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.

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.

are you saying kane and de buyne are dropped?

by FPL managers, yes

Wooohoo!
Loading up with Coutinh..... oh wait.....

Why are you covered in biscuits?

because it's first week back at school, and I need them.

ahh....had me worried there.

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

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

This is what's being given to the hacks in the Man Citeh press box

Aguero!

Nice looking "goth cake" on the right.

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

igf it's any help, i was in there to buy some makeup you can't get any where else...

Time for the traditional "Dammit Palace!"

Did you see that "back pass"?
Not even Lovren could screw up a back pass that badly

i did. more than once.

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

Quite grey now, I assume 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.

It's surprisingly dark grey
& yep. It has Sisters above the date
