Fantasy Football - The Draft

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Thu Jul 13, 2017 8:15 pm

This year, the PL's fantasy football site has introduced a draft system option. A league can b setup for upto 16 teams; the participants that decide on a date for the draft and the fun commences.

Managers will then have a 15-man squad, with the players unique to their side rather than the usual system where each manager transfers in Lukaku and we all get the points for him, then marvelling at our captaincy choices and the odd guy who had Capoue from the first game for some reason.

I thought I'd anywhere was to be the place to get this going, it would be here. Who is interested?

Didn't see the huge surge of interest! We need to settle on a date to do the draft, I believe.

by Fernando Sun Jul 23, 2017 8:37 pm

Is it a live draft?

by Fernando Mon Jul 24, 2017 7:58 pm

id have thought so since 15 picks each tbh

by Trebs Tue Jul 25, 2017 12:54 pm

Sounds interesting to me Smile

by BamBam Tue Jul 25, 2017 1:20 pm

Getting a date for the draft could be tricky

Sunday evenings probably the best for me, or late on a weeknight

by compelling and rich Tue Jul 25, 2017 5:40 pm

whats happens say if someone buys sanchez then just before window hes sold abroad? with the draft already being done all the top players would have gone

by Fernando Wed Jul 26, 2017 10:55 am

Then you screwed & can choose from what's left.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sun Jul 30, 2017 3:35 pm

You pick up someone who is free.

Just done one with 7 people; stressful to do and certainly screwed if you're late pick first up.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sun Jul 30, 2017 4:19 pm

Saturday or Sunday afternoon works best for me as I'm currently 9 hours in the future

by compelling and rich Mon Jul 31, 2017 11:13 am

by Fernando Mon Jul 31, 2017 11:35 am

Well it's gotta be done before week 1 so i assume this sunday is probably the best day to do it.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Aug 01, 2017 7:53 am

ALL IN FAVOUR OF SUNDAY AFTERNOON SAY AYE

by BamBam Tue Aug 01, 2017 8:57 am

Evening better for me

by Trebs Tue Aug 01, 2017 9:44 am

Weekends are terrible for me to be honest. Would prefer a weeknight.

by Fernando Tue Aug 01, 2017 11:44 am

Im free anytime that isn't Friday or Saturday

by BamBam Tue Aug 01, 2017 12:02 pm
