Welcome on board I will send you the code now via Private Message hope it doesn't mess up your cup plans Captain
That's no problem. If one more person joins after Flywhitehigh, we won't even need any byes for the cups! If anyone else is thinking of joining us, act now because I'll be doing the cup draw in the next day or so. And welcome aboard, Flywhitehigh. Best of luck to you (unless you get drawn against me in the cup, of course!).
Yeah, me too, DR. I think the problem is with them rather than with us. Any problems in our teams, however, we can't blame on anyone else...
I am delighted to announce the draw for our inaugural knock-out competition: The Luis Boa Morte Memorial Shield. Round will take place as previously announced (weeks 7, 9, 11 and 13). Assuming that Flywhitehigh has joined the league, there will be 1 bye to the quarter finals, with 14 teams playing in the first round. In the event of another team joining the league before the first round, they will be drawn away against the team with a bye. If more than one team joins, the last one in will have to miss this cup and wait for the next one later in the season (I'm planning on running three tournaments, if that's okay with everyone). In honour of our sponsor, drawn games will be decided by which team loses the most points through red or yellow cards during the gameweek in question. Cards awarded to the whole 15 man squad will be counted, so even your subs bench could still put you through by virtue of indiscipline. If teams are level on cards. Just to clarify, the more points you lose, the better it is for you in a tie-break situation. If teams are still level after cards are taken into account, the winners will be (in order) the team who scored the most goals in the gameweek, the team who scored the most assists, the team who scored the most clean sheets (defenders and goalkeepers only, not midfielders), the team who conceded the fewest goals (defenders and goalkeepers only). If teams are still drawn, then a replay will take place in the week immediately following. And so here's the draw, which was made with the assistance of my eldest son to avoid any fiddling. Not that he could tell you if I had fiddled it, but it was the best I could do. Bye: The Dembele Flops (who will now be ruled out of receiving byes in the other two tournaments) First Round Draw: Flywhitehigh vs West London Whites Fulhamyself vs Europa Dreaming Megson's Barmy Army vs Dempsey's Revenge FulhamDad13 vs McBride's Legion Tootif vs Cravendale FC Marauders vs FFC Madness 12 Danny Cullips vs Riley's Oley Oley's. And, once again in honour of our sponsor, may the cloggiest, most aggressive teams win!
Liking the sponsor, Captain and loving the tie-break cards rule. Very Fulhamish and very well organised.
Thanks Captain - Madness and FulhamDad are already behind having missed out on the first week (Not helped by not realising the point scoring significance of the appointing a Captain - In my rush to sign-up late, I didn't read up enough). Love the tie-breakers - An Unfair Play League.
Lets hope the people running the site (EA Sports ?) can get their act together as it seems to lock you out alot. during the week I heard Rooney had pulled a hamstring so I took the captaincy off him but because there was no confirmation, I went back to changed him back to captain, only to be locked out on Friday and saturday, missing out on an extra 19 points.
Well, I'm loving my choice of Ashley Young as captain this week - the first time so far this season that I've put the armband on the right player, and worth an extra 23 points! Get in.
I was punished this week for putting the armband on Darren Bent - I think I'm better off with Silva or Aguero!
I don't know we pay £10.6m for Ruiz and Fantasy Football League has him down for £7m we've been robbed. Same price as Bobby Zamora was at the start. (now £6.8m after inactivity). Orlando Sa is £5m so we've made on that one Grygera is £5m so we've made on that.
Sorry I haven't been updating this (slacking in the admin department), I will get round to it I promise, my Mrs was in hospital r.e. birth of second child but it was a false alarm. If someone can PM me the updated scores (no access in work) I will sort it
Game week 4 results are in Sorry I missed week 3 http://www.not606.com/showthread.php/73744-Fulham-Fantasy-Football-League
Woy, is it true you're naming your next child Semundseth? As far as keeping the scoreboard up to date, don't worry about it. Baby takes priority.
Haha no mate, it has been Drew since the day we found out. I like to keep the board updated to see how well (or not in some cases-me included) we are doing
On a totally selfish note, don't bother updating the board WWDW - I'm having a right stinker this season!
I thought I'd had a good week until I saw everyone else's scores. I'm top in my other league and bottom half in this one; I guess that says something about the footballing knowledge of Fulham fans. No sign of FlyWhiteHigh joining up yet. If he hasn't taken his place in the league by the time the cup games role around, WestLondonWhites will be deemed to receive a bye (and will be unable to get a bye in any subsequent cup competitions). Remember, week 7 is when it all kicks off.
