HorusFM Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Welcome to Gav Renwick's Football Manager Fantasy Football Challenge, a challenge for all to get involved in. The premise of this is to take the Fantasy Football idea and incorporate it into a season of Football Manager 2010. The premise is exactly the same as the game played by most on the Premier League's website, but here are the base rules once more. SQUAD SELECTION: 2 Goalkeepers 5 Defenders 5 Midfielders 3 Strikers You may only choose three players from any one club, and you will have £110million to do this with. When you pick your squad, choose your formation and your starting eleven. Only the following formations are allowed; 4-4-2, 4-5-1, 4-3-3, 5-3-2 When you send your squad lists to me, please state who you would like chosen as your captain. Captain brings in double points for whatever he earns. If your captain doesn't play, the highest value player automatically takes the role. You cannot make any transfers during the season, your fifteen players are there for the long haul. ************************* (if player is in red, it means he has an injury and won't be available for the first game.) Goalkeepers; Manuel ALMUNIA - £5mil Vito MANNONE - £4mil Lukasz FABIANSKI - £4mil Brad FRIEDEL - £5mil Brad GUZAN – £4mil Andy MARSHALL – £1mil Joe HART - £10mil Colin DOYLE - £4mil Maik TAYLOR - £2mil Paul ROBINSON - £7mil Jason BROWN - £4mil Thomas MYHRE - £4mil Jussi JAASKELAINEN - £6mil Ali AL-HABSI - £4mil Adam BOGDAN - £1mil Brian JENSEN - £4mil Diego PENNY - £4mil Nicky WEAVER – £1mil Petr CECH - £11mil HILARIO - £4mil Ross TURNBULL - £4mil Alex SMITHIES - £1mil Tim HOWARD - £8mil Carlo NASH - £4mil Iain TURNER - £4mil Mark SCHWARZER - £5mil David STOCKDALE - £4mil Pascal ZUBERBUHLER - £1mil Boaz MYHILL – £6mil Matt DUKE - £4mil Jose Manuel REINA - £11mil Diego CAVALIERI - £5mil Peter GULACSI - £1mil Shay GIVEN - £7mil Jurgen MACHO - £4mil Stuart TAYLOR - £1mil Edwin VAN DER SAR - £9mil Ben FOSTER - £5mil Tomasz KUSZCZAK - £4mil Zacharie BOUCHER - £1mil David JAMES - £6mil Jamie ASHDOWN - £3mil Antti NIEMI - £1mil Thomas SORENSEN - £5mil Asmir BEGOVIC - £4mil Steve SIMONSEN - £2mil Craig GORDON - £8mil Marton FULOP - £3mil Trevor CARSON - £1mil GOMES - £8mil Carlo CUDICINI - £2mil Jimmy WALKER - £1mil Robert GREEN - £7mil Peter KRUCZ - £1mil Marek STECH – £1mil Chris KIRKLAND - £5mil Mike POLLITT - £2mil Vladimir STOJKOVIC - £2mil Richard KINGSON - £2mil Marcus HAHNEMANN - £5mil Wayne HENNESSEY – £5m Matt MURRAY - £2mil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HorusFM Posted November 24, 2010 Author Share Posted November 24, 2010 FMS Fantasy League Week 1 Birmingham City 1 – 1 Hull City Blackburn Rovers 0 – 1 Sunderland Everton 1 – 1 Chelsea Fulham 0 – 3 Liverpool Manchester City 0 – 2 Arsenal Portsmouth 0 – 1 Manchester United Stoke City 2 – 1 Burnley Tottenham Hotspur 3 – 1 West Ham United Wigan Athletic 1 – 2 Bolton Wanderers Wolverhampton Wanderers 2 – 2 Aston Villa Balthy Barrow Downs 25 – 37 Tottenham Sparks Storm 31 – 37 Likestohump Alot FC Jalapeno Monkeys 43 – 41 Ash’s Footballing Kingdom Inter Gobbleknocker 25 – 55 Terkleton Town Goat 28 – 36 The Jam Spaniels Booty Town were the team not in action, but picked up 50 points. It was the inaugural week of the FMS Fantasy League, and there were some real battles to be viewed. The best viewing was between Jalapeno Monkeys and Ash’s Footballing Kingdom. Captain Cesc Fabregas (10) and Darren Bent (8) were the main earners for Satio’s monkeys, with Carragher and Eboue bringing in (6) a piece. Ash’s boys needed to build an impressive amount and Gabby Agbonlahor (12), Ash’s captain, helped set them on their way. Manuel Almunia and Tim Cahill’s (7) almost put them in the winning Hotseat, but a poor defensive showing cost the Footballing Kingdom a victory. The biggest score of the week was found in Terkleton Town, population 1, where they racked up a massive 55 points. Captain van Persie (18) was a massive contributor, with Fabio Aurelio (8) putting in an excellent shift. Cahill, Young and Reina all provided (7) and helped Terklebeast destroy Xen’s weaklings. Omar Koroma made no appearance, as expected, so captaincy moved to Fabregas (10). He and Fabio (5) provided most of the points, leaving Inter Gobbleknocker floundering. Balthazars' Balthy Barrow Downs won’t have been happy at starting against Tottenham, but