Creepy, there's like a crazy delay atm...

[Cougar]

Lets get the trash talk going again kids

[Thelomen Toblerone]

Ok, in that case, let's all have a big chuckle at Villa and Citeh who got knocked out by lower league teams.

[Cougar]

League cup does not count for trash talk since it's a joke

[caladanbrood]

A joke that now means the mighty Spuds are 4 games undefeated I'll have you know! 4 whole games without losing!! Crisis? What Crisis?

[Bhurnae]

Crisis.........?? the Toon Corner is expertz............................

[Dancer+]

I only just realised this was operational. How long has everyone else known? (I am aware all the information has been carried over)

[caladanbrood]

Only like a day or two. Someone needs to post an up-to-date league table, and I can't do it

Wickan Athletic............just made me spray the screen with coffee

[Sir Thursday]

I'm really ambivalent about this Liverpool-Everton game - I've got Carragher and Arteta in my lineup, you see. I guess it doesn't matter too much if Liverpool score a goal or two...(as I type Torres just scored twice - beginning to justify his price tag?). I suppose if Carragher scores/assists and then gets subbed off before Arteta sets something up for the Toffees...not likely the way it's going though.

At the witty name I hope, rather than the hilarity inducing poor form!

I have a gin hangover. Doing the ironing watching Jeff Stelling and the boys. I know how to live!

Reina clean sheet so far! Shame I have 3 Everton players though.....

[Dancer+]

I accuse young Brood of copying my "I know the score"...we've got exactly the same predictions for everyone of today's games (perhaps minus the Arsenal game). How did that happen again, I'm suspicious.

No let's have a laugh about Hull beating the Arse .....

[caladanbrood]

Think I did quite well so far... did the Boy-ing-wa get a goal and assist or any combination thereof? Haven't checked it though...

He got a goal, though it could just as easily have been credited as an own goal and might yet get changed.


A couple of 6s from the defence, but otherwise a pretty poor day for me . Going to have to hope there are some fireworks in the matches tomorrow (read Micah Richards hattrick with assists from SWP, plus an extra special day for Campbell against Spurs).


My hot streak will most probably come to an end though (I class a hot streak as a succession of games scoring over 50)...


Sir Thursday


EDIT: Adebayor got credited with an assist for Hull's own goal! Awesome! Suddenly my score looks a little better

How did Adebayor get credited anything? It was a Walcott cross that Fabregas helped on, wasn't it?

As for the Boy... clearly wasn't an own goal, it was going in, it just hit Griffin en route, surely!

From what I saw, Walcott's cross came in, Adebayor touched it on, and then the defender knocked it in under pressure from Fabregas. Adebayor was the last Arsenal player to touch it, and I guess he did set it up for the own goal, but probably shouldn't be an assist.

As for Bozzy, the shot was going across the face of the goal - looked about 50-50 whether it was going in or not from the angle I saw it. Not much Griffin could have done about it, I suppose...

[caladanbrood]

Sneaky Adebayor!

[Dancer+]

I have absolutely no idea what's going to happen with next weekend's fixtures. Well done Broody, you're pulling away on "I know the score" and so am I

I forgot to change my captain this week At least it could have gone a lot worse, the standard of this fantasy league is quite high I can't make any ground up on people.
