Not likely to happen anyway. I would argur though that the <75% ers should be shown lower in the table than others who have less points. For e.g El Pibe can not longer reach the magical 75% as there are not enough weeks left. Don't mind me though. I just like rules.As for the Cup, I still don't get that. If you only have 8 entries and have 8 q/finalists, everyone qualifies and makes the 3rd,4th and 5th rounds of the cup pointless. I know someone will tell me what I've missed.

Huguenot Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 The only challenge you might have is if those who can't hit the magic 75% lose interest :(The option's still open to multiply final score (not including maxxis) by percentage of games played, even if it drives Jah wild.I wish I could play but I know sweet fanny adams about football.

red devil Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I would need to go back and look at what was exactly said about the 75% rule. I do know that you needed 75% as an incentive to take part in the Cups, but that has since changed. You have to remember this wasn't plannned, it just sort of evolved. The maxxi only came about because people joined later than others. Next season, if it's retained, the maxxi will be adjusted to take into account average scores over the whole of this season. Hopefully next season it will be a lot simpler and clearer, especially as everyone will start at the same time. Actually you're right, if there were only 8 teams the earlier rounds would be dead ducks. I should've said we need at least 9 teams. Luckily we have at least 9 teams, as ???? will be joining in, so at least one person will get eliminated...

red devil Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 West Ham fans obviously delighted that JC the prodigal son has returned, but I guess less enamoured at the prospect of Chamakh rolling up. If he does end up in the East End, he's going to have to do something with that hair...

Jah Lush Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Fair dos. I just hope Joe Cole can stay fit and get a good run in the West Ham side. He's a player I've always admired and enjoy watching him go about his work. Hammers fans must be well happy about his return to the club.

Personally I have more hope for the young Waterford striker, Sean Maguire (no, not the Eastenders actor) working his way into the first team.