Gennaro08 had him covered the whole way and sent his boys packing. Ashley Young (7) and Sotiris Kyrgiakos (5) were the biggest scorers, with a whopping five players not picking up points at all. The Sparks had a generic all round scoring week, with Defoe (13) and Gael Clichy (9) starting it off nicely. Gennaro’s two Cole’s (0) both picked up ducks, but didn’t stop his side picking up an opening day win. Storm welcomed Likestohump Alot FC in their first game, but were knocked back as Mark Wilson’s side picked up points from every player on the field. Almunia and Cahill (7) were the biggest earners, Carragher (6) a close second. Storm will be disappointed that only Arshavin (8) and Venegoor of Hesselink (6) picked up major points, two players not gaining any, which in the end probably cost them. Goat played against Jam Spaniels in what turned out to be a non-thriller. The Jam Spaniels squad all made contributions to the score, as little as some were. Robin van Persie (9) and Cahill (7) were the biggest scorers, easily grinding out Goat’s Roger Johnson (5) and Thomas Vermaelen (6) in a simple and in the end easy victory. Booty Town had to miss out this week due to the odd number of competitors in the league, but would have beaten any side if they had bar Terkleton Town. Having Tim Cahill (14) as captain was a stroke of genius for Ben as it bolstered his score nicely. Gael Clichy (6) and Peter Crouch (6) also helped get them off to an excellent start.

HorusFM Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 Cheers boys, much apologies for the delay, had a lot of teething problems with some of the tabling and format I wanted to use. SHOULD turn out to be a lot of fun now it's in action ****** FMS Fantasy League Week 2 Burnley 2 – 3 Wolverhampton Wanderers Chelsea 3 – 1 Stoke City Hull City 3 – 1 Blackburn Rovers Liverpool 2 – 1 Wigan Athletic Manchester United 2 – 1 Tottenham Hotspur West Ham United 1 – 2 Manchester City Terkleton Town 30 – 31 Goat Booty Town 36 – 14 Storm Ash’s Footballing Kingdom 28 - 14 Balthy Barrow Downs Likestohump Alot FC 43 - 14 Inter Gobbleknocker The Jam Spaniels 6 - 15 Jalapeno Monkeys Tottenham Sparks were the team out of action, scoring 8 points. The second week of the FMS Fantasy League saw a reduced fixture list, which in some cases extremely limited the scoring chances of some of the sides. Sadly that is how the game goes, and as such some teams scored very lowly this week. They’ll be able to make it up when the fixtures that were missing return in two weeks time. The best game of the week was once again found at Terkleton Town, where a real nail biter emerged against Goat. Having won so comfortably last week, Terkleton Town felt the losses lesser so than others, but still struggled as the fringe players made appearances. Reina (8) and Kuyt/Altidore (6) were the biggest contributors for Terkleton, a surprising eight players all managing points today. Goat found themselves with just six, including a whole defence missing. Thankfully captain Lampard (12) and Drogba (8) performed for Chelsea and Maierhofer chalked an assist to pip Terkleton by a point for a surprise victory. A drab game was to be found at The Jam Spaniels and Jalapeno Monkey clash, where low scoring was the flavour of the day. Carragher (8) and Cech (6) were the only real scorers, Alexander (1) with the other. All The Jam Spaniels needed was a few contributors and they’d have walked away victors, but Collins and Shawcross (1) could only add pitifully to sole star Mascherano (4) and in the end saw the Spaniels take dunces of the week. The easiest win of the day went to Likestohump Alot FC, who took on last week’s joint dunces Inter Gobbleknocker. Superb performances from Nani/Carragher (8) and stand-in captain Bellamy (16) saw them rocket ahead of Inter, who could only manage four appearances. Maierhofer (5) was the biggest scorer, Scholes and Essien (4) bagging the majority of the rest to avoid a real poor scoring. Booty Town registered a simple and easy victory over Storm, but only thanks to Anelka (26) who had a superb week. Alex (2) and Carragher (8) scored the rest in what turned out to be a three man show. Storm had nothing to respond with, Franco di Santo’s surprise goal for Blackburn being the only real consolation for them. Essien (4) helped push the score out of the ridiculous single figures. Our last match saw Ash’s Footballing