They sent out an email to say that people could make free unlimited wildcard transfers to make up for the issue.
I’ll be making some use of that I think :)
That said, its a long season so I’ll probably still pick a lousy team (no offence to lousy btw :) )
Their game engine probably suffered when they updated to the “new look”. All along the weekend I unsuccessfully tried to log on and check the stats. Although I know how to type my log in details (duh… :lol: ) it was constantly saying – incorrect username or password. Never happened in previous years. At least I had time to get rid of the players from the postponed Spurs match. Many thanks to the looters :( . I guess their free transfer handout was to compensate for something that most the players are doing before Gameweek 2 – using one of the wildcards to change a dodgy (lousy, no offence lousy :D ) team. I wouldn’t worry about resetting the team scores. In 38 Gameweeks there is enough time to catch up.
As mark pointed out, unlimited transfers til sat is reward enough. And I’m not penalising the people who did not leave it til the last minute to do up their team. :)
