I'm not allowed to register until Wednesday because I'm under 16.  :frantic:

 

Just lie about it then, you Doyle.  Apparently I'm 108 years old.

If I was significantly younger I would, but I've only got to wait until Wednesday ffs. I can't be arsed to make a new account when I can use my old one.

N'Zogbia is now officially a defender, thanks Sam.

 

I noticed that too :(  Fucking fat bastard trying to ruin young talent.

Ah well, if Newcastle look like defending well and Zog looks like starring at left wing, us Newcastle fans will have him in our team before others start picking up on it.

 

Fantasy Football is all luck anyway. Not an awful amount of skill involved.

True that. Still quite fun though, especially when you're doing well. Think I finished 5th on the Spurs Glory-Glory league last year, heh.

Scharner/Jagielka/Alex/Knight/Kaboul

Young/Valencia/Arteta/Anderson/McCann

Torres/Tuncay/Agbonlahor

 

Cant even remember how I did last year, stopped looking after about half the season gone.  Hopefully will stick with it to see myself receive the wooden spoon this year.

Really?  How come the same 5 people have been fighting for top spot in my pub league for the last 4 seasons?  Shouldn't the placings be random?

There is an element of luck here and there. Sendings off, pens, last minute injuries etc. But the ones who tend to come top are the ones that are always on the FF site, always checking up on their team.

Put it another way, those who finish 1st and 50th will have significantly different skill levels, but it will be luck that determines 1st and 2nd.

Same often applies to real football.
