Are you quitting then Chillada? I presume you are, if so the draft is over. Can't exactly play with 15 participants. Would need someone to take over your team at short notice. Not sure whether we'll be able to find someone by today. He's hardly gonna quit over that. |

Just a communication error really, not anyone's fault. |

Hmm he could just mean thanks for doing this but you got that wrong? Maybe he thought he had Gerrard and is looking for his next pick? I dunno. This is confusing.

I think he may have just said thanks so there was a positive in his message and not just a moan. He'll be on soon to pick no doubt. Does he have a twitter handle? |

I have to say I love this. I had one thing in mind when I started, however the lack of decent wingers (IMO at least, especially on the right) is causing me to re-think and try to devise a new tactic. Just got one player to try and fit in, but it's what type of player

He does but don't think he uses it much. Only other way to catch him is on TFPL. I'm not sure when he'll be on, or whether he'll pick again if he does come on.

It's not Demi's mistake.
If you're gonna commit to a draft like this, need to be on this site and or twitter etc at least semi-actively, surely.
Seems like a misunderstanding to me, but shouldn't be up to Demi to chase people for picks. If he quits, I'll take Nedved and Raul :-)

he's a Northerner I think, should get over it. Besides, have a look at Nedved between 00 and 04, the best compliment I can pay him is I think he was so good that Juventus barely missed Zidane. Such an honest crossing of wires too, and obvious how it happened. As an ex Argos employee (calm down ladies, there's only one of me) it reminds me of an awkward situation where the customer is always right even if it's 50-50 or you think they're at fault. Just give Chillada Radebe for free as an inconvenience offering  |

Are you on Twitter or FFS, tugayisgod?
I'll give it a while to see if he really has quit. Don't want to have another misunderstanding. If it's the case, i'd happily let you take over his team assuming you'll be pretty active in the picking.

I think its unfair to assume he's quit yet as you could read his post either way. Shall we wait the 24 hours and if he hasn't posted either way by then then tugay can fill in? In the meantime if somebody could try and catch him on tfpl? Or did you just want to kick on now?

I'll have to get back to you once i've caught up with Chillada. If he's quitting, then the spot is all yours. Will post when i know. Would be ideal if you had twitter, but i don't want to make you if it would be a bother. Out of interest, how did you find the forum? |

I've managed to track down Chillada and he's confirmed that he hasn't quit. And he's happy enough with Nedved. It was a misunderstanding, and he accepts part of the blame for it.
Sorry about that 'Tugayisgod'. If anyone else drops out, you can be first reserve for it. You're more than welcome to vote on the matches in any case. Thanks again for offering.

glad someone bit the bullet with Terry. This is a football draft not a man of the year draft and Terry has bare awards. Was starting to feel a bit like a full-kitted elephant in the room. (always wanted to say bare)
