UM Fantasy Premiere League, League.

[danydandan]

I have set up a UM Fantasy Premiere League, league if anyone is interested.

Code is  2119797-563590.

https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/home.

Link to website above.

However I'm not sure if this goes against UM rules.

I'll join if we can get enough players but it might be a bit short notice. It starts on Friday.

Maybe tag a few members you think might be interested.

I really have no clue who might be interested. I'll tag some of the people who replied on the World Cup thread see if they are interested.

Cant think of anyone else maybe you might know of some people too?

[Essan]

I'm in!   Being playing FPL for a few years   

[danydandan]

Sweet two people so far, including me

[Essan]

I am sure there are a few other UM members who already play FPL - and they can, of course join the league after the season has started.

But for those who haven't played before, or no seriously, some good tips here:

There's no minimum numbers for a league - but obviously the more who play, the more competitive and fun it is

On the website, I'm using a mobile version, so hopefully the two versions are interchange.

Sign in. Click the expand the 'more' tab. Select Leagues then select the create or join a league. New tab opens, select join existing league and input the following code.

Hopefully that's the same as the full version website as it is on the mobile.

[Essan]

Aye, on the full version, just click on the Leagues tab  

[Essan]

If you click on the More tab and then Help, and then Rules, you will find a list of how points are given.

Basically, it's:

2pts for playing 60+ minutes
4 pts for a defender/keeper keeping a clean sheet
6 pts for a defender scoring
5 pts for a midfielder scoring
4 pts for a forward scoring
3pts for anyone assisting a goal

Deductions for cards etc

Bonus points (1, 2 or 3 pts) awarded based on performance


 

[LucidElement]

I got 2 of my buddies in the league.  3 of us are already in.

Better off, he gets more points scoring from midfield.

I've never done fantasy soccer before but if calling it soccer doesn't preclude me from signing up and you need another ill join.

Your more than welcome to join. Everyone is

[LucidElement]

For some reason my buddy is entering that code under private league and it's telling them invalid code. However it worked for me and my other friend.

[LucidElement]

Also can I make changes to my roster after I've already submitted it?

[Essan]

You can make as many changes to your team as you like up until 1 hour before kick-off on Friday night (first game of the season).   After that, one free transfer per week (or deduct 4 points for each additional transfer).   You have one wild card - as many free transfers as you want in one week - to use before the end of the year and a second one to use in the 2nd half of the season.

 

btw when I first copied the leagure code I accidently copied that full stop on the end - the code doesn't work then!
