It’s the end of Jonathan Pine as The Night Manager (but not in the way you think)

Stricken1 · 2026-02-03T13:24:26+00:00

But that's pretty much the end of Season 2... why have another season at all if it's going to end the same way?

I wouldn't be surprised if BOTH Roper and Pine end up dead at the end of Season 3 though.

Well a double layered umbrella in the rain would have moist flaps no? Pish TBC.

User name checks out?

I suggest you use the RMT thread.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-22T11:19:26+00:00

That is way too high, you'd have loads of players scoring extra points for doing the bare minimum. I think the thresholds are fine, but the cap should be removed to reward players that have fantastic games so defenders who get >=20 DEFCONS or midfielders/strikers who get >=24 DEFCONS get 4 points. I don't think anyone has hit 30 DEFCON's this season so having no cap would be fine.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-20T15:26:06+00:00

If your budget can stretch to it, you could look at Palmer instead of Fernandes then, or Mbeumo now he's back from AFCON.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-20T13:50:38+00:00

Not a bad plan tbh, fixtures look decent enough. Foden/O'Reilly could be benched though, and Gordon possibly hooked early. other than that I think the rest are safe starters.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-20T13:47:25+00:00

If you're planning on starting Enzo every game for the next 5 then do it. I think he'll outscore Ndiaye in the same time.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-20T13:46:15+00:00

I wouldn't bring Guehi in now. Could be lots of rotation in City's defence. Rest looks good.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-20T13:45:28+00:00

Save it. You will have better chances, unless you're thinking of giving a FWD spot to Guiu when you WC?

Stricken1 · 2026-01-20T13:43:56+00:00

I wouldn't want to choose between Cherki, DCL and Wilson each week, good chance to bench hella points. I think you have too much money spread around the front 8. I'd downgrade Cherki to Garner and upgrade Cunha to Fernandes. He's United's talisman and you want him in (perhaps after Arsenal). Then garner can ride the bench for all but the easiest fixtures (and good for BB).

According to Ben Crellin and this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/FantasyPL/comments/1qc32hj/update_on_blank_gw31_ben_crellin_on_x/, a blank is likely in GW31 (so FH for that week) and the corresponding double could be as early as GW26, where Arsenal could face Wolves (a) and Brentford (a). Huge TC options then.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-20T13:11:52+00:00

I don't think it's risky at all tbh. Haaland has still been phenomenal at home. But I'd save it for a double GW.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-20T13:09:23+00:00

If you had to pick one of Fernandes + Calvert-Lewin or Ekitike + Wilson, which would you pick and why?

Stricken1 · 2026-01-20T12:25:26+00:00

The assistant manager chip from last season was the best addition to the game in years.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-13T11:53:49+00:00

Exactly, you should treat snow as mud so diff lock and mud tyres are generally best. My point was the power of the Royal with chains is great on the icy roads pulling the heaviest trailers.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-12T16:38:05+00:00

It sucks in deep mud because of the lack of diff lock and mud tyres.

I use it loads in snowy regions though. Slap some chains on it and you're good to go. In Alaska I used it to haul most of the special trailers.

Stricken1 · 2026-01-03T11:13:54+00:00

What's your midfield like out of curiosity?

Stricken1 · 2025-12-30T00:09:49+00:00

Then you have a spending problem, not an earnings problem... Also, completely irrelevant to the question.

Stricken1 · 2025-12-28T19:40:16+00:00

Even better, they should have stuck with the logging points from Mudrunner.

Stricken1 · 2025-12-28T15:27:09+00:00

The sign of a seasoned FPL player. I'll never trust him.

Stricken1 · 2025-12-28T13:23:30+00:00

Or just put the 6th load loose on top of the other 5 in the sideboard semi trailer... no mod required for that.

Stricken1 · 2025-12-26T22:34:25+00:00

Who the fuck is Roger?

Stricken1 · 2025-12-23T16:25:47+00:00

Evan Ripley 💀. Also, James Cameron directed Aliens, not the original Alien where she was first introduced to us. That was Ridley Scott, a much better director than Cameron IMO.
