Rarre:
Hehe
One thing is sure I go still pass you

When Bruno G was still a Newcastle player ke?

This your own procrastination get MSc oooo.
Sha run this lazy spirit back when we clash in the FA Cup.

timbros:
No be "as you said", I missed deadline. That's why you see Bruno G. for my starting line up. Infact I set up that team when he was still a Newcastle player.

Na procrastination do me till I miss deadline. This Hinshlewood and Tzolis and Semenyo dey my radar since but I no kuku tweak my team in time.

LANTERNS is starting to get my attention.

Debutant, this bant is above your security clearance.

Come back to bant me when I start seeing any thing other than 0 pts on your FA Cup profile.

Rarre:
First gw you win see as body dey sweet you

GW1 and wahala don plenty like this.

Omo this season go long oooo

After going back to check the previous thread.
Just getting to know na this yeye Admin win the FA Cup last season.

That is to tell how forgettable the win was.
Too many administrative mess-ups in the organisation of the 2025/2026 FA Cup to take the winner seriously, that is before taking recognizance of the fact that the final winner is ominously the sole cause of the administrative mess-up.


Quota system winner.

Na why you wan take our Admin life abi?

Emaprince:
Na you I expected to meet on the first day, make I collect my first 3pts as I did last season...so whoever stood on the way, should have himself to blame.

I have three points in the FA Cup and you have zero.

No dey ask me redundant questions

Shegzdave:
At the end, your GW1 was saved

iamoyindamola:
Thanks to your BB

iamoyindamola:
You go explain tire, are you having a good GW with your BB
Yes or No

Someone finally get it!

Shegzdave:
At the end, your GW1 was saved

Just to be clear... This is the genesis of the whole conversation.

iamoyindamola:
Why use BB on a terrible GW
Highest won't pass 50

timbros:
To miss deadline for GW1 mad o!

All of una wey deploy BB, I just dey look una. Well sha, this is not a sprint, it's a damn marathon!

Just to be clear....

Are you guys against the general idea of using BB in GW1 or are you disturbed about the fact that my own BB did not score me 100pts?


Because we started this discussion on the premise of the merits of GW1 BB in general till you guys started drifting to hammering on my own score in particular after seeing someone else who profited from same maneuver.
I pride myself as a logical person, I don't do muddled up conversations without bearing.

Let me know which is the main bone of contention here

Is the primary reason for deployment of chips not to mitigate unforeseen circumstances like a bad GW?


Now imagine how worse it would be without BB

Shegzdave:
Getting that points with BB is bad abeg, even without BB am on 49 with Ajao Pedro to top it tomorrow

Defending champion ke?

Who won the FA Cup last season?

Emaprince is a very disrespectful guest, he no even take into account the stress Admin went to set up this season Cups and League.

Host wey invite others to feast, you collect 3pts from him mouth on opening day.

Very bad manners.

Where is Senior Case Officer Joe?

That is why I used mine to get it out of the way as early as possible.

Saves me the stress of dead-ending my team unnecessarily in build up of using BB somewhere between GW15-20

Ibime:


That's why he is a paper tiger

While he is now wasting transfer to get a playing 2nd keeper and 3rd substitute, I'm moving on to the heavy hitters

You will soon be asked if GW1 BB is a wise choice by our resident BBC correspondent shortly.

Ibime:
31 points on my bench boost. . . . my most successful use of the chip ever

Wo, you are right jare.

Show your rank at the end of the GW and I will do same.

No stress me biko.

iamoyindamola:
Bros you have 40 with BB, I have 36 without BB
Are you having a good GW yes or no
Simple

Omo, I give up.

People just play games without knowing the underlying dynamics of what they are playing.

Na simple statistical maths dey confuse you my able Admin.

Even if the GW is a good and high scoring one according to your "understanding" and the average score is 90, if you score 85, you will drop in rank in your respective mini leagues and overall.

Now on a bad scoring GW according to your understanding, if the average is just 10 and you score as low as 20, you will rise in the ranking in your respective mini leagues.


FPL is not about scoring high, it is basically scoring more than most people, regardless of the score count.


Is it clear to you now or should I dumb it down lower?

iamoyindamola:
Calibrator say na good GW because he pass average

Who is walking away with 3pts if we had faced off in the FA Cup this GW?

I still have three more yet to play compared to your solitary Pedro who I also have by the way.

iamoyindamola:
Lol
You are on 40 with BB and I am on 36 without BB
Are you having a good or bad GW?

Are you competing against the highest score or against the average score?

Una understand mathematics and statistics at all?
If most people score 20 and you score 40, are you having a bad GW?

iamoyindamola:
Why use BB on a terrible GW
Highest won't pass 50

If you miss deadline for GW1 as you said..... Pray tell, which GW have you been preparing draft for all this while? 🤔

timbros:
To miss deadline for GW1 mad o!

All of una wey deploy BB, I just dey look una. Well sha, this is not a sprint, it's a damn marathon!

Na your own BB I suppose use to win a GW before?

iamoyindamola:
Thanks to your BB

Even if the bet is not active.


Cheers to 1/6


Who is next?

iamoyindamola:
Let's have a bet, by the end of GW 6 if you have 15 points I will give you 15k but if you don't you will give me 15k instead.
Deal?

This is the period where casuals are quickly separated from seasoned managers.
Everybody has almost the same players, at least now, some managers will be forced to make changes.



Let the knee-jerk reactions and head-lossees begin.

"You can't win FPL on the first day but you can lose it on the first day"

iamoyindamola:
Una Dan bring rpg for fist fight
Everyone already deploying the first attack (BB)
Don't forget it's a bloody marathon

To think I had Odegaard and White in my team till 30 mins to deadline.

Read again slowly Sir.

Rarre:
I nor use bench bench, it's my opponent ibime

So you don't know how to build early rank because everyone is having same template is to BB GW1?


Rookie mistake

Rarre:
FPL nor wan let me enjoy my fa cup debut. I'm facing ipukulu FC and man has already used his Bench Boost in GW1

I wan draw budget for the winning come May 2027

Bourne007:
