Title: Fantasy Football - Private League
Post by: Banners on 05 August, 2009, 03:24:30 PM
With the football season nearly upon us, would there be any interest in me setting up a private league for us boarders at the official Fantasy Premier Leaguer site (http://fantasy.premierleague.com/)?

Cool - two of us, that'll do. I just need a vaguely witty 2000 AD related name for the league now. Hmmm....

I've run a FF league based on the Yahoo rules every year for the past 10 (?) years now.

This is the first year that I've contemplated NOT running one, as real life is taking over- however if someone else starts a Yahoo one up, I'll be in.

I've joined. The team is Sleeping Dogs. I trust that you can make as many changes as you like before kick off, as I just threw together an on-budget motley crew.

The season hasn't even started and I've lost a midfielder to injury... This bodes well!

Thanks. I was looking for a new league. I'll sort a team over the weekend. For some reason I always end up in 7th place so hopefully there's at least eight people involved.

Having two Everton players in my starting eleven appears to be mine.

Bah! That was pretty close at the end. Pesky Fulham rotating their squad cost me the title in this and another league(!) No prize - just hearty congrats.

See you next season!

Fulham near done me in too.

Had a few Fulham players on the game week that they played twice, except they fielded a weaker team savin the best for this euro cup thing!

How about a world cup Fantasy League?

I think the same people run one, if not there are plenty of others to choose from.
