Mr Splodge has had the best night, with 25 pts from 2 defenders. Congrats!

One more point than my entire team last week. They've set the bar - just waiting now for Edin Dzeko to go crashing into it.

I quite agree. James Collins nearly dumped Man U out of the FA cup last season with two headed goals but I doubt that's why Steve and Splodge bought him.

James Collins puts Vicks on his shirt, so obviously that makes him better equipped to see out matches.

That's why I picked him anyway. Turns out he's also good at heading and things.

Big blow for those with Man City or Sunderland players... unless your subs are good. Game's off.

No keeper for this week
Thought I'd get by with just one keeper available for a week or two, that didn't work.
No Man City players though, so that's alright.

Everton Palace off now
Wonder if Stoke or Newcastle will follow

I think it was a good week to save my free transfer

In case anyone wonders, I'm outside the gun shop now.

Van Persie doing bugger all as usual
Same as Suarez.

How many Jinxers are we allowed per squad per week again?

Seriously though Adebayor has been a Godsend in that 3rd striker spot
I never fancied Giroud or Benteke, never trusted Lukaku
Rooneys not really as tempting as he was earlier in the season.

There's few reliable points scoring strikers
I may just have to bring Sturridge back in a week or so.
Van Persie is not the answer, I think I only got him in to use up some spare money.

Couthino scores!
Chappers (the form player of February so far) has him I think
He forms a midfield trio with Lofthouse & Matthews

the joke is that Chappers has left his team so long he has players from the olden days in it it's not a great joke I know but I'm determined to turn it into a runner

We all got it, Steve.

The 2 postponements have worked in my favour. Actually had a lucky week for once. Reckon I should come in at 78 points, which might be my best yet.

Well done George

Yes it was definitely a week for having an active bench
carrying injuries wasn't ideal

I came through relatively unscathed though.
I was worried about having no Man City players but this week it was lucky.

What I wanted to have & do have is 2 free transfers for after the FA cup round
Last time I was caught on the hop a bit, what with my itchy transfer finger and all.

Damn you, wind!

Thanks, Steve.

I must admit, when I saw you hadn't made any transfers this week, I couldn't quite believe it.

Splodge top scored with only nine men!

7 players wiped out by a bit of wind! What's football coming to?

How they going to sort out the points mess then, anyone know? Not that I'm bothered obviously.

They'll get the Pool's Panel to sit so those with any players in those abandoned matches will get nothing...nothing I tells ya!

You all shat yourself when my you saw my team for game week 24. Who'd have thought Silva, Dzeko and Yaya would give you 14pts between them, over three weeks?

The previous three weeks they amassed 65pts.

Coming on top of my wildcard f**k up it's all too evil. Just feel like quitting the game, it really is not enjoyable. Especially when you see numpties like Adebayor rolling in points.

None of my subs played yesterday either. I mean how unlucky can you get?

Apart from a handful of players defences in particular have been a nightmare to predict. Ivanovic for instance did nothing for half a season (I know, I had him!) and now can't stop scoring points. Midfield has been all over the place. Erikson went hot for a while now he's dropped !!! Strikers too out of left field apart from Suarez. Rooney, Van Persie the supposed greatest double act ever have been ineffectual compared to last year.
It's not one for the purest, which is maybe why I'm doing better!

I used 1 of my free transfers
Surprised I'd resisted so long

Will definitely wait for FA cup round to finish before making any more (I hope)
