i used to love snowballs wheni was a kid. and to be honest if you really have to drink advocaat its the only possible way (n.b. mixers other than lemonade - coke-a-cola springs to mind- apart from tasting revolting produce visually intersting "curdling" efects.)

Bamford on the bench again for Palace.

Thanks a bunch Pardew!

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaagles!
'Mon the Palace!

Cap'n Kun to the rescue

i have taken a screenshot of today's league table for posterity.

And with Captain Benteke to come you're not finished yet

i know it all rests on him...

I can't believe my lot were as lame as my point tally says
Still two up later so hoping for a bit of a boost.
Might even win my H2H this week

I did the same when I was top of the league yesterday. Two Cureheids in the top three ? It's been a crazy GW but Captain Benteke can save us.

Nice one Jo.

I quietly activated my WC on Saturday having realised I got my squad selection totally wrong. They're shit, I'm shit. Major surgery is required with very sharp scalpels being brandished in a Norman Bates' stylee.

Particularly when...

The Horror.

You never know. Ritchie could be a new star.

i was contemplating using my WC all the way through the weekend, tbh, but it turned out good. this week, anyway. more tinkering to do before i play it, maybe.

Good to see that the new interpretation of the offside law is being interpretated correctly.

Coutinho was waving a leg around there I think.

go benteke!

Totally serious.

Twat answer. I guess you're pissed down the pub not even seeing the halftime analysis?

Not tonight.
At home as I want an early night (cos of constant early starts from builders & air con people).
The new interpretation's going to be a real biatch for refs.
Wind back a season & that would have been flagged instantly I think.
But it's the ref that calls them & they stand.
Shame he horsed up the Bournemouth goal though. I couldn't really see a problem there.

Even though I missed the deadline and played the same 11 as last week (leaving Joel Ward on the bench ), I've spawned a decent 41 points this week. Onward and upward!

Scored over 60 points but still lost in the head-to-head. Well done to those keeping HL at the top of the classic league.

From the Meaning of Liff: "Aboyne (vb.): To beat an expert at a game of skill by playing so appallingly that none of his clever tactics or strategies are of any use to him."

The Pen and The Pencil have confirmed for the last time. Your GW2 scores on the doors are:

IGM 512 - 462 EIB
GW2 diff: +50
OR diff: +99 IGM

The Yellow Jersey is retained by The Clash Athletic (Schmed)...



...who's certainly setting the early pace at the top of the leader board.

The Big Shout Out award...



...goes to Darkness AFC (emilystrange) with a rather splendid 73pts.

H2H:

IGM 36 - 30 EIB.

It's early doors but The Clash Athletic, Let's Go To Leyton, Darkness AFC, Blood Brothers , Team WMS and Nobby Nobbs XI are all sitting pretty at the top of the table with 100% records.

Elsewhere... I've stepped down as manager of IGM and Mav787 has agreed to step into the breach. I'm sure all of IGM will support him as much as you've supported me. Thank you for your efforts. It's been muchley appreciated. Thank you.

So now I'll hand you back over to a Man in a Shed in Hungary. Who says he's not Goff, but strangely, has a black cat.

Love as always Steve. It's been fun.