Kingdom attempt to follow up their good start with a visit from last week’s joint dunces Balthy Barrow Downs. It was once again not a great week for Balthazars as he needed to rely on Emmerson Boyce (8) to salvage anything from the week. AFK were heavily reliant on Anelka (13), and missed out on a better scoreline because of Cole (4) being stand in captain for the week. It is the second week running that Balthy have scored the same points as Inter Gobbleknocker. Tottenham Sparks were the team not in action this week, and they must have been extremely pleased having scored only eight points. Cole (4), Cech (3) and Defoe (1) were the only scorers, putting together a score that would only have beaten one team had they been in action.

HorusFM Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 Demand all you want, Terkle, but in the end Maierhofer once again haunts us. ***** FMS Fantasy League Week 3 Birmingham City 2 – 3 Manchester City Blackburn Rovers 0 – 3 Arsenal Everton 1 – 2 Liverpool Fulham 0 – 2 Hull City Manchester United 1 – 0 West Ham United Portsmouth 1 – 1 Burnley Stoke City 0 – 2 Bolton Wanderers Tottenham Hotspur 3 – 0 Aston Villa Wigan Athletic 1 – 1 Sunderland Wolverhampton Wanderers 2 – 3 Chelsea Tottenham Sparks 36 - 35 Ash’s Footballing Kingdom Inter Gobbleknocker 44 - 38 Booty Town Balthy Barrow Downs 13 - 37 The Jam Spaniels Goat 59 - 36 Likestohump Alot FC Jalapeno Monkeys 39 - 53 Terkleton Town Storm weren’t in action this week, but picked up 29 points. After a rather low scoring and disappointing week for some, action resumed with a fully packed Premiership weekend. Balthy Barrow Downs and Inter Gobbleknocker needed a good week, especially a victory, to kick start their season while The Jam Spaniels would be looking to overturn that abysmal score of 6 from last week. There was a stunning tie found between Ash’s Footballing Kingdom and Tottenham Sparks, Sparks looking to score than the measly six they managed last time out. It turned out that in the end only one point would separate the two sides. Sparks found themselves heavily reliant on their Spurs contingent, Defoe (13) and Lennon (8) hauling them up after a disappointing start. AFK however got points all across the board, the main earners being Corluka (9) and Almunia (7). They couldn’t manage enough though, and Gennaro walked away victorious thanks to Michael Brown’s (2) contribution. The highest scorers of the round were Goat, who summoned up 59 points to stun Likestohump Alot FC, the early frontrunners. A stunning donation of points from Lampard (26) and Drogba (13), which in itself would have beaten Wilson, and helped along by Myhill (7) made Goat look uncatchable. Mark Wilson managed what he could, Bellamy (10) and Almunia/P.Neville (7) providing the backbone, but minor additions failed to take them to where they needed. A very close tie between damp squibs Inter Gobbleknocker and Booty Town saw only a six point gap in the final score. Booty Town enjoyed a full squad haul of points, Phil Neville (7) the biggest scorer and Clichy/Song (6) providing the Arsenal man with his share of the spoils. Sadly for him though Inter’s captain Fabregas (22) stole the show with his collection, which was exactly half the final scoring. G.Cahill/Adebayor (6) were the other main players in his side, the boys from the South finally picking up some points. Terkleton Town needed a good pick me up after losing to Goat last week, and they responded in fine fashion. A fully scoring side saw them romp to 53 team points, van Persie (18), Mikel (7) and Altidore (6) the big scorers. Jalapeno Monkey’s scored fairly decently, but a weak strikeforce of three strikers only scored 3 points. They were also reliant on Fabregas (22) to pull them up higher than they were, Eboue (6) the next biggest after him. The final game of the Premiership week saw perennial failures Balthy Barrow Downs play against The Jam Spaniels, with both wanting better performances. Chesterfan got his improvement in the squad captain van Persie (18) dispatching the Barrow score singlehandedly. From there Kenwyne Jones (6) contributed nicely, whilst all Barrow could manage 13, their lowest score of the season. Nadir Belhadj (5) was the biggest scorer, three other players picking up (3) each. The team not in action this week was Storm, and they’ll be thankful as their score of just 29 would only have beaten Balthy Barrow Downs. It was a very London based scoring, Arshavin (8), Essien (4) and Kovac (4) helping pitch them a decent enough score to add to their goal ratio.

