A2K Fantasy Premier League 2020 - 21.

Hi George. Delighted to hear the sun is shining on the Stanton family, especially so on the upcoming addition.


As for the Super League, it's all your fault George.....

Well not exactly your fault, more like Americans in general.

Well not exactly all Americans, just the American owners of European soccer teams.

Most pundits are saying it was the Yanks pushing for this hoping to eventually change soccer from a team led game into a franchise led game à la NFL & Baseball.
I doubt very much if they'll give up on the idea, I'd say behind the scenes they'll keep on working away trying to make it happen.

Had to laugh at the furious reaction of FIFA & UEFA. Both claiming to do so to protect the game and the fans.
My arse, to protect their gravy train more like it.
You just have to look at where the next World Cup is taking place to get some idea how corrupt FIFA are.

Any competition that does not have relegation and promotion is pointless.

Looking into my crystal balls say 10 years down the road I see the Super league happening but with a few tweaks.
Maybe a Super league with 2 or 3 divisions.

I can see a time where for instance there is no longer a Man Utd or Southampton, instead there's the Red Devils and the Saints with no particular ties to any city.
Instead profit will decide where they play.

It's possible.

Unlikely, we feel about our Football teams the same way Americans feel about their newspapers which is why everybody hates the MK Dons.

Boris must be super-fit from hopping onto those bandwagons.

He’s not happy, lover’s tiff with Dominic.

Hopefully it will get a lot nastier.

Just posted on another thread about the wonderful moment when Robbie Savage got accidentally punched in the face by the referee.

I could watch that on a loop all day.

Impressive scoring this week by your good self euro, given that all of us were hit hard by the Man Ure-Liverpool postponement.

Thank ye kindly.
Funny though the Maniacs got off to a flyer and I thought for a minute he's going to put a stop to my run, but all worked out well in the end.

In the Classic league the Unforgiven are 190pts clear of the Mohawks and are not for catching.
The race is on for second place with the Mohawks, Riders & even the Scopy's in with a chance.

In the Head to Head league the Unforgiven are Champions being 14pts clear with a possible 12pts only left available.
Again it's a scrap between the Riders and the Mohawks for second place, only 2pts separate them.

Just 4 game weeks left to play.

Week 35 starting Fri 7th May sees the Mohawks take on the Unforgiven, the Scopy's against the Riders and the Maniacs looking to finish above Average.

Wonder what the 'C' after euro's team name signifies? I have an idea what it might be but this is a family-friendly forum.

Congrats!

Triple captain Greenwood pays off for the Riders. Could be a massive score for George this week.

Here's hoping

81 and counting.

another goal from triple-captain Greenwood. Euro -you could yet be caught at the top of the table!

140 points. Good golly Miss Molly!

George, an amazing score. Highest score I've ever seen playing this game.
Imur's right, keep this up and you could catch me in the Classic league.
I'd say you've secured second place anyway but you're still 143pts off the lead.
Again great score.

Ha, you're playing me next.

FYI. only 8 matches in the game this week.
Chelsea, Leicester, Man Utd & Arsenal are not playing.
