Thanks as always for the team news Mark, in fact cheers for everything all season *wipes tear from eye* this site is simply brilliant!
Just on captain this weekend… who’d you reckon? Ronnie or Drogba!
Thanks CK. Just putting my picks together tonight. Both Drogba and Ronaldo are in of course - tough between them but once again I think it will be Ronaldo for the play safe, Drogba for the gamble.
Mark,
At the risk of turning this into a tributes page, I ditto CK’s note of thanks above.
I’m currently sitting a tantalising 2 points from the lead in my mini-league. But irrespective of whether I am able to steal victory on the last day of the season or not, I have undoubtedly benefitted from your words of wisdom and from the well-informed postings of everyone else.
Have a good off-season all!
FPL deadline is Sunday at 11.30am so we have an extra day to ponder and scratch our heads and wonder who we will captain.
Mark,
McFadden’s now a doubt. Apparently he aggravated his knob again…
Sorry, knee.
C’est vrai???
Oui.
-> goal.com/en-us/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=689666
But apparently they’re giving him shock therapy to get him match fit.
Hmmmm, I thought that was only for the insane. Then again, McF is Scottish…
Not being an English English speaker, can you tell me what “rated doubtful” means? I assume that is less likely than “uncertain” or “questionable.”
Are we talking <50%, <75%, <?% likelihood of playing? Was considering dropping Santa for McF. If McF is dicey (and I have Drogba and Tevez already) whom would you recommend?
Cheers,

Well, I’m Dutch as you should know by now. But yankee mom and English stepdad have lead me to conclude that “rated doubtful” means he’s twisted his knob, but will get electric shocks up his arse if it means that will get him fit for the final match. Luckily the deadline isn’t until Sunday, so we might know more by then.
But I’m not sure dropping Santa for him is such a great idea anyway. Who else have you got on offer for the chop? I nice juicy midfielder perhaps?
some wank named ronaldo or essssssseeeeeennnn.
probably will stick w santa as he has stuffed me stocking (platonically) quite nicely since he joined Cynical Challenge.
time for a glass or two of wine. tomorrow? disneyland!
Well done on the site this season, Mark. Excellent effort
By the way, your team news section under Arsenal mentions Flamini off to Inter when it is of course AC Milan
