GW21 - Deadline 11.30 am Saturday 14th January

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.

The linesman gifted Man Ure their goal, that is becoming too common, it was another simple decision!
Gary Neville is so biased when he "commentates" on Man Ure games, it's nauseating! "Offside but close so doesn't matter", wanker.

Must've been watching a different match, but either way the irony of looneypool being robbed is not lost on me :lol:

All quippage and natural bias aside, I thought it was a great game. It's reassuring in this modern, sanitised, big big business football world to see United and Liverpool still going at it hammer and tongs.

Some quality scores amongst the HLers this week, it was particularly easy to guess who had Kane in their squad :notworthy:

My masterplan was a bit of a disaster, as toothless as a Tottenham title challenge. I sold Lukaku and bought Costa.

Oops. Sounds familiar mind, usually aguero doing the 'being a nob' bit for me. That said, Costa was my captain this week, cheers you angry-looking meathead. Straight swap with Kane sounds tempting, so you'd all better sell him before he fecks his cruciate getting off the team bus this weekend. Not unlike setting a field at cricket, put the fielder where the ball's just gone and it's sure to go next where he just was.

Just read the biggest pile of baba... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38661302

...to 'protect' people from what, exactly? city fans aren't that bad. Is it to keep Mourinho in line? Do you think we'll get one for the FPL? The only 'terror incident' at a UK ground was caused, allegedly, by someone doing their job really badly. Sounds like a solution to a problem that doesn't exist enough to warrant one, which remains a highly suspicious way of going about yer business.

Football eh? Bloody Hell. Anyway soz, rant over. As you were...

"significent security improvements" hopefully include training their stewards. I'll never forget the idiot who relieved me of my drugs, precribed drugs, before a game so half hour into the game I had to leave and get pissed instead. I know it's usually painful watching Arsenal anyway, but, weeks after surgery the pain is a bit more real.
Man U should forget about continually making their ground bigger and train the muppets who work there, make the away end more civilised instead of treating us like a zoo attraction - I mean, they must be used to fans from outside Manchester visiting their ground.

I'm pretty sure clubs have a liaison in place to deal with this sort of thing anyway. It's just Manc U have decided to hire their own expert &, in fairness, large sporting events are ideal targets for any would-be nutjobs to take massive casualties & even more massive press coverage.
What with UTD being a global brand, that would put them a heck of a lot higher up a hit list than...Hull for example.
& given the toilet thing & the fans that were able to hide overnight after a stadium tour, I expect someone with a suit on insisted something be done.
But, to make it so public is a bit daft I think. It's a bit like a red rag to a bull isn't it?
Cheers.

Anyone want to know what the points total was? :lol:
The Batcave has been hosting a multilingual learning experience with parents involved this week, and is a trifle shellshocked. Doppel and Snorkel have wisely kept out of the way except for meals and when footy is on the telly (aka Mr S is sitting still).
Thanks to something in the water, there were several thumpings in PL last weekend which meant a bumper crop for some of us - some fantastic scores! Those who had Kane as captain were blessed. Even if not, he did us proud. I hope not too many of you had Man City defenders? Ah well. There were plenty of other clean sheets available. At the other end, Antonio had a great week, along with Alonso and Arnautovic. Carroll's wonder goal had Geoff's cronies practically writing in ecstasy, and they know a thing or two about good goals.
Anyone fancy buying Joey Barton? Selling Payet?
The transfer window has been a bit dull - so far.
Ok, time for the tables. Progress is made, IGM, but more work to do. Debug your teams! Well done to everyone :)

The Yellow Jersey of Excellence stays with Nikolas. If this goes on, it'll be in a frame on his wall!

Image

There was a lot of competition for the Big Shout Out this week and I do have to say how very disappointed I am to have been beaten by one point. Wilgy and his Faith Rovers are the winners, and I'm not bitter. Much.

Image

And finally, the H2H. Nikolas is winning that too. Again. :lol:

Image

Now then... here's the table for the combined H2H leagues so you can see what's going on.

Over to the shed for what hopefully will be another high scoring week as players flaunt themselves in the shop window. Moving right along!

I must admit, when I first scribbled down the scores, I thought something had gone awry.
So I went out & bought a new pencil & they came out the same (albeit in 2B rather than HB).
:D
Well played everyone once again & thanks for hosting the week. :notworthy:

I'd best get on with a GW22 intro, so keep 'em peeled for a linky :D

edit: GW22 now open :D
Cheers.
