Purple Tentacle

Quote from: "The Boston Crab"Can I join in?

Probably not I would imagine.... a bit late.

So which fools have run out of transfers then?

Lady Beany

11 Traffic Cones cheated.  Somehow.  I refuse to believe that he can make it to the top of the league.

Yes, I am still angry at the football and he didn't help matters by goading me about it last night... and this morning.  In fact, for as long as I know him, he will continue to goad me.

Quote from: "Purple Tentacle"So which fools have run out of transfers then?

I've got six left, but I go on holiday next week, so I'll use them all up over the weekend.

Next week - watch Turkey United hurtle down the league.

So we're onto the final leg, and now's the time to use up those remaining transfers.......

I've blown it.  All my transfers are gone, and for some reason I got it into my head that Holland were playing Greece, so picked a bunch of Dutch players.  Why I thought that I don't know, because I knew full well that if England had beaten Portugal we'd have played Sweden or Holland.  France's defeat to Greece didn't help either, after drafting in Trezeguet, Henry, Zidane, Barthez, Gallas, and Thuram.  I would reckon that only twelve goals each from Baros, Nedved and Rosicky would give me any chance.

Shame, I was enjoying the challenge, and could smell victory.


Timmay

Czech Rep had better do well tonight. Raa Raa Utd now consists of the entire first team.

I'm desperate for points.

Timmay

Oh for fucks sake. I just need clean sheets from all my defenders, 2 assists from my midfield, and 7 goals a piece from all my strikers in the final now then.

All I need is for 22 players to be sent off in the final and I might cling on .

I wasn't the only one then who filled their team with Czech's yesterday.

Quote from: "Purple Tentacle"The Tentacles surge ahead, ready for the final showdown......
Your 40 points behind, it's between the top three I'm afraid.

Purple Tentacle

My team is now almost entirely Portugese, with a couple of Greeks for economy reasons.

phes

Quote from: "Peter Hammill"it's between the top three I'm afraid.

I wouldn't say that. I will certainly struggle to hold on to third place.

@ssmaster

Well that fucked up my chance of a final push. I practically had the Portugal 11 in my final team.

Well done Greece though.

phes

If my calculations are correct then I think Dr Poppers Poppadoms have nicked it at the death. Well done.

13th place for my team Bourissa Munchausen Syn.

Lord Spong

I appear to have finished last.

In my defence, I haven't made a single transfer since I first picked my team.  I'm sure if I had been paying proper attention, then I would have won this by a hefty margin.

butnut

Wow, I'm pretty chuffed with second. Well done to Dr Poppers Papadums!

I think 9th is alright considering I ran out of transfers by the quarter finals.  I was clearly too eager to make up for a poor start.

wheatgod

8th, eat my dust
i am surprised, as all of my predictions were wrong... england, france, czech republic etc
we going to do the same for the premiership season? the bbc one was a bit wank, and its being shut down apparently, so we better keep our eyes peeled
