    It's going to be a very painful week if the wheels come off at Newcastle for the Bell.

    Should Dwight Gayle be the first to get a ban for diving even if he was offside, but clearly trying to claim a penalty

  10. Yes, he should be.

    The FA need to show they mean business. Make an example of him.

    I did it before it all kicked off really. I also put Siggy in for the assists but he's acting like a pre-schooler too! I haven't done it before, it's a league they've got at my wife's work so she entered it but I picked the team as she hasn't got a clue so I'm not sure what the rules are in swapping players out at the end of the transfer window

    Clearly jumps across the player looking for a penalty but no doubt everyone will claim contact was made lol

    What's the deal with the end of the transfer window and swapping players?
    Tbf if they both get their moves they'll probably still have top seasons. I have high hopes for Kane, Eriksen, Vardy, De Bruyne and Kante and Can are solid

    Sounds like you're playing a different one to me, I play the official one and there's no transfer windows as such.

    I think it's the official one but like I say it's the first time I've done it. I figure there must be a chance to make changes as if between picking the squad at the start of August and the end of August you had 2/3 players left to go abroad (Coutinho for example) you'd be stuffed. Or would you just get a chance to replace players if they left?

    Newcastle and Spurs goalless at ht.

    Sounds like a scrappy affair with not a lot in the way of chances.

    Pretty much it. Newcastle working very hard, too much slow play and dithering on the ball by Spurs.

    Michael Reid: Just look at the Spurs bench. I don't get why they haven't bought a single player this window. Madness.
