KM's once in a lifetime, marvelous cricket sheep draft
- Thread starter Interval
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

Figured someone would pick up Dhoni in that round. Didn't really expect so many people to have the same idea regarding Gilchrist and Symonds.
In middle of all chaos ,crappy silently sneaked away Warne.Well played mate.
Yeah we doubled down on a different pair of Australians leaving a free route to warne for crappy
I thought it would be a block for sure, I was aghast that Warne was not picked in last two player round.I picked him in second round
too late.P.s. It was Thala.
I was ready for a sheep.
Gutsy move really. I figured Kohli and Dhoni would be gone in the first round anyway, allowing me to pick up Symonds (who I actually wanted more than Gilchrist). Fortune favours the brave and all that.I was ready for a sheep.
When I tried to be brave I ended up with 2 sheep and a bunch of cats.
Well done everyone. This is what happens when I leave @KM in charge for a few days. No sheep with players running amok taking Warne and Ponting and Garner home for nothing.
In the vein of freebies being offered - here's the next - relatively simple round.
YEAR OF THE HORSE
Pick a player that is a stated fan of a current Premier League football club
- Provide evidence backing the same
- The mods will be the final judges on whether to allow it or not. Because there can be spurious claims without adequate backing on internet articles and forums. Quotes are preferable.
- PL clubs refer to the current 20 that are competing in 2018-19 league
- Negative points for picking shithouses who have shifted their support away from The Greatest Club ever to some wannabe club because their favourite player moved or someone else is winning or something
EDIT: it needn't be a fan of today. Just needs to have supported a club that is in today's PL

Explain technical difficulties
We are discussing the veracity of some picks. As soon as these are resolved, we will close it
How much longer left?
I can smell some BS picks coming up.

@crappycraperson @harshad Go again.
Had no intentions whatsoever on researching that criteria one more time.
I was checking insta and twitter pages near the end
Picked the first guy I found who followed a club.

WTF I thought Gambhir was ultra safe pick
Gada obviously thought the same. He's calling you out for a fight on PM
What do you mean near the end?! I combed through a certain gentleman's twitter feed all the way back to when he joined in mid-2017. Lots of mentions of PL football but no fecking team of his own.I was checking insta and twitter pages near the end
I went for the dodgy fan club website first but @Interval didn't buy it.
Went through the entire list of 400 accounts who a certain gentleman was following all cricketers, current and retired, reporters, ipl clubs, only one football club. But yeah that wasn’t deemed good enough

He also poo-pooed my quite spurious claim. Worst. Mod. Eva!Went through the entire list of 400 accounts who a certain gentleman was following all cricketers, current and retired, reporters, ipl clubs, only one football club. But yeah that wasn’t deemed good enough
We are going to have to cancel this round. I'll update you'll in a few mins
So I've fecked up and allowed a pick to pass that shouldn't have in light of new evidence.
Its messy. So in light of my incompetence - we have decided to scrap the round. Apologies to all you'll who have invested time on this.
Freddie and Gauti will be off the blocked list.
Will post the new criteria soon
