Ok, so the wounds may still be a bit fresh for this, but just a reminder there is a cavie fantasy football league for anyone that would like to join. Just for a bit of fun. Ive renewed last years league so people that were in that should automatically rejoin if they create a team. For anyone else that would like to sign up the link is:

https://fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/auto-join/6w7drw

And I've made a second cup based league, for head to head matches against each other too. Same team can join both leagues. But for the fun of viciously crushing your friends team and then gloating afterwards in the pub, this may be fun too...! tongue.gif

All welcome, be good to see a few more teams join and give Ryan (last years winner) a bit more competition! smile.gif

Cheers,

Sean

So each game week you pick your players for that week. Pick a captain (by clicking on the player icon) who will score double points for the week. Vice captain is just in case captain doesn’t play.

There are 3 buttons under the team selection. Those are each once ever options in the season to boost points further. Only advice I’d give for those is sometimes, usually late in the season, teams get to play twice in the same week. Can be worth saving some of those specials for then.

The interface is fairly user friendly with all the rules and point scoring info readily available. But as you’d expect strikers get points for scoring, defenders for clean sheets, midfielders a bit of both.

The two competitions are a league table based on total points for the season. And a head to head cup style competition where we play against each other’s teams and get 3 pts for a win, 1 for a draw etc each week.

You get one transfer a week. Don’t have to use can save some up. But worth keeping an eye out for red cards and injuries. The team picker highlights all those for you anyway.

Otherwise, am sure you’ll get the hang of it once the season kicks off.

Cheers,

Sean

Probably not worth anyone playing next year because everyone will just take the obvious min/max and select the entire Forest team every week ftw. smile.gif

Thanks, I’d like to thank my mum, Mo Salah and the dismal performance of Harry Kane early in the season!

Can’t wait to get some of those Forest heavy weights next season Matt 😳

Until next year!

I've refreshed this league, so anyone in it previously should auto join when you create a team. Anyone else who'd like an invite, just post here or pm me!

Can anyone stop Ryan winning, he's going for 3rd time in a row I think!!

Sean
