UK Getbig Fantasy Football Thread

Who's up for this?

We could base our valuations/players on the Sun.co.uk Fantasy Football League, and do our own one on here.

Could even have a small entry fee and then a nice couple of drinks for the winner...

Good stuff.

I'll sort out some rules etc when i'm at lunch today - it'll be the same as the Sun I'd imagine, 2 transfer windows etc.

We could get Steve Arce and Quickerblade to set up a trust fund paypal for the winner  ;D

Great idea
The sun allows you to create your own mini league so we could have our own getbig league.

thanks bro

Now that you mention it, if we can get 10-12 here for an FFL league, that would be pretty cool.

We also need a EPL thread once the season kicks off.

Okay lads, just did a bit of digging and the official rules for 14/15 season are out on the website from 01.08.14 so I will summarise the rules then.

i might be. i always lose interest midway through the season though.

anyroad, FANTASY PREMIERE LEAGUE is miles better than the suns effort. and its free.

should we register on one of these sites and just post our scores up here

we could all chip in for some sort of end of season prize

Yep, we'll actually do the league on the site (set up a UKGetbig mini league) and then every Monday post up the scores in this thread.

How much you reckon we should chip in?

Obviously Joon needs to put up £2k, which brings it down to a £5 each for the rest of us  ;D

Looked into the Premier League one that Brad suggested, but it will be a an admin nightmare if we want to do a mini league - everyone has to select their squad for each game etc etc and it's more like championship manager. The regular Premier League Fantasy Footy on there is ok, but no mini leagues.

The Sun site won't show any more info on 14/15 until tomorrow.
