Syd Barrett's mental illness

[Sam Slater]

I've been studying you lately Fudge, and I see you are suffering from oppbbds.

[fudgeflaps]

That's only the half of it, Sam! What about your fjkfhfhldfsklsooooooooooooooooooooooooopppppssssssssssssdsds condition?

I salute you for the dignity with which you handle it.

[Sam Slater]

I dunno. I think oppbbd (OlayPhtangPhtangBiscuitBarrell Denial Syndrome) isn't something you should take lightly.

My condition isn't so serious as it's ruled by the weather, and it very rarely rains................oh wait a minute.

[fudgeflaps]

Aaaaah, very clever, young squirrel.

Just don't get me to attempt the same on 'fjkfhfhldfsklsooooooooooooooooooooooooopppppssssssssssssdsds' !!!

Anyhoo, what's happening to you on the Fantasy Footie, I was hoping you'd be challenging for the title?

[Sam Slater]

My top two players (Elano and Fabregas) haven't played for 3 games, and selling them, to buy them back later is ridiculous.

For instance, Fabregas costs about 10.3 now, but I can only sell him for 9.9, which means to buy him back I'd have to sell another player just to afford him. The same with Elano who I can sell for 8.4, but buy him back at 8.6. Also my other top midfielder -Bentley- isn't playing because of suspension.

I sold my expensive strikers for a stronger midfield, and now 3 out of the 4 midfielders are out. I either stick with them and lose points, but hope they recover soon, or I sell my top scorers, and be unable to afford to buy them back.

It's a tricky balancing act- I sacrificed two top midfielders, Fab and Elano, for midfielders of similar quality (albeit at an expense of 4 points)- when they come back, we don't know when, it may take a couple of games for them to reach their previous form.

I'm quite happy now, a very settled 11, I only have to do transfers for injuries. Ronaldo seems to have found his form.

Still a very long way to go- I don't think the season has reached halfway yet- 16 games in? Anything can happen!
