TGGC Championship Fantasy Football League!

(Article submitted by Stani!)

Hi guys,

I promised last season to set up a fantasy football game but we have since found ourselves relegated due to HF's favourite manager, and the worst in our clubs history, Mr Avram Grant. But, I've managed to find a Championship fantasy game, which thankfully for some of us, is much simpler to understand and play (I don't mean you Fred, honest…ahem).

I will create a team and mini-league and encourage all of the regulars on here to swallow their pride and join, so that we can put HF in his place. He will also make a team because he hates to be a spoilsport and has long wanted to rid himself of the technophobic tag and show that he's up with the times (read: He wants to beat us and show us that he knows more and is better than us...no change there then)

Main site:

http://fantasy.football-league.co.uk/Index.aspx

The points system and rules (very simple):

Here is last season's Championship table to give you some idea of which teams to select players from. You can also use this soccerbase site to check on the past form of any of your potential recruits when selecting a team as the Championship’s players are new to us all.

To join The Game's Gone Crazy league, click on 'Private Leagues' on the right hand side menu (once you've registered and selected your team) and enter this PIN: 6298 where it says 'Joining an existing league' down the page.

So come join my fantasy...

...league.

P.S

When registering, do not use your real name if you want to remain anonymous. It's better to use the name you use on this blog anyhow. You CAN edit all this information, including email address, after registration though. All supporters of any club are welcome. Any questions, don’t hesitate.

I will sign up. My father in law died on Tuesday morning so things are a bit frantic at the moment but I will sort out my team asap!

Stani said...

Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Ilaihi Rajioon (Verily we belong to God, and to God we return). Sorry to hear that HF.

Take your time, you have 9 days. My team is not finalised anyway. I quickly assembled one in order to be able to set up our league.

General point; if you guys feel you need to wait last minute to make up a team due to ongoing transfers, there's no need to wait as game transfers are unlimited until start of season.

glad you rememebred me stani :) i will join asap does this mean your coming back to tggc

Hammersfan said...

To be honest mate, I'm not sure God would take him back!

Dave said...

Sorry to hear that Hf. My condolences to you and your family

fred149 said...

made my team and my team name represents what i know about the championship and there players which isnt alot so dont laugh at my team lol

Stani said...

Na, you're confusing him with yourself HF! ;)

Stop it Fred, I'm beginning to think you actually like me. And how could I forget you?!

'Fred's Randoms'...they sound like sweets! But I know what you mean, I haven't got a clue about who's who either. Serves us right for switching off after Match of the Day before the Football League Show. My team's not finalised though...I mean, it's got Ben Haim and Noble in it for God's sake! That was just me making fun of HF though.

Wow, we have 6 teams joined already. That's really good guys. Will be interesting. Just don't give up mid-way through the season!

Hammersfan said...

I'm in and so is Headmaster.

the headmaster said...

Nice one Stani - good ta see ya back! Was just about to post that O'd done one but HF got in there first. Haven't got a scooby what I'm doing though!!

Hammersfan said...

You and Avram then!

the headmaster said...

LOL - hopefully not propping up the bottom of the league come May! Mind you, when Stani says we've got 9 days, 9 weeks wouldn't be enough for me guys!

Stani said...

I appreciate that Headers. Some strong teams there guys. You've thrown down the gauntlet, I must admit. Pity about your team's name though HF. It's doomed to fail.

"I'm in and so is Headmaster."

"Was just about to post that I'd done one"

Flipping hell guys, are you deliberately making it easy for me now that I'm back?

HonoraryHammer said...

I'm a long time follower, first time commenter, but couldn't miss out on this. Is there a premier one too?

Sorry to hear about your family woes HF

Hammersfan said...

Cheers Honoury. Yes there is a Prem one. I'll post the details as a separate thread.

Stani, you and your mind...and fantasies.

fred149 said...

ive always liked you stani its no fun here without some debate with you and ive gone for some safe choices i believe that what i think till they all turn out crap

B4V4R14N_H4MM3R said...

My condolences HF.

I guess I'll join the GGC Fantasy Football League, too. Haven't played any of those fantasy leagues yet, but I tink it's time to give it a try.

Hammersfan said...

It promises to be fun Bavarian. Shame we can't set up a book on the final outcome!

Anonymous said...

Dont listen to fred stani. This is what he was saying when you were not here -

"owell he done this before remember. Hes just annoying anyway most of his points either contradict himself or go against what other people. Like theres a lot of people who think noble is a good player but stani automatically thinks hes bad. Then if you think gabbs is bad he will think hes good."

jimwhu said...

my condolences h f

the game is up! said...

Hi stani,

"...now that I'm back"?

It's a strange coincidence, don't you think, that the recent spate of vitriolic 'anonymous' posts ceased as soon as you returned from your sulk and resumed using your own name?

not a fan, stan! said...

00:43 - blatantly you again stani!

If fred's hurt your girlie feelings then at least be man enough to tell him yourself.

Chunky said...

Good to see you back Stani. Nobody can stir up debate like you can. You are to TGGC what Fanno was to the org lol

I'll stick a team in later today if i have a quiet day at the office.

Hammersfan said...

Except Fanno talks sense! ; }

Andy said...

There we go, that's me dipping my toe in for the first time in years!

Hammersfan said...

Crikey Andy, it has been a long time. It's not yoour toe you are supposed to dip in!

Stani said...

Fred, if it's true, don't worry about it mate. I know you're still young and impressionable and in some ways there for the taking for the more sly, evil ones amongst us. But that is a compliment to you, in a way. All I'll say is that don't judge a person on their footballing opinion as there will be plenty of other things you'll pick up about them that will allow you to form a more accurate opinion. It's why I honestly think you don't hate me, I mean, even HF doesn't!!! (His is more envy) So don't worry about it..onwards we go.

Stalker,
I know who you are mate and it's sad. You've still yet to register your team. How come?

Thanks Chunky. Received yours and Andy's teams.

...you forgot the 'non' HF!

fred149 said...

Wow what sad anon dug something up like that I mean it doesnt mean I hate your your opinions or you stani and that was about what 7 weeks ago when i thought you may be doing what you done last time when u stopped posting for a couple months geez some people

fred149 said...

and those two points at the bottom were also put there as I thought I would be able to use them to odraw you back in to commenting

Stani said...

Fred,
Seriously, don't worry about it mate. We're cool.

Stani said...

...and thanks to the person that sent me a message via my blog a few days ago. I appreciate it
