The Journeyman Draft II - Marcus Bent edition



Rules

- 11 rounds, in the normal snake draft format.

- Pick players since the Premier League Inception in 1992 to present.

- Once you have picked a player from a team, then you can no longer pick any other player(s) who played for that Premier League team which that player selected played for.

For example, if you select Marcus Bent you will no longer to select players from Crystal Palace, Blackburn Rovers, Leicester City, Ipswich Town, Everton, Wigan, Charlton or Wolves.  However you could pick players from QPR or Middlesbrough, as he didn't play for those clubs in the Premier League.


Signed up so far:

Klippity Klopp
Betty
Vishwa Atma
Tubby
Greatness
Lastrador
XabiArt
'Mondzz'
Eel Lobo
Rysoph
Hazell

One more space.  After that teaming needs to occur.


Any questions?  :)

Any questions?  :)

If a player has played in the Premiership for one club but also has previous clubs in the old division 1, do all the clubs he played for count or only the ones in the Premier League era?

Only Premier League clubs count.

The club that a player might have previously played for in the old Div 1 don't count.

The players have to have made an appearance as well.  Even if it is just one sub app. 

So no Peter Shilton.

If you add together the number of times Gullit played CB for Chelsea and multiply it by AWWUC's twins then you'll have my answer.

Forgot all about him. Picking the world's most expensive footballer from way down in the order will be a hell of a coup.

Special thanks to Hazell for stopping me from picking that Manc prick Keane  ;D  Always loved Vieira. First time I've ever drafted him too! Shame he had to have that last money spinning stint at City. Still, not too bothered about losing them.

It was between him and Cantona tbf but I didn't want to loose a future Leeds pick, so Van Horseface got the nod. Thinking ahead boys, thinking ahead.

Don't get me wrong, I was eyeing him up for a later pick, just thought he might go a few rounds later.

Anyway, I feel like so many times in drafts my pick comes around in the morning when I.m sleeping. My pick is just around the corner so could really do with getting y turns out of the way since I'll almost definitely be skipped tomorrow
