Title: Fantasy Football - World Cup
Post by: Benny on May 15, 2010, 11:23:10 PM
I'm open to alternatives, but anyone fancy this one?

I've yet to sift through a team, but shall we get the ball rolling. Shall we say....a pint for the winner, from all participating and attending members at the next LAN, or a hearty well done :)

I'm game.

Given my frankly appalling record in fantasy anything, you shouldn't have too many worries :D

Good stuff, thread stuck. As soon as someone has a team (Jim?) let's get a league setup and rolling. Deadmen Fantasising perhaps?

My team, the 'Cambridge Blazers' are ready to go out in a blaze (guffaw) of glory.

I'll do the honours with the Deadmen league if nobody else wants to.

It is done!

I've created a private league, 'Deadmen Fantasising'.

I believe you need a PIN to join, which should be 10574

me knowing nothing at all about football ive just picked players whos names made me chuckkle for some reason and deliberatly avoided any player who i have heard of, so i i come above anyone in the league then you really have to wonder about your choices!

So that they can steal your megahertz.

Everyone should have been accepted into the Deadmen league now. Only a week to go until kick-off, hurry up and sign up if you haven't done so!

So, with a week to go Rio Ferdinand has a knee injury and Didier Drogba looks doubtful due to a suspected fractured elbow...

Who said friendlies were ........ well, friendly?

Oh great! Hasn't started yet but the curse of the duck has already struck.
Booted off 2 of my selections.:sad:
Watched a bit of the Aussies v Yanks this afternoon but went into V Meldrew mode over those bloody trumpets and switched off.:taz:
Hopefully the steam radio guys will be in soundproof booths and I'll listen to 5 live with a muted TV.

I'm not looking forward to the daft horn things either, I watched the Confed cup I think it was a while back & it was just annoying all the way through the games.

It's not a great start for the Puddleduck 11, historically they were slow in the Premier league too.....watch them fly.

Lahm bagged me a tasty 8 points, but apart from that it's miserable failure thus far.

Table's tight though...
