I'm afraid this was posted after deadline so won't count.  Even if game is on Sunday the deadline for posting is Sat at 3pm.

It might be early days but Ya'u Ado's Zakariya FC have made a name for themselves by remaining top of the table in what was generally a tough week for most. Their below-average 43 points was enough to hold on to top spot but it is very tight at the top with just 10 points splitting the top 11 teams. The tightness only intensifies as we go further down the table.
The Manager of the Week award goes to Fabian Pereira's Tricolor21 side who picked up an impressive 87 points. Raheem Sterling being picked as the captain saw 38 points achieved alone so that was a genius decision. Bruno Fernandes also chipping in with 12 points helped the cause too.
Now, who is it that picks up the Name of Shame for this round? Despite the low average score the lowest score in the Punters Lounge Fantasy Football League was far from the worst we've seen down the years. The unwanted accolade goes to Pat Somers and their Garage Band FC.
Unfortunately, the brutal nature of this league means that you can have the coolest team name going yet still not be immune to a barrage of abuse! Salt has been rubbed into the wound for our Pat with 10 points sitting on the bench. Pedro Porro wondering what on earth he's got to do to get into the starting XI! Let's aim for more than 19 points next week, Pat! Otherwise, we might have to give you an abusive gif! 
Top-flight football makes a return to Kenilworth Road on Friday night as Luton take on West Ham in an 8 pm BST kick-off. Anyone brave enough to add Hatters players to their team in anticipation of a shock win? Bet365 are offering 15/4 on a home win and 3/1 on Carlton Morris to score anytime. I will send endless amounts of respect to the manager who shoves him in their team if he scores. If he doesn't, well... you've only got yourself to blame! 
Anyway, the deadline for this coming week's games is 6:30 pm BST on Friday 1st September. Get your transfers done before then! All the best! 

We are back with the 2023/24 Punters Lounge Football Tipsters Challenge Competition.
Season One 23/24 starts with this weekend's matches including the Friday night games of 18th August.  Odds and selection threads should be up on Thursday. 
Our football year will have 3 mini seasons of 10 weeks again with a week (or two) in between aiming to end close to the actual end of Season in May.  Due to the number of drop outs we tend to get (and to reduce admin a little) I'm going to increase the size of Divisions from 15 to around 20, which will mean we'll likely have 6 Divisions overall with most of the rejoiners and newbies in Div 6.  Depending on uptake this year I might need to extend Div 5 and 6 to allow everyone in.
I'm looking at the prize structure with the intention of paying 4 places in the top 2 Divisions and 3 places in the others.  Will update before kick off.
All previous rules apply, including the All In option at £10 bank.
Everyone who completed last season will be automatically allocated to a Division as usual based on finishing bank.  Everyone else, please post in the new player thread HERE - I'll remind All In Busteds to reapply; No shows need to reapply; New players welcome to join in. 

You're there in 48th overall

thanks @Fader

Yeah it's been an awful match so far from Van Assche at 6-4 3-1 down. Doesn't look that interested to me & is missing some very easy shots. This looks like it's going to be a loss unfortunately unless he can cut out the errors. Molcan has been pretty solid as well which also doesn't help.

When we resume after the break, I'll try to be clearer.
Next year's thread will be different, with a clearer view of the results.
As far as 2022 is concerned, I'm currently at +£13.58.
The idea with the deposits is to build up a solid bank (£2000) in order to make some nice trades. 
But because of my problems, I'll only have £1000 to start next year.
Deposits will continue until £2000. 
Profits will be higher with a bigger bank.

Very hard to keep track of profit/loss on a thread where extra money is added to the initial bank every now and again. Just so we know where we're up to (me and any other avid followers!) how far are you up or down in terms of actual trading profit or loss so far?

Hi everyone!
Some news on this topic, which isn't dead.
As I've already said, it's a very complicated time financially, and from a sporting point of view there's no time to trade.
This thread will come to an end on 31 December and then we can evaluate the situation.
That said, the business plan has changed completely, because I haven't been able to make deposits every month.
The bank is still £513 and I'll be making the next deposits in November and December (£200 + £300), so that I can start 2024 with around £1k for the trade.
If I can deposit more money, I will deposit more.
The 2024 targets will be set later.
For 2023, the objective will no longer be to make +3% per month, but just to learn to trade well.
The topic has been changed as a result of my financial problems.
Another year lost, but the main thing is to keep going and persevere.
See you soon for the return of the football leagues. Around 15 August.
Happy holidays to those lucky enough to go.

Viktoria Azarenka to beat Nadia Podoroska 2-0 at 1.80 with Bet365
Podoroska had the luck of drawing the incredibly shaky Martincova in the first round, but she'll be up against a tougher challenge here, and I hated her performance against Navarro when I last saw her, that was just dreadful. Azarenka isn't the force she's once been anymore, but this is a complete mismatch, and she could build on her round one performance here.
Marketa Vondrousova to beat Veronika Kudermetova at 2.28 with Unibet
Kudermetova had a hard time against Kanepi in the previous round, and she seems not to be fully fit to me. If there's any truth to that, she'll find it hard against Vondrousova, who looked very good against Stearns in the first round, producing some real stunners and just outplaying her fairly talented opponent. No reason to have Kudermetova as the fav here imo. 

Keys to beat Kartal 2-0 at 1.67 with Bet365
Keys in great form winning the title last week. Bit of rest and now against Kartal who is multiple levels below Keys, in her first MD match here. She won't deal with Keys' serve and will be like a rabbit in headlights. 

Thank you 

Thank you 

Be better if you put the pretty much universal "U21". "-21" is confusing as it makes it look like a handicap line suggesting a different sport altogether. 

Group A is where the action is today. Co-hosts Georgia top the group with 4 points after beating Portugal 2-0 and drawing 2-2 with Belgium. They play the Netherlands who drew 0-0 with Belgium and 1-1 with Portugal. A win sees Georgia top the group and a draw would seem them through in 2nd place at worst. It's hard to fancy my antepost picks the Dutch at a short price tonight. I think Georgia score and get at least the draw they need to see them through to the knockout stage.
Belgium should have what it takes to see off Portugal and go through with Georgia. 11/5 to win not the worst bet, maybe 6/5 DNB if you want a bit of a safety net.
Both of these games not a bad shout for cards though I've not checked out the ref appointments yet. Will have a look while awaiting the confirmed line ups (these games are both at 5:00 with the Group B games being 7:45 kick offs).

Hello my Punter Lounge friends 😎
I'm having a bit of a slow period at the moment, with very little football and sports that aren't too easy for my style of play.
What's more, I'm going through a very bad period in my personal life. The economic crisis is really hurting me and I'm really not in good mood, because it's very complicated.
It's a real shame, because betting is going rather well, much better than in recent years when I lost a lot of money because of tilts!
But everything will be back to normal in a few months' time.
I had to take the decision not to deposit any money for a few months in order to sort out my personal problems. It's an important decision.
So this topic will continue, but without any deposits for the time being.
As soon as I can, I'll start depositing again.

The objective will be to continue to make trades and learn to play well to continue on the good way to start the year 2024 💪

Sorry . I missed 😔
