God my goalie's crocked now......

[redman41]

Hi craft ! You will have to use your Transfer Button and take out the Players who are not earning you points as you can make up to 15 Transfers during the Group stages and a further 15 during knockout phase. I have been lucky so far as all my chosen Players have participated and I should have a further 2 playing today when Spain play Switzerland.......

[x-ray]

Good morning redman,
Well, I have used the transfer button - 7 times in fact - not that it has done me much good. My so called super stars have failed to shine.
However, it is early days yet with many more games to come, today sees the last four teams making their first appearance.
The class of football has not been much, but I think that is normal with their opening games - all the teams not so much concentrating on winning, but more importantly not to lose..

[redman41]

Hi x-ray ! Yes it's a case of trying to choose Players that will play as each Country has 23 Squad members max. It's a bit of a hit and miss at times but during the knockout stages the Transfer Button will have to work overtime as Teams get knocked out !

[toonmilo]

A steady start so far for me. 22 points. Long way to go yet. None of the big names have shone yet............but they will!

[redman41]

Haway the Lads ! :-)

[redman41]

Just had to do a last minute Transfer as Torres is not playing, David Villa will do instead......

[craft1948]

Even bloody Ronaldo let me down :-(

[redman41]

The knockout stages will be fun craft as the transfer Button will be working overtime.......

[lesblue]

So there you have it.....every side has now played one match, and the mighty SW6 is still waiting for (a) a goal (b) an assist and (c) a clean sheet. Eight miserable points and 27th out of 30 in the league. This management lark isn't as easy as it seems!!

[joggerjayne]

How am I down at 29th?

I have 2 Swiss players, and we won today !

=0(

JJ, I think the points are added at midnight on a matchday.

[x-ray]

Yes JJ - you have probably got some points from the Switzerland victory this afternoon, which is more than I got from this match. I was pinning my hopes on an overwhelming victory for Spain to get some points.
None of the favourite super stars have really scored many points - Ronaldo, Drogba, Torres, Villa, Rooney.....all paid too much money.......or is it that ball.....or is it just a ploy to prevent me doing well in the Fantasy Football League.

[lesblue]

Oh brilliant.................JJ has got 2 Swiss in her team. I'm going to drop even lower...........:-(

[redman41]

Diego Forlan with 2 Goals has propelled WBA to the top of AB Fantasy League and JJ is doing better ! lol

[joggerjayne]

Yaay !

I've just looked.

Woo Hoooo !!!

[redman41]

If Switzerland win the World Cup JJ, your BF will deserve an extra bonk on the Piste ! lol

[mightyWBA]

I'll finish 2nd...It's the law.
Have done for the last 4 years of the answerbank premier league one.Lol.

[redman41]

Come on Messi score me a hatrick so I can get to the top of this AB League ! lol

[x-ray]

I think probably everybody (including me) had Messi in their team this afternoon, but did anyone have that centre forward who got the hat-trick - how many points does that score ?
