Note that there will not be a Sand League official transfer thread nor any need to maintain a spreadsheet or other roster record outside of the Fantasy EPL (Draft) system. I, for one, am proud to serve our new Draft Computer Overlords. Our draft occurs at 7:15 a.m. Eastern USA time, 7:15 p.m. Western Australian Time with 90 seconds per selection. We will also operate as a Head to Head league. I thank @DrHeckle for setting it all up. He's cool like that. This thread serves for discussion and commentary on the league. Also allowed is good-natured trash-talking, notable events, dreams, and lamentations.
Bring it on!! I am going to crush all your souls ! But really I have no idea these days about FPL and will likely come dead set stone motherless last. But will have fun doing so. Just FYI .. I have changed the pick times to be max 120 seconds, just to allow that little bit extra time to 2nd guess yourself before you hit that button. Remember - no salary cap restrictions
Good God In Heaven!!!! What kind of keepers did I get! Quickly... find a starting keeper for today/tomorrow... Egad! This sucks, this really sucks.
Don't hang on for any medals , with no double or triple captain or bench boost resign yourself to avoiding the -0.5
Steve Cook on my bench with 14 points arrrgh, Aguero and Silva better do something this week otherwise it will be 0-2 to start the season
Need a huge game from Pogba to have a chance this week, once again my previous week’s top performers (looking at you Aguero) forget to show up the following week. If the entire roster points counted I would be in first instead of last, welcome to fantasy sports...
My fantasy team is off to a tough start, can’t wait for the preseason to end and start the regular season
Two goals from Lacazette and one from Ramsey so far vs Fulham, another win on the cards for Arsenal and Stormin Gunners. Time for you all to start panicking now
Battle royale this week versus bigger boat. The league’s top team versus the league’s most improved team. Should be interesting...
Congrats Potomac for the RSL win in the MLS playoffs last night. Wish I could say the same for the philly Union, once again they forgot to show up in another big game just like they did in the USOC final. Their only hope is that my 3 yr old son can bolster their forwards so that they can actually score a goal. C’mon, with a total striker name like Quinn Wright Coyle how can he not? (middle name after Wrightsville beach, NC but Arsenal legend Ian Wright is impressed too). We have father/son soccer practice at the local Y every Saturday and he’s showing promise
I went to bed after the second LAFC goal. Checked my phone after brushing my teeth and WT? 2:2? Back downstairs and by the time I get the TV back on, it's 3:2 RSL? I missed most of the fun! LOL! I did stay to the end, though... 1:10 ending time for me.
Watch out top manager Chicken Tikka Mo Salah, I’ve moved into third now. Will try to make third time the charm to get a win since you won the previous two matchups against my team. But you already won the best manager name, no one in the league can top that one
