Glenryck Pilchards Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 For a couple of years at my local pub I have ran a successful Fantasy Football League Predictor game and I thought why not introduce it to the lovely people of the UKFF. The game itself is simple. You need to pick three teams from each of the five divisions (Premier League, Championship, League 1, League 2 and SPL) who you think will finish highest in that league. Wherever your team finishes, that position will be added to your total. The winner is the person who gains the least number of points. For example if you picked these teams last year you would have amassed these points: EPL: Manchester United (1) Arsenal (4) Liverpool (6) total = 11 Ch: Norwich (2) Leeds (7) Middlesbrough (12) total = 21 L1: MK Dons (5) Southampton (2) Charlton (13) total = 20 L2: Chesterfield (1) Stevenage Borough (6) Barnet (22) total = 29 SPL: Celtic (2) Rangers (1) Hibernian (10) total = 13 Grand total = 94 If you picked that lot you would have finished in the bottom half of my pub league. It does not matter in which order you choose your teams. Whichever teams you pick then they are your picks for the rest of the season, apart from a 4 week window in December where you are allowed to change one team. In order to enter please send me your 15 teams by PM or e-mailing me at rtcwillwalkthis@hotmail.co.uk in order to have a bit of secrecy for the start of the season. By all means discuss who you are considering in this thread. Please get your entries to me by the English transfer deadline which is 11pm on Wednesday 31st August. If you post your teams on this thread you will be placed into mental administration and you will have 10 points added to your total. There is a possibility of prizes but I need to get the OK from the mods first. I will update the standings on the 1st of every month. Are there any questions?

Dil|kid Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Great idea, will pm my picks BUT is there any point in doing the SPL as everyone will have the top two right, how about selecting three SPL sides that are not Rangers and Celtic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dork Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Good game, I like it, will have a go. However, I doubt you'll get much response until the eve of the season? Will be worth a bump then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be worth a bump then. I thought I would advertise it now just to get everyone's thinking caps on and they can scout the ins and outs of each club. Regarding the SPL of course everyone expects the Old Firm to finish in the top two but one of them could be struck down by bird flu or some other bizarre shenanigans could go on.

Paid Members PunkStep Posted July 1, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted July 1, 2011 Good game, only problem is that there could still be plenty of transfer activity until the end of Aug that could make a huge difference. Last day signing craziness again and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEWM Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I'll be well up for this, but would also appreciate a bump as a reminder just before the season starts please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenryck Pilchards Posted July 27, 2011 Author Share Posted July 27, 2011 Just thought to bump this for everyones attention. I have decided to extend the deadline to the transfer deadline day on 31/8/11. This will give you enough time to study each team and gamble on the teams with early season form. But remember for every QPR, there is a Derby County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
