What system was that? I wasn't around at the time. We've already got four people signed up, but I guess it's not too late to move... There's no reason we couldn't have two parallel leagues if people wanted to do that.

Heck, I'll do this again, but this time actually get my squad together before the season starts!
Take care all.
cba to join. If someone starts a yahoo one again i'll go on that, but if not then sod it
Boy, that took a while. I'm still new to a lot of these players, so my team will probably suffer as a result. It got tough to round out the last few players as funds ran dry.
Team: New York Footballers
Manager: Mark Hughes, Blackburn
Kepper: Jussi Jaaskelainen, Bolton
D: Christian Dailly, West Ham
D: Rio Ferdinand, Man United
D: Rodrigo Defendi, Tottenham (With a name like that, he cried out to be chosen)
D: Chris Riggott, Middlesbrough
MF: Damien Francis, Watford
MF: Steven Gerrard, Liverpool
MF: Leon Osman, Everton
MF: Steven Davis, Aston Villa
S: Jason Roberts, Blackburn
S: Robbie Keane, Tottenham
I honestly only know about 4 of these players, so I have no idea how good or bad this team is. I'll try to research things, but in the end, it's just for fun. Though, if anyone can see any obvious weaknesses, such as a player is already out with injury or has no shot at starting, feel free to point it out.
Take care all.
Wise in choosing Hughesy as manager, the favourite to take over at Manure when Ferguson retires.Originally Posted by The Captain
Though i would say the team is pretty average.
Cristian Dailly, no, you have to get rid! he is crap, he wont play hardly this season.
You really want someone great in each section.
Like Brad Friedel, Petr Cech, Shay Given or Van Der Sar in goals.
Deffinately have John Terry in defence,
Gerrard will be great in midfield.
You really need someone up front who going to bang in the goals frequently like Herny, Shevchenko.
A great player in each section will help you greatly.
Take a look at my team for an example, which is somewhere above.
Thank you kindly! I shall adjust my team based on your thoughts.
Take care all.
I swear i posted my team on here ages ago. Weird...
Made some changes:
Manager: Hughes
K: Shay Given, Newcastle
D: Chris Armstrong, Sheffield
D: Ashley Cole, Arsenal
D: Rio Ferdinand, Man United
D: Ibrahima Sonko, Reading
M: Damien Francis, Watford
M: Steven Gerrard, Liverpool
M: Leon Osman, Everton
M: Steven Davis, Aston Villa
S: Milan Baros, Aston Villa
S: Andy Johnson, Everton
Still needs some tweaking I'd bet, though.
Take care all.
How much they all worth? and how much do you get to spend all together?

I'm in.
FC Cooke
Manager: Sam Allardyce
Goalie: Tim Howard
Defender: John Obi Mikel
Defender: Gabriel Heinze
Defender: Joleon Lescott
Defender: Julio Arca
Midfielder: Steven Gerrard
Midfielder: Giuseppe Rossi
Midfielder: Lassana Diarra
Midfielder: Jan Kromkamp
Striker: Ole Gunnar Solksjaer
Striker: Andreij Schevchenko
I will edit when neccessary
For the price of one star forward, I can get three star defenders. Hence I go for a more star-studded back five, an aggressive mid-field and two proven goalscorers from some of the lesser teams. That way I'll have five players regularly netting me points, and if the strikers score a few, then its a bonus.
If anyone wants to set up an EoFF league on another site (yahoo or similar), then go for it! I have a team on premierleague.com. If you create it, I'll add it to the original post.
**Edit**
See the first post for an alternative league, if you're interested.

Thrown a team together, here's BoB's Bunch...
Manager: Paul Jewell (Wigan)
Keeper: Ben Foster (Man United)
Defenders: Ibrahima Sonko (Reading), Adrian Mariappa (Watford), John Terry (Chelsea), Chris Makin (Reading)
Midfield: Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Giuseppe Rossi (Man United), Cristiano Ronaldo (Man United), Phil Jagielka (Sheffield United)
Strikers: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (Man United), Wayne Rooney (Man United)
Obviously I'm going for the attacking option, because to be honest I've never done this before and I felt like going with the guns. Terry and Foster make a good defence though, even if Foster might not start many games (might even be starting for Watford!).
Yahoo! has started up their fantasy league... anyone interested in that one?
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
For me it's important that all my team are regular starters. A mid-table first-choice keeper will earn more points that Chelsea's second-choice.
os hit BoB's joined? I'm definitely signing up now.
edit: k I joined, my team is called Brian because I couldn't be arsed to think of a better team name. Team:
Manager: Jose Mourinho (Chelsea)
GK: Mark Schwarzer (Middlesborough)
DF: Jihai Sun (Manchester City)
DF: Carlos Bocanegra (Fulham)
DF: John Terry (Chelsea)
MF: Nigel Reo-Coker (West Ham Utd)
MF: Steve Sidwell (Reading)
MF: Giuseppe Rossi (Manchester Utd)
MF: Steven Gerrard (Liverpool)
MF: Papa Bouba Diop (Fulham)
ST: Andy Johnson (Everton)
ST: Georgios Samaras (Manchester City)
