Hmmmmm...you were a bit slow this week Rosie. I had hoped you had forgotten. I’m having a mid season slump. Oh well, the Villa score saved the weekend.
After yet another international break our managers returned to find their teams appearing to be decimated with injuries but strangely come Saturday most players had made a miraculous recovery. Now not saying anything but it does make you wonder..............
CAPTAIN WATCH
8 captains on view this week with Aguero top choice with 7 votes.
1. Sterling - Only wonder manager Winnie using her tactical genius decided to trust him with the armband and he duly rewarded her with 💥32💥 jaw dropping points. Well played 👏👏👏👏👏
2. Salah - Mo delivered 16 points for Sam, Rosie, Yubby, HJ.
3. Kane - 12 points for Gornal.
4. Tie with 6 points for Piccasso’s Martial and Bongo’s Richarlison.
6. Aguero - only managed 4 points for Uncle Tony, Oz, BB, Dazzy, Nuc, States, Jesh.
7. Neves - 2 points for Iwuz.
8. Rudiger - 0 points for Liam 🥵
Obviously Iwuz’s masterplan of making Neves captain in the hope he would fill his boots against Huddersfield failed rather spectacularly the usual motivational talk falling on deaf ears.
After getting mauled by Spurs Liam’s captain Rudiger had all his points docked after letting in 3 goals plus a yellow card. I can’t recall a captain finishing on zero points before.
MANAGER OF THE WEEK AWARD 🏆
Gornal and the Claret & Blue Army strolled to the title this week, streets ahead of there nearest rival. With the aid of the Bench Boost Token Gornal amassed a monumental 💥85💥 points which also sees him secure his second award this season.
Well played Gornal. 👏👏👏👏👏
TOP 6
👉 1. Winnie’s Warriors 💥
👉 2. Mr Tee
👉 3. Ozstan Villa
👉 4. Large Icardi & Koke
👍 5. Busted Flush FC
👍 6. Billesley Villans
Winnie extends her lead over Uncle Tony to 31 points.
Oz and Sam remain 3rd and 4th respectively.
Rosie into 5th place at Picasso’s expense.
BB back with the elite in 6th place.
It’s back to the drawing board for Picasso as he plummets down to 7th after a disappointing week.
RELEGATION 🥶
15. Aston Liam
16. Aston Lilla
17. Nas T Killa
No change of order in our basement clubs.
MARE OF THE WEEK 🐴
Unlucky week 13 for Nuc which sees him secure his second mare of the season with a dismal 33 points.
TOKENS
Yubby and Gornal both played their Bench Boost Tokens.
IMPORTANT DATES FOR YOUR MANAGERIAL DIARIES
Gameweek 14 - starts Friday 30th November with Cardiff v Wolves. Make sure you hand your team sheets in by 7pm.
Gameweek 15 - is the Premier League’s first midweek fixtures starting Tuesday 4th December so make sure your team sheets are in by 6.45pm.
Gameweek 16 - I believe is the qualifying round of The Fantasy Premier League Cup so our teams need to be one of the top 4,194,304 to enter the first round draw. Possibility some teams that week will be taking on a gruelling 3 fixture challenge. League, Fantasy Premier League Cup and Bongo’s Fantasy League Cup.
Anyway over to Bongo as we eagerly await the first round draw of the Fantasy League Cup.
Hmmmmm...you were a bit slow this week Rosie. I had hoped you had forgotten. I’m having a mid season slump. Oh well, the Villa score saved the weekend.
Thanks Rosie! Yes, an epidemic of internationalinjurititus before miracle recovery always seems to mysteriously occur at international break time. I wasn't too worried about my yellow flagged players
I must admit I was nervous about captaining Sterling this week, though, as I thought he might not start/be rested, and I guessed most would be captaining Salah or Aguero, so it could have gone horribly wrong, so a big thank you to Pep (for once) and Mr Sterling himself!
Well done to Gornal! I wish I had played bench boost this week too. I groaned when I saw 21 points sitting there nicely, but completely out of reach!
Looking forward to Bongo's Cup update too. Can't wait to see who I'll be playing!
Well done Gornal and wow Winnie is nearly in the top 100.000 in the world. I do wonder what's the highest rank a villamad player has finished?
Oddly enough my highest rank was in my 1st season when I didn't know what I was doing. Now I'm good at this I've gone down hill. I'm still confident if a top 4 finish.
Top report as usual Rosie! People like you keep the board alive. However is unfortunate your going out in the next round of the cup.
Awesome Rosie. I'll echo Bongo in saying thank you for the time you give to this board.
Forgot to mention earlier but I'll be offering up another booby prize the winner.
Well done Winnie. I need to find away to knock you off
I’m the strongest player in the division !!!!
I’m propping you lot up.
My dad, the super hero strong man!
Oh you do, do you, Mr Ozfan Giggle Guts?! Too smartypants for your own good, me thinks. Hmm … who's the League's administrator? I'm going to have stiff words with her about your behaviour. I think she very much needs to take you in hand.
Oh. I'm the administrator. It will be my pleasure … A word in my office, Mr Ozfan.
What has Oz said to Pep? No walker, no David Silva and your triple captain isn't even on the bench!
