Well... IGM I think we were nailed last GW and it was a bummer. We didn't see the heavies, nobody was in the green room, or, on cheater five. I include myself in that comment.

But hey! Fuck the dweebs and hodads. C'mon Dudes and Dudette! Let's get fucking gnarly this GW! :von:

We are IGM. We will never max out again! Fer sure.

So let's get stoked. Surfs up! :kiss:

A 69 point thrashing last week ?? :eek:
How can the differentials be so big when some key players (Kane, Austin, Ivanovic etc) feature in almost every week. Sometimes I suppose it comes down to the luck of the captain's armband lottery. Or how many Leicester players you bought in the WC transfer window :roll:

Or the skill? It will make or break yous, or mines, GW. You're learning.

I'm desperately trying to ignore your LEI/WC comment, as I've learnt that having even one LEI player in my 15-man squad is a kiss of death. They're like a virus. Bubonic plague springs to mind.

Oh dear, looks like I'm in trouble with the bosses and going to be on the receiving end of a stereo hair dryer blast !

Pearson says Leicester are well up for it :innocent:
In fairness, they did manage to keep Palace to just one goal.
Turning point?

Today's nugget from The Spacial One
It's better than a zero point-lead

0-0 is always a moral victory to the tide you're siding with.

Haha.
For all his faults, I quite like Jose.
He actually has the stones to say what all the other managers really want to.

Right. No turning back now ;D

'mon Leicester! :innocent:

Slightly (very) p!$$ed off that Giroud is on the bench.
I guess Wenger's saving him for the FA cup match then :roll:

So the dust has settled, the pencil and pen have conferred and The Man in the Hungarian Shed looked like this today.

Your scores on the doors are...

The Sisters 523 - 485 The Cure

GW25 differential: +38 The Sisters

Overall differential: +259 The Sisters

The coveted Yellow Jersey...

...is once again retained by FC Bennweg-Zeis 1921 (Johnny Rev 7.0) and is becoming quite a snug-fit. Or I'm just getting fat. :lol:

The...

...is shared between FC Bennweg-Zeis 1921 (Johnny Rev 7.0) and Simply Elegant (PaulwUK), both with a respectable 60pts in an otherwise tough GW. [s]I thought I was on for my second double of the season until I realised he'd fluked it with Koscienly's Alice band. Grrr...[/s] Well done Paul! :notworthy:

Thanks to all who participated. Thanks to all who crossed over, um... Pista.

We'll see yous all in Jo Brand look-alike land in GW26. We're coming mob-handed because...

The Gospel of markfiend, 5:9, describes the following in the country of the Cyberspace:
And He (Pista) asked him (Johnny Rev 7.0), "What is thy name?" And he answered, saying, "My name is IGM: for we are many."
Love as always. :von:

Well, not as heavy as last GW :D

We were 51 down after Tuesday, so picking up the 13 on Wednesday was pretty helpful. :)
Still gnashing my teeth at Ersey Whinger for not starting Giroud, but the Koscielny Alice band was an inspired choice.
I think our Cheesy is also cursing the fact her latest squeeze (Kane) wasn't sporting the arm warmer too.
Now a 10 day breather. Time to consider things like, do we really need Costa?
Will QPR really provide some heavy hitters?
Do Aston Vill....nah, scratch that :innocent:

Thanks again for hosting the week :notworthy: :notworthy: & see you all over at "Not only a 4 string bass, but a Fender VI too" land :D

Now where did I put that shed key?.....
