Poor man's Billy Clarke.

Injuries should be later in the week. If you want to do tactics early, when you're ready post on the injuries page which will then lock the squad?

by GSC Mon 24 Feb 2014, 12:49 pm

Locking squads with 4 injuries is a bit silly.

by GSC Mon 24 Feb 2014, 12:58 pm

Not to mention locking them early for people who need to do tactics earlier is pretty unfair.

It wasn't them, it was South West. Useless.

Just noticed this. I work for a company who work for Southern under contract. We wont admit to being Southern

Despite being stood in orange trousers and jacket, with a hard hat on, I constantly get asked for train information by moronic passengers. When we're next to displays that tell them the information they need.

Good because I used to have to go to East Croydon weekly and Southern were bloody terrible too. They had a departure board that listed train times but it might as well have just said TAKE YOUR CHANCES, WE DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S GOING EITHER

by **Afro** Mon 24 Feb 2014, 1:09 pm

I like Griezmann a lot. Never really carried huge ratings in these leagues, which I actually don't understand, which has often made him an over expensive option.

But personally I really rate him.

And he aint no Snodgrass either like Olly says, so win win Ok!

by FIFA Diva Mon 24 Feb 2014, 1:14 pm

You're lucky you didn't go through Peckham aka PeckNAM you'd have been stabbed and shot by Rio Ferdinands home boys.

I rate Grizeman

by **Hero** Mon 24 Feb 2014, 1:15 pm

I had him a few leagues back and no-one rated him so had to give up on him unfortunately.

#hipstergriezmann

That never really made sense...

It's not just that he has been performing this year. He has been decent for 2 or 3 seasons. I suppose his stats have improved so maybe that is why his rating has too

by Holymiky Mon 24 Feb 2014, 1:23 pm

Alright, new question - do you rate Finnbogason?

Just to let you know, I'm not asking this to find out information on how votes will go for Lyon I'm just interested that's all.

by **Afro** Mon 24 Feb 2014, 1:27 pm

Finnbogason is alright. His goal record for Heerenveen is great, but I'm not mad on him personally.

Out of all your strikers, I like Lacazette the most

by FootballLight Mon 24 Feb 2014, 1:39 pm

Still no places? Is this the HP?

by Guest Mon 24 Feb 2014, 1:57 pm

guys are domestics open yet?

wanna start doing some deals!!

Holymiky wrote:Do you rate Antoine Griezmann from Real Sociedad?

Yes & surprisingly ppl here are now starting too. No one used to before.
Finnbogason is ok, good in the league hes in, I have doubts about if he can step up to another.
Lacazette is quality.

Injuries will be at the start of the week. Im doing them now.
Any teams that have over the squad limit based on the team page will recieve extra injuries.

Afro, can you sort fixture lists out please.

by GSC Mon 24 Feb 2014, 3:15 pm

Fixtures:

Think that works

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Mon 24 Feb 2014, 3:35 pm

Need for both leagus GSC if you can please.

by GSC Mon 24 Feb 2014, 3:43 pm

Spoiler:

by Trebs Mon 24 Feb 2014, 3:48 pm

Guys, can we get injuries sorted before gameweek 1? I think it's pointless having them if they can be circumvented using transfers. Squad depth should be forced.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Mon 24 Feb 2014, 3:51 pm

thanks gsc. ill post them on fixtures page soon

by Marky Mon 24 Feb 2014, 4:11 pm

Trebs is right, but it would be easier to cope with if it was the regular system!

by Fan Gilhaus Mon 24 Feb 2014, 4:21 pm

S'happenin

by Bianconeri Mon 24 Feb 2014, 4:36 pm

So the league is supposed to be starting this week, but there still seems to be a load of uncertainty.

Shouldn't the start be delayed until all this is decided and everyone knows what is happening.

Might be useful to have a separate section above or even a page which details out all of this stuff

by **Afro** Mon 24 Feb 2014, 4:42 pm

I spot a lurking blast from the past.

Andy, if you are reading this, show yourself!!

by GSC Mon 24 Feb 2014, 4:45 pm

Tbh we're just waiting on injuries and lawyers. TPs open tomorrow

by Bianconeri Mon 24 Feb 2014, 4:47 pm

Oh, it looked like people were discussing how injuries will work

by Marky Mon 24 Feb 2014, 4:54 pm

Bianco we just need Gregers and Zebs to confer and confirm and we'll know 100%.

by Guest Mon 24 Feb 2014, 6:04 pm

so can we do domestic deals yet then?

by Marky Mon 24 Feb 2014, 6:08 pm

We can CF, but unless you're willing to let Julio Cesar leave I'm uninterested in any deals Wink

by Guest Mon 24 Feb 2014, 6:17 pm

could do, for some cash or a replacement

by Fan Gilhaus Mon 24 Feb 2014, 6:29 pm

Parma up for offers

by Marky Mon 24 Feb 2014, 10:36 pm

Gutted. Was planning on signing Fredy Montero tomorrow as a backup striker for £4.8m when TP's opened. But he went up to £8.8m the other day Sad

by GSC Mon 24 Feb 2014, 10:40 pm

Pwned.

Can we have injuries up tomorrow. Might be last day im free till the weekend

by FIFA Diva Tue 25 Feb 2014, 9:19 am

Morning, my budget is it limited or do we get to keep whatever was left from drafts and star player? Gameweek 1 starting this Thursday? Can we buy from foreign?

by Holymiky Tue 25 Feb 2014, 9:23 am

We get to keep the budget I believe.

by sodhat Tue 25 Feb 2014, 11:02 am

How is Jimmy Jet Wash selling ZZZ?

by GSC Tue 25 Feb 2014, 11:07 am

Have you got the Jonjo Shelvey DLC yet Soddy?

by Marky Tue 25 Feb 2014, 11:10 am

Guys, its Rubber Johnny Joyride.

by GSC Tue 25 Feb 2014, 11:11 am

I downloaded jetpack joyride Zidane.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 25 Feb 2014, 11:12 am

Morning guys, sorry of rlow activity, works picking up.

Im putting injuries up now. Lawyers will be later or this evening.

How is Jimmy Jet Wash selling ZZZ?.

Its Jonny Joy Ride Soddy, its going ok tbf, better than expected.
Havent you got it yet? iOS should be this week, apple dragging their heels though so still waiting on confirmation from them.

by FIFA Diva Tue 25 Feb 2014, 11:19 am

How do releases work? I need to release some players do I get half their value?

Samsung S5 hmm not really great is it, yeah they added finger scanner and water/dustproof (which reduces quality of screen) .

by **Afro** Tue 25 Feb 2014, 11:50 am

I think Viva, you get nothing. You just free up space in your squad.

Not 100% sure though.

by sodhat Tue 25 Feb 2014, 11:55 am

I've been prescribed glasses

I found out that glasses are well expensive

by FIFA Diva Tue 25 Feb 2014, 11:56 am

That's pointless, I reckon we should have a period of a week to release players get half the value and any releases after that you get nothing.

by Marky Tue 25 Feb 2014, 12:05 pm

I had to release 16 players for nothing Viva. Such is the game.

I also signed the first TP's of the season N.E.D. Social Area - Page 11 3559488474

by Bianconeri Tue 25 Feb 2014, 12:09 pm

I'm after a right winger if anyone is selling.

Willing to part ex with one of Kaka, Quintero or Vilhena for the right deal

by Trebs Tue 25 Feb 2014, 12:10 pm

Question for you guys:

Who would your 23 be for the world cup, assuming everyone apart from Walcott is fit?
