I was 37th, 80th and 400th until West Brom game, I'm hoping all my European picks come up trumps.

Still 10 to play in 2 teams.

Having a good run this week with my one team. In joint 2nd on 111 points (3 points behind John) with Sterling and Naismith to come. So Naismith needs to outscore The Ox.

Looks like a straight shoot out Chris between Naismith, Welbeck, The Ox, and maybe even someone like Kane :shock:

Straight shootout by the looks of it....
Great chance Chris....best of luck!
Didn't JM used to be in the BBM....or Chezz....name sounds familiar Dave?!

Good luck both anyway......and congrats to Spooge last week......was away and missed the thread.

Those Danny Welbeck goals will probably shake-up the leaderboard.

JM is a Chezzer. Spurs fan, must have been why he didn't go for Welbeck :roll:

Weekly game seems to have gone down well though?

Always seems to be a host of names from fiso on the board, and having the mid week points included gives it the feel of an end of a monthly prize, where you're waiting on one or two players. The £5k also very decent.

Are we expecting the field to thin out further once the Sun+ membership thing kicks in? Are we all expecting some quarterly charge on our cards at some point soon :?:

Oh well, good luck Chris with your Naismith tomorrow. Think Zarch has a team just below with McGeady. One more for Welbeck and all over though.

Advantage Steven Knowles in 11th with 105 points + Welbeck, Sterling and Chadli.

Next best is Neil Horner with Welbeck and Henderson in 20th on 102 points.

He had to have a decent game eventually I suppose!

At least I have him in the Elite league.

I've jumped up to position 168 with 105pts. Teams above me have Chadli and Naismith so my only hope is if Mcgeady scores a few today. Miracles can happen.

Miracles can happen but impossible in this case.

Indeed a great game by the sun, made better by a cap on the amount of entries allowed.
I'm happy paying the monthly £7.99 to play this.

Came 5th. So near, yet so far.

But agree with the above. This game is the best side game there has ever been. Hope they run it again next year.
