the championship is very good this year, especialy with cardiff seeminly bottling it

I guess it depends what you want from your viewing cherries. I don't watch so much lower league stuff because I prefer the quality of the top leagues regardless of the league standings.

the quality which is stoke vs west ham.

league 2 sides play better quality football than those two

Most teams in the Championship play nowadays. We're not all Allardyce clones

Viteese

in league 1 the style of football changes with location

AFCB, Swindle, Yeovil brentford play decent football, but it gets more hoofball the more nprth you do, sheff U being the worse culprits,

Hull Forest for example, both teams play up tempo passing games.

Would rather watch that than West Ham Stoke

1 Ajax 26 15 9 2 59 25 +34 54
2 PSV 26 17 2 7 81 29 +52 53
3 Feyenoord 26 16 5 5 51 32 +19 53
4 Vitesse 26 15 6 5 51 31 +20 51

they gonna win the league i tells ya

Morning.

Vettle killed his practice for the Australian GP.

Azzy, Bull signed the 3rd best RB in the world.....Mathieu Debuchy!!!!

Frankie Boyle should be banned from getting any coverage in the media. He is not funny, has made a career out of insulting people (not funny), and gives comedy a bad name. We had moved away from the Bernard Mannings of the world, but he's no better than Manning. I've never laughed at a single thing he's said.

Frankie Boyle is QUALITY!
OK he insults people, so. Look at comedians who use racial profiling to facilitate their jokes.
Family Guy insults people & its one of the most hilarious things on TV.
End of the day people find it funny because they are probably thinking it but wont say it themselves.

Bull sold Debuchy. Then paid 1m for Walker

I can't stand Family Guy. It thinks it's clever, but it's just boring. South Park is funny, The Simpsons is funny, Family Guy / The Cleveland Show / American Dad aren't.

There's a big difference between using racial profiling to facilitate jokes than simply insulting people. "I wish the Queen was dead" = not funny. That joke he made about Jordan's disabled kid = not funny. The guy has made a career out of being offensive and beardy, and we shouldn't condone it.

The guys on 8 out of 10 cats are funny for example, and don't resort to doing a Frankie Boyle to do so.

Walker is quite possibly the worst RB in the league based on form. He's so, so, so bad right now it's unreal. My father-in-law, a Spurs fan of 50+ years, says he's one of the worst RBs to ever play for the club. And he saw Pat van den Hauwe and Justin Edinburgh play!

Bull sold Debuchy. Then paid 1m for Walker

but hes the 3rd best RB in the world! Why Bull WHY!!!!

That joke he made about Jordan's disabled kid = not funny.

Sorry Azzy but i laughed at that & reckon there is more people here who did.
So do you think racial profiling to facilitate jokes is OK?

Treb's has spent a bit of time looking at the TP limit relative to the TM values and there are a number of occasions where the fortnightly increase is rendered a bit pointless.

There he has suggested the following sequences of increases...

Season 2
Week 5 - £21m
Week 7 - £22m
Week 9 - £23m
Week 11 - £24m
Week 13 - £24.5m

End of season - £26.5m

Season 3
Week 3 - £27.5m
Week 5 - £28m
Week 7 - £31m
Week 9 - £31.5m
Week 11 - £33.5m
Week 13 - £35m

Any thoughts?

simpsons stopped being funny over 10 years ago

I laugh at almost all jokes regardless of content. I really don't have a filter on my sense of humour, and I suspect one day I will get in trouble because of it.

im happy to go with that fro-jo

When is Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

This, it's run it's course now

Season 3
Week 3 - £27.5m
Week 5 - £28m
Week 7 - £31m
Week 9 - £31.5m
Week 11 - £33.5m
Week 13 - £35m

Any thoughts?

Will the league last that long? I mean a week into season 2 people started talking about a reboot.
IMO the days of having a league for 4,5,6 season are long gone. Back in the day we started with teams like Wigan etc & built them up "realistically". Due to our draft system a higher grade of players are available from the offset. The way TP Limit has increased has been good but we are at the stage now where it goes up and there is a handful of players available.

Personally id like to finish this season then, if it was agreed, start a new league, lesser teams like the wigans etc with a max limit of say £5m and build from that. Try get a 3/4 season league going again.

I'm going for Juve Bayern, Barca Dortmund, Madrid Gala and Malaga PSG

Bayern/Malaga ,Dortmund/Barca Gala/PSG Madrid/Juve

I can't stand Family Guy. It thinks it's clever, but it's just boring. South Park is funny, The Simpsons is funny, Family Guy / The Cleveland Show / American Dad aren't.

Family Guy & American Dad are great. Azzy is just bitter.
Simpsons I think its a great animation, clever was really funny. Not so funny no more. Ive got all the DVD box sets which are out so far so Im a fan. But agree it has run is course.

Actual CL Draw

Malaga vs Dortmund
Madrid vs Galatasaray
PSG vs Barcalona
Bayern vs Juventus

I got 2/4 tbf

Suppose it sets up the semis better than the quarters. Juve Bayern best tie

St Paddys day FUT tounry: Squad of 18 ROI or Northern Ireland players.

Madrid
PSG
Juventus

I think Azzy was joking was he said about the reboot. Last two time this league has run for three seasons and then rebooted. I think that is a realistic target to use to set the TP increases by. If the league finishes before then so be it, but this is about planning the increases on an assumption of 3 seasons.

That was always my opinion, but it is not really what the majority have wanted from this league. They have wanted one that is in the middle ground, not superstars and also not starting really cheap

Not worth the entry then Zebs

Yeah middle ground is better than small

I would be a fan of a draft next time around starting on a shoestring budget of say, £40m.

Thats fine Afro. The TP increases are fie. I was just saying on the instance of a reboot. If we go 3 season then cool.

Id like to start with lesser teams. Limit of 5m to draft with. One star player of 10m would be good. BUt that can be discussed at a later date when we need to.

Don't think Id really be interested in small teams. Would just join the RL for that

^ this

Can't say ive been in a league with big players thats actually required tactics yet

Do we got the players for sheep now?

Say aye

Baaa.

I fancy

Juve
Barca
Malaga
Gala

Gala will not beat Real, never ever...
Malaga are a little overrated here too. They are a good side, but I think Dortmund have the edge over them in most areas.

I like Gala to shock the world

aye

And Dortmund are vulnerable

Aye carumba (who says The Simpsons is outdated...)

GSC wrote:And Dortmund are vulnerable

Yes, but I think all their eggs are in the European basket now, and I really like them to progress over Malaga. I'm surprised that Malaga edged Porto really, but I can't see them in the Semis.

I wonder what Nacho Monreal thinks, leaves Malaga for Arsenal and misses CL football. Bit naïve if you ask me.

But Malaga aren't in the CL next season....
