    It says transfers = unlimited, but it doesnt allow you to do them, awfully strange.

    Good point! make sure everyone posts their team names on this thread so we can all keep track
  • edited August 2009

    I registered sometime last week but couldn't set up a team as I ran out of time before having to leave the office (I skive farrrrrrrrrrrr too much :D), and I have since been unable to log in. I've sent an e-mail to support so hopefully I can get a team set-up by the end of the day. Norfolk 'N' Chance will be the team name (not make sense? Say it to yourself quickly and you should get it :P)

    EDIT:- Username problems resolved, team is set-up and awaiting approval.

    transfers now up and running
  • edited August 2009
    Steve Sureshots are currently pending approval.  Good luck all.

    i hope you guys have seen the 'goodies' thread that i started in the shed. we will be giving some of these prizes out to every manager of the month for this fantasy football league.



    p.s. after all the Phil Neville abuse i received i have had to show him the exit and bring in a 'hot' replacement - can't wait till the start of the season! wooooooo
  • edited August 2009
    I did think about Phil Neville. The thing with him is he can probably get you a lot of Appearance points but not a whole lot else.
  • edited August 2009
    he got loads of points last year! he gets a few assists and quite a few bonus points i think
  • edited August 2009
    Hi rich,  Ive just had to put neville in my team. I wanted a Man U. defender for the clean sheets they will get.+ I had to stay under 55m. But as soon as I have to make a transfer I will make sure I can swop him for Evra.
  • edited August 2009
    ha great work! yeah i have evra in mine - he is always a good bet for lots of points!
  • edited August 2009
    Beware - Solack's Goon Squad are registered
  • edited August 2009
    maybe i'm going over the top here but i'm so excited about this! i really hope you all are too!

    especially looking forward to the first manager of the month award (and seeing the mighty 'chicken kiev' above sky_stevem's hopeless excuse for a team) :)

    I have set up my team but when i go to join our league i get an application error. Sigh. will try again later. By the way my team "Greghogg's superyids" rocks! so watch out one and all when i finally register!

    Darren Bent is the cornerstone of my team. Bargain at only 6.4mil bound to score at least 20 goals for the mackems.

    My Team.

    I think Dimi Berbatov will have a good year at Utd, he is due one. Gerrard is a must as my captain and vidic and terry give me a solid defence. Modric and O hara will be great for Spurs this year.. and Darren Bent he is a bargain, just you watch! Not a gooner in sight...

  • edited August 2009
    There are a few errors with the site at the moment but don't worry guys all will be fine and you will be able to register/ tweak your teams before kick off this weekend.

    DTWbandit - yes you should be able to sign new transferred players in your teams.

         Great idea m8  the chat would be good with Tikay taking the odd trip down memory lane & Rich bringing him back to the present day would be like bringing the T.V. Duo to the Shed guarenteed good entertainment i hope you pull it off m8

         good luck

    Hi Sky Rich,
    Have Trevor+Compo got their teams in yet, They both know their sport,+could have a good battle against each other.
    Also has anyone asked Helen (ms Torquay) to get her poker fantasy team in.These 3 + Tikay+RichO will definately add interest to the league, Im sure you can get them all in, Thanks.

    You got me - I'm just trying to Register & Enter now. Complicated, 'innit?

    My ideal Team would be.....
     
    Goalie. Shilton.

    Left Back - Stuart Pearce

    Right Back - George Cohen

    Left-Half - Jackie Charlton

    Centre-half - Bobby Moore

    Right Half - Alan Ball

    Outside Left - George Best

    Inside Left - Denis Law

    Centre Forward - Jimmy Greaves

    Inside Right - Bobby Charlton

    Outside Right - Stanley Matthews

    But I supposd I can't have them - so I'll have to go & select some of the modern airy-fairy footballers. Give me time, between you & me, I'm not 100% up to date on Football.

    I hope the "Squad" contains a good sprinkling of Brentford players.

    We will be tikay's Brentford Boot-Boys.
