Topic: Times FREE Fantasy Football - Elite League Now Full: Div 2 launched

[gramck24]

Nice... Have been allocated 8th for the Div 2 draw which isnt bad.

The Division 2 allocation is tomorrow i thought.

Is the current allocation table just set at default till tomorrow?

[gramck24]

The allocation of players is tomorrow, but the 'order' in which people get their picks is up there now.

Happy days... i'm top of the pile

[gramck24]

Indeed, you'll get your first choice, so choose it well. Then 38 other players will be swiped from under your nose before you get another 2 chances

So basically i'll get the No.1 on my list then each of the other teams get allocated there No.1 provided it hasn't been taken?

Followed by the whole system in reverse (No.2 pick) before i start back again as my No.3 pick (provided not taken)?

[Kaizer]

I'm offering cech in a swap for any half decent centre back.

I`m not going to play this game, but Cech is worth the Carra`s , gerrards, Toresse`s of this world, not some other dross.

This offer was for free, with Reina and Cech you have set yourself up in a great position mate, dont waste it.

Michael Brown available!! id pay to get rid!

[Nicoliverpool]

6th for div 2, not bad even though i'm not too sure of what i'm doing.

[TheRedBull]

Does anybody have a goalie they're willing to get rid of?

Do you interested in Isaksson? Martin Petrov would be a nice swap for me.

[Hightown Phil]

Which soft twat just offered me Bocanegra for Ferdinand?

[swordfishtrombone]

is there gonna be a third league..?

we need 5-20 names to get it started. anyone else interested?

[gramck24]

What time will the player allocation be for Div 2?

[claRED]

What time will the player allocation be for Div 2?

Dunno... I'm in another league too and that was already done by 7am this morning. It must be working through them gradually...

Got a pretty good squad... Tevez, Ashton, Bent, Reina, James, Agger etc but that was with just 10 entrants in the league! 

[Marcus6]

Am looking for a CM, RB, RM

Have many CBs on offer.

Negotiable

[-HH-]

Do you interested in Isaksson? Martin Petrov would be a nice swap for me.

He's injured for a month. So no.

[guest]

What time will the player allocation be for Div 2?

It has already started. Halfway through.

[mjgill85]

He's injured for a month. So no.

Is he? And I'd bumped him up my list to make sure I got a half-decent goalie. Time to re-analyse and re-order...

[-HH-]

Michael Brown available!! id pay to get rid!

So you'll pay to get rid but you reckon I should give you Evra for him?

May I kindly ask you to go fuck yourself.

[mjgill85]

Is he? And I'd bumped him up my list to make sure I got a half-decent goalie. Time to re-analyse and re-order...

Too late

[-HH-]

Too late

Never mind. You can probably trade him with someone who doesn't get a good goalie and doesn't realise he's injured - so long as they don't read this thread

[marvellous10]

in no mans land no.14 for draw - fuck knows what I'm to do now regards to rankings! 

[Rushian]

Rank it properly and you may be surprised. From the Elite League the quality of the squads paid little resemblance to the initial draw order.

[StevenLFC]

My team's shaping up quite well, as it goes. Jussi in goal, Eboue, Sagna, Silvestre, Downing, Van Persie... Gonna get some shite now to fill out the squad, but it's far from as bad as it could have been

Are you in Div 2? If so how do you check your current team.

Never mind, I've got mine, and t's looking good. Got both Cech & Robinson as keepers, Chimbonda at left back, Carvalho & Sol Campbell at the back, might need a CF though if things don't shape up.

Agree with Rushian. I'm a bit annoyed I catered too much to being number seventeen. Picked a few players who are solid but not spectacular (ie: Gary O'Neil and Ki Hyeon) as opposed to better options.

Our kid tells me he had Tevez as number three, and Shevchenko as number four. He got both of them, despite Shevchenko being the 36th pick of the draft. So you would be surprised, certainly.

My team is looking again, solid but nothing special. A good squad so far.

Reina; Jose Enrique, Richards, Bocanegra, Halford; Ki Hyeon, Koumas, Noble, O'Neill; Johnson, Earnshaw.

Players like Cahill to return from injury... and then Diomansy Camara on the bench. Will definately be engaging in a few swaps I'd imagine. We shall see.

I picked Solano and Cattermole too high but other than that I'm pretty pleased so far. If Owen stays fit he could be a steal with my 3rd pick.

Can't believe Marcus took Dean Ashton number 2 overall in the Elite league, he went 36th in ours.

Points of interest: 'Forza Reds' took Robben, Agger went number 5 overall, Pizzaro went higher than Shevchenko, Nicky Shorey went before Ashley Cole, Solano went before Wright-Phillips, Carew at 176 could be a steal, as could Nolan at 196, 'Keep French Scouse' took Mark Gonzales.

Oh, and 'Not A Chance' took Titus Bramble,

I've got a cunning plan, it will all come together mwah hah hah

[StevenLFC]

How many players do we get, is it all done now?

[guest]

Why the fuck did I put Bocanegra over Nolan?

Oh well, he gets a few goals from the back.

Absolutely kicking myself over O'Neil as well. I had a system and it hasn't worked.

[claRED]

So far... not too bad but quite a few injury prone! Bit un-balanced too with all those lefties. Lucky to get Carson - pretty low down list may have been struggling for a keeper otherwise. I take it he's defo at Villa now:

It seems to have stopped temporarily on 14 but I think we get 20 in the end

Well two of my players (Beattie & McCulloch) don't even play in the league anymore. I'm willing to trade Paul Robinson to somebody in return for a decent striker.

Yep, but it's not showing when I log in

So, if you have two decent left midfielders (for example), can you play both in the one team, or am i better swapping one of them?

[The Bill Hicks Appreciation Society]

So, if you have two decent left midfielders (for example), can you play both in the one team, or am i better swapping one of them?

depends if they're able to play elsewhere, if they're generally deployed elsewhere in real life then you should be able to. for instance in my other league i've got traore who's a leftback but i've got an abundance of left backs and it says he can also play central defence so i've got him and vidic, at centre back and aurelio and gallas (can play centre, left and right back) at full back
