    If you can get someone to run/format them or you're willing to, then yeah why not? Because there'd be a number of entrants that wouldn't be to the power of 2, you'd need qualifiers etc meaning it would need to be done manually rather than via the website itself.

    Yeah id be willing to :)

    I finished up in 12th which I am very happy about. Once this competition was touted it was one of my main aims to make the premier league, I was in the mid championship spots for most of the time but sunk to 46 before my good run started.
    Looking forward to this next year.
    As a note of caution I was involved in one of the Boards H2H leagues which were set up this year and finished in 8th despite being the second highest scorer of real points, I had 61 points and someone with 250 points less is only one point behind me with 60, there can be some strange results obviously.

    It's all about consistency with a bit of luck in there too.

    Jaysis.

    78th.

    On the plus side, the only way is up!

    Goes to show just how good everyone is here.

    I came 2nd in three friends leagues, and won 1.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    finished 14th happy enough considering I was in league one when it started.

    FSA Cup surely? :)

    toying with the idea of sourcing a sponsor for it..... free entry with a few quid prize money for the winner

    Finished 8th in this, not the biggest fan of head to head leagues but this could be good.

    If someone could do this for the Premier League that would be delightful. Make it really something everyone wants to be in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,103 ✭✭✭finnharpsboy


    have an offer of sponsorship of €100 so far
    wouldnt be a bad prize for free entry for us boardsies

    I had suggested this for the Champions Cup last year or even a system whereby entrants put in a fiver a head.

    sounds like a good idea, missed the start of the champions cup and the sign up process so dont know how that worked, but for the fsa cup im thinking if all 80 qualify plus 48 extras to give it a workable figure, free entry and a small prize like that €100, sure ya couldnt go wrong.

    I wouldn't even go with 48 extras personally (I'm not a fan of non-leaguers just like Greg Dykes or whatever his name is). Bottom ranked 32 play out the first round. In the second round you have the 48 top ranked enter to the second round, followed by a 3rd and a 4th round, then a quarter finals and so on.

    yeah sounds good, im just thinking of the few regulars we have that didnt manage to sign up in the original qualifying league.... and ive been on to a few companys to try get your premiership sponsorship :)

    no point waiting around :D at least that way we can rule it out if its not going to happen.... at least the cup will have a minimum €100


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,056 ✭✭✭Sooner or Later


    13th in the end ... not feeling the least bit unlucky :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 627 ✭✭✭Jeju


    Got 20th in the end from 6th when this was first touted, a bit like Newcastle went into free fall since the Christmas and went drinking for two of the last important weekends forgetting to do my transfers.
    All in all happy to be in the to have made top 20 and looking forward to making my mark on the competition next year.
    Having won the FSA Boards 6 Nations, a bit like Clive Woodward a change of codes will not deter my hunger and or ambition.:mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 415 ✭✭TaytoCrisps


    21st :( so close to the top 20, 4 point hit last day cost me 20th spot . techincally i finished top of the championship.... does that mean i'm promoted to the premiership for next season ? :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,679 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    75th - better than 80th:D

    Looks like it is going to be very strong competition next season.


  • Posts: 17,735 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Finished in 18th after a poor finish. Happy to be in the Premier League at least!

    That is amazing. Fair play to finnharpsboy for the Trojan work he has been doing, if anyone has anything that would be amazing.

    It means you're favourite to be ;-)

    I missed putting my name down for this initially, think im third on the reserves list. Out of interest, I finished on 2279 pts, which league would I have started in?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,519 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    Premier League - More that 2362 pts
    Championship - 2321 to 2361
    League 1 - 2267 to 2320
    League 2 - less than 2267

    You'd have been 55/80 to League 1.


  • Posts: 6,045 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Oops, never mind. Just saw Id have made league one.

    Edit : thanks shedite.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 982 ✭✭✭Decoda


    Ended up on a final points tally of 2340, 39,385 overall and 30/80 in this league (22 points off of the bottom of the premier league) Championship football for me next season.....


    Got caught in my pub league on the last week, had been leading since week 9 but a mediocre finish allowed my nearest competitor to close the gap. A disaster of a week for games week 37 allowed him to gain 50 points on me....everything that could go wrong to me that games week went wrong. Finally lost the league by 11 points in games week 38 rueing what could have been if Sturridge, my captain hadn't of hit the bar...and Wenger played Monreal.....and...and...what if...

    Anyways....I had some fun....let's do it all again come the start of the season.....

    Not taking entries from this point onwards. 8 reserves should be more than enough.

    Signups will be available from the day that the site goes online for a period that will be specified in due course. After which any available spaces will become available to reserves or for people to move up a league if the chance arises.

    Any reserves that don't make it into Division 5 (along with anyone else who signs up before the closing of the August transfer window) will go into a Promotion League (classic format not H2H) where the top 3 teams will go into Division 5 (or Division 4 if we don't get 5) to replace the bottom 3 teams who will be relegated out of the league system altogether for being absolutely ****.
