PES/FIFA Forum-Premier League Fantasy Football

Axwell

Right lads as some of you know fantasy football is back this season..theres a boards league in place at the minute over on the soccer thread for more info.

In the mean time i thought it would be good to setup one for those of us playing in the leagues here for our own little competition.

Ive set it up and will post the code below. For those not familiar with fantasy football have a look at http://fantasy.premierleague.com/

I am only opening it to people already playing in our league hence why im posting it here and not starting a new thread, also as this is not the soccer forum please dont post a hundred replies about who you are picking etc etc..the place for that is the soccer forum but as i said im setting this up just for our group.

So if you are interested sign up and use the code to join..
The rules i have are simple, pm me when you have joined with your team name and gamertag so i know who you are..so we dont have any joinging that arent in our league..and also please dont post here about it as its not a fifa/xbox related issue but I have no choice to post it here so you are aware of it. If FG gives the go ahead for me to setup a thread seperate for it thats fine but for now ill just post here in the hope you can all avoid posting any more about it. If you have any questions pm me instead.

Code to join this league: 177179-63773

We do need a thread somewhere to discuss it tho. Any suggestions? It would probably get lost on Soccer forum. Don't see why it couldnt be posted here, as its league related.

And joe ive used fantasy presmierleague before and it is great. But you get 1 free transfer a week which is a bit nonsense tbh. Every year, I pick the best team. Then the eejits in my league who make mistakes and end up with players injured / not starting / playing poorly etc.....cheat by just transferring in the form players. Its pointless because people teams they start with are nothing like the team they end with and proves nothing. Call me a purist, but imo you should get maybe 3 transfers in January and thats it.

For those that didnt see it cos its back a few pages and theres no sign of the unnecessary posts being cleared up heres a reminder about the fantasy football league i setup....

Fantasy Football..

Cheers to those that have joined, so far we have 11 teams but im hoping the rest of you sign up, it will be good craic. Some of you still have to send me a pm with your team name so I know who you are (see below).

Torres Scorres
Carrigans Celtic
Wadelai FC
Ray Finkles XI

Also there has been some interest in putting some money in a pot, €10 a head seems to be the general consensus with winner takes all at the end. It makes it much more exciting and interesting and with 11 involved so far it could be a nice pot for someone to win. All the money will have to be paid in advance and a list of those that have paid will be posted before the season kicks off, no late payments will be accepted. Paypal is probably the handiest way to organise it I would say. Maybe those interested could just post and give a yes below so we can see.

Axwell, take it away!

I'm definately on for the tenner a man.

Y2J_MUFC

My team is in the works, I'm currently -25 million

BFassassin

Im sure I could manage to throw a tenner into a pot too.

Axwell

Just to clarify, as the thread title FG has put up is a bit confusing. This Fantasy Football League is only open to those currently playing in the Fifa Xbox leagues. Anyone not from there will be removed on the opening day.

We have 13 teams now..keep them coming lads

joe123

Ive joined this. How would paying or recieving the money work? Ive never used pay pal? It would make it more interesting having a bit of money in it too.

Axwell

Money is paid to me before the league starts either by paypal or by lodging it to my bank account. No late payments are allowed so its money upfront to make sure no one says later oh ill pay now or whatever. At the end ill lodge the money to the winners account or by paypal.

winston82

I'm signed up. I'll also do a tenner

Reganovski

I'll pay a tenner too

Now a question, lets say they are 20 entrants and each pay a tenner. Thats €200. Will you pay the interest you earn over the next 9-10 months to the winner as well?
.......only joking!!:D

Yeah..... and why not do the "I know the score" thing while we are at it?

I struggled to pick my team.... even with a modest enough squad I ended up with minus 5.5 million.

Kirby

Yeh, i'm in for a tenner. should be good fun. Gonna have to set some time aside to build my team today. It's a science, it is!

yeah, can a mod not just delete that ****e.

Right lads teams have to be in by Sunday for this with a pm sent to me to say your team name...It doesnt start till the Sat after but im locking it once the season starts so there is no late entries so you have been warned to get your team in now.

I will be pmming people with my paypal and bank details that are interested in putting a tenner in the pot to make things a bit interesting, there is a list a few pages back of those who have said they would.

Anyone else interested in joining and/or putting a tenner in the pot nows your last chance. The money will have to be in by next Wednesday to be counted which means no late entries or people saying they will pay the tenner a week or two into the competition.

Lads apparently if you send the money through Paypal as a gift there arent the normal fees associated with transferring it via paypal so if you could use that option. Cheers.

No, but there is a suspicious 70KG package on its way there by courier now

BFassassin

That 3% will add up when your sending all the money back to me axwell

Axwell

You should be more worried about my 50% organisers fee
