Sent you 50 on PayPal just now. Thanks for organising.

Payment sent - Thanks!

Eoghan, can you pm us a code as you receive payment ?

Cheers

Dearg81

Can I make a boring suggestion, can we make the name of our draft teams the same as our boards ids? It will make it so much easier to track who is playing who.

eoghan104

OK League code should be sent now to everyone that is paid.

So looks like we are still looking for one more participant.

Now that the codes are going out I’ll remind all to go with their boards name as team name.

If you’re ok with that like.

Yes sorry updated now! We have our 8.

I don't think I can change my team name back but I'll try.

OK looks like we are going with 7 runners so €350 for the winner. Draft tonight at 10pm.

Sound.

Unless someone jumps in and pays today of course.

Roll up.

CSF

Mon lads, has to be someone out there who wants this prestigious 8th spot

Coybig_

Can someone explain the draft concept? Is there a budget to stick to or is it a free for all?

Free for all, randomly allocated an order, 1st in the first round will be 8th (last) in the 2nd round, it repeats until you’ve a 15 man squad.

CSF

No takers? Its tonight at 10 so still time to prepare plenty.

eh i dunno

I still don't understand it. What's the difference between this and picking my normal team?

Once someone else picks a player, you can’t.

And no budget, and no limit on the number of players from any one team!

And it works on the fpl site too? Do you just pick a team at the start and that's it?

CSF

Yeah, there’s a draft section of the FPL site. You select your team at the start, and then you can make changes each week, from the unowned players. The person in last place gets first pick of the available players and so on.

Rules are below if you wanna have more of a look. It’s in about 3 hours at 10 if you want in

Just had a read through and I'd probably be divorced if I spent any more time on fpl so I'll have to leave it lads.

CSF

No worries. If we don’t get an 8th person then an average team gets entered, which rather than being the average of all teams in fantasy, is instead the average of our 7 scores apparently, which I think is much better for the competitive side of things.

eoghan104

Whoever gets me in week 1 is on the pigs back anyway!

Green&Red

Thought this was on at 10.30

Luckily I had the my watchlist laid out

eoghan104

Jesus you were lucky if you got zero auto-picks, did you have hundreds in watchlist?

Would love to be able to see all the teams.

CSF the man to beat.

Good team.

Had 40 defenders, 40 mids, 24 forwards. Hadn't included Havertz is the only omission

You can see them in draft room. I was delighted to be able to get Trent and Robbo again, Liverpool better not let their defensive glory slide now

If you go into the draft room on the RHS you can switch teams

Dearg81

I decided to not pick any City or Liverpool players to make it a challenge (I didnt really, I just fcuked up my team)

Wouldn't agree with you at all there, I see it
Klopp
Trimms
Dearg (If Laca stays)


Megaphone could be the joker

eoghan104

Cheers lads had a look there, some good teams. Mine is the best though unlucky fellas.

Dearg with a nice team too especially if Lacazette wins his place in the team.

No way.

If you were running a book CSF would have to be favourite and I’d make him clear favourite at this stage.

Obviously things can change but he’s got great weekly potential for the H2H format.

I picked Firmino, when there were better options, because I hated not having a Liverpool player last season. I do like the draft game more than the regular game.

The Megaphone

Yeah I like Dearg’s team as well - plenty of players who could return double digit hauls!

Firmino is a great pick, got 160 last year and massively underperformed his xG

If Torres and Pereira go well I think you've the best team


I'm happy enough with my midfield, Grealish and Foden could go either way

Dearg81

Interesting tactics from CSF, he went all in on defence and got TAA and Robertson. I did the opposite and picked my attack first.

I'll need Chelsea and United to close the gap on the big 2 to have any chance I think.

It’s **** you missed out in the draft. Although it saved you the tension.

Auto pick didn’t work out too badly for you but I’m sure it’s knocked a bit of the shine off for you already.

Pepe probably the glaring pick you wouldn’t have made.