HorusFM Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 FMS Fantasy Week 4 – Carling Cup Special Notts County 0 – 2 Wolverhampton Wanderers Shrewsbury Town 1 – 2 Sunderland Crystal Palace 3 – 0 Wigan Athletic Brentford 2 – 0 Hull City Huddersfield Town 1 – 2 Stoke City Doncaster Rovers 1 – 4 Bolton Wanderers Burnley 4 – 2 Hartlepool United Manchester City 2 – 1 Leicester City West Ham United 3 – 0 Rotherham United Tottenham Hotspur 2 – 0 Blackpool Portsmouth 3 – 2 Bristol Rovers Birmingham City 2 – 1 Nottingham Forest Blackburn Rovers 2 – 1 Oldham Athletic Terkleton Town – 22 points Goat – 34 points Jalapeno Monkeys – 2 points The Jam Spaniels – 8 points Booty Town – 9 points Storm – 19 points Likestohump Alot FC – 4 points Ash’s Footballing Kingdom – 0 points Tottenham Sparks – 24 points Balthy Barrow Downs – 22 points Inter Gobbleknocker – 7 points Today saw the first week of the Carling Cup tournament, and whilst many of the Premiership teams took part, it was an extremely unprecedented low scoring event. It was important that a good start would be made, due to the fact that one team would be eliminated in this early round. Who ever came bottom would be out of the Carling Cup, so it was imperative to get points on the board. The highest scorers of the week were Goat, who amassed a decent haul of 34 points. Roger Johnson (16) was the highest scorer of the week, and that was mainly thanks to him becoming captain as he was the most valuable player playing. Stefan Maierhofer (6) and Boaz Myhill (5) added eleven points on top of that, giving them the biggest score of the week and top spot on the table. The dunces of the week are Ash’s Footballing Kingdom, who managed not a single point on the board. None of Ash’s players made any appearances, and they will be eliminated from the next round. Terkleton Town brought in 22 points today, but have to be thankful for the moved captaincy to Michael Turner (16), who put in a terrific performance for Hull. Diego Penny/Stasevich/Altidore (2) were the other point scorers, helping Terkleton get off to a decent start. Jalapeno Monkeys were very close to joining AFK on the zero point scoring scrap heap, but are thankful to Graham Alexander (2) the only player to feature, who’s single point was doubled with emergency captaincy. Likestohump Alot FC, like the Monkeys, were extremely close to finishing on zero, and had it not been for Abdoulaye Faye (4) then they would have done just that. Many of Mark’s team should feature as the tournament moves on. The Jam Spaniels managed just eight in the opening round, Joe Hart (6) and Danny Collins (2) the two scorers for Chesterfan, and he should think himself lucky really as Maik Taylor was intended to start. Booty Town – Joe Hart (6), Lee Chung-Yong (3) Storm – Niko Kranjcar (12), Ronald Zubar (6), Jan Venegoor of Hesselink (1) Tottenham Sparks – Stephen Carr (16), Carlo Cudicini (7), Nick Barmby (1) Balthy Barrow Downs – Kevin Davies (18), Abdoulaye Faye (2), Jamie Ashdown/Emmerson Boyce (1) Inter Gobbleknocker – Stefan Maierhofer (6), Michael Salgado (1) | Pos | Inf | Team | | Pts | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 1st | | Goat | | 34 | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 2nd | | Tottenham Sparks | | 24 | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 3rd | | Terkleton Town | | 22 | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 4th | | Balthy Barrow Downs | | 22 | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 5th | | Storm | | 19 | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 6th | | Booty Town | | 9 | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 7th | | The Jam Spaniels | | 8 | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 8th | | Inter Gobbleknocker | | 7 | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 9th | | Likestohump Alot FC | | 4 | | ----------------------------------------------------------- | 10th | | Jalapeno Monkeys | | 2 | [color="red"]| ----------------------------------------------------------- | 11th | | Ash’s Footballing Kingdom | | 0 | | -----------------------------------------------------------[/color] As mentioned, Ash's Footballing Kingdom managed zero points, and as such that was the lowest score.

