New Season!!

It’s now just over three weeks to the start of the new football season and time to launch my usual footy comps again! As per previous seasons, I will be running a Fantasy Football league, a Super 6 league and a Last Man Standing competition. More detail on each below.

FANTASY FOOTBALL
I will be running this again in conjunction with the official Premier League competition. As per the past couple of seasons, it’s a £10 entry fee. There will be a league competition along with two cup competitions – one in the style of the Champions League (with a group stage) and the other a straight knockout competition (this will be administered by the Premier League site towards the end of the season). 57 people joined in last season – meaning a prize fund of £570 was available across the league and cup competitions. Details of last season’s competitions can be viewed here. Send your entry fee across and make sure you join up into the league before the deadline (payment details at the foot of this post). The league code is zqim5u. This is a new league – you will need to add yourself in! Any queries, drop me a message.

SUPER 6
I will be running this again in conjunction with the Sky Super 6 competition. As per the past couple of seasons, it’s a £10 entry fee. There will be a league competition along with two cup competitions – one in the style of the Champions League (with a group stage) and the other a straight knockout competition. 45 players joined in last season – meaing £450 across the league and cups. Details of last season’s competitions can be viewed here.
Send your entry fee across and make sure you join up into the league before the deadline (payment details at the foot of this post). The league code is Z2T7HK. This is a new league – you will need to add yourself in! Any queries, drop me a message.

LAST MAN STANDING
I have created a separate post with more detail for this but a new LMS game will start on the opening game of the season. 5 games were played last season, with a total prize fund of £2655 (with £932 still to be paid out on a separate game that will continue into the new season!). Entry fee will remain as £5. More information is in a separate post but (for those that haven’t played before) you need to pick a team that you think will win their game that given weekend – they win and you go through: draw or lose and you are out. Rinse and repeat for subsequent rounds until the last person is standing and takes the prize pot – you cant pick the same team twice. Full rules can be viewed here, previous games can be viewed in the Hall of Fame.
