The Reality Draft: Main Thread (Finals)

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
gets lost on the teamsheet though, you need more black around the edges.Looks like Igor from Addams family! With a weird surprised expression. Or maybe like @Annahnomoss when he find a wordy tramp stamp!
Phil Jones doesn't need a full face - half a Phil face is enough to scare any team into submission.
@harms Theon mentions "As it's Friday I'll be able to get home for 5-6 UK time." So I presume the earliest I can start this will be 7-8 UK Time...if I receive it by then.
Sadly if I don't get the tactics, it will be a no -show giving harms the win. Just to remain consistent all through.
I don't mind having starting a match with a caretaker manager, but the result would not influence the draft.
@MJJ @Theon Send to me when it is ready.
So, what's up with this? It would be a bit shit to have a no-show at this stage
Seeing as this was Chester's, Theon's and MJJs team, they probably wouldn't mind another caretaker

You mean it isn't? His XI picks itself!
This will no doubt be a no show now unless @MJJ steps in. The moment Theon realises harms is playing Krankl instead of Willy his head will explode, meltdown ensues with furious drawing up of various different formations, repeating each and every one with different colours... It will take him days, not hours, let alone minutes.

That is why I didn't want to post the picture, but MJJ said that Theon already sent his tactics
My only surprise there
Righteo I'm back now. I've left work early just for this game, I'll have you know. I'll PM Edgar now.
I thought you lacked a goal threat otherwise so it's probably a good call. Although Ortiz having a good crack at Rodriguez would have been a sound plan anyway. Not much in it really.
I'm not that surprised and I wouldn't have addressed any of it in the OP anywayThat is why I didn't want to post the picture, but MJJ said that Theon already sent his tactics

Damn. Just knew that Aldo has gone. Feels sad, like when I heard that we sold Welbeck.
Goodbye to you, my fellow newbie and drafter.
Goodbye to you, my fellow newbie and drafter.
Yeah. A bit weird that. He had a warning and a 1 day ban I think for some nonsense issue and then he was gone permanently!
Maybe he finally called in the day, while on high as draft winner (few drafts ago?).
Or more likely, he's just finished his degree, and finding job is a bit more important/urgent right now.
He was moving to the UK, new beginnings, lots of things to look forward to... Probably best to face it with no distractions, eyes wide open and a smile on his face.

How many picks do we get EAP? One?
Let's go! This is Barcelona half time entertainment.
Two
Just came online. So, yeah. Lets go.
Got a bad feeling about this one.
I reckon it's Rivaldo. Hamstring.
I reckon it's Rivaldo. Hamstring.
That could be a problem...
I'm a bit non-plussed about going first and eighth here. I've said it before and will say it again: I LIKE BEING IN THE MIDDLE, FFS!!!!
Interesting that the other three are from the lower end of the draft order, feel quite chuffed about going against that tide
I'm sure I'll be kicking myself for not starting Ljungberg last time out, hadn't realised it was starting XI.
Sorry guys. Had to cook. Start in 15 mins...
feck off "Had to cook". Cooking? Seriously? This is important shit here!
Thats makes it a bit more exciting. would have been boring otherwise.
I just know this is going to be awful
MJJ & Theon are stunned by the loss of Sammer.
Feck sake
Believe..I think its going to be our german import!I just know this is going to be awful
next up is antohan....
Oh, this is going to be interestingMJJ & Theon are stunned by the loss of Sammer.
OMG, what a horrible tackle! It will be a straight red...but that is not going to help @antohan as he loses Hierro.
feck me sideways, that's straight into the spine. Ouch!
The funny thing is had Theon lost I would sure be picking Sammer next then

The Red Viper is biting his nails. This is far worse than when his neighbours wife gave birth!!!
VivaJanuzaj is exhaleted by the return of Breitner, but is dreading the coming meet with the physio. Fingers crossed!
