There was a major shock in the Members Cup Fourth Round last weekend, as world number 15 and site regular Evs tasted defeat at the hand of Rodallega Bombs. His conqueror has form, though, and sits just inside the top 1500 so far this term. Elsewhere, former winner Fuzzy Dunlop is still in the mix after winning 62-54, Diz was the round’s highest scorer with 72 points earning him a place inside the top 500 overall, while Paul continues to fly the flag for the Contributors. We’re sorting out the draw for the last 32 behind the scenes and should have that with you tomorrow..

      We have the same GK combo. HVT proposed a brilliant idea earlier: go with the Ruddy-Bunn combo until the end of the season. No headaches, no fuss. Frees up even more dough.

      The only downside is a wasted transfer.

      However, it allows us to go for 3 ARS attackers instead of having Chezny as our 3rd Gunner for the DGW.

          assuming there's no chance of a norwich blank, i think the combo is very reasonable and affordable. saves you the headache of which one to play and which to bench.

          ddg is the alternative to this though.... 😕

    My devout Catholic Irish mother always advised me that the two things one should never discuss or joke about is politics and religion as it will only go wrong eventually. Her father / my grandfather was a very well respected man in the south of Ireland in the early 1900's and his name / reputation has got my cockney accented arse out of many a tricky situation when I've been pissed up in Ireland over the years and he advised her the same when she was young.

    I know this is a common saying and this is quite a serious post for which I apologise but the world would be a better place if we followed this logic..

    I also realise people are joking and that's fine but why is it always ok to joke about Christianity and no other religion.

    i'm out of here... see ya and have a good day

    Open Controls
    1. tw
      • 14 Years
      13 years, 24 days ago

      1) starts at 18:30 UK time. so that'd be 14:30 Eastern time or 2:30 pm I think? (check the time converter that ENR linked in the article below)
      2) not 100% sure on the details as ENR will be running it (as he did last year) and I wasn't around for the draw last year.

      here's the post he made explaining it: http://uefacouncil.wordpress.com/2013/02/25/ffs-uefa-live-draw-for-knockouts/

      to my knowledge what will happen is he will use some sort of a random picker or something. and he will announce the ties one at a time. it will always be a seeded team vs an unseeded team. and a team cannot draw a team from their own group, or their league. so two epl teams can't get each other, or two ROE teams, etc. and everyone who's around for the live draw will be able to chat/banter on the google doc using the chat feature.

      for the CL the draws will be made for the round of 16, and for europa draws will be made for round of 32 and round of 16.

      check the live draw and knockout stages tabs on the google docs so you can see how it will work better.

      does that make sense? any other questions?

        The veil of anonymity quite often gives people to offload their true thoughts. Therefore what you meet face-to-face might not be as they actually are. Shame is it not.

        I only post what I think as I would face-to-face because I'm comfortable with who I am and what I think.

    1) chances of cueller starting this weekend...surely MON must have learned his lesson by now
    2) if you didnt have any chel coverage,would you bring in mata? They have guaranteed and good fixtures till gw33, just not sure about rotation
    3) who would you start this week between sissoko and maloney? playing each other but wigan play @home

      On a budget = stick w/ Suarez IMO. His form and fixtures are such that he could very well match RvP.

      The extra 3 million can help immensely elsewhere.

      I'd much rather Suarez. Backwards move and waste of a transfer imho. Well aware that RVP can make a mockery of this comment but its not about him doing well it's about him doing better tha n Luis.

      I guess its better to have 2 Decent players rather than 1 RVP + 1 Shit..

      Getting rid of RVP really helped me get the Power 5 midfield.

          Ya but he said budget... that's what I keyed on. Ideal setup is Suarez AND RvP (or Roo). I've gone w/ that myself.

          I'm guessing he doesn't want to take a hit? But yes, I agree, Suarez + Utd striker is the route to go.

          His current line is Lambert Sturridge Fletcher though, with 6.7 in bank. Not sure he can stretch to Suarez + RvP w/o a third move to free up cash...
