Boxing Day Dugout Discussion

With the game between Fulham and West Ham at 12pm, today’s Matchday Surgery has turned into an early Dugout Discussion. It’s essentially the same thing however, just follow this link to our chatroom for pre-deadline discussion.

I’ve no team news to bring you yet for the game at Craven Cottage, but unfortunately I do have a couple of postponements to notify you of…

  • Blackpool Vs. Liverpool – OFF

It was always going to be the most likely Premier League game to fall foul of the weather, and that has proved true. A frozen Bloomfield Road pitch is once again responsible for the postponement.

  • Everton Vs. Birmingham City – OFF

Having passed the “key test” live on Sky Sports News yesterday morning (yeah, I was watching Sky Sports News on Christmas morning), this cancellation comes as somewhat of a surprise. The reason for this game being off is “due to the adverse weather conditions in Liverpool overnight the stadium is not in a fit condition to stage a Premier League football match”, as given on the Everton website.

If any more games are called off before the Fantasy Premier League deadline, I’ll update this article and announce it in the chatroom.

Akers Richard or Akers, as he is known, has been regularly haunting this site since July 2008. He is young and foolish, take what he says with a pinch of salt. Follow them on Twitter

    A letter to Tevez.

    Thank you Argentinian Mister
    For scoring two goals
    And getting an assist
    It gave me the points.

      I can't say having him as captain saved my week. The rest of my team is too horrible for that. But he sure as hell salvaged it, at least.

      It's convenient for those of us in other time zones (or hemispheres) who are still asleep when the deadline passes, but I agree. Wish it weren't around. Or, at most, I wish you got to pick a captain, a vice captain (not based on value or form), and after that... too bad!

      VDV might not score as well as when Crouch was playing, but you're still paying 8.2 for a Spurs midfielder on penalties, with massive goal and assist potential.

      So I doubt they'll care too much.