HorusFM Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 I do feel for you, Ash. Sadly, this week just shows how unlucky your team is becoming. ***** FMS Fantasy League Week 5 Arsenal 3 – 0 Fulham Aston Villa 3 – 1 Manchester United Bolton Wanderers 1 – 0 Wolverhampton Wanderers Burnley 3 – 2 Tottenham Hotspur Chelsea 3 – 0 Portsmouth Hull City 1 – 1 Wigan Athletic Liverpool 3 – 2 Stoke City Manchester City 1 – 2 Blackburn Rovers Sunderland 0 – 3 Everton West Ham United 3 – 2 Birmingham City Storm 44 – 30 Inter Gobbleknocker The Jam Spaniels 61 – 27 Tottenham Sparks Booty Town 45 – 59 Goat Terkleton Town 47 - 36 Balthy Barrow Downs Likestohump Alot FC 39 – 53 Jalapeno Monkeys Ash’s Footballing Kingdom were the only team not in action, picking up 65 points. A week’s hiatus for the Carling Cup saw us return to action with a few surprise results in the Premier League sticking some spanners in the works. Both Storm and Balthy Barrow Downs went in search of their first victory of the season, while Terkleton Town sought to keep hold of the top spot. There proved to be a stunning turnaround from last week’s debacle as The Jam Spaniels went from low scorers to high scorers with a thumping performance of (61). They played host to Gennaro’s Tottenham Sparks, but the Spurs men never got going. Gennaro’s defence contributed 22 of their (27) score, Ashley Cole (12) and Clichy (8) the biggest scorers. The Jam Spaniels didn’t have that problem as van Persie (24) and Steven Pienaar (14) registered monumental points to help seal a huge win for the Spaniels. There weren’t any real close ties of the round, the lowest score gap being between Terkleton Town and Balthy Barrow Downs. After three weeks of odious scoring, Balthy improved to register (36) thanks to Ashley Cole (12), Tim Howard (7) and Etherington/Young (5). It just isn’t enough points to put a real fight up though, and Terkleton Town put them to bed quite easily. Van Persie (24) was the best performer of the day for Terkle, and points from Cahill (6) and Young (5) was almost enough to beat Balthy singlehandedly. Joint bottom side Storm needed a win to spur their season into life, and what better chance than against the team one place above. Storm registered (44) on their score chart, Arshavin (13) scoring the highest. Great efforts by Howard/di Santo (7) put them in the driving seat over Inter Gobbleknocker (30). A lot of Inter’s players didn’t make appearances which severely hindered their chances, but Fabregas’ (16) was a bright spot. Gary Cahill (6) was the next and only big thing, leaving Inter struggling slightly once again. A high scoring event was witnessed between Goat (59) and Booty Town (45), but Goat emerged on top. They had excellent scoring come from Chelsea players, with captain Lampard (16), Drogba (11) and Ballack (11) contributing 38 of the scoreline themselves. Booty Town’s captain Tim Cahill (12) was the big provider for them, Clichy (8) and Crouch (5) the best of the rest. The final game saw Likestohump Alot FC play Jalapeno Monkeys, in another fairly well scoring event. Satio’s Monkeys (53) scored well to power over Likestohump, Fabregas (16) and Eboue (11) the big scorers for them. Likestohump (39) couldn’t muster together enough to overcome the challenge, but managed a full scoring team which will definitely grate on Mark Wilson. Darren Fletcher (7) was the biggest scorer, Almunia/Cahill/Bellamy (6) all putting decent six’s on, but it just wasn’t enough overall to get them anywhere. Ash’s Footballing Kingdom (65) were the only team in action this week, looking to lift spirits after bombing out of the cup last week. They managed to do it in style, but this will definitely upset Ash, as they registered the highest score this week, but without playing anyone, it helped them little other than to boost the GD. Agbonlahor (26) was the reason for their success, Chris Eagles (10) and Darren Fletcher (7) helping push the score to new heights. Shame really, as they’d have beaten whoever they played.

