.

I have a feeling that if you have 4 or more players playing this week, you will go up the Leaderboard.
