I think my luck might have turned around today.. I might get into top 1/3 this weekend. Hopefully.

With my eight point deduction I’ve scored 18 points this week.  Almost impossible to score less!
Report MrStrawMan • October 25, 2026 5:16 PM GMT
It will be a low scoring week average was only 27

That’s a belter, YHTL.

I’ve had five players with a point or less. Six if you count Pedro, but I’m getting a massive two points for his replacement. I’m breaking records this week!

Thinking I'll tip over 60 this week.. Probably don't deserve it but I'll take it.

Looks like you’ve got another 19 points to come. Being a massive Arsenal fan got you a nice few points this week!
