Look at it this way, Barca actually won at the Vicente Calderon I hate it when Messi gets kicked off the pitch. You'd expect him to get kicked off more often tbh

Unfortunate Freddy

Talking like I'm falling down stairs by Sparkadia

First Aid Kit from Sweden. Beautiful harmonies.

Naturally disappointed to miss out on the likes of Maradona and er, Alan Curbishley but all jesting aside, I suppose I'm satisfied. No doubting that Houllier is a marquee name and he doesn't strike me as a joy rider, which is important. Obviously we need to see the fine print, such as the contract and whether Kevin MacDonald is staying on in some capacity (I hope he does), too. Needless to say before the deal was even done I received a snooty e-mail saying "Is Biscan still playing?" Tehehe (please no). Houllier was good for Pool til he had his heart attack. Wonder if he's any good now. Watch out Big Sam, Villa is going to poach Diouf :|

Only caught the last half hour or so but I saw the goals. It looked a good game and Messi was fantastic. Batista didn't half look intimidating in the dugout though - reminded me of John Abruzzi in Prison Break. Quite the contrast from the World Cup. In his suit, Diego looked like he was auditioning for a part in Star Wars Episode VII: An Ewok Wedding. You're so right about John Abruzzi I think he's going for the Barca/Spanish style. Did well. I guess that would be expected with Cambiasso and Ever in the middle ...and Mash Potato!

Baron, I haven't seen the game (downloading now), but I hear Argentina were in control and the scoreline is very impressive. I'd like to see how Batista goes in the long run, but at least he had the common sense to include Cambiasso in the squad. Fred, how are you feeling about the Houllier appointment?

With the normal table I can reset it so that it starts counting points from week 2. As for head-2-head, I think we'll just have to make a new league I'll get around to it soon-ish... I haven't been able to even capitalise on Walcott's soaring price

Freddy storms into the lead in the H2H table. YOU COME BACK HERE FREDDY!! :persuazn: LOL @ Arry

I thought you already knew i was in it? I must've forgot But its good to see you playing! I only found out last weekend that I was up against your team in H2H

I might join in on the EPL club supporter pessimism...wait, I have a life long membership!

Berno,is that you in Fantasy? ^This was not the threesome of my imaginings... You'll have to elaborate on this head-to-head thing anyway - what does one do? It's basically EPL style. You go up against someone every week and if you beat them on points then you get 3, 1 for draw. Instead of the aggregate points table. What threesome did you have in mind? Ones that involve females? PFFFT. WAT??!!!!! The first week of my fantasy career, and I'm already getting robbed. I might as well pull a Zinedine Zidane move, and retire at the top of my career. :persuazn: All kidding aside, feel free to reset. Welcome aboard Baron. And seriously, what's the difference between the normal and H2H leagues? And also, is it strictly a premier league tournament, or are FA, Carling, and Micky Mouse cups counted as well? Difference = ^ and it's just Premier League fixtures that count so beware! Sorry to rob you eNe, maybe we'll see if you're still leading by the end of the season :evil: Good trade! Villa look solid atm. Any clues about who the next manager might be? I heard Bob Bradley is interested. Landon Donovan on loan anyone?

I bought Harewood thinking his price would rise after scoring a brace. Then I watched MOTD. FML

Sorry about the add-ons and fine print, but I guess it teaches you a lesson life: I'm annoying! We could make it a threesome if you want Baron :brows:

So, that was the first week of Fantasy...and I'm alrighty frustrated. Richards was my 3rd sub Anyway, eNe and Baron you should both join the head to head league as well! I might reset the leagues to start at Week 2 to make it fair for the new comer (sorry eNe )

Well, at least your opening few fixtures won't be too hard if your caretaker just sticks to the O'Neill model Any leads about who might be coming in? Chris Coleman perhaps?

What happened exactly? Why such poor timing?

Hurrah for Herve joining! And congrats on getting Mensah back M*. A season long loan for €500,000 ain't too bad, and if he plays more than 25 games you guys could snap him up for < €5m

Damn you sir, damn you! :persuazn:

YAY! Berno is in! and my bet is on King not being able to last a week without injury, let alone a season I've also created the Bellazon Premier League (BZPL), a head-to-head league, in case we don't have many people. We play against another team in the league every week. 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw. :lullaby: Code to join this league: 477281-132648

And yet I'm trying to pick 3 Citeh players. It's also getting really hard to pick a good squad. Gomes is my no. 1 :|

I know right! I was going to choose him so I'm deeply disappointed as well. Even though Spurs will be strong this season, there are no bargains to pick from their line-up

BEFORE YOU READ THIS POST... feel free to play the video below starting at 0:35. DO IT! ...and now for the official announcement HAHAHA Crack those Nic Cage!Here's what Michael* and Frederick had to say about last year's awesome 3 horse race...TO THE DEATH! "ummm...there were only three people in the entire league all year " - Michael* "We need more teams in the table! " - Frederick (Quotes may not represent what participants actually said) So, eNe, Baron, SS and anyone else who reads this thread on a fanatical, frequent, regular, semi-regular, occasional, rarely, "only after I catch up with all the posts in my neverending list of models" or "only when I'm bored and there's nothing else to read on BZ" -basis feel free to join now :|
