Time is against us. We’ve less than an hour in fact before the Gameweek 36 deadline passes and our fortunes are left in the lap of the gods once more. Before we cross that white line however, there’s still precious minutes available. Time to make a difference. Time to wrestle with variables and assess likely scenarios.

The Saturday Surgery chatroom is here to assist you sorting through that mess – so pop in and quiz your fellow Fantasy Football comrades on the morning’s selection dilemma.

The Surgery will take you right through the 11.30am deadline, and will return in the form of the Dugout Discussion in time for the afternoon kick-offs.

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
