It's been mentioned before ..... anyway we're going to run a twelve team fantasy league. It'll be a little bit more sophisticated than traditional fantasy football, and hopefully a bit more interesting and insightful.
We'll be drafting players , like in the Fantasy Premiership Draft (but it won't take month to do it) - and the points system will be based on a whole lot more than simply goals, assists and clean sheets. I intend to have some system for trading players, picking up new players etc throughout the season , similar to what you'd typically get in Fantasy Baseball.
A lot of details need fine-tuning and I think it's best to get those who will be playing to contribute to how the game will run.
The draft for this one is not going to drag on over a month. Anyone getting in will have to agree to being available to pick at specific times. Maybe three one hour blocks over the space of 10 days. That way everyone picks under the same time pressure etc, and those with a plan get the benefit of planning ahead.
The Count, Fabio, Herr Onceared, Stevie M, Gerry and myself have tossed around a few ideas for it already. We'll post them up as we go along. But the first task is to determine who makes up the 12.
A few people PM'd me already, so anyone else interested in playing say so. The sooner we get the 12 identified, the sooner we can sort out the rules and get shit going
