... I was able to change it in the end too.
'bout 2 o clock I logged on to buy Austin and I was able to change captaincy which I wasn't able to do a few hours earlier.

Are the points calculated on this the same as the official game? I see Silva wasn't given the first assist.

Unfortunately not.

I have Bolasie in my sky sports team and he got 2 points yesterday but in the premier league fantasy football he was awarded assists twice yesterday. Very annoying

2nd Row Donkey · 26-05-2015 10:30am

So..... final positions.

Had a bad February & March and started to turn it around in April but alas I finished 2nd in my main private league. Just couldn't seem to get the captaincy picks right no matter what I did.

Final OR position 4959 so just scrapped into the top 5k having been inside the top 3k most of the season.

Came 85th in the spurs supporters league

FSA league back up and running for 2015/2016. Last season participants should receive an email inviting ye to re-join, otherwise the league PIN is 8044387

Only thing i'd ask if you're going to sign up, is to make at least some effort to post on the thread here, as it's nice to know who's who with these leagues

Cheers

ill join again. Find it very hard to keep up the interest in it after xmas.

L.S.F · 16-07-2015 3:12pm

I'll sign up again, not usually at a computer at the weekend so lose out on captain changes a good bit and therefore points and lose interest after a while unlike the FPL site where there is a deadline. I presume I finished bottom last season! Will still give it a bash tho!

2nd Row Donkey · 16-07-2015 6:58pm

I'm in like flynn.

Bit disappointed that there hasn't been any changes to the rules or format (from the brief look I took at it last night).

finnharpsboy · 16-07-2015 7:20pm

Like the others i lost interest also but ill give it another go this year

First draft

If you're on the PC you can download gyazo which is a screen grab software tool that lets you crop photos. Download it and follow the instructions, it's quite easy to use.

Jeju · 29-07-2015 2:14pm

I will get cracking on this tonight. Think I came second last year.

I'm on an android phone but thanks anyway.
I'll Google it ... can't be too hard.

Should have said android phone in your original post.
Anyway, power button and down on sound button.

Yes thanks. No problem taking the screen shots. The damn phone takes a tonne of them by itself. It'd the posting of the screen shot that I was struggling with.

I'm also using the boards app as opposed to the mobile website if that matters.

I use flikr to host my photos and paste the URL the same way as posting URLs.

Edit: you're using the app, not sure how it works so.

2nd Row Donkey · 29-07-2015 11:01pm

Cheers. I tried the FAQS. Its got instructions for posting pics using urls but it must be only for use via a browser as I tried it and it didn't work via the App.

2nd Row Donkey · 29-07-2015 11:03pm

Test from touch.boards.ie

Edit.

Hmmm. Well thats a step in the right direction. Sort of.

No idea why I chose a picture of a man u jersey. Not a fan.

Edit again.

Well I f**ked it up again. Jayzus

gormdubhgorm · 31-07-2015 2:56am

I signed up Ag Imirt "Pelle" is my team I always get caught out with the captain changes in this game. Maybe I need to set reminders on my phone or is that OTT?

Second in the Boards league.

Boyne1919 · 02-08-2015 7:28pm

Just having a read over the rules in regards to captain changes. One question. Once I pick my opening captain and if he plays Saturday, am I afforded one change to someone on the Sunday/Monday without using a transfer? Think I've the rest understood, just unsure about the opening week. Thanks.

manual_man · 02-08-2015 8:12pm

Yeah Boyne1919 I think we can do that

manual_man · 02-08-2015 8:22pm

There's a facility on this to set up your own private paid league (you decide the amount). Has anyone used it?

Jeju · 05-08-2015 11:16pm

Ok, ready to go with this. I am leaving as is until tomorrow night and maybe a few tweaks. Best of luck to all.

2nd Row Donkey · 05-08-2015 11:21pm

Not at all.

I have a football app that gives me a warning 15 mins before every aingle epl kickoff as well as the usual goal, red card, half times, full times etc.

Edit

Premier League Live it's called.

14 teams it looks like we're at unless we get any late sign-ups. How are our teams looking?

finnharpsboy · 08-08-2015 11:59am

going with this

Panti
Gomez Walker Kelly
Mahrez Sidwell Hazard Walcott Sterling

The Ali gamble didn't pan out and at 4m there is little or no one to replace him with

manual_man · 08-08-2015 12:35pm

Abdi(3.5) should see game time though is a doubt for this weekend i think

Scorpion Sting · 08-08-2015 12:53pm
