Ian Royal Buy:
Forest = -17.5 :oops:
Saints = +16 8)
Watford = -0.5 meh.

Sell:
Coventry = +13 8)
Ipswich = +10 8)
Brizzle = +5.5 8)


Total of +26.5 if I've managed to work it out properly, which is certainly not a given. That's pretty good. Forest have really let me down. Awful call.

Silver Fox Shouldn't this be in competitions

BUY

Boro 65 +11
Pompey 60 -2.5
Palace 55 +6.5

SELL

Southampton 66 -18 :oops:
Bristol C 57 +5.5
Doncaster 50 +4


+6.5 then

The south coast is fvcking me over somewhat :oops: If this was real I'd obviously be hoping for Pompey to be liquidated rather than have a points deduction

Speaking of which, in real life if Pompey are liquidated, thus reducing the season to 44 games, these totals are all moot aren't they?

My buys were:

Southampton, predicted 8th at 66/68, currently 2nd on 56pts
Leicester, predicted 2nd at 72/74, currently 12th on 43pts
Palace, predicted 22nd at 53/55, currently 14th on 40pts

My sells were:

Millwall, predicted 14th at 61/63, currently 20th on 31pts
Forest, predicted 5th at 69/71, currently 23rd on 25pts
Reading, predicted 4th at 70/72, currently 6th on 51pts

Leicester still letting me down, although Palace have gone backwards from the last update so not looking quite as healthy there either.

Thankfully Reading also looking to be an unwise choice.

Mr Angry
Mr Angry BUY:

Derby: Better than their points tally showed last season, i think they are top 10 next season. 57
Pompey: Had a season adjusting to this level, will push on next. 57.5
Peterboro: Not as bad as some others down the bottom; will pick up points at home.56

SELL:

Forest: Will need to readjust to life with a new manager 53.5
Millwall: Over-valued; they had their season of surprise last season and will struggle next 54
Ipswich: It will take a while to bed in all these new players and to get the blend right; without Wickham, they will be much weaker.57



My sells are looking ok, but my buys are pretty well average. Mid table mediocrity for Mr Angry I fear....



Arse.

Total: -58