After a nice little break for the International matches, the FMS Fantasy Football League returned with some vigour. Balthy Barrow Downs would still be looking for their first win of the season, while the teams at the top will continue scrapping for the coveted top spot, especially considering no side is yet to have held it on their own. The closest tie of the round came from the two oddest named sides, Goat welcoming Storm into battle. Storm managed (36) on the scorecard, thanks to captain Essien (16), Dusko Tosic (5) and once again di Santo (8). The score was fairly average for Storm, but it just wasn’t enough for them as Goat fired back in similar fashion. It was a Chelsea and defence theme for Goat, Vermaelen (8) and Steinsson/R.Johnson (5) while Lampard/Drogba (6) helped contribute nicely to a fourth successive win. The biggest win of the week came from Booty Town (61), who dispatched Jalapeno Monkeys (33) with relative ease. Darren Bent (12) and Leighton Baines (7) were the highest that Jalapeno’s could muster, Saha (6) backing them up. Booty Town had no problems in overcoming the score, Tim Cahill (30) and Joe Hart (7) managing it on their own. Clichy/Warnock (6) backed them up with points to help improve the GD. After their abysmal cup exit two weeks back, and then the seemingly pointless high scoring last week, Ash’s Footballing Kingdom immediately sought to right the wrongs. They scored nicely (55) to dispatch league front runners The Jam Spaniels (38). Tim Cahill (15) and captain Agbonlahor (24) were destructive for AFK, and one their own garnered enough points to beat their opposition. The Spaniels also had Cahill (15), but Hart/Luke young (7) just wasn’t enough to make up the score made by Gabby, and as such left the Spaniels barking in defeat. Perennial defeatists Balthy Barrow Downs once again suffered this week at the hands of second high scorers Likestohump Alot FC. Balthy Barrows score (38) was made up mainly of Rooney’s (22), the next scorers being A.Young/Belhadj (3). It just wasn’t enough from them, and they struggled, especially when Likestohump Alot FC also had Rooney (22). Tim Cahill (15) and Luke Young (7) scored handsomely to finish off the basement boys. The final game of the week was between Terkleton Town and Tottenham Sparks, both highly charged for getting a win. Neither managed an impressive, both being rather mediocre. The Sparks (44) had half of their score come from Rooney (22), Clichy (6) and Defoe (5) adding to that nicely. Terkleton Town had been scoring nicely as of late, but this week they struggled and it was evident in the amount of players who failed to play. Cahill (15) and Martin Petrov (10) gave them 25 of the 35 they scored, but weak showings from everyone else hampered them and in the end gave Tottenham the win. The one team not in action this week was Inter Gobbleknocker, and they’ll be fairly pleased as they only amassed (37). It would only have beaten two sides, but it shows steady improvement from the early for Xen’s side. Michael Essien (16) stepped in as captain, and was complimented by Shay Given and Emmanuel Adebayor (6) for a painless week.

