Might take part in this,never did a ff before so ill have to read up about it tomorrow

3. Use your free transfer next Gameweek
Don't need to make a free transfer or forget one week? If you don't use your free transfer in a Gameweek then it will carry over to the next Gameweek.

I assume it only carries over once? As in, you can't build up a load of free transfers by not using them?

Guarenteed to play but never a goal and rarely an assist.

I always felt that defensive midfielders should get points for tackles, passes intercepted etc. It's a pity they're not really appreciated by FF calculations.

Wohoo - the countdown begins:

Given

Ferdinand

Have a look at the FF over on the Guardian website. All sorts of stats get scores on that one - clearances, tackles, interceptions, crosses. It's fairly kick ass.

Yeh Lads Someone Set Up A League Where We Can't Pick From The Top 4.
Makes Things More Intresting.

Warper · 08-07-2009 03:58PM

If Zhirkov is a certain starter @ 7.5m and classed as a defender, he must be the buy of the season. He will play as a left-sided winger and should amass bucket-loads of points due to clean sheets, assists and goals. The only danger is squad rotation with Malouda - nothing more head-wrecking in the game than that eg Van Persie, Skertal, Agger.

Eire-Dearg · 08-07-2009 07:28PM

A Boards H2H League has yet to be made, or else a code would've been posted in here which there hasn't.

Necronomicon · 08-07-2009 08:25PM

There was an entrance fee of €20 for 'No Top 4' league, €10 which went to the Santa Strike Force and €10 of which got pooled for the winner. I'd be happy to do that again.

eirebhoy · 08-07-2009 08:27PM

I'm sure the h2h leagues are limited to 38 teams/

+ 1

I'm happy to set the league up if everybody is OK with that say maybe 2-3 weeks out from the first gameweek we can organise the entry fee to be paid, same as last year €20 with half to the SSF (though i have to find out who to give this to)

Let me know what ye think

OPENROAD · 08-07-2009 09:08PM

Can we set up more than one head to head league does anyone know?

I'd be interested in setting up a non-payment one for regular board users and a Arsenal one for Gonners on the board.

Eire-Dearg · 08-07-2009 09:28PM

20.

eirebhoy · 08-07-2009 09:37PM

Doesn't seem to be a limit actually but it wouldn't be great having loads of teams.

#

Limit the number of players if you want to create a league where each player plays each other the same number of times. With 38 rounds remaining a league limited to 38 players and 1 knock-out round(s) would result in one match between each player.

If your league has an odd number of teams then an average player will be added to ensure everyone has a match each gameweek. The average player will score the average points each gameweek.

Kinda32 · 08-07-2009 10:48PM

Guys, I suggest if you do go ahead with this that you start a separate thread so that it doesn't get lost in among the general league chatter.

I'll respond to your PM very shortly Jugs.

jamesozzie · 09-07-2009 12:07AM

I'd be up for joining any other Boards head to head league also or a league without the top 4 that we pay to enter!! count me in if anybody is doing it!

Fenix · 10-07-2009 04:10PM
