Pnoon continued his storied fall (quit watching arsenal damnit) from the top 3 down to # 6 with St Lou Stu, Jason and T.Tripoli in front of him. The dynamic duo of JDB and Dan'lboone hold down spots 2 and 1 respectively.

So far in November Aldukes and St Lou Stu lead the scoring with 111 and 117 points... so far.

My 55 point lead is shrinking... William Gallas continues to lose points starting 6 times with my squad and allowing 10 goals... scoring 1 and having 2 cautions. he's getting dropped.. (which means he'll probably score, have a clean sheet etc.. I guess I'm going to have to start scoring some points... come on TORRES! I know that if I pick up Kuyt he'll stop scoring.

Drogba picked up a 3 match ban for hurling a coin back at the burnley fans..
Young Star Theo Walcott, poor bastard, dislocated his shoulder in training for the England Squad.
