    Think Charlie is getting mixed up there and is actually referring to the European Fantasy Tour comp.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,742 ✭✭✭✭Wichita Lineman


    Doesnt it normally start with The Masters?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 62 ✭✭rudboy


    I'd say either Saturday's Times or monday's will have the big spread on it.....

    I was fairly confident as I've done the exact same thing, i.e given up on that other league too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,229 ✭✭✭qwabercd


    Have they taken down the 2013 version they had up and running?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 393 ✭✭CheltenhamJ


    Don't think it has started or is running , cant see any promotion/adverts etc

    Got in contact with the Times,

    'The Fantasy Golf 2013 competition will commence on May 9th this year. The
    website should be live in two weeks time.'

    So will probably last longer towards the end of the season....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2 titusthefirst


    I loaded a team as far back as the 8th March and in the 7 days after, I changed the team a few times..using the link,,16th March nothing..cant get my team at all..since then...rumour has it the papers adventure into fantasy premiership. has been a disaster..

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 118 ✭✭markpauldunne

    That is total rubbish, The Irish Times Fantasy Premiership game is a huge success and excellently ran, has the best part of ten thousand entrants and nice prizes.

    So which part of that is "rumoured" to be a disaster titusthefirst?

    Obviously you aren't in the competition.

    Going by the Fantasy Sports forum it was awful (didn't enter it myself). Was very disappointed with the format of the fantasy golf last year in comparison with the old format, way less skill involved.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2 Geronimo_Joe


    qwabercd, had a look at the fantasy forums and there is nothing there to suggest the game is "awful".

    My friends and I have been playing the game all season and we all agree it is a very well structured game and well ran and I would say that is the opinion of 99.9 % of entrants.

    I would like someone to post on this forum what they found "awful" with the game and not just give a completely subjective opinion.

    On the subject of the Irish Times fantasy golf, what "skill" was involved pre- last year that wasn't involved last year?

    Set up a team, then realized that one of my players is not playing today so I don't want to have to create another team.

    You can make unlimited changes to your team up until the first tee time today


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,742 ✭✭✭✭Wichita Lineman


    IIRC after changing team personnel last night it says the password is 'golf' which you have to use today if you are making any changes but it is still unlimited transfers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 262 ✭✭LinksLad


    Over 40 names on the board for this. Good turnout, and room for more.
    Best of luck to all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 208 ✭✭Rastadoyle
