Surely when people leave a list its in order of who they want?
Shelton fucking London ladies and gentlemen
he has left a list hasnt he? And he was here all last night...
Remind me not to give my list to rosk.
If he's left a list then the order he typed them is the order he wanted them surely?!
I reckon if he left a list, he'd have ordered by preference.
I am trading Benteke and my 6th draft pick to Chris Scott for McCormack and his 2nd draft pick
Can we ban Chris Scott from making trades?
It's a good deal. Benteke is going to go mental this year.
Its a good deal for you.
It's a good deal for all of us.
Where's Shelton's 2nd pick?
Never mind my first picks have you not seen the history of my 2nd picks?
Lets lay this out:
Chris Scott
Pick 37: Christian Benteke
Pick 57
Pick 64
Pick 97
Pick 104
Pick 117
Pick 137
Bad Collin
Pick 4: Damian Reeves
Pick 17: Ross McCormack
Pick 24
Pick 44
Pick 77
Pick 84
Pick 124
So by the time Chris Scott gets his second pick, Bad Collin has four picks; two first rounders, a second rounder and a high third rounder.

Yeah but one of them is McCormack.
I just remembered how much I hate having Liverpool players in my team. It cheapens Liverpool wins if my RFF player doesn't score.
Yeah I'd already edited that.
I'd like to hear MMH and Dave's input
I'd like to hear SheltonLondon's draft pick.
There was a instance a few years back when MMH veto'd a trade as it was blatantly unfair even though both people were happy.
Remember when we had this uproar for the Lambert/Suarez trade? Suarez scored one goal in ten and bit someone.
I'd say it is massively one-sided rather than necessarily unfair. Bad Collin benefits more than Chris Scott loses out.
Bad Collin has zero excuse for not winning this year after that trade. Even without the 20 points that Ronaldo and Messi usually give him.
The draft means nothing in the end anyway
Can we just agree next year then that Chris Scott doesn't draft but just gets given the Liverpool squad? He'll only trade his 1st, 2nd and 3rd draft picks for Lucas and a packet of quavers anyway.
It's not that bad for Chris Scott. "Blatently unfair" is an overreaction. A late first and early second for a player that would probably have been picked in the top 5 is decent business. Yeah BC only "paid" a second round pick for a first round talent but that's the keeper system and anyone else can do that too if they want to trade their keepers.
The Rosk is here to save us from these shenanigans with Shelton's second pick.
He sent me this.
I'm looking at Ciftci, then XXX or XXX
So what should I do lads?
Chris Scott you literally handed Beefy the League last year and you're doing it again here. There is nothing in that for you. It is mental.
Pick the first one.
Ross McCormack is 10/1 to be top scorer in the Championship this year.
Christian Benteke is 16/1 to be top scorer in the Premier League this year.
It makes sense that he would want to give away a top draft pick AND a player likely to score more goals to get Benteke. Definitely.
If we were making assumptions I'd say Benteke and McCormack would have fairly similar goal returns this season. Which means Chris Scott has got a 6th round pick and lost a 1st round...
OK. Andre Gray (Brentford)
FUCKERS.
Fuck sake. He's already gone and I didn't spot it.
To be fair, Chris Scott has not confirmed it in here yet. We need his confirmation before we allow BC to do this.
Has Matthew left a list with anyone?
Derek Lyle (QotS)
He's 34, but he's already scored once this season.
And now I hear Rudy's off to Villa.
I quit.
shgasghahgashgasaghasgh REECHBREAKING: Sky Sources: Aston Villa in advanced talks with Blackburn over striker Rudy Gestede.
Diamond Derek Lyle was great for me last year.
Lads, we have one week to get this finished. We're usually racing through the third round at this point.
If you're not going to be around the minute it gets to your turn please leave a list. You've at least three people (BBF, Rosk and I) who have said we'll be here and are happy to take those lists.
Left a list with Beebs as I have football this evening.
WHY DON'T YOU TRUST ME YOU CUNT
BC sorry mate, but I'm letting my heart rule my head with Bentenke, I'm going to to cancel deal at the last minute.
SJAGDJKLWFJKWELHFLKJFHSAHJDSADSA
this is great
CHRIS SCOTT CHECK YOUR PMs
Fair enough Chris mate.
dsfdgfdgfdhhh
Its obvious Ross will get as many if not more goals in championship.
I've tweeted connorboy. Hopefully he picks by lunchtime.
That was entertaining, now where the fuck is Connorboy!
connorboy is here! Yay.
Craig Gunn (Elgin)
1.FC legend until he went shit at the end of last year.
I know Chris Scott's next pick. I could put it in for him now?
Chris Scott's next pick is Leon Clarke (Bury)
Amazing pick, Chris Scott is going to do an Alex.
Clarke was one of the people I was considering had the deal done through
Big fat Leon Clarke?
I toyed with Clarke at pick 3. I'm staggered he made the second round ahead of some of the dross you lads have picked up.
Jay is around and checking in ready to take his pick once Matthew is done.
Cheers Rosk, I take back what I said about leaving a list earlier.
Come on Matthew your Sabres and Bills are shit, get over it.
I've got to go to a couple of meetings until 3pm. Who can I send some picks to?
Gotta run so sent it to BBF

Beefy, how the fuck can you not know what the Waltons is/was???
Why did we let Matthew back in?
Trading draft picks is common in American sports. It is based more on potential rather than end results, however it always get re-evaluated years later.
The quality difference between McCormack and Benteke in this game is not on the same level as the difference between a 2nd and 6th round pick. Picks are normally thrown in to balance out the difference in quality of the players. Since it is not the type of game in which you can rebuild a team over a period of time (years), it is more of an immediate impact. Basically if this trade were even we would be saying that (hypothetically) if Benteke were to get taken in the 2nd round, McCormack's value would be one of someone who would not get picked until round 6.
I'm gonna go and kill an owl.
Kill that stupid mascot wolf you have at the shitty wire while you're at it.
LIST LIST LEAVE A LIST YOU BASTARDS
Introduce the skip after an hour if no list rule
We should defo skip Matthew after he made such a fuss about playing
I'll say once again. Leave a bloody list with me. All of you. FFS. My next draft pick isn't until December or something.
I trust Beef and BBF more.
My big decision was between Bradshaw and Clarke. My only issue with Clarke was that he’s in a promoted team and there are six strikers at Bury, and he’s had a year of doing fuck all. I decided to go with my head in Bradshaw as he’s Walsall’s only goal threat, scored a fuck ton last year, and I personally tested his hamstring so it wouldn’t put him off this year.
