Still fairly pleased with 7th, I just hope it'll let me change my team soon.
What's your problem with the team changing then?

Nobody else has a problem.

The value of my players has gone up to £109 million, and I thought it wouldn't let me change it, but it appears that it does now.

LOL, just seen that Piscine would've beaten just about any other team except mine :D:D:D:D:D
Yea I suffered from having 4 guys that didn't play... happens when you don't follow the Premiership particularly.

Mere excuses - it doesn't take a lot to work out which players are bargains (hence I decided to bring in 2 cheap Tottenham defenders - and oh look they kept clean sheets)

As I said I don't particularly follow the Premiership, you'd have lost comfortably if those 4 had played, not that I'm too bothered about this one anyway - the official Premier League FPL one has a lot more skill involved as far as I'm concerned.

Funny how keen you were before the last 2 defeats then, isn't it?

And how do you know that if those 4 had all played that you'd have won?

Purely on clean sheets/won games/appearance I'd have won easily.

Anyway you had another lucky break the round just gone winning by 1 point... Should be easy wins for the top 5 the next round.

It's that time of the week again! Marc's flawless record is oh-so-nearly ended by Sriram's plucky Citizens Erased. Marc squeezing home by 1 point to make it 10 from 10. I manage to beat steds' Wrong Shaped ball (and top score for the round) & burkey and cometer keep the antipodean challenge going strong with another win apiece.

At the foot there's no stopping Cloete now he's opened his account, he makes it 2 on the bounce by overcoming Bugs's liverpool. Mr Wright registers his first win in an age by beating Sam Vimes's struggling Glimt XI.

Where Mourinho falters, Marc just marches on. Now 11 from 11! Another good week for the leaders with the top 7 teams all winning. Burkey top scores for the round with 172, abruptly ending Mr Wright's one match winning streak. In the "however did they think of that name?" derby Scaly Piscine's Scaly Piscine FC defeated superkingdave's, er, superkingdave.

At the bottom Sam Vimes belatedly shows some of the spirit of his Viking forebears to revive the Scandinavianianian challenge & register his 2nd win, lifting himself off the foot on points diff after Cloete's sound thrashing by cometer.

Woopedy Woop Woop Wooop!

A brilliant win, which moves me out of the "relegation zone" on more than just points difference. :D

Well it's now a dozen games in & Marc just marches on. Overcomes Cloete's lowly Andrew Athletic to keep his perfect record.

In other news Jamee springs possibly the shock of the season so far with his Foxes overcoming Scaly Piscine FC in a high scoring thriller. Steds takes advantage of this slip to move up into fifth & Hoggy inflicts only Burkey's third defeat to join SP & steds on 24 points.

Manager of the week is bugs with an impressive 175 & Bruce of the week is Sriram with exactly 100 less.
