Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! GW8 The European Edition
Welcome to the Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! GW8 The European Edition article. Another international break, another bore-fest for FPL managers everywhere. Just as we begin to build some momentum and look forward to bouncing from one weeks ecstasy to the next’s disappointment we are cruelly curtailed again. What it does allow us the chance to do though is to pause and reflect on our performance so far. Have we made the right choices, are our teams headed in the right direction, do we have plans laid out or are we basically just winging it week to week? They’re probably questions most serious FPL players ask themselves on a weekly basis and so we thought we would take this international break as a chance to actually ask those questions, and more, to some our own resident writing team. What follows is their take on their own season so far, their plans ahead and their thoughts on how things may pan out in general, as well as the usual few teasers at the end! We had six volunteers and they coincidentally, and conveniently, managed to split into two obvious groups in this the Ryder Cup season. One being European based and the other being US based. The USA contingent beat their European rivals to the punch for the 2nd time in a week and got theirs in first the other day, here’s the take on it from ‘our’ side of the pond. ‘Our pond’ 😉

Many thanks to Kop, Swirly and Tekkers. Probably a slightly more serious take on matters but hopefully just as enjoyable.
My highlight was definitely that Tekkers enjoyed Titanic because of…. THE HUGE BODY COUNT! :oogle: :say-what:
Pancho
Yeah Innit, I wonder if he realizes it’s based on a true story ?
Matt
