In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Sounds good. The majority are all good to be honest but the taxi setup is not working. Is it necessary to have a taxi set up? Might just be worth binning it and increasing roster size to stop the faf
Might be yeah. I agree it's not working.
What is a super flex?
My only issue with changing squad composition now is that it hampers people with a lack of depth particularly hard
I'm trying to find out what we said for the wild card spots. As far I intended, it was based on record but if we posted otherwise then it will go by what was posted.
Doesn't superflex allow QBs? It would advantage me a ton but I dont known if it's quite fair since that's a big change.
QB included. Would need to be in the pipeline for a few seasons though as you can't just throw it in on a moment's notice.
There was discussion of whether it’s highest scorer or record but honestly I can’t recall what was decided.
Would it be different in any case as it stands?
Would it be different in any case as it stands?
Even though it would screw me - I think we said, or at least I suggested, points scored? Even all-play record would be more fair. I just think a way to reward outside of divison is good to include. It is only 2 spots.
So on record it’s currently jagga7
and one of OP, chetan, Eboue.
on scoring it’s one of chetan and back of the net.
so yeah very different

im with you to be honest. Score or overall record for me.
Edit: overall record is a good idea. It factors in who was more balanced in scoring too rather than rewarding someone who had a bizarrely awesome week.
but we probably, for this year at least, need to stick with what was agreed unless all agree with this regardless
We could do one each? I'm trawling through previous pages to find what we said.
This would be a big change and not sure how we would implement.
My reason being, QBs generally score the most points by and large given opportunity cost. There’s 12 teams and 32 starting QBs any week so unless you have a good backup already you’re inherently fecked
my vote is whatever we agreed for this year if you can find it so as to not upset anyone. Then going forward I like all play record
If we agreed in writing then that stands obviously. I just haven't found it yet
Quoted for reference
I searched “wild card” and nothing comes up where we agreed format of wild card. Just that there would be 2 spots.
im going to get fecked over in the play offs aren’t I and end up top seed and then come 4th
Seems to me that without explicitly saying it, we agreed on record.
So Eboue up to you how you want to play it.
I’m not that fussed either way. I mean the real NFL is on record so meh.

I think in the absence if anything else it should be record. Then the next question is tiebreaker. Head to head or total points
tie breaker should be all play imo
Threadmark this page. Can come back to it in the off-season. I plan on collating all the rules into a word doc anyway. Then we can vote on resolutions.
I've been absolutely hammered on the PA score. Over 50 points more than the closest other player. Only 4 teams have scored more points than me. Completely knackered as a team now though.
ffs
Not a fan of starting 2 QBs myself. Would be saying this even if my QBs weren't all shite.
The arguments I have heard for QB superflex were pretty good. Basically QB's are worth very little as aside from the top-2/3 they are all roughly the same. Adding a superflex makes them a bit more valuable.
From day one I wouldn’t have an issue. Just don’t know how we can implement midway.
Yeah you’ve been really unlucky.
Like I said - you would need a couple seasons notice.
We drafted in accordance to the current line up rules. No way we should implement a super flex for another QB spot.
We should just implement superflex and re-draft. I think I sort of almost know how to play fantasy now.
Again - it is a suggestion that could only feasibly be implemented with a few years in mind. Plenty leagues do, and more are drifting towards it.
Agreed
For roster size I think a simple:
25 slots + 1 IR/Taxi slot where you can ONLY place a player when they have been ruled out for the season. You can't re-activate them once they have been placed on IR/Taxi, but you can keep them at the end of the year. Meaning you can pick up someone from FA and keep with a 25-man squad during the season.
20 keepers
5-round yearly draft w/rookies

25 slots is a lot. I would stick with current size ie meaning it would end up as 21 slots and 1 taxi.
Maybe. I've enjoyed dynasty/keeper leagues where you can pick up a relative unknown. Stash him for a few seasons. Then have him be productive down the line. This opens that up.
What's the point of a taxi squad when you can just add/drop?
Any decision on what should be the tiebreaker for the playoff spot? I guess points scored should be the preference as the teams scoring 150+ and still losing multiple times, deserve more to be in playoffs.
Should be record imo.
