We wish you loads of luck and plenty of fun in playing!
Happy New Year from us all at Fantasy Football 247!
Should be fun! Though I may need to brush up on my curling knowledge……
Cracking ranking there Cookster 😉
Talking to Chicken last night he’s insistent he’s gonna climb above us both
Totally discarded everyone else which mito picked on, the hit king is back with us and has immediately improved.
Done my move for next week and have my next lined up to get a couple differentials on you, with our teams being so similar it’s got to be done and chances taken to close that gap.
The way you are going I’m going to have to win the whole bloody thing to get above you LOL
Alright Gallow,
People forget we’re only halfway through the season – plenty of time for things to go pear-shaped, which I have no doubt will happen!!
Init has his wildcard which is a massive advantage for him, he’s a confident lad, always gets better after Christmas, he tells me!
Mito won’t be far away mate, as you say the hits are back and he’s all over it again!
You reckon your mate Ashley will splash the cash again this January?
No mate I don’t.
If we were struggling in the lower half yes, to protect his investment but not now we are almost mathematically safe, no chance.
Rumours of a Krul exit to Milan aren’t good, sounds about right selling not buying.
Still pissed off at yesterday, no way did Arsenal deserve a win there, what a poor goal to concede
Their fans are bloody mutes, never heard them until they scored, talk about sing when your winning?
Anyone thinking of getting Krul should hang fire just now, may be a bargain coming in the form of Elliot at just 4.4m 😉
Good to know that Gallow – though Krul would be a massive loss to you, wouldn’t he ?
Yes he would mate
He’s got a close bond with our fans so I’m hoping he has the balls to simply say no to a move.
GG since you are on here, can I ask you a question about your better half? No, not Leazes, The Mackens, have you heard when Westwood is back? And is he likely to regain his spot in the 11 over Vito? I noticed Poyet talking up Westwood’s comeback in mid December and acting like he would slot back in but after some of Vito’s performances he has been quite ready to shower praise on him. So wondering if you have heard anything?
Good battle between you two at the sharp end. Mito’s not the only one who’s made a comeback by the way. 😉 (And no I’m not talking about Foo Fighters.)
I noticed that Bryan! Once you stopped worrying about that MLS team of yours, you started to climb the rankings.
I think being berated on Twitter for my pitiful ranking had a lot to do with it! Ahem.. ‘whoever’ that was.
There’s barely nothing between our two teams. The last 2 GWs have really helped me, but yours have been stellar. Good stuff sir.
Mito
All I know about the scummers is they love Mannone
Whether that is good enough for Poyet to keep him is anyone’s guess.
I was going to get Mannone as back up to Szeszny myself but with Jags getting injured that took priority.
If Mannone keeps performing how can he be dropped?
He played most pre season games and many if us got him in as backup, ironically for me I also had Szeszny back then.
Any hits this week mate? Glad to see your your old self again and it’s working 😉
Who, Mua? Never!! That I can remember…. I am only helpful on Twitter and since Cookie is around that is what I am going with. Need this job, it pays the….well let me get back to you on that one. 😉
Nice to see you Bry
Cracking ranking in MLS mate, looking forward to doing it again in March 😉
GG a hit is possible. May do it just out of superstition, can’t mess with a good luck charm. I am worried about you though, now that you have dumped The Hobbit LilRed from your squad, I believe he was your personal good luck charm. 😉
You too Gallow. I had a crack at managing Houston Dynamo on Football Manager and got sacked after just over one season. The transfer/squad restrictions were so…. well… restrictive. Geez, March ain’t that far away at all. Scary.
Mito, hahaha. Ok, topic changed.
It’s Jai who is the pact good luck charm mito 😉
I’m tempted to take another hit myself just for the hell of it
Don’t need to but why put off today what was planned for tomorrow and all that 😉
Actually I could be forced into it, need to keep an eye on prices as ive exactly the money to sell one player to get the one I want, this is a major step in my war with Cookster 😉
I should join twitter and me and you could run a hit clinic, advisory service if you like, for a small fee of course
Gallow if we ran a hit clinic, I would have to take another identity up. Not really a problem for me, but I can’t be seen saying yes and no for the same move unless nobody knows it’s me. 😉 perhaps we could name CFC as part of the partnership? The 3 levels of hit taking, Hits like Mito ( professional ) Hits like Gallow ( Expert ) Hits like CFC ( grandmaster )
:hippo:
LMAO better still
We open a fake twitter account ( now there’s something original 😉 ) in the name of CFC? Can’t go wrong then?
I would put him in the beginners bracket of hit taking, only he would bring in Silva when he’s injured FFS
Could go all in and use Suarez as his partner in crime?
Never see Elliot on here these days, I miss the craic with the little shite.
Might have to look into this twitter malarky just to get some regular frisk with those two
Just get in there not hard to set up and the updates are useful on footy related stuff, plus a good portion of the people you know from here are on there. The fights on there can get very funny. I’ve had a go a couple of times at Monty, poor guy always ended up cussing and apologizing and cussing and apologizing etc…etc..never ending cycle with him. Just about everyone who gives it a shot ends up liking it after they finally drop the stubbornness to join. I was the same way.
