The First Redcafe Sheep Draft

You lot nominate and make a list, I'll pick one in the end.
Heskey's not bad for a sheep imo.
Bebe would be funny.
Or Anto can build his midfield around Keith Andrews.

mmm to be a little nicer to antohan how about someone mediocre(in terms of a draft) and not horrible? someone like Johnny Evans or Gareth Barry?
@VivaJanuzaj Laudrup was my first choice till I chickened out minutes before Aldo announced the results. You owe me.
Quite a defensive first round. Nesta, Thuram, Rio, Lahm, Desailly, Stam... Murder on defenders!

haha I was certain he'll get picked but I had to try, one of my all time favorites!
I actually was really thinking between him Scholes and Rio.. Ended up going for him to see how it goes, funny thing is I could've got either one
Think it was quite clever to go for defenders now.
Specially with all these rumors flying around about future rounds being about scoring based criteria...
He is one of three players I definitely wanted on my team anyway, so I'm really glad I got him after all that drama

Being inaugural draft, anto should have a unique sheep!

If we're going for Irish players then surely Paul McShane or Connor Sammon?
Well it's definitely better than whoever anto is gettingHe is one of three players I definitely wanted on my team anyway, so I'm really glad I got him after all that drama
I must say, I really think anto deserves a decent sheep and not a too horrible one thanks for the laughs he and Balu gave us. I was literally laughing out loud
Some belters in there Stobz.
@VivaJanuzaj Great pick mate, well done! Winner of the first round.
I'm not telling Ade that he isn't picked.
Some really gutsy picks went through in the second pick. Balu's last minute change really screwed anto (and him as his initial was imo better than Muller). Else all but NM/sully would have passed.
Hagi was a cracking pick as well.

Best would be picking a really shitty keeper as a sheep pick. I mean one that let every damn goal in. Then you can force him to play one of those keepers if you just keep adding keepers to someones team.

Now thats one hell of a sheep!
Nah he's a PIG
But it made everyone happy, very very happy
.Imagine Connor Salmon leading the line for team Anto
Anto would have us all convinced he's a world beater, would point to his goals per game ratio in the League of Ireland.How about this one?
It is my favourite thread I think.
Heskeys probably fair. 62 caps for England so he wouldn't be doing too bad with him. Not much good havin a striker that doesn't score but
I think we should be a little more merciful, he gave us a brilliant time, we can give him a little better player.Heskeys probably fair. 62 caps for England so he wouldn't be doing too bad with him. Not much good havin a striker that doesn't score but
I suggest Gareth Barry
Djimi Traore
I suggest Mikael Silvestre.
Liam Miller!!
I thought he would be gone too.
I really really thought about Enrique. Cracking pick - glad I didn't pick him. Did you take him in the first try?
Why ballsy?
and you are a cnut. You get the best player in this round. I thought nobody would have the nuts to pick him!
Ali Dia!!
Might as well give him the tooth fairy.
He deserves it. His second bit was silly and has cost him big time.
How about - Shola Ameobi.
Right so kps isn't online to discuss how to proceed with deadlines.
Re: 24-12-12. Time zones would be a big issue in that. OR will it be? Jayvin is usually about around noon and I don't there is anyone who can't check the caf due to time zone between noon and midnight.
Other option is obviously like we thought earlier - that end the round when all have submitted.
This will mean :
1. You can't change your pick.
2. The subsequent round can start an odd hour, but will have 24 hours maximum time so everyone will be able to check anyway.
I'm leaning a bit towards the second seeing as you lot are too impatient for straight 24 hour thing.

I think the first should be 24 with ability to change picks but then 2 and 3 should be revealed when all are re submitted with a twelve hour deadline.
EDIT: Once rounds 2 and 3 submitted then you can't change those either.

looking at the list, we nearly went Vieira or Thuram in round 2, and I strongly considered Scholes for round 1. Jaap Stam is a MONSTER pick too.
