Suspensions

The Suspension Tightrope Returns

This evening we bring back the Scout’s Suspension Tightrope widget, which is now available in your right sidebars under the Watchlist rankings.

For those of you less familiar with these pages, the tightrope offers a window into the more nefarious antics of the Premier League and the impact these indiscretions may have upon our Fantasy form. Cards are counted up from League Cup, FA cup and Premier League matches and the table is updated after each Gameweek – we’ll aim to share the Fantasy implications of the latest yellows and reds dished out by referees as we go.

We’ll bring you news of all the suspensions to blight our game, along with a regular update of the yellow card totals of the most heinous perpetrators as they approach the precipice of a ban and mount the ‘Suspension Tightrope’.

At present, there is just one player currently teetering on the brink of a one-match ban. Arsenal’s Mathieu Flamini is the man in question, after picking up his fourth caution of the season in the Gunners’ draw against West Brom on Sunday afternoon – the Frenchman has now been booked in four of his five league appearances since returning to the Emirates this summer.

Given Flamini’s propensity for picking up yellows, he looks highly likely to be facing suspension soon – essentially, he has to avoid incurring the referee’s wrath up to and including December 31, when the card quota is then extended to 10.

Plenty of others currently sit on three yellows, with just a couple more cautions set to trigger a ban. Amongst the most notable in Fantasy terms, the list includes Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic, who is owned by 30% of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers, whilst cut-price midfielder Ross Barkley and Ravel Morrison are also in the mix, along with the likes of Craig Gardner, Jon Walters and Marouane Chamakh.

Fernando Torres and Lucas are now both available after each served a one-match suspension in the previous Gameweek. Torres is still sidelined with a knee injury, though, while his former Liverpool team-mate is expected to return to the fold as Brendan Rodgers takes his team to Tyneside to face Newcastle next time around.

        I got a few offers, but for now I'm keeping my options open. Honestly speaking, I am kinda leaning towards being neutral, as I feel at least one organiser should be neutral. And since it's only the two of us..........I could change my mind at the drop of a hat, so don't be surprised to see me in tight shorts on the beach. 🙂

      Last night, it looked like USA had completely fecked up, and in one morning Fratboy recruited an entire 11 though I am not sure I even know all of them though.

      You know, I almost recruited a few for Fratboy without his permission, thinking that he needed help. Man, it would have been awkward, had they accepted.

              There was one game that Tiendelli replaced Rangel, but if I was more confident that this wouldn't happen again, I would most def splash the extra 0.4 or 0.5 for the extra goal threat of Rangel

      HBA needs to go under a certain degree of urgency. Barkly, Januzaj, Paulinho, Ramsey, Amalfitano should all come into consideration. I'd be tempted to take your chances on Januzaj. Try and be early on the next potential mega bandwagon.

      Pablo should be back - keep
      Ozil - keep
      Whitt - keep
      Eriksen - keep as long as he's starting unless there's a better idea and you have money (Michu, Lamela, Oscar, Hazard & Walcott come to mind)
      HBA - get rid (replace with Amalfitano or Barkley I think)

      Think double Swansea midfield could be good for their run of fixtures

      Would hold off on doing anything about your defense until after the int'l break when you have a week that you don't need to use an FT on your front 8

    Apologies for the re-post, I haven't logged on for 2 days now.

    24 points, good for this GW?

    Don't shoot me down straight away. I ALWAYS come on here when I've had a bad GW too. I hate those guys that just turn up with their 24 point haul and brag about it.. giving no advice or sensible input whatsoever.

    So, to be clear.. 24 points with seven non-starters.. above average, or not?

    CMON, CMON lavish me with praise. Do it and do it NOW
