Locomotiv Lewisham's illegal transfer in GW 8 has yet to be corrected. Let me recap: Tom made a two player transfer dropping Pogba and Noble to pick up James and Sigurdsson. Sigurdsson was already on Blech's team. That makes the entire trade illegal. Tom should have dropped both Sigurdsson and James and reacquired Pogba and Noble after GW8 after the illegal transfer was exposed. Tom would incur excess transfer fees for this correcting transaction along with us having to manually keep track of the points he earned by his illegal players. That was 3 points for GW 8, and now, that the illegal players are still on his team, that's another 12 points to deduct for what they earned having played on GW9. This is now a total of -15 points that will have to be manually deducted from Locomotiv's total and game week scores. Tom still needs to drop these illegal players (James and Sigurdsson) from his team; reacquire Noble and Pogba, and then, if he wants, he can transfer out either or both of those players after reacquiring them. If someone else had acquired James, that would have been a legal transaction. As of the time of this post, no other Sand Manager has swooped for James. Therefore, if Tom acts fast, after dropping James and Sigurdsson, and reacquiring Pogba and Noble, he could, if he still wanted James, make another legal transaction dropping one of his mids and acquire James legally. Tom, please make these corrections quickly.
Out:- Barnes BUR FWD 6.4 Cresswell WHU DEF 4.9 In:- Maupay BRI FWD 6.0 O’Connell SHU DEF 4.5 For one hit . ( -4) Bank = 5.0
ok guys this is important is it minus 12 or minus 15 i have to deduct ,as this will either eliminate him or not this week! and if he doesnt take the hit next week he will have to be eliminated anyhow for fielding an illegitimate team ! (as we did with soccer steve)
For this week, it is -12. The other 3 were from gw8. You can use your own rules for your competition in determining that a team should be eliminated as this requires you to make manual adjustments that are a pain, but this is a different situation from what happened with soccer Steve in week 1. In any event, we are all hoping that he shows up and corrects it soon.
Hi all, Firstly, many apologies for making the illegal trade in the first place and for taking so long to realise. I confess I do not check the forum very religiously and only realised it had even happened when Kopite messaged me about it this afternoon. As soon as I got that message I corrected my team on the site accordingly (bringing back in Pogba and Noble). Apologies for causing a hassle with the penalty points which need to be deducted.
