The ScoutCast – Episode 69 – Bye Bye Baby

1,206 Comments

With a stork delivery just around the corner, I drag Mark, nappies and all, into the studio for one more ScoutCast before the little time thief bundle arrives.

Keeping my distance, despite getting over the worst of my stinker that had me bed-ridden last week, I find time to lament my latest “miffed”, torment Mark about his belated sale of Victor Moses and gloat just a little about closing the mini-league gap via Clint Dempsey’s haul.

The regulars are all present and partially correct, delivered in husky tones, fuelled by Lemsip. Other cold cures are available. Other chaotic Fantasy Football podcasts aren’t.

    Anyone here getting Ba for GW23?

    If he's confirmed fit to play then I'll need to use 2 FT to get him in since I'll have 4 Newcastle players

        Rooney is 99% out of the Stoke game apparently. Didn't train all week, they say he's even a doubt for the Chelsea game.

            Indeed, and Nani. B*stards. Our injury list has been and continues to be pretty ridiculous. If SAF manages to win anything this season (unlikely) it'll be his greatest achievement imo.

              Yeah I can't see it to be honest. City are just too strong. They'll win the league. And I don't see Fergie taking the Europa league seriously.

                  Yup, after the next month if the injuries don't improve drastically i think we'll be about 6-9 points behind. It all comes down to whether City have the mentality to maintain their lead through march/april/may. Fergie will be turning the screw every week too.

      I think it depends a lot on where you in your mini leagues.

      If you're top there's no need to panic.. wait a GW or 2 and then come in for him.

    see a lot of people planning on playing 3-4-3 but having a midfield of:

    dempsey sess silva valencia bale

    with sess and valencia having poor fixtures coming up and having the headache of getting the right bench choice, I really don't understand it - am I missing something?!

    So Rooney out..hmmmmm

    Do I:
    1) Change striker i.e. rooney out - I have Augero and Abonglahour and play 343 or
    2) Change midfielder - I have Barfa/Bale/Silva/Sess/Vaughan

    3.0 in the bank
