Fantasy Football 2016/17

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

For those that don't know for the last 2 years we've competed against fans of The Cure at fantasy football and given them a good battering.

It's 11 Sisters fans v 11 Cure fans.

This season we may have some spare places so if you're interested then put your name below.

I'm going to give priority to the original 11 but if anyone hasn't taken up their place by the end of Thursday 4th August then places will be allocated on a first come first served basis to people whose names are in this thread.

You'll need to have your team registered before the season starts on August 13th.

The link to the fantasy football is:

Be aware that this is going to take a few minutes of your time each week to ponder transfers and substitutions. If you don't think you can give that time then please don't apply. It's important to us that everyone plays their part in beating The Cure fans again.

I'll be happy to sign back up, some of it had started to make sense towards the end of last season, well the bits that don't involve ill-educated guess work and crystal balls anyway. Hopefully my scores this season may reflect that a bit.

Mark - love the McMahon 8)

Working with the Hungarian Shed Dweller at the moment to correct his over exuberance in launching the leagues. That already existed. :roll:

A strategic plan has been actioned, but needs an overnight update from FPL to take effect.

Stay calm. Do nothing, and wait for tomorrow.

Full confirmation will appear in the FF section tomorrow.

Thank you for your patience.
What a season
