He's at physio apparently. Unbelievable.

I'm not happy about the lack of a hilarious picture in the opening post as well.

EDIT - why are there seven rounds when we agreed #SixManSquads?

Andy didn't send a list but, in his defence, he probably thought that the draft was starting on Sunday as previously agreed.

We're probably stuck now until this evening.

I'll be here all day if you want to send me a list.

son_of_foley
July 28th, 2016, 4:19 AM
I think I would like to send it to someone trustworthy like BBF

You mean I rushed my pick and Andy isn't even here? What the fuck. You're dead Beefy.

On a serious note are we saying 6hrs per slot or less?

MMH

The first round will take as long as it takes. Im not chasing someone for not drafting when he doesnt know the draft is on!

6 hours after round 1 is fine.

FFS Andy. It's 7pm here and I am not sleeping till I get my first two picks.

Does anyone have Andy's number? Obviously not, because he's a cunt.

Let's email him.

Have you got a link to the spreadsheet?

Beefy

I can. He always does it. He'll be in here in ten hours time asking if it is ok to draft a player from La Liga.

Beefy
July 28th, 2016, 5:02 AM
I've just seen I am playing Alex in week 1. Fucking glorious. GLORIOUS.

His last game was a 4-1 defeat to me. He's shit mate.

Grimario
July 28th, 2016, 5:04 AM
His last game was a 4-1 defeat to me. He's shit mate.

That's my point. Easy start to the season, the lads back in the RFF after a few years languishing in the regional divisions. Good confidence booster playing someone like Alex.

BBF
July 28th, 2016, 5:11 AM
Have you got a link to the spreadsheet?

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aIxCcYJOl4Id4hWm9P82-GjXrEWPCpJN5VpKo94C9MU/edit

The fixtures haven't been updated week to week yet but they are on the fixtures tab. I'll have to do the week to week ones tomorrow.

MMH
July 28th, 2016, 5:14 AM
One thing that happens every season and does my head in more than anything in this game....

Poster A moans that he is waiting to take his pick and berates Poster B for not being here to make their pick.

Poster A then fucks off without leaving a list with someone.

Does my head in.

MMH
July 28th, 2016, 5:14 AM
Dont we have Andy on twitter by the way?

The Rosk
July 28th, 2016, 5:18 AM
I am literally here ready for lists. I won't be picking anyone for 38 goes so your picks are safe with me.

Probably worth updating the MMH Cup tab too at some point.

The Rosk

Great, that'll mean you won't be the oldest boy this year again.

RIP and I have a wonderful relationship which everyone is jealous of. Truth.

BBF

Aye, I did it on last years sheet but not this years. Thanks for reminding me.

Beefy

I'm one of the youngers ones. MMH is way older than me.

I've emailed Andy and have SOF's list.

Why have we started? Thursday at 9am was never mentioned. I haven't got a list. I'll be back at 9am Friday.

Beefy
July 28th, 2016, 7:27 AM
You don't need a list for your first round pick Alex.

Beefy
July 28th, 2016, 7:34 AM
Andy is here. Pressure on Alex to be bold and draft one of the top goalscorers in the country without 24 hours prep.

Mik
July 28th, 2016, 7:38 AM
Why have we started? Thursday at 9am was never mentioned. I haven't got a list. I'll be back at 9am Friday.


Ahahaha, a list?! Just adapt. I haven't even for s first round pick. When I was criticising the draft structure last season everyone was telling me how it was more or less meaningless anyway.

Stuck between three. I'm going to think for three minutes then post my pick.

Also, it's a Thursday morning, I'm at work dickheads.

How can you be stuck between three when you've known you've had the second pick for months?!

Andy
July 28th, 2016, 7:42 AM
Martyn Waghorn (Rangers)

Beefy
July 28th, 2016, 7:44 AM
I had the first six picks mapped out and that's two for two. Lets see what happens next.

Then it's MMH who is always a wildcard

Torn
July 28th, 2016, 7:46 AM
Passed over some very good players to get someone who scored 11 penalties and moving up a division there. RISK.

Andy
July 28th, 2016, 7:46 AM
Genuinely that was a tough choice. Should be a relatively safe pick but it is a jump up a division and it is Scotland.

