Oh well, things can only get better

Yup I had the Cole problem as well! Looks like hes suspended until Mid Sept too!

Its a marathon not a sprint, game of two halve, sick as a parrot

etc.

I do seem to be the only one near the bottom without Rooney. Lets hope he keeps up his world cup form

One liverpool "fan" has 102 pts after game one. Not a single liverpool player in his squad!

To be fair that knob-head Drogba skewed the distribution somewhat.

He's obviously a good judge of players. Club loyalties don't win Fantasy football points.

Rather encouragingly of the Canadian Competitors there is a team by the name of "Canadian Maple Leafs" sitting at present on 2 points.(with Man U game to come)

The full 100M was spent in that squad, unlike the other guy at the bottom.

Makes me feel better anyway, unless they set out for lowest score, in which case they are in the lead

Hmmm. I suspect my managerial strategy of picking the team while drunk will come back to haunt me. Roll on the transfer window.

Consolation, of course, that this is only the EPL, and not the important football league.

I thought this was the important one. How can you call a competion the Champion's LEAGUE when you don't have to be your domestic league winner to qualify, and only one round is in league format, the rest being knockout games?

If they renamed it the League Winners and Runner's-up Cup it'd be more accurate.

Ha - once I'd got a squad of 15 Scottish players, what fun I could have with the other $99 million...!

Is that the one where the trophy is just sent from one side of Glasgow to the other at the end of each season, and everyone else just plays to see who comes third?
