Noticed a slight problem...

I have Dede in my team

Fulham have Anderson Vital Da Silva in theirs.

Only problem is that Dede and Anderson Vital Da Silva are the same person!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson_Vital_da_Silva

Looking back and hold my hands up I bought Dede after Fulham did. I don't in anyway want to lose him as I reckon he's going to be quality but I understand if I have to give him up.

Hey, it was noticed a few weeks ago

I think Fulham are giving up the player anyway because they don't want him, but don't quote me on that

Hero - this happened when SG was on holiday and I was doing the TPs.

However, it was spotted last week and I took him out of the Fulham team and added the £ that you paid for him to the Fulham budget - in essence, you signed him from Fulham

does that mean we need to give hero an extra transfer pending then?

No probs, didn't want to think that I was pulling a swift one. Weirdly I was looking through the sides for a Brazillian to partner with Dede and saw his name and thought I'd check him out.

In fairness to Fulham they did pay £6.5m for Dede, I paid £6m so they should get an extra £500k back.

It's all good I think and all parties are happy.

WTF is happening to Liverpool this afternoon?

2-0

Perhaps the Kenny Dalglish honeymoon period was lasting longer than anyone thought, and now it is finally over!!

Adebayor and Parker have made a massive difference to Spurs.

3-0

3-0. Shocker from Reina, quality finish from Adebayor

If I was Spurs here I'd be looking to absolutely demolish Liverpool now. Ship as many goals past them as possible and crush their morale for the next few weeks.

Sunderland 1-0 v Stoke

I need to fine tune the 25 man squad limit rules.

I'm not happy with the current rule that you can take players in and out. How are we going to do it so that teams don't have massive squads, but can still buy and sell players?

Anyone got any bright ideas?

Torres starts against United

What's wrong with adding/removing players?

Nothing wrong with it, but I can see difficulties in getting managers to set a 25 from which to select injuries from and then tracking that 25 between injuries and tactics to ensure they don't change.

Also, in cup weeks, injuries should come from the cup team, so the 25 almost becomes obsolete.

I do wonder how well it is going to work

Maybe if you have to post your 25 every Wednesday?

Mine's simple... I have 25 players.

That's what I was thinking originally, but is that just adding an extra layer of complexity/hassle

Or we can just have trust in each other?

My is easy too. I have 26 players, but one of them is Carlos Bocanegra

I've just sorted mine

To be honest I think it'll be easy for most teams

You've seen how much Viva and Nick moan about rules etc. Everything needs to be watertight otherwise you end up answering 100 questions

4-0

WHat about cup weeks? Your two injuries come from players in your cup XI, who are also in your 25?

my cup xi will be when i use players not in the 25

There's the problem.

You injuries after cup weeks are supposed to come from your cup XI and most weeks are cup weeks, so it makes the need to name 25 on a Wednesday obsolete

Hi, guys so I moan? Hmmm

Why not scrap that cup injury rule and your injury will cone from your 25 man squad and the only way you can update your 25 man squad is when you sell from that list. So if I sign Ronaldo now he can't make my squad unless I sell one of my 25 squad players.

I don't know it's hard to track.

I don't moan about rules but consistency.

Who shops from jacamo? I think Hero does, it's a fat guys shop.

Lol.

I had a feeling if I named you, you would appear Viva!!!!!!!

If there is a loophole or weakness in something, then you or Nick will find it. Do you remember the Apprentice task when you and Nick nearly sent Azzy into a psychiatric home!!!

That is one idea Viva, although the reason for the injury rule was to give managers a choice whether to risk or rest their stars in the cup to give the smaller teams more of a chance

2-1 to United today, Rooney, Nani and Mata to score

All me and Nick what is consistency nothing else.

Yeah I remember that, me and Nick were horrible and I can't forgive myself, I'm sorry Azzy that was wrong and unfair but it was funny . But if I remember correctly I helped Gio win the thing it serves you right for not picking me.

We are gunna have to find a way to sort out the 25 man squad.

I think Chelsea will get a draw 1-1.

Match is starting bye

I had a bet on 3-1, pays at 16s

Morning.

Ashley Cole is a first class idiot that should have been a penalty but I'm not complaing as two of our goals came from offside.

Morning.

Good result for United and what an entertaining game. Great goals, missed penalties and sitters and yes, Cole should be banned for that tackle. He crosses that fine line between committed and reckless!

Being as it wasn't a penalty due to the ball being over the line at the time of the tackle raises eyebrows as to how late was the tackle then?
Can the FA act further being that Cole already received a yellow?

Morning,

Wha Gwaaan Badman G's

Almighty you git, I lost £10 as I got 14/1 (as mentioned on FB).

You've seen how much Viva and Nick moan about rules etc.

Consistancy is what we moan about. OK the Azzy thing was different, but you gotto admit it was Flip hilarious.

25 man squad. Why dont you do it like real life? I mean it is a realistic league.
Start of season we submit a 25 man squad for Europe, and for league. Domestice cup no restrictions. Players under 21 do not have top be registered.
Than injuries carry on as normal, drawn on monday after weekends matches, and after cup matches I think 1 extra should be drawn.
Use the 25 man squad to draw them, that we weekends game will have a 25 man squad + under 21's and Europen have a 25 man squad + under 21's.
Dom cup everyone in available for draw.
Also I dont think I have seem my idea from a while ago implimented (as everyone has 2 injuries every week). Add a player called "NONE" who can be drawn as I dont think its realistic that we get injuries every week. Top Prem team can play 2 matches a week and have no injuries.

Ashley Cole is a first class idiot

Guys, did anyone hear in the first half Ray Wilkins commentating say "Such a pleasant guy off the field Ashley Cole, really nice guy"
Bald Flip should urine off out of football forever with a statement like that!!

How I would do the injuries...

Have quite a few NONEs included in the draw.
But if a player’s name is drawn out then a d6 is rolled, the player is then out for that many weeks, if the d6 rolls 6 then it rolls up and keeps on going etc. There is the option to have dice rolls on the site so rolls would be legit to see.

On that note with the dice thing that could be used for the injures themselves, have a d40 (25 players squad numbers, 15 NONE) use that, first and then the d6 to show length of injury.

We have to allow for transfers in and out. If you couldn't bring players in to improve your squad during the season, managers will not do transfers and get bored of the league.

Perhaps to bring a player into the 25 during the season, you have to pick a player to remove. That player can be sold, or just left on the pile, where he will not be eligible for the 25 man squad until the following season.

Injuries is down to OTW, as he has taken over them.

Hero, I suggested 3 x "NONE" added to a squad when drawing injuries but it was thourght to be too many.

OK. Afro, I suggest we keep it at start of the season you submit a 25 man squad for league and 25 man squad of europe. dom cup has no restrictions. Your squad can be ajursted after game week 2, 4, 6 and 8. If people make a page for thir squads all they need to do is comment on it which states the changes in the relevent week, 2, 4 and so on.

Injuries are picked from these squads.
After the weekends matches ad 2 x "NONE" and pick 2 injuries from the 25 man squad.
After a european cup match add 1 x "NONE" and one injury is drawn from the 25 man squad.
After Dom Cup add 3 x "NONE" and oneinjury is drawn from the cup line up + subs (incase they come on). Reason I say add £ x "NONE" is because there will only be 11 players to draw from.
