Aye aye lads! U'll have to check the rules again U can have a 4-3-3 formation if you like. Having won a few private leagues before, I can confidently tell you that titles are won and lost with your strike force

Blimey a pro. Will use my wildcard to replicate your team entirely then. Have you ever won any prizes?

Only won money at work. I have probably jinxed it now though. Normally only about 15 of us at work so this is a much bigger league

Or even a 3-4-3 which is my personal favourite

Got my team pretty much sorted, though it does hinge on Sturridge going on loan again. He looked class for Bolton at the end of last season.

Yup 3-4-3 for me as well !

richp007 - damit!
"I will reveal tho that I have Aguero, Suarez and Hernandez up front"

There mine !

Must admit I like the new UI for the fantasy league.

The trick is to review the fixtures and keep an eye on who's in form and keep on tinkering with your team. If points were had on the number of subs made in one season then I'd definately win. 50 odd last season!!

The first week is always a gamble as not every player/team hits the road running. Seems a tighter budget this year !

Cheers and good luck anyone.

Ive always tended to be a 3-5-2 man myself. Mids get higher points for goals, plus a clean sheet bonus and are more likely to snag an assist or 2.

Top 3 points scorers last year were midfielders.

Just stick a striker in a midfield position or a midfielder in a defender position

Wot about the history forget about money, did you know (so a mate tells me) that game (Celtic v Red Star) is the LOST game..... there is no tv footage of this except for some guy in the states that copied from his tv screen which would suggest that the game is somewhere out there......
oh... btw...... it is famously called "The Jinky Game.....scored two and made three....
big Jock promised him he wouldn't have to travel to Belgrade if Celtic won by three or four goals..... needless to say the big man tried to persuade Jimmy to go...... the wee mans answer was ~~~~~GTF so well worth winning then

My integrity was challenged on the prize for the winner of the Celtic supporters League 191503-60215 so allow me to show proof of the programme but unfortunately the act of me sending it is based on a trust thing. All I can say believe in a Bhoy
