After 2 games I'm safely ahead of 8 of you.

Leader on 19, I'm on 2, 8 of you yet to shake the dust off the balls of the TFF abacus.

CULL 2, DAY 1 SCORES

A nice range of scores suggesting a nice range of players to have played. Just 2 points for bluenosey but does he have 10 to play? Are you running low on point opportunities?

6 flanges to go but in these days of coronavirus that is only 6 games (and, on average, 9.7 penalties and 23.8 controversial VAR decisions).

Who will be feeling smug tomorrow night and whose bottoms will be emitting strange noises?

CULL 2, DAY 2 SCORES

You are all a bit quiet? Feeling nervous? Smug?

Zip is bottom on 11 but has he got the teeth to pull together and so climb this evening? Plenty within catching distance although those whose scores start with a 3 or 4 may feel safe to watch tonight's games from on the sofa rather than behind it. Well, that is if they've got Mane and Salah and Aubameyang and TAA......

Shows you I should have read this thread more carefully - I was assuming that this was one of those weeks where the field was cut in half. Now I see there was only one of them. Balls. For a moment yesterday I was happy that Vinagre started. Then he conceded 4 goals.

The shortened season, zombie returns and relatively good entry means we can get fully vicious right away!

No Wolves defenders here but I did have a City one (although I got lucky there).

Zip off the bottom on the live scoring.

Will I need to google Danny Springs for the weekly update memorial picture?

Plays up front for Southampton - scores lots of headers, got a good leap on him.

CULL 2, FINAL SCORES

Confirmation of bluenosey's demise:

HighaFour02X.png

Right back at it this weekend with the 'prize' of the final pre-international break ticket to join shalhassan and bluenosey in the first Zombie Off in late October. Wahoo?

You also win more spare time to joing LLB in the FISO Interior Design and Cushions subforum (I would say you could blow away the cobwebs and kick out the tumbleweed but I am reliably informed, by morganb, that it is kept spotless).

I've just wasted 20 minutes (that I'll never get back) looking for the FISO Interior Design and Cushions subforum. I couldn't work out if it would be under the Shopping forum or the Hobbies forum... it was neither. I was reminded of LLB as he was featured on Harry Hill's World of TV on Sunday. I wonder if you can get a cushion with his face on... no, he does a range of cushions and someone has made a face mask:

Here goes week 4 or "Cull 3" as it is known in these parts.

A slight variation to the new normal in that abnormally there are games on only 2 days and over 'just' 8 flanges. 4 today and 4 tomorrow. Sunday starting with a rare overload of 2 games happening at once then doing the same thing again. Madness!

Last game to burn thise transfers on is tight defence upstarts Villa versus on fire (and not just from Coronavirus) Liverpool. Not the worst to burn your transfers on in a mad scramble to survive - but hard to work out just where the points will land. Not with Mane owners....

Chelsea win 4-0, DCL scores....

Yet still 6 teams on 0 pts.

They'd be safe though. A Palace defender, presumably, leaves tbf on negative points.

tbf is, like Trump, now positive but morganb and blah look like they are going into the final day as a pair of zeroes.

CULL 3, DAY 1 SCORES... sort of

1 day done. 1 day left. 4 games gone. 6 games to go. 0 pretty scoreboards.

morganb and blah are last on 0, 5 on just 2.

14 of 26 still in single figures but I'm not feeling overly smug/safe on 10 unlike Vid who may well be relaxed about his 52.

Not til you need to.

Mind you, good job you didn't sell him and panic buy a Liverpool defender for the last game of the last set!

CULL 3, FINAL SCORES

Not the week to be relying on Liverpool defenders to save you at(/from) the death. Ten Pin Terry is skittled and now faces the Zombie off where there is one spare place available to the lowest scorer in the first week back.

If you say something (or someone) enough...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-54477804

Davina McCall has been named as the host of Channel 4's upcoming reboot of the BBC show, Changing Rooms.

The presenter will join interior designer Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, who was on the original home improvement show which broadcast on the BBC from 1997 to 2004.
