If i can make just one person happy as I pass through life, my existence has not been worthless.

I think peeps who have retired from the footie predictions shouldn't be allowed to comment here, besides your mate Lazz is waiting for you to start another game of tiddlywinks
As in real life... I am semi-retired.
Quote: Billy Bunter @ 5th March 2023, 10:31 PMLast week, because of Liverpool's double gameweek, I had Salah as captain and Nunez. This week, in a panicked effort to atone for my error of using the wrong chip, I used up 8 points to transfer them out so I could get Kane & Rashford back. Kane & Rashford scored 4 points between them; Nunez & Salah (as captain) scored a total of 54 points.
Well, I also had Salah last week, and my team from last week would currently be worth 88pts with 2 to play, but the reality is if I had the same team I wouldn't have captained Salah this week and neither would you.

Not happy.
You've done pretty well I think and haven't got much to complain about! You're one of the few people who had Kane's only haul of the season against Crystal Palace and you've banked masses of points from the ultra risky strategy of having four defenders from only two teams, arguably whilst having the worst Newcastle defenders. You'll also probably get more points or close to the same points as me this week, so be happy! 😗
F**k the DGW, this week - I'm going to let it all go hang.
I've got one player - Armstrong/Southampton, and it doesn't seem any point in taking him off the bench to give him a game or two.
And knowing my luck, he'll play both games, scoring a hat- trick in both

Not flounced or deleted myself, I just don't have the dedication it requires.
Especially the super 6 as they sneak in too many mid-week contests with no warning or emails.
At least with the FPL you still have players if you miss a deadline. Super 6 = nil pwa.
So we've come back to the fold have we, and haven't done to bad so far!
I did slightly better than the worst score

I was primarily referring to Super 6 - FPL looks like a lost cause for you. 😁
Bloody Hell - Salah, Haaland or Kane for the armband, and I gave it to Harry, who scored two - well done me. 😊
Just the five goals for Haaland tonight. Arm band back on?

Not with MC not playing next week 😎
I put them down for a 1-0 tonight 😆
Me 76, with Billy on 69 and him with Dunk to play his second game in DGW, and Dunk scores him 7 points making it of course then 76 each. So what I hear you ask (OK, you didn't), but it was a tense few days in our Head to Head.

It was 76-75 when I went to bed last night. But miraculously I squeezed another point out of Dunk overnight. A good football manager never sleeps.

Or you could (or should) call him a jammy git 😛
Missed the deadline this week. Not really surprising when you consider I was coughing up blood. To be fair it wasn't much blood and apparently it's quite normal with respiratory tract infection.
Would have probably put the armband on Kane or Sake, but Toney's not terrible.
Would probably have also made a transfer, though I'm not sure I'd have gone ultra template like Anton and Radish selling Haaland and bringing in Watkins for two weeks. I really do hope Haaland gets a bagful against 'Pool. You know he can...
