Re: GW36 Transfers - Deadline: Saturday April 26th, 11:30am
Going away tomorrow morning so I wanted to get my transfers done tonight.
Lukaku Rooney
Silva Mata
Collins Smalling
For -8. I would have only had 9 players without any transfers so not quite the risk of a normal points hit.

Isn't this illegal in Premiership, not playing your strongest team?

I don't think so, though it's not the done thing. Someone could do the same to impact your title run next year (Jose).Isalla wrote:Isn't this illegal in Premiership, not playing your strongest team?

Portsmouth did it in 2008 at home to Fulham before the FA Cup final. There wasn't any fuss about that.

Premier League rule E.20 states: "In every league match each participating club shall field a full-strength team."

With a couple of players cup tied Moaneenwho can get away with it, he will just feign injuries on a couple of others.

Think you'll find you are mistaken here. 8 of the starting players were the same in the cup final (and Defoe was cup tied), so only James and Campbell rested. Sour grapes because Reading got relegated?Tom_Foolery wrote:Portsmouth did it in 2008 at home to Fulham before the FA Cup final. There wasn't any fuss about that.

Re: GW36 Transfers - Deadline: Saturday April 26th, 11:30am
Rules have changed slightly in their interpretation, in that players from the full 25-man squad, eg Hilario etc, are regarded as full-strength, plus they can always add in a couple of u21's on the basis of encouraging younger players.Isalla wrote:Premier League rule E.20 states: "In every league match each participating club shall field a full-strength team."

Besides which how much would Chelsea care about a tiny fine compared to CL prize money?

Probably been said before but what is Baldrick doing on the scoutcasts and why is he using the pseudonym 'Mark'?

Re: GW36 Transfers - Deadline: Saturday April 26th, 11:30am
I've seen this too - I think the rule got tested after a couple of big fines and was found to be unenforceable or possibly counter to EU/UEFA regulations.The Catman wrote:Rules have changed slightly in their interpretation, in that players from the full 25-man squad, eg Hilario etc, are regarded as full-strength, plus they can always add in a couple of u21's on the basis of encouraging younger players.Isalla wrote:Premier League rule E.20 states: "In every league match each participating club shall field a full-strength team."

Re: GW36 Transfers - Deadline: Saturday April 26th, 11:30am
Ok maybe you were not mistaken. You were just proving a point that a team rested 2 players 6 years ago. Great post if you knew it was 2 players and wrote the original post. Wonder if any other team has rested 2 older players with a big game coming up in the last 6 years....I wonderTom_Foolery wrote:Yes, obviously.pompey1898 wrote:Think you'll find you are mistaken here. 8 of the starting players were the same in the cup final (and Defoe was cup tied), so only James and Campbell rested.

Best price online with Stan James is 7/4 and working within the industry, this price is likely to shorten.Tacalabala wrote:What are the odds an a Liverpool win with 1 goal handicap?
My tip on this option: NO BET. Terrible value.

Lallana Ramsey
Lukaku Rooney
Two uninjured, nailed on players transferred out for a 4pt hit. I've caught this transfer fever that is doing the rounds!

Now, the question is, will Rooney score 4 pts more than Lukaku.

I don't think Danny will start but will be explosive off the bench.

I'm keeping Lukaku for now, he can easily put two in any given week, and he usually performs better against the stronger teams.
