When you look at this topic title in the board view it's truncated to "Kieron Dyer complete..." I had quite a few guesses at how that sentence might end.

Maybe for Jenas it'll be "He's behind you!"

I can understand if it's Leeds fans booing Smith or whatever, but why boo someone just because they now play for someone else? There's not been much animosity between the club and most of the players being mentioned here.

15 points from my 4 spurs and everton players, not bad. Hopefully I can regain some ground this week.

I'd say the best time to use your wildcard is about quarter of the way through the season. Use it too late and you don't get enough points out of it. By that point you can see who's getting played and who's having a good season, and your team's value will skyrocket as other managers add these form players to their squad. Worked a treat for me last year.

I've got 12 players playing this gameweek, haven't had to spend any points yet.

Deco! I choose you!

Do they have to start with a defecit of a couple of goals? Only fair I reckon.

"It's OK, I've still got Carvalho. Oh, he's conceeded 2 and got booked. Nil pwoi."

I've done utterly, utterly shit in the first game week. 16 points so far with 6 points coming off my bench. I need Ferdinand and captaion Ronaldo to work some magic here or I'm off to a rotten start. On the plus side I can field 11 players next week.

Who for?

Is that the one where you have to put the players in order of how good they are and then each team gets one, then the next team gets one, depending on where they have them ordered? I'm doing that aswell and it's fucking complicated, didn't know what I was doing to start with so have a shite order. I've ended up with Robben, so I obviously didn't go through it well enough Some of the rules are baffling: Rotisserie leagues rank each of the Teams in the League from first to last in ten (10) statistical categories (Scoring Events) - five (5) categories for goalkeepers and defenders and five (5) categories for midfielders and forwards. Points are then awarded according to the order of finish in each category, and are totalled to determine an overall score and place. So, the Team with the most Goals will receive 10 points, the Team with the second most will receive 9 points, etc. In the case of a tie, each Team involved receives an average of the total points due i.e. in the above example, if two Teams were tied for first in Goals, each would receive 9.5 points [(10 + 9) / 2 = 9.5]. Each of the 14 positions is limited to 38 matches so using multiple players in a single position in a single week reduces that number accordingly. For instance, if on Saturday you play Wayne Rooney as an Active forward, and then on Sunday you replace Rooney with Didier Drogba, that forward position for your Team will be deemed to have been played twice.

Doing The Times one as well with some mates from the pub, way more complicated than this one, what a headfuck.

Well yeah, but by half way through the season last year every one in the top ten of my pub league had him as captain, so it didn't matter if he didn't play or scored a hat-trick it made no difference.

Fair enough, but the boast of having a better team compared to the others on here will fall a bit flat when you're playing with 9 men including 2 fulham players and a Birmingham player

Difficult to say, got pissed off with Chelsea players last year because I'd go "Aha, Chelsea playing Watford, excellent. John Terry as captain, guaranteed clean sheet" only for that twat Mouriniho to rest him.

Well you are because Agger, Ooijer, Rozehnal, Fabregas and Van Persie aren't playing in the second gameweek.

I notice you've omitted your subs

Fantasy league says he is, expected back august.

That Charley in the Metro today was saying that she won't go and visit her cousin now he lives in Sunderland because there's no good looking blokes there

Amzed this thread has gone so long without someone mentioning Kevin Kyle's scalded bollocks. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/tm_objectid=16900129&method=full&siteid=94762&headline=scaldin--balls--footy-star-drops-boiling-water-in-lap-name_page.html Arca was out for a while with a jellyfish sting as well. I remember when Southampton had two very apt injuries for the same match with Peter Crouch out with a damaged knee and Micheal Poke out with a broken finger.

Makes him a good fantasy buy at only 4.5.
