Salah + Laca > Son + Ronaldo(c) (-4) done, so nominally fielding 11 this week.

Not thrilled about losing Laca a week earlier than intended but Ronaldo & Son are two key players over the coming weeks and any other route to bringing them in would have involved more hits. Knowing that I'd definitely want rid of Laca next week it seemed the tidiest move, especially given I still have Saka.

You guys are hilarious though. From doing your transfers hours before previously, to leaving it to 2 minutes before now.

Of course I am smug as I done them 5 minutes ago, sorry :lol:

At least I set the team right but couldn't cap Son in time ffs
My cap is screwed down to Pep roulette

Today is probably where my season ended...will probably get 20 points and watch what I had confirmed on get 80

Yeah it crashed early as I was tinkering. No idea now if I've got Mahrez and Williams or Bernardo and Davies. Think the latter. Meh no biggie. Still think I had KDB as captain.

That does suck. I was going to leave mine that last also, but the missus walked into the room around 13.20 and she was talking about Boxing Day dinner and what we will eat and drink, so I just clicked confirm to get it out of the way.

If it’s any consolation, I took a -8 and still only fielding 10 players. Far from ideal.

The site decided to spazz out last minute, which must have fecked quite a lot of people, seeing as I can imagine everyone was waiting for the last second, just encase any games were called off. Anyway, I think I managed to make the changes, but feck knows who my captain was.

I put White and Martinelli in.

I even thought at 1.25, right let's bank this free hit, have a look, THEN do any tweaking.

That feeling when seeing that "can't go through"
bloody hell.

As if covid hadn't already ruined the game watching! Now games like Tott v Palace will be misery of who i was going to have!

Mine done - at like 1328 and confirmed.

Salah and Laca out - Ronaldo and Son in . -4

Rambo
Rudiger
Cancelo VC
Livra
Reguillon
Son
Mount
Foden
ESR
Ronaldo
Broja

Obviously risky with big chances of Foden, ESR not even starting.... and Ronaldo tomorrow, but feck it, I ain't free hitting this one.

How did you get it done at 1.28? It crashed at 1.25.

Did you get the "transfers can't be done at this point" message?

Seems I got lucky, I made my transfer about 2 minutes before the site apparently crashed :lol:

If they can throw an extra free hit in, they could certainly extend the deadline when they realise how many it affected.
Am sure they won't though.

This is why you always set your bus team, lads.
I set mine to the only possible captain choice.

But last week some of us got caught out by the cheek of making a transfer 3hours before deadline to see a game called off, so this time we went late.
