DavidCore89 7,402 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) XDBX Champions League 16-17 Fantasy Football In association with UEFA (it's not really). **Coming soon** Simply declare your interest below, costs nothing to enter and there's no prize except bragging rights (which is arguably better than any prize). No football experience or knowledge required, just a valid email address. Works the same way as both previous fantasy football competitions. Full details will be posted once we reach the minimum number of participants that I have in mind, in this case 8 teams. Cheers.

Banketelli 3,655 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I'm game. I usually forget about my team after a month when doing these season long fantasy leagues. Don't think I have ever played one to the end. Hopefully this will be the first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thread won't be as active as the Euro's, but hopefully a post near match day or transfer windows can alert everyone to the league. The matches also won't get as much coverage as the Euro's, I get every game at home, but others might not. We'll see how it goes. It could fail miserably, in that case I'll stick to major international tournaments. Chose this over the Premier League as there are less fixtures to worry about. Also this competition gets a break near Christmas which is useful. Edited August 30, 2016 by DavidCore89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fido_le_muet 5,197 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I'm in if I can keep up. I have the same concerns as Banksy ^^ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) If you guys lose interest over time, that's fine, you can drop out at any time. September - May is a long time, but there aren't that many matches. Would be cool if it worked though. It'll give someone another title to defend next time Edited August 30, 2016 by DavidCore89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zmurko 7,622 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 As long as someone reminds us of the next matchday or any transfer windows, I'm confident we can keep up for more than a month. 1 Quote S U N D A Y R A C I N G L E A G U E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banketelli 3,655 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Agreed. If we keep get thread active, it shouldn't be a problem. And yeah, Champions League is definitely easier to follow than Premier League. @DavidCore89, are we using the same site as usual? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmonkeykiller 493 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I'm in for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried to create one at Dream Team, they have an option for Europe League, but when I created the league it gave me Premier League players to choose from. So I guess they're focusing on the Premier League, unless I've made some kinda mistake. How about this: http://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/newsid=2398028.html Even free accounts can win prizes.

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) My team name was taken already, so I had to slightly alter that. Only 20 characters allowed for the league name. Anyway, here's the league: http://uclfantasy.uefa.com/en/leagues/join?leaguecode=596F7572204D756D73204174686C6574696323233432373623235844425820434C2031362D313723233034323736444457 PIN: 04276DDW. Be sure to look through the rules, It's very in-depth compared to Dream Team. I auto-filled my team for now, I'll make changes soon. I can add these guys to the league too if you like? The website suggested it, of course they won't enter our chat, it's just for extra opponents.

Banketelli 3,655 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 I've picked my team, for now, and entered the league. Who else wants to get in on this? The first round starts the 13th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 Gonna set my team shortly. Will probably add those football experts too.
