I wish i knew my login name.... i want to be able to change players
At first I felt empathy for Brian not being able to get into his team to make changes.
Then, after careful reconsideration, it is probably a fair handicap since he seems to know so much more about premiership soccer than I do. This way he can't take advantage of that superior knowledge. lol
On third thought, this is probably a conspiracy by MANU fans since Brian seems to loathe them as he's blinded by Liverpool loyalty.

Well, the 1800-WorldCup.com performed reasonably well in the Euro 2004 competitions (Clanblue slipped up on Wednesday)..... now it's time to get back in focus for Premier League action.

I'm currently working with Splarg to try to get him back into his team page. One thing I tried was to temporarily suspend his team, so that I could send him a new Invite email from the League page, hoping it would include his user name or a direct link or something. Anyway, so that is why our league has only 7 members for the time being...we'll get it worked out though.

Very kind words, thanks.
I still have the lucky streak going I have to say. I just have one West Ham player (Sinclair), so I made him captain for the double game and he gets a clean sheet and scores. Very fortunate.
Shearer keeps scoring for me and Lampard showed up after I bought him and Chelsea win 3-0 away.
Now if only Stevie G. wasn't injured I would be in the top 50!! Greedy again.

..... I bring in Malbranque as captain and he misses a penalty..... at least Zola saved the day a little.

Damn, well, I guess that is the best we could do in the situation. Michel, any chance of adding a "standings" page to the Roster site, so that we could add Splarg's old points to his new team? No problem if this would be too much of a pain...

Good idea....
I'll wait until this week's games are over and get Unsuitable's points for this week.
Should I make the table so that the transfer deductions don't show?
(I guess Hal would be the main one to benefit here)
As you all wish!

Transfer deductions definitely count for the season standings...that's the fun of long term strategizing!

That's a boy..... kick Dad when he's down ;)
In which case, all we have to do at the end of this week is get Captain Splarg's old points total...... make a note of it..... and add on whatever it is to the CYKI table.

Hmmm, Enckleman just got sent off, what does a red card do for my points? Off to the site to check the rules. :(
Ok, he ends up with minus 1 today after making 4 saves earlier.
I am down to 58 points, maybe my luck is running out as I will likely sell him as a suspension is looming.

Looks like he'll earn you -1...... and get a ban..... Bennett as reserve looks useful :(
