Onyeka now on 3pts.

Shame the match facts page doesn't have symbols for saves and tackles. You just have to guess / work it out from the points.

The work experience boy is going to have great fun when he has to start live scoring 5 matches at once on a Saturday afternoon with all these save and tackle points!

All presumably automated from OPTA stats feed.

Presume we will soon be able to confirm the definition of 'tackle won' we are working to.

GK Raya 9(7+2). 2 points for 4 saves will be a fairly regular this season. Dont think there will be that many clean sheets on top though when that happens. Losing GK this time does not seem to have picked up any Save points.

Especially in the Egg League!! :mrgreen:


I notice there are 12 full Brentford teams at the top of the season table, on 67 points! :shock:
It's a good weekly to win!

I see looking at the leagues I am in my teams are showing at the top of the leagues however man points they have (or don't have). That'll be a pain in the rear end when copying and pasting leagues standings into a spreadsheet and having to insert my teams into the correct place in the league.

I've found a bug! :twisted: The FISO League's table crashes when you try and load more than 50 teams (but other leagues don't :? )

The app crashes for me when I turn my phone on its side to try to view a league table in landscape. 😲 If I want to do that I have to start the session in landscape. Weird.

I'm trying to get an idea of how many teams are in so far. Has anyone got a team that's doing reasonably well and can check its position in the wooden spoon league? My best team has 2 points and is in the 67,000s.

Best guess is around 87k at the moment. My best team is on 9 points and just under 2000th in the main leaderboard, and around 85000th in the Wooden Spoon.

Ooof..I think SamD will have the figures but that feels low even taking into account the 5 teams per manager (🤔) of recent years.

TFF leagues on FISO seem healthy though. Good interest in all the sidegames I have been involved in.

Maybe the efforts of TFF to attract the 'yoof' with FPL-Lite gimmicks and dumbing down is failing badly and those of us old codgers who moan about these changes still turn up. Could have predicted the first but the latter is a pleasant surprise.

This is surely a bug? I can't see any reason why you'd want a table like this?

Johnners is spot on. Team numbers before first match = 86,800.

Do I gain more than I lose when my GK saves a Pen from one of my players?

Is it an odd numbered save? Is your keeper on for a CS?

That too but there are also save points and CS points to think about......

Generally best if they score, putting it wide is the worst.....

I doubt that a Pen Save will count as a Save for Save points.
