but if it's the same game, than the leaderboard will dictate which game is easier.

the points will reflect that.

Yes it would.

But its not the same game.

Here you only pick 11 players.

Current top 10
1 Daniel Kilcoyne Folkloredan 250
2 Gary Wright The Fen Beagles 248

10 trevor gordon wataboutyee's 226

Judging by the transfers used I think my 'real' position at the moment is 3rd - but its a hard one to judge at the moment as a few newcomers to the leaderboard pose a real threat. I won't be taking anything for granted and still a very long way to go.

The name I recognise on there is Michael Shipley he has won lots of different comps including the Guardian game last year I think.

I am back in 97th so a lot of catching up to do!

Good luck.

Yeah exactly my thoughts because you don't get points for a penalty save.

Looks like he got an assist for his long punt for the first Stoke goal

Of all the free OFL games, this one has one of the best monthly prizes.

I've now received my free £500 bet for winning January, and they've told me I can use it to make as many small bets as I want, which means I don't have to worry about how best to use it in one hit. Result! :lol:

1 transfer left now, currently lying 13th overall (although doubt I will catch the leaders).

Trying to decide whether to bring in Vermaelen for Shawcross this Saturday or bring in Drogba for Defoe on Saturday 13th March at 15.00.
Arsenal have a lot of easy games left...

simple...

u need what the top 13 guys have the least of...

but generally speaking... Insua or Glenn Johnson could be a sneaky way to climb the leader board.

scopsm · **Posted:** 07 Mar 2010, 12:09

Thanks, held off on going for Vermaelen. Glen Johnson would be a good idea if I could afford him, already got Insua although if Fabregas injured, may need to consider Kuyt (can't afford Gerrard or Torres)

Plummetting down to 55th now, 5 players out of 11 injured (Insua, Fabregas, Rooney, Shawcross, Hunt) and 0 transfers left. :shock:

Oh well, was good while it lasted.

melvin · **Posted:** 12 Apr 2010, 18:48

I'm in 11th place in this but no transfers left. Need Rooney back for Saturday.

Don't think I can catch the leaders either but a top 10 finish would be ok.
