Blimey,

You lot are more eager than me!

The league is up and running.

All youse who were in it last year, if you used the same details your team should auto register into the league. 21 of us in already!

If not, the code to use is 78441-62736, and the site is http://fantasy.premierleague.com/

As Delia might drunkenly say: "Come on!! Where are you!!!"

 

[chieftain]

Hackney Angels are back - can't see that cup competition yet - am I missing something? I didn't join it early enough last season.

Created this new thread by splitting from the 2010-2011 thread, which is here if you want to see it - http://www.urban75.net/vbulletin/threads/329206-Fantasy-Footy-League-2010-2011

Cheers LL.

Marty, if you have your team in, it will enter the cup automatically.
Cant remember when they start this, but you should see it on your team page in the week they start it.

there's two different cups isn't there - one random, and one within the urban75 league?

If you mean the head to head league Marty, the code's in the first post - head to head leagues don't automatically carry over apparently.

We can't merge leagues so maybe best if I delete the 'normal' league I set up now that wavey davey's reappeared? Tho I can't edit first post any more so can't change the reference to the league.

 

[big eejit]

Actually it's not in the header any more is it!

The code for the head to head is 14478-55138

cheers, I'm in that too.

 

[Me76]

I'm in. Team is way from finalised though. Will work on it over the next couple of weeks.

 

[purves grundy]

I presume you can still make unlimited transfers until the start of the season?

 

[starfish]

Ah, have just realised im in both Leagues.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Looking at the percentages of teams picking a certain player, there are some interesting things thrown up already...

Suarez is the most picked forward, more people have picked Torres than Drogba. More people have picked Hernandez than Rooney. Berbatov is the 26th most selected forward and Tevez is 30th.

N'Zogbia is the most picked midfielder, Wilshere is the second most picked.Adam is the sixth most picked midfielder. Nani is the 12th most picked and is the highest placed midfielder from Man U or Chelsea.

Kompany the most picked defender. Only two Chelsea players (Luiz and Cole) and two Man Utd defenders (Rafael and Vidic) are in the top 20 most picked defenders.

Oh God, I'm so average

Really annoyed as last season Hernandez was my little gem, now every fucker wants him (Although, I think Rooney's picked more than him now) Pissed off Dempsey is so expensive this season too, he was one of my bargains.

 

[AverageJoe]

So anyone got any tips as to who will be this seasons Charlie Adam, Clint Dempsey or um....Robert Huth?

Sinclair at Swansea? Lots of people going for N'Zogbia as he heads for the dizzy heights of Villa Park.

 

[Lord Camomile]

If (big '"if") Sneijder goes to Man Utd, I'll shift my whole team around to get the funds to buy him. He was one of the stars of my World Cup FF team, and I think he'd be pretty hand for Utd too.

I'm trying to decide whether Modric is worth it, both if or if not he goes to Chelsea. I'm not sure he will be, as lots of others are going to have him too, and I'm not sure he's actually one of those players who will get you lots of points in FF.

 

[Will2403]

He'd be 12m - and he might be worth it too.

Not worth having man city strikers as they dont score enough and there are too many of them. Expecting them to win 8-0 against Swansea though, so might pick one to get my season off to a flyer.

 

[big eejit]

20 teams in the head to head so far. Room for another 18.

Code to join is 14478-55138

 

[AverageJoe]

Moar stats.

There are only 2 Man Utd players (Nani, Young) and 1 Chelsea player (Malouda) in the top 30 most selected midfielders. Suprisingly Liverpool have 6 (Adam, Downing, Henderson,Mereiles, Kuyt, Maxi Rodriguez)

There are no Arsenal players selected in the top 25 most selected defenders.

There are no Chelsea players in the top 10 most selected forwards. More people have picked Torres (16th) than Berbatov (22nd) or Tevez (26th)

1109 people have picked Jovanovic who has moved from Liverpool to Anderlecht. 1902 people have picked Zhirkov, who has moved from Chelsea to Anzhi Makhachkala in Russia.


More people have picked Suarez (Liverpool) who is the most selected forward, than Rooney and Hernandez (both Man Utd) combined who are third and fourth most selected.

Vidic (Man Utd) is the only defender in the top 10 most selected with a value of more than 6.0million

Wigan and Swansea has the smallest FFL squads (19 players); Liverpool and Man Utd have the largest (28 players)

Im in this for the first time - team is called Upsetters - see you on the pitch

There's a FAQ with all the scoring info.

Midfielders will generate most of your points in general (they score more point for goals and also for clean sheets)..

Altho a good defence is also really handy. Everyone's got their own style tho!

As it happens i spent most of my cash there - Lennon, Bale (COYS!) and Nani + someone else - thanks, I'll read up on it. This is just a warm up season for me (making my excuses now!)
