Sunday Dugout Discussion

Filed under: Dugout Discussion - Posted by: Mark

Here we are then, the final day. Will we get a dramatic climax or will City close out the title in a cool, efficient manner? Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to soak up the reactions as the Fantasy season draws to end with the day’s ten three o’clock kick-offs.

The team news is in and available via our tweets as always. The headlines have Fernando Torres benched in a much-changed Chelsea lineup, while Sir Alex Ferguson plays silly buggers and fields Jonny Evans, 24-hours after announcing he’ll need ankle surgery in the summer. The trickster is playing us right to the end. Roberto Mancini stays cool and fields an unchanged lineup, while Mark Hughes in opposition hopes that a clash with his old side can bring out the magic in Shaun Wright-Phillips – he and Djibril Cisse look to provide the unexpected for visiting QPR.

I’ll be knocking about the chatroom throughout the ninety minutes as the curtain gradually closes on another superb Premier League season. Brace yourselves.

      Because his team secured their prem status. He was looking for his qpr team mates and thought I’d rather celebrate with my French pal.

    A bit gutted to not make the top 1k, but this is still by far my best ever FPL-season, mainly thanks to the people of FFS. Would never have imagined to finish so far into the 10k. Thank you!

      I didn’t like it at all when I first saw it, but it’s growing on me and a jersey might end up in my drawer before the next season is done. ;)

    Quick questions guys!

    A) Will Terry get all 3 BAPS?

    B) Will Vorm, Caulker or Valencia have any chance of getting a single bonus point between them?

    C) If all is equal with my rival in terms of points, how do I calculate who will be deemed winner?

    Cheers guys :)

        I’m screwed then basically, stupid way to judge it IMO. If you do more transfers you at least covered the points hit through gaining more points.
