Tff Wooden Spoon 17/18

Post by robot »

Back again for another year by popular demand!

To Enter create a team and follow the rules of TFF, the idea being to score as little as possible over the season, usually by having a complete team of Injured/non starting/ removed from tff list players and then judging the correct time to transfer in an individual or block of defensive players to score minus points.

The winner of this league will have bragging rights the winner of the tff game wins as follows:

The Season Ticket holderwhose team finishes in last place in the Overall Leaderboard shall win the ‘Wooden Spoon’ prize of £50. To be eligible for a prize in the Overall Leaderboard a Manager must have purchased a Season Ticket and submitted their teams by 23:59 (BST) on Monday, October 9, 2017.

The League pin for the single league is 8132636 passcode 2345

Now we are three...

I wonder if anyone risked a Leicester block for a season long attempt, and now fancies their chances of £50?

P.S. In case this is of any use, the BBC transfers page for July (7th), shows Amat of Swansea has gone on loan to Real Betis, tho' he is still on the TFF list.

Top (or is that bottom) 100 all negative, wooden spoon leader already on -5.
What will it look like after the next update?

Anyone know how to view more than top 100 in leader boards, as there is no apparent next page option?

They will be leicester based with outfield scorings players i guess so should disappear.

I havent been able to work out the url for jumping down pages since they changed the website last year.

Edit just had a closer look:

Sandor has got 40 leicester blocks!!!!!!@

Only twelve on negative points now, and the best on minus three.

Only three points off the lead then! 8-)

FISO - I need you help!

I am equal top of the wooden spoon league having added a Palace block today.
The other leader did exactly the same thing it seems.

My question is, do I take them out or leave them in for next weeks trip to Old Trafford?

Difficult to say, could easily be 1-0, I would possibly take them out then wait for another go later in the season.

I did the same but unfortunately due to lack if preperation the year have scored 21 points through players I thought wouldnt play :oops:

That was my first thought - just don't think I can resist the gamble (especially as a United supporter).
I would also be so peed off if I stuck and the other guy twisted and beat me!
Never was a winner at cards.....




You on the other hand have to leave them in - good luck!! :)

I've had some fun with the wooden spoon this season, but I just couldn't join up my negative scores without some intervening positives.

Went all in on Huddersfield today :oops: so no further opportunities. Didn't even consider Burnley as an option. :shock:
