Ari Gold 1,359 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I created my Fantasy Premier League team yesterday, had a lot of fun creating that team even though I'll probably do sh*t again and half of my squad will get injured. I don't think setting up a league for us GTAFers would be a bad idea. Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose we could set a GTAF fantasy league up again. I know Gareth Croke did it last year and I have no idea how to do it. I forgot about mine after gameweek 6. Link to post Share on other sites
Banks. 5,730 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Yeah everybody forgets about their fantasy team after a few games. Wouln't hurt setting one up though Link to post Share on other sites
Crokey 10,456 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 It's easy to set up a Fantasy Football League thing but yeah you end up forgetting it, mainly because no one has the commitment to it, and that's not me calling anyone lazy, because most of us have got sh*t to get on with.

True. I think I forgot mine within 6 weeks of starting it and then went on it again near the end of the season to find out how miserable I was doing and how many of my starting 11 were injured.

King Of Monra 7 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I actually might have to give it a miss this season, we'll see if I'll be able to predict in september, though I will most likely be without internet that month. Link to post Share on other sites
JOSEPH X 132 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I'll wait until after the Community Shield to make a prediction, but I expect Chelsea and Man City to be very strong this season. Could this be United's first time out of the CL places this year? Link to post Share on other sites
Max 1,653 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Top 4. 1.Chelsea 2.Manchester United 3. Arsenal 4.Manchester City Bottom 3 18.Stoke 19.Hull 20. Crystal Palace. Best promoted team: Cardiff, I think they'll wind up around 15th. Its risky making a prediction before the windows even finished and a balls been kicked but I'm at least fairly confident about my bottom 3. Special Agent Hughes will continue his awful career and Hull and Palace are miles off the pace. Link to post Share on other sites
Vercetti42 1,745 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I'll wait until after the Community Shield to make a prediction, but I expect Chelsea and Man City to be very strong this season. Could this be United's first time out of the CL places this year? Exactly what I am expecting. I have a feeling this is going to be Mourinho's year and for some reason I don't expect United to finish in the CL places at all (Even though I did predict them a 4th place finish) look they lost their first 2 pre-season games, true a second string side but losing to small teams is really not going to help. Yes like Tommy said it was their first few games after their break but I don't expect Moyes's United to perform well this season, probably a string of late consecutive wins but nothing more than 4th place IMO and definitely no sliverware. Plus if Rooney does transfer to Chelsea and United fail to buy Fabregas, it's going to dent their chances even more. I hate to say it but it's what I expect to happen in my honest opinion.

Could this be United's first time out of the CL places this year? I hate to admit it, but I'm not as confident for this season than all the other seasons that I can ever remember. That doesn't mean I think they will do poor, but it'll definitely be a struggle at the least and it will certainly be harder to be in the top 4. I still think they have a shout for the title like most United fans would, but there is without doubt more competition with Chelsea & City this season. Speaking of football, only 3 more weeks until it starts. Link to post Share on other sites

Nlwt 731 Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 Glad to see some new faces in here, including yourself Mr. Cooke. Link to post Share on other sites
Banks. 5,730 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 This season is going to be crazy. I just feel sorry for the person who has to do the tables Maybe we should set up a schedule for people who are doing the tables? I also think there should be two people doing the table so if there is any mistakes then they quickly identified. Let's not kid ourselves, this season is going to be crazy since there are so many predicting! Link to post Share on other sites
Ari Gold 1,359 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I think a schedule's a bit inflexible. We all have different priorities in real life and we'd have to coordinate them to find the best schedule. In my opinion, first-come-first-serve in publishing the results (basically, the first person who can be bothered counting up and tallying after all the matches have been completed in a particular match-day) works the best, with at least one other person keeping track to make sure everything is correct. Plus, everyone should (as a matter of sheer care) keep track of their own personal score, just in case the table, after two counts, is still incorrect (which shouldn't happen to often). That's genuinely how it's been done for the past 4 or 5 seasons that this game has been going for and, despite a few minor hiccups which are quickly corrected, I think it's worked fine. There's enough accountability to make sure that no mistakes pervade the table for weeks upon weeks. Like, most of the time I'm more than happy to do the table if I can be bothered to; but, because we're all in different time-zones, if Nathan, for example, ends up online before me on the Monday/Sunday night/whenever and decides to do the tables, then, well, he can. The vice versa applies as well. The same system works if on a particular Monday, I'm beyond lazy and simply cannot be f*cked doing the tables, then you or Nathan or Joseph or whoever can do the tables. So, really, first-come-first-serve, with people keeping track of their own score to make sure that the person doing the table that week didn't f*ck the count up. Link to post Share on other sites
Nlwt 731 Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 First come first serve sounds good to me. That way it won't be the same person doing it every week. Link to post Share on other sites
Joseph Cooke 70 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Here is a BBCode table generator, keeps the table organized and is pretty easy to use. Will pitch in whenever. Link to post Share on other sites
Hodgey. 2,034 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Ill pitch in if you want me too, maybe there should be a list of 5-10 people who can post the table as knowing GTAF well probably get some new guy who joined yesterday trying to do tables and f*cking it up completley Link to post Share on other sites
