With 3 days' matches gone, three have scored heavily enough already - haven't they? Two others surely feeling mostly safe but what has Morgan B got up his sleeve(/kilt)? Should Doogal and Workie burn a valuable transfer or 2 to make sure? Have they got any?

Guess who did that... Luckily morganb seems to have saved me. Looks like Deeney may have to go too. Transfers suddenly not looking so plentiful.

My 'go big on the Arsenal defence' strategy wasn't quite as successful as I expected.

Lost by one. :| I knew I should have used one more transfer, but couldn't bring myself to jettison someone with two games next week (as all the rest of my team had).

Good luck to the last four - it has been a great game this year. Thanks for running it, murf.

Think the 3 above you all scored a Hazardous 5 but you needed 10 and got 9.

All starts again tonight.

Tough luck Doogal. I’d decided to conserve transfers yesterday (only got 30-odd left now :wink: ) and sit on my hands - seems I got away with it :D

Ouch Doogal! That is a tough one if you still had a few transfers left. My exit last year was down to the type of call you made last night. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

I’m very pleased to have a semi final berth (not quite a semi final but you know what I mean).

I have to say this is one of my favourite games Murf. Great idea. :D

CULL 17, ONLY WEEK, DAY 2 SCORES

7 flanges to go! All the scores start with a different number - but how big will that number need to be come Sunday evening? Bigger than 4 I'd guess.

Hogmeister (Highlander Hog) 40
Workie(stherecanbeonly1) 37
Maldini (Suffragette City) 29
Jamjack (Connor MacLeod) 19 :(


There probably won't be any updates (from me) over the weekend, sorry.

It's only 10 points so you simply need to find yourself a goal-scoring defender who can also keep a cleansheet (so not Matt Doherty then!)

He is in all my other teams but that doesn’t really help me right now! I’ve checked the fixture list....transfers will be needed.... :lol:

I still haven’t made a single transfer specifically aimed at staying in this competition and I don’t intend to start now.

You should be fine Jamjack.

If it’s correct that I’ve sneaked past you by 2 points, it’s only because I made 3 transfers for a grand total of 6 extra points. Turns out I needed them all to progress but that’s still a dreadful transfer performance.

Yep, I’m done for.

Didn’t make a transfer. Have three left but have bigger fish to fry (cash league) with this one.

Good luck to the final three!

Hard luck Maldini, tbh you did well getting this far without a dedicated team.

I decided after last year that a dedicated team was needed for this competition, and so my transfers this year have only been made with the weekly scores in mind, and this team has been regularly ignored in the earlier weeks when I had immunity. Crazily, despite all that, it is currently outscoring my main team! 😂

...and then there were three 😀
