GW4 - Deadline 9th September 11.30 am

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.

Umm... can anyone remember what's going on?
Transfers happened. You all know about those? Funny, but none of the big transfer names appear in the top FPL transfers in this week, even after the internationals didn't throw up any massive injuries. Kane, Aguero and De Bruyne are the big names being dumped. Ben Woodburn doesn't get a mention, but he's not getting full games yet. Solskjaer is the king of FPL subs still, I reckon!
Lacazette is a hot tip for transfers in, but he's on the top dumped list. :eek:

The fixtures are as follows:

Saturday 9 September
MCI 12:30 LIV
ARS 15:00 BOU
BHA 15:00 WBA
EVE 15:00 TOT
LEI 15:00 CHE
SOU 15:00 WAT
STK 17:30 MUN

Sunday 10 September
BUR 13:30 CRY
SWA 16:00 NEW

Monday 11 September
WHU 20:00 HUD

Some great games - some could possibly be top four deciders. Sunday's will be very interesting too...

Oh, I saw Mourinho in Harrods last Sunday. For no real reason I was in the Fine Jewellery area and he came out of the Watch Room. He'd been in London for the Grenfell Tower charity match.
He wasn't as tall as I imagined...

Anyway. Forza IGM!
The biscuits are on me this week. I am in somewhat in need.

Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

Hard fixtures to call this week, so difficult choice for captain. Hopefully IGM will again prevail. :twisted:

Agreed, so ended up just leaving the squad as is, there's some tinkering needs doing but it requires 2 subs, one more than I have at my disposal, and it's way too early to spunk that wildcard. I tried to tranfer Xhaka (what was I thinking buying him???) for an Undead Dragon but apparenty the Game of Goths league doesn't stretch that far. Shame.

Good luck IGM :von:

This is possibly the most un-goth sentence I have ever read on HL.

Not even Lovren could screw up a back pass that badly

Good job I finally picked up some H2H points this week or I'd have been fearing Mr Parish's phonecall meself. What a berk, Yes Please to a new fancy style of football, No Thanks to it taking longer than a month to achieve that transformation from our previous identity as hard-faced cloggers. Ah well. Let's be honest, most folk here hadn't even heard of them before attending a nearby gig in 93 ;D

Quite grey now, I assume :innocent: mine got torn off mi back during a fracas at the Wapentake in Sheffield years ago, annoyingly. Does it even say Sisters on it or was it just the gig date, can't remember exactly? Cool anyway.

I also drank too much in an attempt to cleanse my ears and soul of DM's dirge, thankfully finding the coach home wasn't such an issue, it was sat in the car park going nowhere fast for many hours post-gig.
