I could do with one of those, swap you for a Lampard?What's with this sticker thing? 3 Ferdinands in my first pack.
Good work I've an evening planned with the squad lists and a large sheet of paper to finalise my selection.
Jaffa Cake,
Important things first, I'll swap.
Second - you mention a captain; does the selection exist?
Cheers,
OW

I actually meant to ask that as well - because I couldn't find a way to do it either. And I'm anxious to set Wayne Rooney as my Captain before the games begin.
This was baffling me earlier. I'm certain that when I was reading through the rules there was mention of assigning a captain, but checking earlier today (ie, when I had my squad picked and had worked out who to hand the armband to) there's no way to assign the role, nor is there any mention of it in the rules.
So apologies, it looks like I got wrong-headed on that one.
Meanwhile, the final Sporting Car Flags squad has been confirmed, the players have had their numbers assigned and are actively avoiding the local cuisine.

The dancers are taking their positions ready for our opening ceremony...
...which can only mean we're a short time away from the start of the competition. Good luck everyone!

Same thought after every opener; all my planning!
Edit - dag nab it, Dzagoev should've scored 3! Protest in about Giannis Maniatis showing as 0 minutes.
Edit 2 - 'The Return of the Minutes'

Glad that I built my first round defence around Teutonic efficiency, Herr Neuer and Herr Lahm did me proud with a clean sheet.
We'll see what today's matches do to our fortunes, I can imagine the Spanish players being rather popular...

I see that you're currently in the 'pachyderm position' at the foot of the table.

silly me thought that the netherlands showed up serious and portugal at least manages to score as well :roll eyes:
that did cost me massive points
Worry not, there's the points fest that is England coming up on Monday. Fill your remaining places with our players and you'll storm to the top of the table.

at one pint i had 33 points then it went down to 29 and now 28... wtf? and this is after all the matches are done for the day. =(
Which player(s) were affected, do you know?
I suspect the 'live' score was amended for some reason, such as perhaps a player being given an assist but in review another player got the vital touch, or a player having points deducted for a goal that is later shown to be an own goal. I know from playing a couple of other ESPN fantasy games here that they frequently update the scores after games have finished, so I would guess this is the explanation.
