FPL GW11: Preview, update and review (Deadline 08 Nov 11:30)

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

very confusing -16th place according to the link on my team page and 15th according to the league itself. we'll call it 15th, then. sold Dier, bought Baines of everton.
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.

Six Gooners in the England squad, my season could be ruined - Arsenal''s already is, somewhat.
Ah well, at least I get to bask in glory for an extra week.

I've only just got in from work and done the number-crunching. I'm waiting for Stevie-boy to agree the final scores, as it's very, very, very close, and then your final update will appear. Thanks for your patience and stay tuned. :von:

So, after confirmation from my learned gentleman, and I doubt we'll have a closer margin for the rest of the season...

GW11: The Sisters 574 - 572 The Cure

The Sisters sneak over the winning line by a mere 2pts! :)

Overall differential: +238pts The Sisters

Charlotte's Carnage (GOD) retain the Yellow Jersey, whilst FC Bennweg-Zeis 1921 (Johnny Rev 7.0) take the Big Shout Out award with a respectable 73pts.

Thanks to every team member of the Industrial Groove Machine for making this happen. :notworthy: Commiserations to our worthy opponents. :|

It just goes to show:

♫ Every point is sacred,
Every point is great.
If a point is wasted,
John gets quite irate. ♫

As mentioned, yet another International Break is upon us. :x

See you all on the Jo Brand lookalike forum in a couple of weeks. :von:

Top job everyone. :notworthy:
So close, but no cigar for us this week.
Right then.
I'm off to wipe down the white board in the shed....err.... training facility to work on the next squad.
Fingers crossed our snowflakes don't trip over a divot & shatter a leg or something
:wink:

See you over at the Stadium of Faith in a couple of weeks & thanks for having us :notworthy:
Cheers.

Woah!

I can remember when you guys started the season with a pencil stub. But as Steve got more active commercially and the revenues started to trickle in, you managed to invest in a whole pencil with a rubber. (No snickering at the back please.)

And now?

Hello EIB? He's now got a white board AND a fucking shed! A shed! What have yous got out of this?

I know there's the secret "Team" section over in TCC, so maybe you guys should be asking where's the money going? I know he makes you all dip your noses into soot, write a message on a piece of A4 with said sooted-nose, scan it, and then send it by email before he will even consider responding.

I'm not trying to ferment rebellion, or disharmony, within the ranks of EIB but sometimes I need to be honest, and say it the way it is. For the love of FPL.

Incidentally, one ferments alcoholic beverages but one foments rebellion. Not that it matters, but they aren't the same word.

I think we can lock this, unless anyone wants to take issue with my vocabulary nerddom?

Each point that's spilt in vain.
