I'll join Samie's draft if you need an extra body.

i suppose if we dont bother with knock out voting any more then we can have any number of participants.

I think that experiment failed to be honest. Knock-outs are fine as long as we don't lose momentum and get them up straight after a draft is finished.

I'm on board with that, wanted a knockout for the last one, my team was awesome!

Samie's draft. Whenever he's ready i suppose. I could maybe do the draft order and start the selection thread, if Samie doesn't mind of course, or if he's not around much tonight

Samie · « **Reply #2008 on:** April 13, 2017, 05:21:32 pm »

Lman you do the honours.

And again than you for naming the draft after me. I might name my first born after you.

Right who's going to actually organise this shit? it's one thing to suggest it and then sit on your arse.

We were having a casual conversation but per usual you bound in like a springer spaniel after a tennis ball when it comes to these yokes. You're always keen to get these things going but find someone else to do them. Now, you're doing a fucking draft for once kid

Samie · « **Reply #2018 on:** April 13, 2017, 05:40:46 pm »

Yeah i mentioned it never said I wanted to do one.

It's your draft Samie. People are even calling it Samies draft

. You're the biggest draft hound round here anyway. How come you never do vote threads??

No, that was for if you've got any drafts planned. Not the creating of threads and what not. \Which is what Lman is on about.

Shaving our balls? If you wanna put a razor blade to your nutsack, feel free. But keep them away from mine, thank you very much

Maybe this is already done on here, if so can someone please point me towards it.

If not...

Would people be up for doing a Premier League Fantasy Football Draft?

From the official site:

https://fantasy.premierleague.com/

So we draft our teams on here. But then we have no transfers all season and it is done on who drafted the best / predicted who'd do the best.

Any thoughts / ideas - how it could work, welcome?!

Lastrador · « **Reply #2029 on:** July 12, 2017, 06:13:23 pm »

Drafts are dead mate, like sooo dead.

Football drafts are dead unless someone comes up with a revolutionary idea.

We exhausted them all. That's what happens when you start one draft before you even finish the last one

I'll probably run a World Cup draft in the summer though. Maybe make it a sheep draft.

I'd happily run/help run a sheep draft for anyone who wants.

I've started on a list of criteria for each of the rounds, so we can team up when the time comes

Pretty sure drafting will feel pretty fresh again if we wait a whole year!

Samie · « **Reply #2034 on:** July 20, 2017, 05:43:36 pm »

You've started a list 11 months in advance?

It was actually for the Euros last year, but that draft never materialised. I think the criteria will be pretty similar anyway.

I've been away for quite a bit now, and don't visit this board often, but if you're ever doing a Sheep Football Draft, count me in!

They actually have the new draft feature this season.

IF we got 8+ people we could do a draft tomorrow night if enough people were interested?!

I'll create a league.

Everyone signs up.

Then we all decide a time when to do the draft (before the 1st match, so Friday night) and we select the players we want.

The points are the same as they do on the normal fantasy football.