Pretty certain who the next six or so picks will be, just not sure about order.

Torn
July 28th, 2016, 7:46 AM
I enjoyed the first two players being from Scotland mind as it pushes players actually on my list down to my lowly spot.

Andy
July 28th, 2016, 7:47 AM
Passed over some very good players to get someone who scored 11 penalties and moving up a division there. RISK.

He'll still be on pens though and Rangers get a lot. I'm also not convinced there's a huge difference in quality between the SPL and the Championship.

BBF
July 28th, 2016, 7:48 AM
Unless Rangers make a SUPER signing in the next few days and Waghorn is pushed out of the side...

MMH
July 28th, 2016, 7:55 AM
Waghorn was frustrating in the Championship let alone the Premier League.

I had him on my list but the fact I didnt keep him says what I think about his potential next year.

Andy
July 28th, 2016, 7:58 AM
We'll see. I rarely do well with my first round pick.

Andy
July 28th, 2016, 7:59 AM
Anyway I need to consult my list so next pick won't be till after 7 tonight. Happy drafting.

Beefy
July 28th, 2016, 8:00 AM
Next pick overall is tomorrow at 9.01am by the looks of it so you'll definitely be safe not logging back in until after 7 tonight.

BBF
July 28th, 2016, 8:06 AM
Doesn't that mean I can pick at about 00:42 tonight? Are we doing 12 hour deadlines as normal?

Grimario

We don't all work 9-3 in the public sector. Some of us have to deliver results.

What a nonsensical post that has nothing to do with whatever I even said. I was mocking your need to be so prepared that you have to put the time and effort in. Therefore your working hours have got absolutely nothing to do with anything. You're the one that needs all the time you can get. Particularly when by all accounts the draft means very little.

I've never worked 9-3. I'm sure that your job of lining the pockets of some rich man is so much higher pressured on results than securing the futures of hundreds of young people's lives.

Its a game, put your dossier and Filofax away and just pick players, stop moaning about not having enough time to prep. Grow up.

What a nonsensical post that has nothing to do with whatever I even said. I was mocking your need to be so prepared that you have to put the time and effort in. Therefore your working hours have got absolutely nothing to do with anything. You're the one that needs all the time you can get. Particularly when by all accounts the draft means very little.

I've never worked 9-3. I'm sure that your job of lining the pockets of some rich man is so much higher pressured on results than securing the futures of hundreds of young people's lives.

Its a game, put your dossier and Filofax away and just pick players, stop moaning about not having enough time to prep. Grow up.

I don't want to grow up if it means having to react like the above.

They have Norwood and Jennings who will be playing left and right of a 3 man attack. Basically they are there to feed Cook.

Its Tranmere though, anything could happen.

There really isnt a lot of value in the first round this season other than the first few picks. Loads of value further down the draft though.

Surprised to see Mitrovic go there considering he's banned for the first four games and doesn't even appear to be first choice. Billy Sharp and Zlatan could both be good but are risks.

Even Kane might be fucked because he's played so much football recently. Griffiths is the only safe pick so far I think.

Zlatan isn't a risk. I was genuinely toying with picking him at 1. Mourinho loves him, he'll be played central striker and he only scores fuckloads of goals everywhere he plays. Motivated and brilliant. He will be top ten scorers for sure.

I didn't expect Sharp so early but before the draft yesterday I did move him up a fair bit in my list I sent, can't argue with the safety he brings especially now he is captain, and has a high floor. Surprised McCormack fell so far. Will Grigg over him? Giroud? Batshuayi? I mean Chris Scott had him last year yet went for Mitrovic!

Very surprised at Assombalonga coming off his injury going in round 1 but I can see why Beefy did it and he does love him a lot.

I went for Murphy as the FGR fans seem to have it as a bit of a toss up between them for top scorer. And feel like they will smash that league this year! Probs a bit of a risk but worth the gamble!

Murphy was in big consideration for my first rounder. Think he will batter the conference.

he scored about 2 last year in the conference...

Top scorer in the league above only a year ago. Pompey should never have got rid, all our strikers are shit.

Murphy will annihilate the conference. SheltonLondon has made a cracking first two picks there.
