Fantasy Premier LeagueAnyone wanting to make a fantasy team for the new season? You can even make leagues so it could be fun if there was enough people interested for us to make one. I often invite friends to do this as well.
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/
Its free and simple to get to grips with. All you do is register and then you'll be able to create your own team of 11 players plus four subs from 100m. The subs are there in case the players from the main 11 are unable to play in that week, you can change the subs after you create the squad.
You also get to have a name and a football strip for the team. And you get to pick a captain who's the most important player because that player will get double the points he recieves in a game.
Once you start off your allowed to make as many transfer exchanges you want until the season kicks off. After that your limited to one transfer a week, anymore will mean a -4 point deduction for your team for every other exchange that week.
Its easy to use and is very fun, especially when your in a league and I'm planning on making one.
Please join in, its great!

Oh yeah, cool! I'm definitely up for this, I don't have a lot of time now but I'll do a team this evening!
|
Xarcabard
|
Cool! I'll see if I can get as many people as possible to join to make a league for.

Excellent! I'll try to get hubby into it as well, he did one with his work crowd last year, so he might be up for it! I think jenny* must be on holidays as she hasn't been here in over a week but she'd probably be up for it as well.

Thats good!
I done one of these with my class mates a few years ago when I was still at school. We took up most of the lesson just talking about it
There was 22 of us and I finished 2nd in the table, would have finished 1st if damn Kevin Davies wasn't in top form that season.

Here's my team then....took me ages!
|
Xarcabard
|
Cool nice team!
|
April_Rose
|
Thank you! I see we've a few the same in there, you just have to go for the best players though! let me know when you get the league set up! By the way I should warn you I'm a bad loser and a smug winner!
|
Xarcabard
|
I'm exactly the same
From that I mean a smug winner coz I never lose
|
April_Rose
|
Oh yeah? Well get ready to start in that case!
|
April_Rose
|
Did you get a league set up yet Xarca? My competitive streak is starting to surface!
|
Xarcabard
|
Not yet but I'll do it over the weekend hopefully
|
April_Rose
|
Coolio!
|
Xarcabard
|
Right I think I've emailed you but if not just tell me and I'll give you the code
|
April_Rose
|
Yup, got the email, joined the league!
|
Xarcabard
|
Cool, it'll be good when the season kicks off
I'll be on the search for more members.
|
April_Rose
|
I can get hubby to join up, he's got a team already and he's in a league with his work crowd but I'm sure he'd be up for a bit of competition between us
|
Xarcabard
|
Sure no problem, more the merrier.
Only created it yesterday so I'm expecting to get more and more as it goes on.
|
April_Rose
|
Yeah sounds good. I must take a look at my team again actually now there's been some transfers since I made it, see if I can improve it at all.
|
April_Rose
|
How about you Jen, are you interested?
|
April_Rose
|
Just checked my team, 40 points and I'm top (probably for the only time in the season but still, it's nice!)
|
Xarcabard
|
I'm not too disapointed to be only a few points off considering Tevez didn't play today and mccathey got himself injured
|
April_Rose
|
Yeah, good that McCarthy is allright, that looked nasty!
Still a long way to go....I can see this being fun as the season goes on!
|
Xarcabard
|
Yeah its really tight in the league and probably will for a while. . .until I storm away with the title that is
|
April_Rose
|
uh huh, you keep telling yourself that! Shame there's no money on it or it'd be really interesting....
|
Xarcabard
|
Alternatively you could just pay me now to save some time.
|
April_Rose
|
Uh huh? I'm looking disdainful and unimpressed right now!
|
Xarcabard
|
Yeah Right!
Don't know how long Mccarthey is out so I transferred him out for robbie keane
|
April_Rose
|
I need to look at mine again actually, look at the fixtures and stuff to see if I need to make any changes. Make sure I've got people who are likely to score.
|
Xarcabard
|
Essien injured too, damn! Any more transfers this week and I'd be deducted points
|
April_Rose
|
I think I'll transfer Doyle out, as I don't want him to score against Chelsea! How many points do you lose for extra transfers?
|
Xarcabard
|
4 each I think unless you play a wildcard (you get 1 whole season) where all transfers for that week are free.
|
April_Rose
|
Hmm, going to have to find someone to swap Doyle for then. No way I'm, sacrificing 4 points!

I'm trying to log on to have a look at my team...can't remember my username and password though, I usually just tell the computer to remember it *sigh*
