    Thanks for everyone helping with my proxies today. Had a hard time with Big Soccer on my Safari on my Iphone today. Was in solid meetings checking the phone on the bathroom breaks. Yikes. Having Quansah and then Shaw picked was really that blue smoke that I should have expected all along.

    As we rolled over to another page, I'm repeating the proposal for when open the transfer window (regardless of when we finish tomorrow). So far, Hal, Lobo, Wendys, Dizzy, and myself have confirmed that this works.

    @Journeymen @tarvinodos @bobfest

    The proposal is that the transfer window will open on Wednesday at 7am (pacific), 8 am (mountain), 10 am (eastern), and 3pm (UK time).

    Ok with everyone? Does that not work for anyone?


    Thanks all! Much appreciated.....

    Good luck everyone. I'm looking fiorward to the season.

    Having said that, this pink line running under player's names is a bit jarring. I though every one of my players was injured a half hour into the season.

    Whew.

    Hope this works out. I spent many hours checking for player adds and this morning finally swooped for Evanilson F BOU 6.0.

    Let's go Brazilian! Strut your stuff and make my draft strategy pay off.

    Last year felt like I had to learn some Bruce Lee skills to win the league.

    This year so far feels like I've just been given a Haaland shaped uzi.

    I've further updated the google spreadsheet player list to delete additional players dropped from the database due to loan outs prior to the end of the transfer deadline.

    When players moved between EPL clubs, I changed their team name to the new team and sorted them correctly under their new teammates at the appropriate salary valuation.

    I keep a close watch on all the announced and gossiped moves that have yet to appear in the database.

    I'll add them to the FPL Player list once they've been added.

    When you make a transfer, you can go to the player's list and unhighlight the player you dropped and highlight the player you added with your team colors. I've done this for all the transfers so far. Thus the highlighted players should correspond to the players on your current roster.

    Hal,
    We've never done this for Small past the draft. It feels too much work for what it gets us, is likely yo ebd uo having errors, and I'm currently going to opt out.

    The sheet with squads and the sheet with the transfers are the critical pieces, and I usually keep the sorted player list current each week (and it states the date of the last sort).

    If you (and others) want to take this on, great, but I don't want to make the GDoc too much work and have what we have fall apart.

    I share this opinion, it's not something I would use either.

    No problem if others don't want to use it. It goes along with my google spreadsheet and I'll keep it up along with my spreadsheet, unless it becomes too much. The closing of the transfer window and all the loans in and out was the big workload. Now it's minor maintenance.

    Don't delete the spreadsheet on Google Docs, as I'll keep updating it.

    Good pick-up Hal, i had the surprisingly still available Duran cued ready for one click all day trying to decide if I wanted a 10 minute a match player who always scores or a starter who always looks like he is just about to do something special all match. Going to regret this one I think, heck Duran is on pace for 30 goals.
