Billy No Mates Draft

Balu's point, I think, was that the later number drafters should get first pick in the first reinforcement round to have a chance of picking a GOAT since most of the massive names would have been picked by the early drafters. Hence the alteration to Lamb only for the semifinals.
Well...I see what he's saying, but I disagree with that. However, if that's the format we'll go with, then that's fine with me.
 
Please don't. You are the manager and should be able to decide. AM's can help but waiting for AM just drags the timelines...

ffs we only started, dont see where is the rush.....its a first pick which is pretty important so we will decide about him together.
 
First 6 picks I think are pretty obvious, regardless of the restrictions. It's just the position that each manager will go for that is to be decided...
 
Also Bepo is right, the first pick here can make a huge difference so it's fair to give him time.
 
Relax guys it's first round and second pick it makes sense he'll want to take a few hours to decide. I gave my recommendation anyways.

Aye, If you are going to get a Brazilian you might as well get the best one, especially since he only played for one team in the main as well.
 
I really like him, and it may seem strange to some that I'm going for him first, but why not?

Yes. AMs can not become a hindrance. If either manager or AM are online, they must pick rather than wait it out. @Physiocrat needs to enforce this with some rule.

The rule is each drafter has up to 8 hours to pick. It could be the case that you have one quick drafter with an AM slowing him down or just a slow drafters. The result is the same. It's obviously frustrating but there's no real way the pick limit time can be any shorter than 8hrs
 
Think Bestie would nearly be my first pick in this. The amount of options he provides is vast. No one questions whatever role he plays in and there's fewer GOATs that can play wide than in attacking mid/support striker. Get him up against a weak fullback (swap his flank if required) and games won

Yeah and you don't lose much - well not much at all at NI and at United, well yes a couple of big fish are no longer yours but for a name as big as him that's very little premium.

Not sure why I was thinking he'd drop till me. :lol:

Exactly my thinking. I was kind of surprised he lasted to me.
