166th now. I reckon he's hiding a DeLorean & sports almanac in his garage.
I did pretty damn awful two weeks ago. A bit more respectable last week.
I went with Ashley Cole as Captain this week
as Chelsea had two games in the gameweek.
Hoping for double cleensheetage
*Cue Southampton goal
EDIT
If I could only use these powers of prediction for good
*plans to get rid of Cole next week
EDIT
But Southampton scored two & I bought Puncheon the other day to free up some funds
So all is well again

You lot with Chelsea defenders were super lucky this week. I cheered when Terry bummed Walters for a penalty but cried when they gave it to Walters to take. Don lucked-in the most as he had two. He only bought Azpiliqueta because he was the cheapest defender who would actually play and the slasher turned out to be worth 10 points.
I see Fellaini was worth three bonus points and he did f**k all.
Without any luck and without Van Pricktease I still managed to haul 98 points which is the highest of anyone all season.
I celebrated by locking the grounds and dropping horsepiss on the supporters from a crop-sprayer.
He drives a cab and he'll take your fare
But he won't take you anywhere
Godot, Godot Godot, Godot Taxis
He sits in a pram without any toys
And he loves the sound of his own voice
Godot, Godot Godot, Godot Taxis
He likes to shout and he likes to swear
he drives a cab and he's got long hair
Godot, Godot, Godot Taxis
There's only one Godot Taxis
There's only one Godot Taxis
He's harsh but he's fair, with Jimmy Saville hair
Walking in a Godot Wonderland
98 points, Godot? That's damn good. I think my highest has been 81.
Another good week for the bone-crunching force that is Dynamo Taxis. 89 points with NO West Ham players and only ONE Arsenal tool. And I didn't even captain him. That's how to do it ladies.
I passed Steve last week and now I'm right up Don's arse. A top three finish is easily doable and will suffice for my first season. Next year I'm going to murder you in your beds.
After some iffy results in the past I'm now convinced of the utter corruption of the bonus-point awarding team. 3pts for Van Persie? Nothing to do with the fact that he's brought nothing in for two weeks and the wankers on the bonus team have got him?
Fellaini cashed in 3pts a few weeks back and did FA. On the FF website they say that they're not going to disclose all the factors that go into the awarding system - I think we know why - it's contingent rather than meritorious.
Also congratulations to Dan, who's really worked the differential this week.

Merci. Just when I thought I was out, etc etc...
Van Persie headed a ball off the line towards the end of the game. As such, it was deemed vital to the result (I guess it was as they won 1-0), hence the 3 point bonus. Rooney got a 3-point bonus as well, I notice, which is the first time I've seen two 3-point bonuses dished out to two different players. Not that I'm complaining, as I have them both.
(I should have picked Anichebe as captain, though I can't think of *any* player in the whole of fantasy league who would have picked Anichebe as captain; I was unsure whether even to put him in the team!)
Dan
Hello ladies. Having just returned from a self-imposed ban. Do you have an official league for BCG members or are you all playing in separate leagues?
Ok got it. Not sure they will transfer points over but my genius maths says with 1235 points I'm 25th-ish. Disappointing

Okay. I still think it's a stretch for three points. It didn't seal the game but Mata's goal was peachy and he got nothing.
Captaining Anichebe would've been very brave. In a way I think they need to alter the rules to reward playing with more flair and risk. I was the only player who played Remy two weeks back but what's the point in scouting players if you just get the same as if you picked Van Persie or Suarez?
At the moment you've got more chance of winning if you just sit it out each week with the same handful of players. I can't bring myself to do that. I had Ba from GW1 and Fellaini before everyone, but I sold them because I can't bring myself to not tinker each week. What's the point otherwise?
This is my first season and I'm learning all the time - last week was the first time I saved a transfer - but I may not do much better next year if I have to stick to a cadre of players along with everyone else.

Roscoff, you need to join the BCG Clique. I've pm'd you the code. The BCG league is full of knobheads who were entered automatically. They don't don't post here and they're not welcome either, with names like 'Muggin' you off' and 'Anal Leakage.' Sad men.
What's your team name?
Yossarian United. I've joined. I'm squashed between you and Steve Sunshine. I don't take it up the bum though, I'm more of a giver.
As for team names one of the boys in 'A League of Gentlemen' named his Gary Glitter's under 11's. His team is now called Change Name.
All I need is a priapic Welshman up my ass.
