[sbu_large_image] Matchday Surgery

26 December 2011 272 comments

Mark

Rouse yourself from the brandy butter haze – there’s a gameweek to deal with. With three deadlines in the next six days, this is just the start of a frenzy of activity that threatens to separate the men from the boys – our Matchday Surgery chatroom is now open to guide you through.

Despite the distractions from relatives and TV repeats, as always, our eyes have remained on the prize. We’ve delivered our player recommendations via the Scout Picks, Big Dunc has served up some Christmas Differentials and the Watchlist has been refreshed with candidates put forward for your consideration. The Captain Poll in the middle column offers a view on the armband dilemma and in just a bit, we’ll take in some air and give our final thoughts via the Preamble.

Absorb that lot, gather your thoughts and join the throngs in the Matchday Surgery.

  Why do you need to post that? People aren't going to suddenly think they need to step up their typing speed just because you post that

Is anyone planning on captaining someone who is not RVP, Rooney or Nani?
I'm thinking of taking a massive punt on Suarez.

i must be mad, am seriously considering ditching Silva to allow me to get in Adebayor and Valencia. Total gamble for next few matches, but could easily work.

Everyone in my mini league will almost certainly captain RVP. Is it sensible for me to give the armband to Rooney and make him my differential? Real money at stake here :))

Pretty unbelievable.

The present FPL leader, has only done 11 transfers till date, and still has a WC active. Thats even lower than the free 1/week. Nostradamus!
