Due to popular demand I am going to try and get another 20 names to form a 2nd Watford Fun League For a bit of fun, over the course of the next season, I want to run a league along side the real football leagues but with a slight twist. How it works. 1. Each person chooses 1 team (any team) from any of the top 4 leagues in England. 2. Each team can only be nominated once on a first come, first served basis 3. You can not change your team until the end of the season, ready for the next season (if it proves sucessful and/or worthwhile) 4. There are no prizes - it's for fun. 5. Only open to Watford fans Only league games scores are counted, not cup games. Points system. As with the current leagues in England it's 3 points for a win 0 points for a defeat 1 point for a draw As their are only 20 teams in the Premier League, for this to work the fun league needs to be restricted to 20 teams and team will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. Based on the chosen teams, a fixture list will be created where each team will play each other twice Each time a team plays, their score will be allocated to the team in this fun league (League games only). For example Wigan Ath v Norwich on the first day of the season. Real scoreline on the day is 2-2. Wigan would be credited with 2 goals as would Norwich However, in the fun league Wigan might be playing Wycombe! (if anyone chooses them) And Wycombe (if anyone chooses them) score 3 goals in their first game. The fun league result would then be Wycombe 3-2 Wigan Ath and Wycombe would get the 3 points - Follow? It might get a bit messy around January when the FA Cup overlaps league games but it should not be too much of an issue. If a real game is postponed, those teams next league games will count in the fun league - still follow? I will post fixtures on each Friday on this forum. Updated results, and the league table will be posted the following Monday Hope you will have a go and support this effort. If interested please enter your chosen name by replying to this thread Leonardo, if the league takes off, could it be made a 'sticky' post? Any questions or suggestions to improve it are welcome So far the following teams have been chosen Division 1 AFC Wimbledon - BucksHornet Watford - Hornette_TID Crawley Town - Hornetal Portsmouth - Leonardo Exeter City - Goldenboy1993 Swansea City - Aberdeenhornet Burton Albion - Max WFC Man Utd - Geitungur Akureyrar Huddersfield Town - NZHorn Crewe Alex - North North Watford Southampton - Archaeologisthornet Liverpool - Yorkshirehornet Derby County - Norwayhornet Leicester City - SalisburyKev Sheffield Utd - Hornetalex Swindon Town - Horny Thai Nottm Forest - BobbyDove West Ham Utd - Hornethologist a.k.a.

With no particulair allegiance to any other league team I would like to go along with my local side.So its Oxford for me please Thai.
I can't believe I'm saying this.............. Leeds United please! If it's just the 2 of us - will it be like the SPL?
Thai - you had better reserve BHD a place for league 2 or he will be upset and start modding us all with his new super-power
You know me too well Norway, i would have been in sooner but things conspired against me to dely me. Could you sign me up for Blackpool, I have no loyalties there but i did not want one of the big 4 or a team with a huge amount of money and i like the way they are realistic and i love Holloway's interviews. He is funny!!!
