harsh mate very unlucky, i had a team who doesnt check it regularily so he didnt even have 11 starting players got another like that next round aswell.
I honestly couldn't beleive it, with Captain Martins scoring 1 and assisting 2 I thought I was easily through, but he had Matty Taylor, Sol Campbell, Fabregas, Van Persie, Gerrard (C), Rosenoir, Ronaldo............................
it all came in about 5 minutes! miles ahead to miles behind..
It was a similar story for me in the cup, having Ronaldo, Campbell Finnan as my captain and Green in goal with another clean sheet and getting 57 points - i lost to 61 points all because Bridge didnt play for Chelsea and he's sub came into play with was rosenoir of Fulham (clean sheet)
had to make some changes this week for the cup, my opponents got the man utd backline with van der sar as captain so i made him my captain :P his outfield players are the likes of cahill and n'zogia so theres no threat there.
Anyway, this one isn't for money which is why I'm not trying. ... if you hark back to the World Cup predictor, UP and I were sitting pretty at the top-o-the-pile. This is for kiddies etc etc etc
I'm not trying either, I went on holiday without bothering to make sure the team were starters. I missed the first week completely which would have brought an extra 40 pts or so.
