as long as I'm beating Yi, I'm bloody happy

Yi-Long · Post by **Yi-Long** » 28 Oct 2004, 16:57

Yeah... I kinda made the mistake that I thought the actual managers would be just as smart as I am... but sadly, Kezman didnt get play-time, Kluivert didnt get playtime, Van Persie didnt get any playtime... etc etc...
Bastard coaches...

Ah well, Robben is fit again, Kezman scored last night, Bellamy is on his way out which means Kluivert will be playing alot more, so hopefully thinks will start to go my way now...

Well, I was let down by Nistelrooy and Rooney, of all people, and made the mistake of giving the captaincy to Rooney for a couple of matches. Ah well

They look like they might be getting back to form now, so here's hoping

the only reason I have any points at all is Henry, I think he's scored more than the entire rest of my team put together

I quite like this league though because somehow I am not bottom;)

Awww man I'm having the worst week ever.. even worse than last week

28 points so far - pathetic. :wacko:

Ooooh, when did it all go so wrong, it started off so well!!!

How the hell does Rooney miss against bloody Portsmouth!!!

And why has my team stopped scoring!!

And why do I keep transferring the WRONG DAMN PEOPLE IN!!!!!!

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 30 Oct 2004, 19:07

I may have to transfer Van Persie in now

Toge · Post by **Toge** » 30 Oct 2004, 23:39

Laev:

:D:D:whistle::smug:

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 31 Oct 2004, 07:47

Can't have Van Persie because I would have too many Arsenal players.
I swapped Young for Jaidi (sp?) last week and Carsley for Routledge (Crystal Palace) as he'd been scoring well and Carsley was suspended.
My team value is only £106.8m now tho.. :doh:

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 07 Nov 2004, 07:50

I'm having another crap week....

I'll put Sorensen in goal next week instead of Martin, methinks (why couldnt he keep a clean sheet?)
Henry scores yet we don't win, :doh: Fair play to Palace though, they could have won the game at 1 point

We have to beat Spurs next week.

Still got Bolton to play in my Fantasy Team (Jaidi - sp?), and someone to come in in place of Berger but now you have caught me up again Laev

Laevolus · Post by **Laevolus** » 07 Nov 2004, 12:15

Yeah, I finally had a decent week, thanks to Henry and Rihaltii of Palace scoring, glad I took him off the subs bench now

And I still have Rooney and Haaselbaink to play today as well, here's hoping they both do well.

And then I cna bring Nistelrooy back in.....unless Haaselbaink scorse a hat trick of course, then I may have to leave him in

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 07 Nov 2004, 12:22

I was thinking of swapping Routledge next week if he doesnt do well (he only scored 1 point this week). I was thinking of Svensson (Southhampton) but Routledge will only get me £5.9m :doh:
I wonder who I could get? I only bought Routledge as Carsley (Everton) was suspended.

I'm sure (hope?) the Arse will beat Spurs.. they (Arse) have changed a lot in the space of a few games and seem far less confident IMO
This is what makes it interesting tho - I love football!

Laevolus · Post by **Laevolus** » 07 Nov 2004, 16:01

ROONEY'S ON THE FUCKING BENCH!!!!!!

Why God, why do you torment me like this?!?!?!?

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 07 Nov 2004, 16:25

JAIDI (Bolton) was doing well for 89 mins against Boro then he concedes a goal in the last min which costs me 4 points!!!!!!!!

GRRR!

Do you think I should keep Routledge, Laev?

Laevolus · Post by **Laevolus** » 07 Nov 2004, 17:02

Hmm, I'm in a quandary now, if Rooney doesn't play at all, then Greening will come in as sub and give me 5 more points.....but I think Rooney can break the City defence and score!

And yeah, Svensson could be worth a go.

Laevolus · Post by **Laevolus** » 07 Nov 2004, 17:02

And at least I can feel safe dropping Haaselbaink for Nistelrooy.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 07 Nov 2004, 17:16

OK, thanks. I miiight have to risk dropping points or see if Routledges value goes up (or Svenssons goes down) as I have no money in the bank (but a very high team value). :doh:

I think Watson (Palace) will come on as sub for Berger and give me 2 more points - so thats 40 overall. Better than last week but not great

Laevolus · Post by **Laevolus** » 07 Nov 2004, 18:06

GOD DAMNIT!!!

That has to be one of the most frustrating games I've seen in years!!!

And I would have been better off if Rooney HADN'T played!!

Ah well, i finished on 48 points, i think, so I may have overtaken you, dude

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 07 Nov 2004, 18:19

Yeah, I think you will have - Jaidi should have done better for me - oh well

Even Routledge might do better next week, depends who Palace have.
I'll do better next week I hope.. I need Arsenal to keep clean sheets and Reyes start scoring again (Henry keeping it up as well).
Havent heard/seen the Man U game, will watch it on MOTD 2 tonight

I'm quite happy with either Martin or Sorensen as my keeper (their points total is about the same). I'd like to be able to afford Chec (Chelsea) but he's too expensive. :doh:

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 08 Nov 2004, 08:00

He he I'm still ahead Laev

Heres the GW 12 table:

# Team Manager Gam Tot

Laevolus · Post by **Laevolus** » 09 Nov 2004, 08:55

Yep, and it's a 6 point difference now, I just brought Nistelrooy back in and also dropped Pires for Lampard, so that cost me 4 points.

I think it's worth it though, Pirse isn't getting any full games at the moment and is barely scoring.

Of course, now I've done the transfer he'll go off and get a hat trick against Tottingham..................

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 09 Nov 2004, 09:08

Yeah, well Pires has 6 goals already which is pretty good, and he can make assists. Youre right though, he hasnt been as good lately.
Lampard is doing very well though

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 13 Nov 2004, 10:52

Arsenal are playing Spurs today so I hope Henry, Pires and Reyes do well

Who are Man U playing? You would think they would build on beating us but they go and lose to Pompley and draw with City!

I put Sorensen in goal for me today as he scored well last week.
