EPL Fantasy Alert

[chris m]

Merry xmas all. Just to alert those playing EPL fantasy footie, that
this is a unique week. Of course its the usual double week for all
teams. But for four teams, its a triple week. Arsenal, Stoke, Fulham
and Bolton. So there is an oportunity for some boldness. But it also
assumes you have the courage to take players from the later 3 teams,
especially Bolton who I think is going down.

Also in EPL news, its being widely reported that Drogba is leaving for
the ACN on Sunday so he will have only 1 game in the double week and
miss as many as 5 total if the Ivory Coast go through. For those of us
who had him from the start at a discounted 10.68 this is a huge blow.

Because of having to drop drogba, and all this talk about the extent
Torre's groin injury (you don't want to be playing on slick pitches
with a pulled groin) I have been forced to recast my whole team.

So while I have been top of table since day one, I think its now wide
open again, new year, new game.

cheers
