Brentford shitting the bed at home against a woeful Everton side fucked me over.
Fulham then?
I'm a twit
Still going.
18 in one, 16 in the other. I'm already spending the winnings in my head.
West Ham this week, at home to Everton. Hopefully the Thursday trip to Greece won't ruin it.

Have you already used Villa?
Villa (LUT)
Palace (bur) / Wolves (shu)
Man Utd (lut)
West Ham (bur)
Brentford (lut)
Fulham (nfo)
Wolves (nfo)
It won't get that far but this is my plan through to GW17. My game has a wild card that you play that sees you through if your selection gets a draw, probably use that next week.
No. Villa very popular this week, but is already sent West Ham so cmon Luton (soz).

Damn.
Good luck James.

£680 prize pot has rolled over.
Starts again this week. Should be over quickly thanks to the rush of Christmas games. More expected to join too so could be close to £1500 prize this time round.
What’s the plan @-james-?

Blood bath this week. 70 eliminated, 26 progress to round 4.

Dead

Useless vampire cunt.
Another rollover prize is starting to get unreal
I'm a twit
Did some absolute maniac pick Chelsea this weekend?
Absolute bloodbath.
Wow. So the big game I play is up to £2135 “minimum” prize money (whatever that means) and was down to two people left this weekend. Bournemouth drew so the last lad needs West Ham to win, who are currently losing 2-0 to Burnley. He’s backed the draw and Burnley win £100 on each, so he’s up either way, but it’s looking like yet another rollover.
What’s the play @-james-

I've just entered a game as well. This looks like the optimal path at the moment, though it depends on whether the midweek games in 34 are fair game
30: Chelsea (BUR)
31: Liverpool (SHU)
32: Man City (cry)
33: Brentford (SHU)
34: Man Utd (SHU)
35: Newcastle (SHU)
36: Arsenal (BOU)
37: Everton (SHU)
38: Spurs (SHU)
Chelsea first up and backing City against one of their few bogey teams? Bold.
30: Spurs (LUT)
31: Liverpool (SHU)
32: Chelsea (shu)
33: Man City (LUT)
34: Man Utd (SHU)
35: Newcastle (SHU)
36: Arsenal (BOU)
37: Everton (SHU)
38: ?
This is marginally better I think actually depending on the likelihood of making it to 38. Acca will pay about 7/1 to that point.
I’ve gone Bournemouth (eve).
Will copy your second list once Everton are successfully dispatched tomorrow.
I'm a twit
Gone Arsenal like a mad man.
Bet you glad you switched from Chelsea to Spurs
I'm a twit
Yep, cheers niko. Over half the field out.
Dropping like flies with all these draws.
I'm a twit
You were warned.
I'd do it again. :shrug,:
Surely even the data at this point suggests that Chelsea are a bit of a punt in any situation.
I generally just try minimize the odds of getting to the number of matches I expect the game to run for. Chelsea were the joint second shortest team this week (City 1.35, Spurs/Chelsea 1.42, Arsenal 1.52, Liverpool 1.59, Everton 1.75), but in hindsight there was a pretty good case for Arsenal/Everton (considering I was looking at picking them much later and I'm not sure the game will get there).
