Who is the biggest waste of space on your team so far this season? What player in your GW11 squad has scored the least amount of points this season. However they have to have played some part in every match to qualify as a waste of space. (If you are picking a player who does not play it is the manager who is a waste of space! :lol: )

Lowest points wins.

Mine is Healy 27

And he played so well in gameweeks one and two. :roll:

Mine just beats yours, I have Miller from Sunderland with 23 points and 619 minutes played.
I keep him as my first or second sub, always gets a game mainly as sub (I think) so a sure fire one or two points if subs needed.

Not sure Baines counts as he didn't play first 3 games of the season. He is in my team also (if he counts?)

I have set myself the challenge of carrying the legend that is Titus Bramble through the season.He hardly plays for me-but he does for Wigan.
11 games,990 minutes of fairly futile endeavour for a mere 22 points.

FS Record: Good at something
Need a bit of confirmnation on the rules

I still have Teale (15) but he hasn't played for a bit
Hibbert (17) has missed 2 games
Next is Ronaldo! (31) missed a few
Finnan (34) missed one
Jerome (35) is my lowest with some minutes in every game (and hence my answer according to the letter of the rules). Shocking thing is that I have only just bought this waste of space!

Ol' Titus has spent more time on the pitch than Miller and scored less points, a true waste of space, well done. :wink:

Gordon - 30

I would have had this one sewn up if Muamba had made an appearance against Liverpool. He has 19pts in 766min, and Liverpool is the only game he hasn't taken any part in. He's been in my squad from the start but hasn't yet made it onto the pitch, either through my first 11 or through auto subbing. He's just super cheap and gets 2pts just about every week.

Correct, friend!

Carlton Cole has missed 4 games this season, so he's not elligible either. I think Gordon(30) is krisp's lowest scoring elligible player then also.


(i don't suppose there's any chance of special dispensation for Muamba?? He's played an awful lot of football for very few points, a complete waste of space, and has only missed one game. Go on, you know you want to let him in!! :D )

Pearson 28 points

Not only has he played in every game, he's played every minute of every game. And been in my squad the whole season. :D

Not that I have this player, but after a bit of detective work I found that Ooijer has played 665 minutes and scored 15 points.
He played just 1 minute in one game but it counts.
So if you have this player step forward and share your shame :lol:

Taylor of Middlesborough has only missed 8 minutes of football so far this season, has dropped 0.2 in value, and amassed a huge 19 points for me so far :D I just never seem to have a free transfer to get rid of the waster!

Gordon 30.

He's followed closely by Garrido, 36. Now he's a real waste of space!

Bought in GW6 for the bench. He did his job with autosubs for 3 and 2 points. I may keep him until his double week, whenever that may be, but he's now 0.8m over base price (Kavanagh loaned to Sheff Wed).

Gordon at 30 points for me as well.

(Dis)honourable mentions for Garrido (36) and Ashley Young, who played every second of every match for 35 points. Why oh why did I buy him last gameweek? :roll:

viddleodge wins by being the proud owner of McEverly, for some reason. flyingkillercob follows up his X League MOTM with a second place here, is there anything this man is not good at? El Tel of Ealing takes third place in his first attempt at a pointless comp.

Pointless Waste of Space results
Score Pos Name Pointless Points
18 1st viddleodge 10
19 2nd flyingkillercob 9

28 7th reds363 3
30 8th CarlosTheFinger, beglee, shawpower, URKiddingMe, velcro, andybarrell, sligorover, UmExcuseMe, RamR 1

With around a quarter of the season gone we now have joint leaders. flyingkillercob and dalythgoe are locked together over 10 pointless points clear of vinntutd6899 and murf who both failed to score this week.

when i drafted mceverley as a cheap filler goat back in gw4's wildcard i had no idea he'd be worthwhile in a pointless way. just wish he'd made the starting XI in gw10 for his freak 9 pts. :lol: :wink:
