Alls good thanks. Me granny had a couple of pubs in Rochdale. Oddly enough Mr Earnshaw lived around Mansfield and supported Bury coz he went there once and liked the town 😁
 
6 goals and 6 possible assists and I've got Solanke and Morris and only one contributuon from the pair. Standard.
I had one of those weeks where I couldn't decide who to leave on the bench - made the wrong call, 45 points scored and over 20 points lost on the bench (including Palmer's 13).

Palmer and Porro left me with 20 on the bench too, shame that wouldve put me in the top 5,000 lol. To freehit or not to freehit this week?

Thanks Fundy. Forgot about the free hit! I will be using that ...
 
Have 8 using my free tfrs, could maybe take a -4 or 2, just whether the hit is better in a double week, there again still got all my other chips to use too

I used my free hit earlier in the season when over half my squad was either injured or being investigated by Greater Manchester Police 😉

So I had a choice this week between a wildcard or taking a points hit. I’ve opted for the latter, and will save my wildcard for a double game week.

:ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Bit worried if I dont free hit I need to shoehorn it and Wildcard, Bench Boost, and Triple Captain into the last 8 weeks and working out the right options seems beyond my brain this morning so will look again tomorrow (then flip a coin haha)

Definitely not worth a wild card for this week because the teams playing you don't want to be stuck with some there players
 
England squad is out. As usual Gareth has called up nine forwards for three positions to try and please people - even though they cannot possibly all play - and distract us from the absolute :poop: in the rest of it.
 
The guy is a joke now, Ramsdale? 🤣🤣🤣

You beat me to it. How Ramsdale is in ahead of Jack Butland is an absolute mystery.

Of all the positions, surely you have to be playing regularly as a ‘keeper. I accept that Pickford will be Southgate’s first choice, obviously, but it’s a huge slap in the face to others when the manager keeps picking players who can’t get a start at club level.

At least Phillips hasn’t made the squad. That really would have been extracting the urine.
 
I'm long past moaning who the third or even second choice keeper is, I think there are far bigger problems. Defence and midfield looks threadbare. Although I would like to see Konsa given a chance.

Henderson did all that shouting in an Ajax game that @Pin-seeker showed us, so he's a shoo-in to start of course. :rolleyes:
 
But I actually think Butland could make a decent case for starting. To not even be in the squad when he’s probably playing as well as Pickford, if not better, is a bit naughty.
