  1. Nah never even looked at that one tbh. I think Yahoo game is pretty well established so no idea how the official one compares.
  2. Link to join here. Yes just a draft, not even sure if they do anything else.
  3. Go on! I found this much more engaging than FPL last season and that was in a league of complete randoms. Plus you get to follow players that aren't Hornets.
  4. @Hornso @Dodgyknees @Tom13 @AndyM3000 @Reivax_Villa @Beastmix @gwi1890 @Xela @KMitch @a-k Just nudging as 5 of 11 confirmed not joined league yet. Be good to start discussing dates/times for draft as well while we're here. What suits everyone? Also, if/when you have joined, could you drop your team name in here so know who's who?
  5. Across the players that played yesterday, ours had more combined international caps. Seven of our players had 20+ caps compared just three of theirs, Silva (113), Sterling (82) and Caicedo (34) who between them were over 70% of their combined caps. We played three uncapped players to their four. This is not the same Chelsea, and the result didn't surprise me at all. Across the board we have the more experienced players, both in the PL and internationally. We have by far the better form in the short and medium term. We have the more successful manager. The hype that Chelsea have been getting from all corners coming into this season always felt way off to me and so far the hype is looking as unwarranted as I thought it was. We didn't even need to be good yesterday to come away with all three points. Can't argue they don't have the more expensive side, but that means nothing right now when they've paid so heavy for potential.
  6. Hasn’t been decided yet. Will aim to sort a time that suits everyone (or as many as possible) once final participants confirmed.
  7. That’s 10. Two more places up for grabs.
  8. Think we are at 9 verbally confirmed, 3 joined league (including me) so I’d say 3 more confirmed to give us 12 and we can start sorting details.
  9. I’d say aim for something like that. Can discuss that and if want to change any default rules once have finalised numbers I guess?
  10. https://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba/40427/invitation?key=3bc07f4f5adf297c&soc_trk=lnk&ikey=db3f3cc421c83830 link to join
  11. Up to 7 now. I think 12 is the default for the league but is possible to go as high as 20 teams (though whether that’s too many…)
  12. Yep the yahoo one is the one I did last year. I’ve got a league set up, will post details later for people to join.
  13. A section of tickets are put aside specifically for members of the group is what I’ve read. And also Arteta himself pushed the club to do this.
  14. From what I can tell Arsenal's has dramatically improved with Arteta and the club both vocally and practically supporting the ultra-like fan group that was set up a few years back, assisting them in congregating in one block, funding banners, etc.
  15. 4 is the minimum so got that already!
  16. @Beastmix @sne @Hornso @Tom13 @Dodgyknees @villa89 @a-k @EvilChameleon @Tegis @DCJonah @Folski @theboyangel @M_Allback_14 @NoelVilla @AndyM3000 @Reivax_Villa @maqroll @Big Salad @El Zen @bobzy @KMitch @Xela @A'Villan Calling anyone from the last year of the nba thread…
  17. Who’s up for this? I did a random public league last season and thought it was great. Actually stuck with it all last season whereas gave up on FPL about mid season. So thought would be worth seeing if anyone on VT was up for a private league this time round.
  18. Another question for Saturday's meeting, perhaps?
  19. It was when I last did it earlier this year I think. Was about £76 total for 3 years.
  20. Highly likely to be pot 2 with us so won't get them in the group stage.
  21. On the bloke who sits behind me at VP's sell list though, lol. Was fun listening to that nonsense for most of Sunday's game.
  22. Cos that Villamole/Thatcherlover is a c*** who is best ignored. Clue is in the old name.
  23. Thought I had GW1 in the bag going into final game but Lisandro Martinez subbed at half time cost me.
  24. They already do this, don't they? Pietanic in the Holte (and Trinity I think), Yardbirds in the Trinity (if they could get them in the Holte too would be great)
  25. That figure is for the 2021/22 assessment period. This season is two years down the line from that. So lose the first two periods from the above table (-34m) and add 22/23 adjusted results (not published yet but can make a reasonable assumption on these) and you have our headroom for 23/24. It probably comes back to a similar figure. Though we wouldn't want use up all that amount as will make things incredibly difficult next season without major sales. Also because of the UEFA rules as others have mentioned. A few months back I'd predicted we'd probably be looking a £100m spend across 4 players and bringing in £20-30m moving fringe players, and this would leave us in a reasonable position going forward. We are probably at about £75-85m on 3 players in and around £15-20m on outgoings once Ramsey confirmed, with more fringe players still to shift.