Mito, they won’t in any way compare to the arguments we have as a group in emails.
Monty was particularly funny when blowing, the expletives that followed wouldn’t be appropriate in a public domain.
I miss the little shit now but he made his Bed and all that .
Might have a look at twitter, Fergie keeps telling me this has happened and that has happened and I’m curious to know more.
You seen Monty since he was sacked? He’s apparently taking it badly?
Nope have not seen him, but I will have a go at him on Twitter and see if I can draw him out. If he does come out it will get ugly. 😉
Interesting
…
Hey mate. How was your last gameweek?
And watched an Ep of Hannibal yet? If not, you’re not a true fan but an imposter. 😛
Raz – ended up with 51pts from 9 players… (9 yes)…
Yep, watched it… 😉
And? Did you like it? I’ve noticed our bond isn’t the same as it was the first few weeks. I said something you didn’t like and you’ve been mad since. Don’t hate me.
Or should I say. Don’t EAT ME!? 😛
He’s probably just realised you’re a crazy person.
That was blatent obvious from the start ”Bisto”. In all honesty I can’t think of a ”sane” or ”normal” person here. 😉
I see manic depression, compulsive liars, people with narcissistic disorder and/or compulsive disorder. I see a lot of anxiety. Shite, this place might just as well be a psychiatric hospital. 😉
working on my answers now HL – quite a bit of guesswork is going on !!!
Cookie – Rugby/Golf/Horse racing – are my weakest points
…
As 4 Everything else – you can announce me as a winner, this same instant 😉
Good on handball are you mate ?!
Handball/Tennis/Athletics …you name it…
Curling ?
God, no
…
Don’t even understand how that be be a sport discipline…
Jagielka picked up an injury and could be out for 4 weeks. >.<
Or did you guys already know? >.<
Wait that's old news. 19 hours to be exact.
Yes Raz most already know, the little orange flag tends to let the secret out 😉
Sold him last night and got another defender, it hasn’t worked out doubling Everton def anyway, will stick to Coleman in future.
Hmmm. Lukaku was dropping like crazy yesterday, -70 percent. He scores 1 goal and suddenly the drop stops. HAHA. Hilarious. 😛
Is this a coincidence or what? Conversing with myself again.
Raziel was it you that I beat up in the Banterbury league this weekend?
More like I let you win. 😉
I’m sure you did Raz
That’s what I said Fergie. Sighs, some people are so slow in here. But I guess it’s your age, you’re about 72 right? I think it’s cool that someone that could be my grandpa is playing this game, that’s all. That’s why I let 7 of my players get injured before GW19. Not cool I’m telling you this but you’ll forget it again in a minute. 😉
Lol, I just noticed that everybody apart from ”Potty” would’ve won from me this gameweek. 😉
Goodie. ^^
Cheeky git! You were out played by a better manager
The fact you have to keep repeating yourself how good you are should mean there ios a nickname change coming up in the near future. What about ”the special one” or Mou’s Henchman”? Wait I know another one, ”van Gaals Henchman”. Louis is the worst, haha.
Louis always talks about himself in the third person. I think it’s hilarious and he’s a great manager. Sort of sad he’s the manager of our national team though, sighs.
usually the best managers are narcisists and a bit crazy.
Mourinho check, Cruyff check, van Gaal check, Ferguson check, Wenger check, Michels check and the list goes on and on and on. So don’t let it bother you. Just means you are that good. 😉
Lol raziel funny guy
Sod this quiz for now….Potty needs this answering?????
How the hell do me and Samantha get off this bleeding Caravan site.
Blue Anchor in Somerset!!!
Flood water everywhere and still its raining!!
Arrrggghhhhh.
Car is fecking ruined
Pottys Predictions winners for Gameweeks 18 & 19 will be announced within my next article.
Need it so badly for this rain to stop.
Totaly trapped!!!
Potty
Bad luck in Banterbury Potty!
Beaten by a convict.
England won’t score in the worldcup. The only question I can answer. The rest of the questions are absolute ludicrous.
Another good question: Will Howard Webb shine at the Worldcup again?
So guys who is everyone going to (c) for Game Week 20 am thinking of going for SURAEZ or Walcott what do u guys think ?
I’m thinking both. Still have to figure out how though. >.<
Cardiff 0 – 3 Arsenal || Hull 3 – 1 Liverpool
Now the fixtures are reversed. Both Walcott and Syarez at home
No Özil for Arsenal, no Gerrard for Liverpool
My gut tells me Walcott, so I think I’ll have to go for him
Walcott – nailed on mate. Am hoping the vast majority go Suarez; call me crazy but Im steering clear of Suarez for next 3/4 game weeks. He ain’t going to score 40 PL goals and I need a differnential!
My thoughts Titleastic, I just can’t see Suarez / Liverpool smashing Hull comprehensively and my gut feeling is Walcott will deliver – form & fixture on his side – so I’m 95% set on Walcott (c) too this week
Yeah Hull can hold their own – got Harper, McGregor and Chester in my squad at the mo
