TFF Four Full Draft Game - Season Five - 2016-17

[Spencer4]

Done, but Lallana's injury means I may have to change. When can I??

[thebillfella]

Usually after one set of fixtures with the new draft are complete.

All done, and ready to make the necessary changes once I'm able

Can we confirm once and for all who Nathan247 now owns so we know who is still available?

Final Table, and yes I think Striker will say 00.01 on tuesday for transfers, but wait for his conformation.

Reminder of the table:

Final five transfers done after just the one redraft!

Yup that's confirmed. The rules state that all teams must remain unchanged for one complete round of fixtures, which means up until after the 10th Premier game kicks off, but for admin purposes such as easy checking that no one has accidentally jumped the gun, we allow transfers from the beginning of the following TFF week. i.e. as robot says 00.01 am on Tuesday.

Guess that several of us will be in the "market" on Tuesday. In my case I don't think that Seamus Coleman will be earning me many points in the near future, so he'll be out on Tuesday. The difficult thing is remembering as making TFF transfers on a Tuesday doesn't feel natural. But with Premiership games on Tuesday evening, I guess that we're all more likely to remember this week.

I have done my last 2

[Striker]

Just done my last three transfers.

A warning to anyone who hasn't yet done them, or who may be making transfers in their other teams tomorrow!!!!

There is a problem for TFF with some browsers. On Wednesday, yesterday and today I tried to log in both using Safari on my iPad and using Explorer on my PC. In both cases every day I got the same outcome. Instead of my address bar say fantasyfootballtelegraph/premierleague/login (or whatever) it flashed every second between fantasyfootballtelegraph/premierleague/home and fantasyfootballtelegraph/premierleague/logout.

So just now I rang the help-line and was told that there wasn't a problem. It was suggested that I tried to log in using Chrome, which worked. It wasn't a problem for me as I had plenty of time to ring TFF etc and sort it out. But if I'd only found the problem at say 2.30pm tomorrow afternoon, I may have been stymied and not sorted it out in time.

The help line suggested that it was a browser problem and not a TFF problem. I said that was true if it was just one browser was involved, but when at least two very different but both major browsers do not allow you to access your TFF team they should accept a major part of the blame. She sort of accepted that view. She also said that she was unaware of the problem. Given that I've had it for at least 3 days on both browsers they seem to be living in an ivory tower.

So I suggest that if you have a problem try using Chrome.

[Striker]

Three managers still need to make their second tranche of transfers.

Bloomin' 'eck guys, you're so slow that even nathan247 has left you in his slipstream this time around.

Just to confuse things further, I had the same problem while trying to set up my cricket team - and I'm on Chrome! - it then worked perfectly on Firefox

Think I'm the last to say all done!

[lyons316]

Done all mine.

[Striker]

You're not quite done. You still have Carroll in your team instead of your new signing Sterling.

No point in my PM'ing you as you don't seem to notice them quickly, so I hope that you read this by 3 pm.

Even if you don't notice this until say Tuesday morning, the rules say that you'll only be subject to a score adjustment if your wrong player scores more than your correct player. So if you remain in ignorance of your error, you want Sterling and Carroll to score the same, or Sterling to just outscore Carroll. Your worst scenario would be for Carroll to outscore Sterling.

Otherwise everyone else seems OK to me.

[Striker]

Wake up sibrown4

You still don't have the correct team. So far no penalty as luckily for you both Sterling and Carroll have scored 2 pts.

sibrown4's team finally sorted, with fate determining no penalty as he didn't gain from his mistake.

[thebillfella]

Intention to do:

P Jones Grosicki

[streety]

Valencia Kompany

DONE.

[nffc]

Valencia Kompany

DONE.

Been on the Kompany train a few of times in this league, amazing player but been caught out everytime..

Injured player injured next week player

[streety]

Valencia Kompany

DONE.

I changed my mind at the last minute. Got a risky forward line of Long, Afobe and Valencia, who all don't play. Was going to swap Valencia for Abel Hernandez. Thought Kompany would be a safer pick

[robot]

Williams Shaw intended

Done/need to use them to try the lost cause of chasing streety.

[robot]

Just had a look at the teams/table to help convince myself the chase is on and:

On the positive side Possibly best striker draft ever kane ibra negredo!
6 goals so far this week and walcott and ndidi to come,
The shaw transfer success and a few transfers still spare.
On the negative side streety still scoring well and man city heavy defence will be hard to stop if they have a few clean sheets.

But still just possible with a bit of luck
