Fantasy Premier League 2011/12

[Anarion]

I don't see anyone having kicked off the Ulthuan fantasy premier league yet. So I took the liberty of starting one.

http://fantasy.premierleague.com

Code to join is: 111903-100937

If there is already a league going, I will delete this one.

[Ghost]

I'm in, Phantom is my team

[Paraicj]

I am all over this like a football-loving rash.

Not going to pick my team yet, but it'll be Team Mediocre again, with some form of mud-brown jersey to reflect their mediocre status.

[Prince_Asuryan]

Already! The football never ends.

At least I know what I'm doing this year, and Team WIN! will be victorious once more.

[Facade19]

Gosh, I wish I could participate this year again and see my team be in the lower and of the echelon.
But since I am starting law school this August, I shall have no time for fun and distracting enterprises.
As a matter of fact, I do not think I will be able to watch the EPL at all this year either.
Man, reflecting on it now, it appears that law school is more like a marriage. Something you do not want to do, but it is good to do it anyway.

[Ghost]

This isn't that time consuming, you pick your team now and just make minor changes throughout the season.

[Shandiar]

Teshub_Rules ...!! Learn the meaning of fear and good call Anarion, you might regret it..haha

[KJSparkz]

I've joined. Best of Luck to everybody. Should be fun.

[Anarion]

Only seven people in so far. But there's still two weeks for others to join us.

[Prince Elileth]

I'll be joining shortly as usual. I must save face after my humiliating defeat at the hands of Paraic last season.

[Paraicj]

There is nothing humiliating about losing to me. Get used to it.

I'll join this week sometime!

[Paraicj]

...and I'm in, with an experimental young side. Well, for the most part. Having three Man City players feels wierd.

Only 9 clubs in the league so far and 2 days to go! Get your asses in gear people.

[geoguswrek]

i've got a team i just haven't gotten around to joining leagues yet.

[Anarion]

Season starts tomorrow. Only 12 people joined yet.

[Prince Elileth]

There is an excellent chance many of my starting 11 won't play this weekend. Damn you City and your ridiculous depth!

[geoguswrek]

part of the reason i'm avoiding city and chelsea players, too redundant.

[Prince_Asuryan]

I'm annoyed they said Drogba was injured... he was on fire. I need Rooney to do something. Also, both my Arsenal big guns are out this week. The bastards.

[Ghost]

Ugh rough start, need Van Der Sar to make a good impression in the next game, so far Drogba and Lampard are holding my team up

[Venkh]

Winner!!

Yes thats me. Winning.

A very even spread of points too, Best player was Rooney on only 10 pts.

[Prince Elileth]

So tell me, how's it feel to be bottom of the table Scanlon?

[Paraicj]

Letting you no-hopers have a bit of a head-start this year. I'm a freakin' saint is what I am.

[geoguswrek]

i think i'lll probably be bottom of the league, seeing as half my team didn't play (damn fabregas getting ill), and the other half didn't play well.

[Paraicj]

From last to first in one week. Will probably stay here all year.

[Prince_Asuryan]

An AMAZINGLY bad week for me. My three expensive players got 6 points between them. Hopefully dropping Frabregas and Rooney for Drogba and Malouda will pull me back - I'm bottom of all the leagues I'm in, effectively a week short now due to the failure of my team...

[NightKnight]

Aaaaaand who's first now?

Yeah, I joined again, just forgot to post it here. Paraic, you're going down this time.

[Ghost]

Lampard is killing me, and most of my defense isn't making too many points.

[Paraicj]

Code: Select all

1 	Petes Running Punts 	peter johnstone	501
2 	Anar's Ions 	Anar Ion	467
3 	Sparkz11 	Kieran Veale 	454
4 	FC Penguins 	Henke Bellander	452
5 	Something FC 	Peter Eichberger 	451
6 	Team Mediocre 	Paraic Scanlon 	451
7 	Teshub_Rules 	Sten Madsen 	441
8 	Phantom 	Mario Z 	435
9 	Team WIN! 	Stuart Blucke 	428
10 	Olympique Mayonnaise 	Sami Mahmoud 	427
11 	Hamsters 	Peter van den Burg 	418
12 	The Losers 	Tyrion Reaper 	393

So, we're 10 games in and things are hotting up. First off, only ~100pts between first and last means it's still all very close. Peter J has a nice lead, but between 2nd and 10th, 1 or 2 good weeks still make all the difference. Interesting stuff, with Lampard, Rooney and Gerrard, usually 3 of the biggest scorers, all failing so far, while Nasri, Chamakh, Malouda, Tevez and Drogba instead being big scorers.

And 10 weeks in, me and Elileth are in a dead heat.

[Venkh]

Frankly I'm shocked to still be top of the table. Drogba and Tevez havent been scoring as well and i had a couple of injuries to deal with.

Nice to be top though...

As I was basking in vainglory I was thinking about the winner being honoured with a prize? A custom profile tag or something how did we get those campaign medals made?

[KJSparkz]

Surprised to see I'm near the top.Injuries really have hampered me the last few weeks.Dont forget though guys that you can make changes to your line ups each week,even transfer players.You will lose a few points doing so but at least you should make them back.

[Anarion]

Just checking in to offer some catcalls from the top of the mountain since I just climbed into first place.
