Too many Mancs being picked here*

*Now that Denis Irwin has gone, that's the last of the more palatable ones I was considering :P

Did I see someone say Giggs had been picked. I thought this was a family friendly draft?

Irwin was on my list because he could play left or right so my pickings have got even slimmer. But not sure I could have brought myself to pick him anyway!

Only had one Manc on my list --- and he's not yet been picked.

Manc twats are getting no love from this yank wankplank

**** Amended: only minutes after some (fill in the blank of putdowns) made this statement untrue.

Must be a newbie.

Actually there's another one I just thought of and would possibly have picked but given that I just picked Hamann, can't really pick him now. And he used to play for us so it kind of cancels out.

There are eight people before me as I go to bed. That means in order to guarantee getting two players when my turn comes, I need to come up with 18 players.

Please don't fuck me over in the morning, I'll be on at 4pm UK time, hopefully a little before.

I’m not the judge, I don’t mind really but better see what others say. Was it a different keeper or a different position entirely?

Tends to be you can change your pick up until the next pick. Then it gets a bit complicated if others were going to pick your original one.

Different position, I don't want to point the finger elsewhere but we were waiting for PiM (twice), then defacto sent me a very aggressive pm, encouraging me to get on with it ;) ... and i seem to have skipped my next pick and gone to the big dane.

It's ok I can sweat it out and wait

I'm sure I'm missing a bunch of them, but it feels like centre backs are looking thin on the ground.

I do not want to wake up Saturday morning with only Lee Dixon as a viable option.

He wasn't that bad actually but his best attribute was waving for offisde in sync with Bould, Winterburn and the Donkey.

Was quite hoping for a Jones-McManaman team up, but never likely with you two around!

Been bricking it for the last two rounds hoping the frizzy haired midfield maestro Valderrama would last. Midfield options are barren. I'm guessing people were scared off with him bridging two decades, but he was at his best at World Cup 90 and drove Colombia's golden era right through to World Cup 98. No cheese here  ;)