HorusFM Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 Gentlemen, gentlemen, let us not be jealous of my greatness. I was born this way. ***** FMS Fantasy Football Champions League Trophy This week saw the inaugural round of the Champions League Trophy, where points are gained for our teams across both the Europa League and Champions League. Our teams are split into three groups (two four’s and a three) and compete each week simply to gain the highest amount of points and a foothold at the top of the table. The top two teams progress from each group to the next round and there will be six round of this stage, just like the real European competitions. Chelsea 2 – 0 NK Dinamo Liverpool 2 – 1 Olympique de Marseille Arsenal 2 – 0 VfL Wolfsburg Manchester United 3 – 0 Olympique Lyonnais Sporting Clube de Braga 1 – 2 Fulham Sc Heerenveen 2 – 2 Aston Villa Levski Sofia 2 – 2 Everton Terkleton Town – 11 points Goat – 29 points Jalapeno Monkeys – 21 points The Jam Spaniels – 11 points Booty Town – 39 points Storm – 16 points Likestohump Alot FC – 42 points Ash’s Footballing Kingdoms – 49 points Tottenham Sparks – 42 points Balthy Barrow Downs – 37 points Inter Gobbleknocker – 6 points So here we were at the start of the season’s European adventure. Ash’s Footballing Kingdom had found themselves the poor souls to have been eliminated from the first round of the Carling Cup, so would be in search of a better showing in this. League leaders Goat will be happy of the break from league duties, but will be also trying their best to do decent in the cup competitions. It turns out Ash’s Footballing Kingdom were happy to finally make a proper splash in a cup as they managed the highest score of the week, (49). They didn’t have one large main scorer to thank for this as it was a general well played team effort, Anelka (9) the highest scorer, with Almunia/Carlos Cuellar (7) following him up nicely. Ash will be a happy man indeed. The lowest scorers of the week are, to nobody’s surprise, Inter Gobbleknocker (6). Having been performing so poorly in the league, they needed a good haul today, but they just didn’t get it. Their only player to contribute points was Essien (6), and if he hadn’t of played, they could have written themselves out straight away, but they probably have now anyway. Likestohump Alot FC and Tottenham Sparks (42) managed the same score this week, and both had Rooney (26) to thank for that. Sparks also had Clichy/A.Cole (6) to thank, while Likestohump were pleased that Almunia (7) had Rooney’s back. Terkleton Town – A.Young (4), Mikel (3), Aurelio/Cahill (2) Goat – Lampard (16), Andy Johnson (7), Ballack (3) Jalapeno Monkeys – Baines (13), A.Young (4), Saha (2) The Jam Spaniels – Mascherano (4), Giggs (3), Cahill (2) Booty Town – Song (9), Clichy (6), Warnock (4) Storm – Arshavin (8), Essien (6), Howard (2) Balthy Barrow Downs – Rooney (26), A.Cole (6), Howard (2) [b][size="3"]Group A[/size][/b] | ----------------------------------------------------------| | Pos | | Team | | Pts | [color="#2e8b57"]| ----------------------------------------------------------| | 1st | | Booty Town | | 39 | | ----------------------------------------------------------| | 2nd | | Storm | | 16 | [/color] [color="red"]| ----------------------------------------------------------| | 3rd | | Inter Gobbleknocker | | 6 | | ----------------------------------------------------------| [/color] [b][size="3"]Group B[/size][/b] | ----------------------------------------------------------| | Pos | | Team | | Pts | [color="#2e8b57"]| ----------------------------------------------------------| | 1st | | Ash’s Footballing Kingdom | | 49 | | ----------------------------------------------------------| | 2nd | | Balthy Barrow Downs | | 37 | [/color] [color="red"]| ----------------------------------------------------------| | 3rd | | Goat | | 29 | | ----------------------------------------------------------| | 4th | | The Jam Spaniels | | 11 | | ----------------------------------------------------------| [/color] [b][size="3"]Group C[/size][/b] | ----------------------------------------------------------| | Pos | | Team | | Pts | [color="#2e8b57"]| ----------------------------------------------------------| | 1st | | Likestohump Alot FC | | 42 | | ----------------------------------------------------------| | 2nd | | Tottenham Sparks | | 42 | | ----------------------------------------------------------| [/color] [color="red"]| 3rd | | Jalapeno Monkeys | | 21 | | ----------------------------------------------------------| | 4th | | Terkleton Town | | 11 | | ----------------------------------------------------------| [/color] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
