There seems to be a bug in TSN Premiership pages. When Club value changes by more than 999,999 TSN£ (I assume that's where the problem starts) it shows ######## instead of actual change. Are you sure your site is £1M (and $1M) compatible? :-)

Lol. I think that's an easy problem to fix. Thanks.

there is an error on today TSN points.

The match totteham-bolton was played yesterday (20th) and NOT on the 19th of october as shown on the TSN soccer game page.

Therefore the points of tottenham and bolton players are shown on the 19th of oct total and not on the 20th.

But there is a BUG. Those who buyed one of those players AFTER the 19th oct freezout but BEFORE the 20th oct one, DIDN'T GET THE POINTS!

In one of my teams i don't have the points redknapp made, and in anotherone i didn't get sheringham points.

Please correct this bug soon, thanx.

Thanks! I still haven't been able to verify if this is really fixed or not :-) but already I have another problem. Namely my team (ID = 25357) has not received points for game played at 11/4. And please don't tell me it's because my team was invalid! It was NOT! My trade history pages has this information about the date in question:

11/04 05:00am Anelka, Nicolas S £3,461,000 -
11/04 05:00am Kanu, Nwankwo S - £6,049,000

As we know, the Lineup Freeze occurs at 9am GMT, (5am ET) so obviously I was walking on a dangerous territory here (not that I knew it at a time). But one thing (two actually, although the other shouldn't matter) is plain to see:
1. When it turned 5:00 am ET my team was perfectly valid with Kanu as one of the strikers.
2. When it stopped being 5:00 am ET my team was perfectly valid with Anelka as one of the strikers.

During the one minute between the two moments my team was invalid for a few seconds. Apparently those few seconds also included the moment of the Lineup Freeze. I thought, and that's what game rules also say, that the Lineup Freeze is at 5 am ET, not at 5am ET plus a few seconds. At that moment my team was perfectly valid and thus should've received points for that day (and, I presume, also lost or gained the £££ Kanu lost or gained in that price change). Could you please look into that! Thank you!


P.S. Being a Computer Programmer myself I understand that all this kind of processing takes time and hence the "and a few seconds" part. In fact, I'm not even sure if and how this kind of situations can be avoided.

Urmas,

I think that now that the clocks have gone back in both the UK and US, 9:00 am GMT is now 4:00 am ET.
