Palace 1-1 Murray goal

No assist
TJ
Chico sent off for me, from 6 to nothing. Time to cry.
Tekno-kun (Reigning Potty's CL Comp champ, current profession: tranny, formerly wannabe Nazi commander)
Doesn’t he keep his CS though, considering that he was sent off before the goal?
jamesimmo
Tekno – this is true for substitutions – but not for red cards.
Quite fair, as usually, it’s the sent-off player’s fault the CS was lost.
TJ
From 6 to -1, doesn’t look like it. When a defender is sent off the amount of goals the opponent scores still counts.
TJ
I can’t quite believe my luck this season. The season before I was new to the game so I expected to have a bit of a rubbish ranking, but this season I’ve had badly timed last minute goals, red cards, and at least 5 wrong captaincy decisions. I could be in the top 15k. Of course it’s all down to good judgement, but a good proportion is luck and I’ve had none of it so far…I just hope some of it changes when the big DGW comes around, as I have a wildcard to use.
jamesimmo
I can sympathise with all those misplaced captaincy choices. It’s also my second season, and given the thought I’ve put in to my team this time round, a lot more’s gone wrong than I would’ve hoped. Still, over 38 weeks luck does tend to level out, so we may be in store for a positive finale…
Milk and Busquets
With that.. The chaos of GW29 is approaching.
Andy
I’ve been trying to avoid thinking about this GW 29 for a long time, haven’t a clue about what to do but I’ve got two FT’s and although he’s just bagged a brace for me today I may have to let Benteke go for Kenyne Jones and trust that Fulham will keep on conceding goals.
Milk and Busquets
Fortunate to have 2 FT’s.. I don’t know if I’d let bentekkers go though. Could be money.
Andy
I’m going to try to save my spare FT for GW 31 and chase the big points rather than use it next week as I’ve no idea where the points will come from. Can’t see many big point gaps opening up next GW though the (c) pick may be crucial.
jamesimmo
Between Haz, Lallana and Ade?
Andy
Mata ATM James, the only one I’ve got from them is Ade but I don’t like Spurs at all next week.
jamesimmo
I have Mata too andy, don’t trust United though.
HL
Been thinking of getting Olsson in this week…
Not so sure I wanna do that now :noshake:
Milk and Busquets
Haha HL, I was looking at a Stoke defender for Mertesacker.. Or doubling up on Southampton defense, even after their chaos at the hands of SAS.
HL
M&B – I have 2 non-playing dedfenders in Gabbidon & Chester…
Anyway, wanted to swap Mert 4 Olsson and possibly one of the non-playing defenders for a GW29 or DGW player…
Now, I have Eriksen not playing, too…whom I brought just this week…
Madness !!!
jamesimmo
Haha, yep, here we go… how many do y’all have then?
50 Shades of O’Shea has 7 men, soon to be 8, after Sagna —–> Ivanovic…
chins and bellies
Evening all.
Not a great week. (53).
I’ll be turning up next week with 8, although that includes Mutch, so technically it’s nearer 7.5.
Might use my FT to bring someone else in but i was planning on Chambers and that defense might see some rotation after the liverpool game so might stick as i am.
jamesimmo
59 for me I think chins. Wrong captaincy, again.
Very similar to me then as I have Noone – Cardiff are home to Fulham which is as good as it gets – but if they don’t start it means nothing!
Anyone know why Mutch and Noone didn’t play? Anyways, there’s not a lot to choose from next week, so 7.5 or 8 should be fine 😉
Who will you captain?
chins and bellies
James, i’ve got the armband on the pikey at the moment. Bit of a gamble but there’s not many choices like you say.
I’m now also toying with the idea of leaving my wildcard until later in the season. On closer inspection, i don’t think the fixtires look that good.
Milk and Busquets
James.. I’ve got 4 so far. lol
jamesimmo
Oh wow :’) if they’re quality you might be alright actually..
Milk and Busquets
Haha James, It’ll have to be a miracle! lol
Tekno-kun (Reigning Potty's CL Comp champ, current profession: tranny, formerly wannabe Nazi commander)
Horrible week for me james, only 39 points, however that’s to expect when your captain blanks and you play with a 4-2-2 formation.
jamesimmo
That’s unlucky mate, tough situation. Suárez fooled us all.
Tekno-kun (Reigning Potty's CL Comp champ, current profession: tranny, formerly wannabe Nazi commander)
I’ll have 11 next week though (assuming Eriksen and Noone plays), hopefully I’ll make up for the ground I lost today then.
Bigpopz
Tekno….
How you doing chap…
My only mission this weekend was to kick ur Butt in the ufpl …
After Going back & forth checking today’s scores, I believe it ended in a draw…a bloody DRAW…I mean with all the infinite possibilities out there in FPL land, we conspire to DRAW…FFS…,!!!
71 v 71
You happy wiv that mr Tekno Tranny…?
Tekno-kun (Reigning Potty's CL Comp champ, current profession: tranny, formerly wannabe Nazi commander)
Bigpopz
I’m not too happy with this man, I brought on Ruddy, Snoddy, Ince, and Chamakh for Adrian, Terry, Lallana, and Sturridge, and those subs cost me 7 pts. Bad coaching on my part
However, I was on 70 pts for a long time until Dawson got another point right at the end, so I can’t really complain ya know
chins and bellies
Bigpopz, i thought we had an agreement?! We were both going to give teknotranny a spanking this weekend.
I kept up my end of the bargain….
Tekno, go make me a cup of tea. Why? Cos, you is my bitch.
:hippo:
Tekno-kun (Reigning Potty's CL Comp champ, current profession: tranny, formerly wannabe Nazi commander)
Fine, chins, you won. You can use me however you want
chins and bellies
I just had a little bit of sick in my mouth.
