Thing is, with only 3 games a day positions will change rapidly if someone has more playing a certain day.

GIMH · 12-06-2006, 10:07 AM

i've just added my team to the cricketweb league

And I'm doing better than I am in my work league

Which leads me to conclude that office workers know more about football than Cricket fans!

LOL

Injuries messed up my original plans but my Sportal team is looking good. Rosicky will earn a few points for his performance today. Fingers crossed Henry doesn't score v. the Swiss.

The Cahill effect takes place:

# Team Manager Gam Tot
1 the 7 XI Paddy Gundry 38 38
2 Sharpe's Rifles Harry Flintoff 37 37
2 The Vic Two Blues Jack McNamara 37 37
4 Expatriot XI Sean Bennett 36 36
5 Bimetallic Frog Toss Martyn Corrin 34 34
6 AA at the WC Marc Robbins 33 33
6 Barrel Scrapers Int. Chris Raftery 33 33
8 McBride & Co Alex Crampton 32 32
8 Brentford jack firtth 32 32
10 These Animal Men Dale Brumby 31 31
11 Mind the Metatarsal! Jamee Gray 29 29
12 Tadpole is my Hero Dave Richards 28 28
13 Team Matteh mat mitchell 26 26
14 Cruyff's Rangers Donald Chapman 25 25
14 Scaly's Side Craig Beevers 25 25
16 Rubble's Rocks Matt Pitt 24 24
16 Watson's Aussies Anthony Watson 24 24
18 Goffy's Aussie Stars Brendon Goff 19 19
19 clockwork orange henry pearce 16 16

Interesting to see who still has how many players to play, 4 including a captain, plaus a manager and a sub for me.

GIMH · 13-06-2006, 01:04 AM

Bloody hell, in my league at work the leader has 64 points

That was Marc "Excuses in Early" Robbins bringing you today's update, ladies & gentlemen. & I'm sure you'll all join with me in saying how nice it is to see him in men's clothing again.

& I've got 3, but Shevchenko prob won't play anyway.

marc71178 · 13-06-2006, 08:42 AM

Not excuses, because I'm not far off the top as it stands anyway

Pedro Delgado · 13-06-2006, 09:09 AM

Bloody Norah, joint second. Won't last. I have two players left plus the manger.

cpr · 13-06-2006, 09:52 AM

Bah, hope theres transfers, just lost Vidic for the tournament......... Not impressed

Blewy · 13-06-2006, 03:49 PM

Is Anyone else in the Fox Sports Fantasy Team Competition?? Its worth $10000 and im currently running in the top 10

Great Birtannia · 13-06-2006, 04:08 PM

No. I'm regretting it now. I should just about be leading the sportal one when it updates (I had Ballack originally but then traded Ljungberg out for Schweinsteiger at the last minute grrr).

What's your team?

Blewy · 13-06-2006, 04:15 PM

My 1st Round Team was...

Cech
Terry
Puyol
Gallas
Neill
Gerrard
Kaka
Rosicky
Robben
Larsson
Klose (c)

Sub
Messi

I've just made a couple of changes though... Hopefully i can stick near the top...

Great Birtannia · 14-06-2006, 12:26 PM

Nice.

The planets must have aligned for a few other people. It is hard to think of a side much better than that.

Good luck.

marc71178 · 14-06-2006, 04:49 PM

Transfer windows are small in this game, that's for sure!
