This is an archived legacy thread. Replies are closed, but the discussion is preserved.
Judging by the number of replies, I'm guessing that the interest in fantasy football is huge this season. 
Anyway, I have set up a private league that you can join using the code 
.
I reckon I'll join up again...and try to not forget about the league the second half of the season...
I'm in. Here's one that won't be in my my team...
Liverpool have announced that winger Harry Kewell will undergo a hernia operation that will rule him out of the start of the Premiership season.
... bet he's relieved about that.

you just know that Kewell is going to end up at bolton where Sam Allardyce will kick fuck out of him and he'll be good again.

..and your studies reveal?
BTW you have been noticeably quiet on the weekends result is it due the Hoops being out-sung or outplayed?
BBC report: The Parkhead crowd was bolstered by a noisy Leeds contingent who sang loudly in appreciation of Strachan - still a hero at Elland Road for his part in winning the League title in 1992.
Sticky thread until the season starts methinks.

Oh, yeah. Duh!
I assume our New Order division is called 'Player In The League'.
Either that, or I've scored an own goal. Sorry.

Yep, that's our league, named after a New Order song.

what are you? a spurs supporter? or even worse in my book: chelsea.
Scores, positions after week one. Agent Wood in danger of running away with it. Uncle John flying the flag for the Sluddens in a respectable 7th place, with Shug languishing in 24th and Stubbsy a miserable 26th. I'm happy with my 44 points. Will improve once Bellamy starts banging them in.

You mean to say he doesn't........

Start as we mean to go on......unable to field 11 players for first weekend because of injuries......where will it end? I am jinxed on Fantasy Football!

Not so fast, Christy, cos my mate Mart (you met in Noo Yoik) has seemingly juat gone ahead of you in the past 24hrs without a ball being kicked by anyone!!
WTF is going on with that league, eh?!

The bonus points are count on Tuesdays, so we had some changes in the table today. I went from 8th to 10th. :(
Wow! I proud to be midfield... Did some changes recently... I hope it works a bit better next week... :D
Finally submitted my team 1LoveMUFC. Joint 2nd as of today. I expect this to be the high point of my FF season.
Hat well and truly thrown in the ring. 4 weeks back - will take the Rams unbeaten instead..
Gladiatori di Derby
Oops... 14 more points? I didn't realize that they played yesterday 
. I gave a lot of points away when I reordered my team. Now I just play for the matchday victory. And for experience for the next season...
I unwittingly had trouble logging into my account in the first two weeks. That's my excuse for tanking in the relegation zones of both the New Order and Depeche Mode leagues.
But as you'll have noticed, I'm moving through the chasing pack faster than Cole Trickle.
Here is the table after gameweek 4. The league now has 43 squads and I'm struggling to keep myself in the top 10.

nice to be under you, timbo.
Always a pleasure to have you under me!
Are people randomly joining our Fantasy League? Who the hell is Stu Dawg, just popped up in top spot?!
Al Jarvis wrote: Are people randomly joining our Fantasy League? Who the hell is Stu Dawg, just popped up in top spot?!
I don't know either. As the creator of the league, I can ban him.
This thread is sticky at the top of the forum, with the code visible to anyone. It can even be found doing a search in Google! I think for next season we should keep it more private, e-mailing the code to people we actually know.
Al Jarvis wrote: Are people randomly joining our Fantasy League? Who the hell is Stu Dawg, just popped up in top spot?!
Deputy?
We're being hijacked!
Should we start a new league and only circulate the code to those we know?
Forget the old 350125 gubbins, this is a better sequence of numbers for Vikings young and old!

We don't need to start another league, I can simply kick the intruders out. The first one is going to be Stu Dawg. He's spoiling my chances of being top of the league.
Shug wrote: There's a few names I don't recognise in the league this year.
Not like you to not know names!
I know who most people are, after me mate Scotty forwarded round an email I sent to him to other mates of ours.
Only ones I have problems with is people who join v.late, and then basically go straight in near the top. Stu Dawg has just appeared in top spot - does anyone know him? Perhaps someone here does, I dunno? Trevor Knott is 2nd and did something similar, but at least had the decency to post in the forum.
I've just banned someone from our UEFA league who's come in straight at no.1 though no-one knows him.

Good stuff. Don't kick out the bottom 5 though!

The champ will be back
Have had horrendous luck with injuries - must've made 10 substitutions already. My form's a bit better in the UEFA Fantasy League though 
I think I'll try next year.
After all, if Shug can trail me by half a point in a hockey fantasy league (!!), I can maybe do it :p

Two more to go?
<< JANGSTERS >> and saad's XI?!
Just joined our league this week. Fcuk knows who they are. Even if they did post here, they shouldn't be just joining now in week 20 or whatever we're on.

I have booted them out of the league. I also edited the code in the first post to avoid more people joining in.
Our league became too popular this time, with 50+ teams. It's three times bigger than the one we had last season. I guess that's the price we pay for having a sticky thread here, which can also be found using search engines. Next time, I suggest to keep the code "secret", e-mailing it to people we actually know.

Does this mean i cant join the NOOL league? my team has only got 898pts so i am not going to be a major threat.

I've sent you the code, Colin. Check your e-mail. No problems with familiar people joining in, we're just trying to avoid complete strangers in the league.
By the way, the league has a new leader.

The Premiership is going to finish soon. Unstick this thread if you want, no problems with that.
