....and I'll start by quoting myself from last season for the benefit of anyone who's wondering "whats all this then?!" and may want to join in!
If you don't know what it is: the game is free to play, runs in your browser - nothing to install, and only takes a couple of minutes a week to set your team up (hours of obsessing over the best defensive line-up to play strictly optional). You don't need to know anything about football either, it's never stopped me
New this season, the All out Attack chip has been pensioned off (it was useless anyway) and replaced with "Free Hit" which is basically a one-week-only wildcard - you can replace your entire team, but the next week you get your crappy old team back again. Its a bit like David Moyes dreaming he's managing Chelsea, then waking up and realising he's still in charge of Sunderland.
Vinegar shall enter the fray on the morrow :) Thanks for organising chris! Someone needs to break the Shadowfire stranglehold! Hint: it's unlikely to be me.
Normal service has resumed, Mal Zoff taking top spot, and will probably stay there till the end of the season. The Paris St Germain of the WoS league... :))
I was away for the weekend, and seem to have done OK, no idea who my caretaker manager is...
Bit of a goalfest wasn't it? Really enjoyed watching Chelsea implode vs. Burnley. Hope the rest of the season can match that and the Liverpool and Arsenal games.
Noticed Rebelstar is showing 1 gameweek transfer but 7 total transfers??? If thats a wildcard I though it masked transfers. Have you played your free hit chip?
Ah. Free hit only works for one week, then your original team gets restored, unless I'm completely misunderstanding the rules. I didn't think your team was that bad TBH, Wanyama and Lallana the only ones I'd prioritize removing.
trouble at mill! shadowfire knocked off top spot by a solid display from the icy and fearsome The Ice Fear... nothing "sub-zero" about that performance
elsewhere Rebel Army and willy's f***ing jet f***ing setters get a much needed shot in the arm from the defensive adrenaline hit that is Alonso.
but oh dear, Avalon Vinegar are finding this season a right pane in the glass, with the door to success hanging off its hinges right now...

Do you want a head-to head league this year as well or just stick with the classic?

unless any new 'horses' fancy taking part in this...errrm ...'horse race' ?
Thats today! Expect the site to be dead slow with the last-minute panic so get your teams sorted before tea-time.

may the best team (i.e. the one with the most points at the end of the season) win.

I guess I really should read the rules!
