Hi everyone - this will be our last thread of the season! The previous one is here -

http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Sport/Football/Question1545715.html

I'm still hoping for a top 10 finish but without a miracle or two, it's looking less likely as each match day passes.

I've a couple of transfers left per team but can't really see how using them would help - it seems the Universe makes a "stonewall decision" to arrange that the player put in will have a 'mare, while the one removed plays his socks off. Heigh-ho.

Best of luck to you all for the run-in to the end of the season! :-))

New thread Lie In, ta. Same here, mare of a weekend all my potential Capitos were playing on the same day and guess which ones performed best.................. Correct, the ones I didn't pick.

Hi all, don't forget that tonight's game, West Ham United v Tottenham Hotspur 20:00 KO is the first of four days consecutive fixtures in the League.

I don't want Rooney to leave these shores but if he does, I think he'll go abroad

Hi Arky & ta for the reminder, I'd forgotten tonight's game, so captains shuffled...

Hi Lie-in King, its only fair as we seem to be vying for the Tenth spot, lol. (No point playing if your gonna cheat) I posted my last post in the old thread and ballsed up the italics, I noticed It didn't appear in recent posts so chance to amend it.

That's exactly how you head a ball... you use your head

A reminder that there are 2 matches this evening & you've about 2 hrs 20 mins from the time of this post to shuffle captains etc if you wish to.

Will Chelsea qualify with ease? I think they will, but it won't be easy

Thank you for the reminder Lie-in king, I did actually forget that its a double fixture this evening

If we played like this every week, we wouldn't be so inconsistent

Morning Fantasias, just awaiting "team news" before I know if I have any options. Couldn't do much last night except have a little faith. More required today I think.

Hi all! Just over 15 minutes left to make the last changes of the season...

Good luck, hope it's a good day for us all :-)

We didn't underestimate them - they were just a lot better than we thought

Afternoon Lie In, the agony is almost over. Haha.

He has football in his blood – the disappointed scout complained. You may be right, Shanks said, but it hasn’t reached his legs yet.

Hi Lie-in King, does seem strange to see nearly a full team playing (Exceptions being my United contingent... De Gea and Ibrahimovic) as for second team, it looks so depleted like a typical 'Super Sunday' game or two.
No Bomb scare at United this season remember the two day postponement, even though it were the practice one they found.

Good Luck everyone.

Without being too harsh on David Beckham, he cost us the match Ian Wright

Hi everybody.
Well, that's it until August when we all start again.
Both my teams had a very disappointing final day and I dropped from second place down to 4th.
However my other team ended up 6th so all in all a pretty good season - my best yet.
Congratulations to Robs Robbers who has led for most of the season and ended up with a magnificent score of 2463 - a lead of 74 points.
Thanks to all and look forward to meeting you all again in August.
Many thanks to Lie-in King our League Manager

Hi all - that's it, done & dusted & congratulations to Robs Robbers for a cracking season!

A surge, thanks to Mr H Kane getting me 114 points over 2 games was most welcome & after a fairly dire season, 10th & 12th doesn't look so bad.

I should get an email (as a previous League starter) from Sky reminding me when the next melee begins & I will of course pass on all info as & when.

Thanks to all that took part, hope you had some fun :-))

Ahh well said the soul, ahh soul said the well. I never recovered from a disastrous start and ran out of transfers. The Sky Website is telling me 22d 5h 26m 3s to next game Lie In. Count me in. It has been great fun at zero cost(apart from wounded pride) :))
