    In Response to Re: Sky Poker Fantasy football! : 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.

                       The Bad News Is

            I have had to put the Blue Shed Allsorts into Administration

           mainly due to Cappello saying " i am the only one who can have an all-English Team "  


            The Good News Is

            I Have a Brand New Team         With a new Team Name

                               Can't Wait For it all 2 Start 


           Good Luck To All

    Sounds great! Would create quite a stir if it was possible... Still, I believe my team, Smillie FC will prevail!


    I wish.....

    P.S. Great to see so much interest in this.

    Sigh.

    Late & disorganized as ever, I tried to Register my Team this morning, but the Sky Sports Website comes up with an error message when I press "SUBMIT DETAILS".

    It says....

      Server Error in '/' Application. Runtime Error Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

    Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located
    in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".


    That's then followed by acres of incomprehensible gobbledegook.

    Have I broken it?

    Can I register my Team at a later date?
  • edited August 2009
    That happ 2 me tk, just go to the home page again and i was registered somehow, Dont ask me how this works but it did somehow. Ozzie

    I was then able 2 pick my team after going back to the home page hope this helps m8
  • edited August 2009
    Hey tikay,


    hmmmm, i'm not too sure about that - i don't think you have broken it but more likely the site is having problems (probably due to a high traffic volume today - 1st day of the premiership)

    i'm sure you can register next week - just follow the same process but on monday/ tuesday etc when it's quieter.

    thanks again for taking part tikay i'm sure everyone will love it that you have.

    all the best,

    Rich

    Thanks Ozzie. You were half right, but that Website is a NIGHTMARE.

    As you suggested, when I tried again, it said "Password & E-Addy already taken". (That'd be me, then....).

    So I entered my Team Name, selected my Team, pressed "ENTER" & it kept saying "YOU MUST ENTER YOUR TEAM NAME". Which I already had.

    Then, unbelievably, it crashed my entire computer, & it closed all my tabs down. Marvellous!

    Sigh, that's 2 hours, & counting.

    I'll have one more try......
  • edited August 2009

    YES!

    Team sorted.

    Game on.

    I don't mind if I finish second-last. As long as Orford's Team finishes behind me.
