Batten down the hatches, Granville’s wildcard is active. Having suffered an abominable Gameweek 2 mauling, the Mancunian has shuffled, tail between legs, back to the drawing board. The excuses and justification are spread thickly throughout and Granville even calms his jerky knee long enough to strike back at my decision to transfer in Eden Hazard: the cheek of the man.

The usual regulars are, of course, scattered about this nonsense, including a record breaking “All Aboard” the weekend preview and the recent failings of the ScoutCast XI.

            Yeah, I read on a grav FAQ that every site normally has a maintenance routine to clear out old data and refresh their cache. The times are different from site to site. Might just have to wait until the site refreshes or maybe someone can ask a mod nicely 🙂

    Good evening hope everyone is well!
    Maicon to Man city concerns me greatly with regard to Zabaleta. It may just be the straw/ camel's back etc. etc.

    My resolve has now officially withered, I can't see any other option other than a WC for the start of the international break. I have the following ;

    Green...will be replaced by Caesar
    Zabaleta...under major threat from Maicon
    Ireland...dropped last game and Villa look terrible
    VDV...off to Hamburg
    Defoe...will be a 20 min sub for Adebayor most weeks

    It will take me two months to sort that lot out (or a pile of hits). I've already taken 4 point hit GW2 and GW3. Terry, Ramires and Aguero injuries added to the woe of my unexpected non-starters.
    My rank is terrible.
    People (including me) advocate waiting to use the WC for a big DGW, or when your team is shagged.
    My team IS shagged.
    I'm pulling out my WC on Saturday unless one of you geniuses can come up with a better plan!
