CULL 29 - half time in 2pm games SCORES

71 + 7 + 5 = 83 Jamjack, Arry and Is Ighlanders
66 + 1 + 1 = 68 RCN and his Losers and Boozers
49 + 0 + 5 = 54 murf and his Spursfree mob

At least you don't have Bowen......

[RCN]

Big night tomorrow needed murf.

[murf]

Big night tomorrow needed murf.

15 point gap. Not gonna happen. Good luck in the final!

[Jamjack]

You are fooling no one Murf. I vividly remember you confirming you had 5 transfers a week left.

You are fooling no one Murf. I vividly remember you confirming you had 5 transfers a week left.

And I'm as honest as the season is long.

[murf]

In case of miracles and RCN scores -16.....

83 Jamjack
68 RCN
53 murf

[murf]

In case of miracles as the game starts

83+6 = 89 Jamjack
68+2 = 70 RCN
53+6 = 59 murf

So a CS closes the gap to just 8.

So I just need a goal and assist from my other player who RCN probably also owns.

[murf]

Why oh why do I always fall for cheap Arsenal defenders/keepers? Every ****ing year I fall for it. Every ****ing year they let me down. One goal conceded. One. Just one. Every game. Every single game.

From Monty Python's Arsenal defenders sketch:

Nobody picks the cheap Arsenal defenders/keepers.

Every ****ing year you fall for it. Every ****ing year they let you down.

One goals conceded. One. Just one. Every game. Every single game.

No...

Two. Two goals conceded. Just two. Every game. Every single game.

[RCN]

Unlucky murf.
Good luck in the final Jamjack. I’m chuffed I’ve made back to back finals. Shame my cash leagues don’t go as well

[murf]

It's all Alex Telles' fault.

Brought him in 2 weeks ago when I didn't need to then last week he scored -1 when the player he replaced did well meaning I burnt my last transfer and had a player without a game this week.

Without him I would have had more points this week and 2 transfers to use.

Rubbish.

Good luck in the final chaps - if I don't cancel it.

[Jamjack]

That made me chuckle

It could be worse Murf, you could be an Arsenal fan. Text from my Gooner mate this evening has put your rage to shame.

Well done on a hard battling third. Have we ever had an ex zombie winner? Multiple zombie even?

Good luck in the final RCN. I’ll pop my team on to public at the Sunday KO’s.

[RCN]

Yeah I’ll try and remember to as well

[Johnners]

Have we ever had an ex zombie winner? Multiple zombie even?

I had a couple of stints with the undead last year, but that was when the path to reanimation was more forgiving.

Bad luck on murf, I really thought this might have been the year of the sheep. Still, at least he appears to have taken it well.

Well done to you and RCN, time to get your suits fitted for the final. Or, seeing as you've both been there before, just dust off the ones you wore last time.

Best of luck to the pair of you.

[Jamjack]

Edit - fat thumbs hit submit too quickly!

[Jamjack]

That’s impressive. I’m a one time Zombie type of player

My suit has shrunk in the wardrobe during lockdown. I’ll try and pull a Pep ensemble together

[murf]

THE FINAL CULL - VERY EARLY DOORS SCORES

At 0-0
10 RCN
4 Jamjack

At 1-0
6 RCN
2 Jamjack

3 players v 1 player

[Jamjack]

Mmm.

[murf]

Anyone gota Jota assist there?

[Jamjack]

Anyone gota Jota assist there?

No. Which surprised me given the other non defender players. Unless the league update is slow.

[murf]

No. Which surprised me given the other non defender players. Unless the league update is slow.

Broja? Ward? Prowse?

EDIT Yep, it is slow and, yep, it is Jota

RCN 9
Jamjack 2

[Jamjack]

Yikes. Mind the gap!

[murf]

Ooooh, who has Matip?

[Jamjack]

Both!

Never mind. Now I know 3 of RCN’s players, I can use those last 5 transfers wisely.

[murf]

14 Matip, Jota, Liverpool defender/keeper?
v
7 Matip

[Jamjack]

Matip has been a great buy for the run in

[RCN]

Especially at his price. With only 4 transfers left he’ll probably stay now for me

[Jamjack]

Which would suggest to me you are not contemplating the Norwich block. My route to victory is cleared.

Good luck today fellas
