Re: Who I'll see your memory..and raise you. It was against the toon, a year or three after we bought him from yours, I watched from the old North Stand as he bagged a hat-trick. Hell of a player, and for those that can remember him, when I say Drogba reminds me of him and his style of play, they'll know exactly what I', talking about. Yes, indeed, those were the days!!!
Re: Gameweek 1 Changes I'd like to congratulate my fellow Draft 3 managers for helping our little group achieve the highest average score of any of the eight draft groups. Luck, you say? Never! I'd also like to point out the teams selecting sixth (and everybody but Clan in second to tell the truth) were obviously harshly affected by the FPL site's first week troubles. Nothing else could explain low scores from such gifted managers.
Re: Gameweek 1 Changes Draft 3 means you drafted 3rd in your League (in Dust case that was Jordan, Draft 2 was Rob Rob.... etc).. Jordan was up against all other Managers who drafted 3rd in their League (Small Rocks, VSR and Sand) This is only relevant in "Inter" League Competitions, such as the Super League.
Re: Gameweek 1 Changes okie dokie - the 4x also got me but that was before I realized it was just how many teams there were which makes it a bit redundant no?
Re: Gameweek 1 Changes Except that it does tell you there are four teams in the grouping - with four scoring possibilities. Next week, we have '8 x GW1 four point teams', etc; meaning eight teams in each 'grouping' playing for four scoring chances.
Shock, Horror, Probe As things stand at the moment, it appears Fantasy Premier League have - in their upgrading wisdom - decided not to show gameweek scores in league tables. http://fantasy.premierleague.com/my-leagues/17389/standings/ There does appear to be an empty column, so this might change but if it doesn't I fear for the end of this competition before it has even started. Updating the scores takes enough time as it is, without having to go through each team one-by-one to get the gameweek score.
Temporary Problems Great news, I hope the extra 62 points gets added to my team soon; to make our position look more respectible.

Transfer Window Who would you like to see arrive in the Premier League before the window closes on Wednesday? Who would be a good addition to your team?
Credit Where Credit's Due Yes, I can finally say something good about this season's Fantasy Premier League site..... Gameweek scores now get updated after the day's games. However..... I still the miss the old review of ALL player scores in matches played, right on the home page. For some strange reason all we get is goals, assists, yellow cards and saves displayed on the My Team gameweek page. Also would still like to see the return of price rise and price fall stats.
Fantasy Premier League Nightmares With over 2 million managers I guess this was always going to happen when everyone wanted to sell Spurs and buy Man City at the same time. 500 Internal Server Error
Man City Run Riot and Crash The Server And recounting my Dzeko goals; after first making sure than my Yaya Toure assist wasn't really a Nasri assist.
City of Manchester vs North London Did any of our Managers have Rooney, Young, Nasri and Dzeko? Awesome! Frightening.

Where's The Money While watching Stoke fail to hold on to their one goal lead during injury time in Kiev, I thought I'd do my usual look at the money teams; this time for All Rocks.... and it's nice to see my lot are good at something. ------------------ Park Lane - 100.9 ------------------ Cassville United - 100.5 In off the post - 100.5 Ram It In There! - 100.5 Rockville Gunners - 100.5 ------------------ 352 Sizzle - 100.3 BiggerBoat - 100.3 Denocmuppet - 100.3 Top Shelf - 100.3 ------------------ London St. Germain - 100.1 ThiKu Mariners FC - 100.1 ------------------ VegasVirgins - 100.0 ------------------ Dynamo Teso - 99.9 Glorydaze fC - 99.9 Pork Soda - 99.9 ------------------ ColdDogSoup FC - 99.8 Jedi Padawans FC - 99.8 Pittsadelphia FC - 99.8 ------------------ FC Touchline Ban - 99.7 Yellowcake Phantoms - 99.7 ------------------ FC St. Pauli - 99.6 Kopite Juniors - 99.6 Sasha Juniors - 99.6 ------------------ Aviators - 99.5 KeyserSoze Wanderers - 99.5 Lees Summit Rangers - 99.5 ------------------ ChrisSuttonsSlippers - 99.4 FC Springfield - 99.4 wewunwunce - 99.4 ------------------ FC Weymouth - 99.3 ------------------ blechs_dawgs - 99.1 Surreywood Rangers - 98.8
Klasnic Another red card for a Park Lane striker; unfortunately, Klasnic was wearing the armband. Keep this up and we could soon have less points than Aviators.
Re: Klasnic I just looked at the league scores through today and thought the site had made a dogs bollocks of it again when I saw you had "0" points. Not possible I said, surely he had some players starting, even if they only got a single point each. Then I saw that..... A mirror image of my season last year, every move I made was a mistake.
