C'mon people, type in the info of your players. Picking someone and not even bothering to write them down with almost 12 hours or more to spare?

Damn right mate - i can understand why some people didnt bother on some of the big names in the first round as everything knows they are class players but now there are starting to be some surprise names and people really need to explain their rationale

not everyone is swimming with time

poor excuse - hardly takes a few minutes to write 5/6 lines about why you picked someone.

Why do you care if others aren't being as organised as you therefore not selling their choices to people!?? :D

Some interesting one's come out in the last few days having passed the halfway point.

It's surprised me the length of time it took Hasselbaink, Waddle and in some ways David James (although people have held off on keepers in fairness) to be selected.

Boyard, you have a lovely looking midfield but your gonna be fecked when it comes to finding three more defenders and a keeper.

Sharky has the best squad right now.

I think my strike force is looking quite good. :angel:
 
Just realized I only have one (former) United player in my squad. Though that will change next pick

Pretty solid, but nothing that Sharky's defense couldn't handle. He had the right idea sorting his backfield out first, not to mention first dibs...

I know, i have to try and pull some rabbits out of the hat.

Not that that is very conceivable atm.
 
Oh, Saha...forgot about him. He was good at Fulham too. Glass legs, but a great one at it (both injury and playing)
 
so at 5pm esmufc09 can pick again ...

teams are starting to take shape now - there are already some players that I dont rate that much being picked so I cant wait to see what level of shite is picked in round 10/11 !
 
Law of Denis you bastard ! McManaman was going to complete my brilliant supply line to Klinsmann and Owen - waddle and mcmanaman would have been a quality wing combo and you ruined it :mad:
 
why the feck didnt Elvis make his pick? He was online all evening spouting shite in the General as usual - fecking muppet

pretty annoying that someone holds everything up eventhough they are online for hours

Edit: and he has no excuse of not being PMd as i sent him a reminder before going out for the evening !!

I couldn't be bothered picking last night, so I thougt I would use the 24 hour rule to my advantage.

Anyways I opted for Gudjohnsen, the guy is massively underrated IMO.

thats just plain selfish when others are waiting to pick - i can understand if some people dont come online so much but if you are online then you should make your pick asap in the interests of keeping things moving ...

not a bad pick though - wasnt always a regular starter for Chelsea but i always rated him

:rolleyes: Let him make his pick in his own time. If he doesn't then he gets skipped. End of

Some great teams so far, Erics Collar's team was my favourite until he chose the bearded Swede.
M13 Red's team looks good as well, going with some current players, although the exclusion of United players doesn't look good.

There are a couple players which I think have gone under the radar so far.

It's a problem that I'm struggling to address.
