Fantasy Football anyone?
Fantasy Football anyone?
Hello everyone,
As a lot of us on this forum are football fans, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in creating a league in the online Premier League Fantasy Football.
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/
Many of you may already be playing it this season. But for those who aren't it's free to enter, there are no cash prizes and I believe you can win some match tickets from time to time. It's purely for fun, and a good chance to see which of us really do know about football.
As a Leeds United fan, I'm just one year away from being able to select players from my real-life team for my Fantasy team.
I can't seem to find an online Scottish version of Fantasy football, but if you know of one, maybe we can get two of them up and running.
If you are interested, you will need to pick your teams before the opening match of the season (14th August). We will also need a name to call our league. It could be comic-related or something completely random.
I've already got my team, Melchester Rovers, and I hope to break into the top 500,000 this season
Let me know ASAP
Cheers,
Al

Re: Fantasy Football anyone?
Named your team after Roy of the Rovers I see.
There doesn't seem to be any Scottish fantasy football leagues. Searching for fantasy football scotland, the top link in Google is for one from 2004.

Re: Fantasy Football anyone?
So are we going to have Glasgow Royals and Princes Park then? Not to mention We Are United! I am sure that a host of other comic football teams will come out of the woodwork for this league. I think I may put in my favourite comic team, Forfar Athletic!
I started to say something sensible but my parents took over my brain!
Re: Fantasy Football anyone?
I have created a new league for us. It has been creativly named Comics UK League.
To join, you will need to use this code number 278992-129269.
So once you have registered your team, click on the League hyperlink and enter the above code.
Apologies for not supplying more details, but I'm writing this via my phone and I am unable to toggle between screens.
Hope to see some of you on there.

Re: Fantasy Football anyone?
Nope. It's more like the competitions run by newspapers, such as The Sun's Dream Team - except this one is officially endorsed by the League itself. Online Soccer Manager has more in common with computer games such as Championship Manager.
Re: Fantasy Football anyone?
I'm also on board, with my now-traditional team name (albeit not UK Comics related). As it stands I hope to break in to the Big 4 this season...
Re: Fantasy Football anyone?
Only 3 of of us so far "come on Digi join up bet I beat you"
Re: Fantasy Football anyone?

Re: Fantasy Football anyone?
Princes Park has now joined as well, so that gets us up to six. Another few to get us to the same size as the SPL!

Re: Fantasy Football anyone?
Unfortunately I'm going to have to disappoint you, steelclaw. I simply don't have the time. Once I've posted my reply to Raven about schoolboy detectives, I'm basically out of here until I've finished my book and got it published, which probably means early 2011.steelclaw wrote:Just waiting for Phoenix to join to show us all how to pick a winning team But if it's anything like the team he supports...
