Which teams do the new predictathoners support? Do we have more Liverpool, Spuds or a Man Utd at last?

Newbies:

CIE560 = Man Utd
blib = Spurs
Glenred = Liverpool

But we've lost...

Lord Grover = Spurs
v15ben = Liverpool

So 'net' we're up 1 manc and our 1st manc at that! It'll be nice to see a table with the name Manchester United at the other end of it for a change

[Blib]

I've decided to support Chelsea from now on. It's their attackng, free flowing style that attracted me. Or Manchester City coz I like the baby blue shirts.

Decisions, decisions.

I'll probably fall off the end of the table.

Am I too late to get in on some of this action?

[Legend83]

YES YES YES!!

Please?

This sounds fun. Room for a little un?

Oxford Drinker is running it next season (12/13) and I think he's away until next week so you may not hear until then.

Then again...

[London424]

Why not, if there's still room I'm in.

You know......with this much interest, if Oxford's spreadsheet has taken a lot of the manual work out of it or Jammy can come up with a VBA solution to drastically cut the workload then it might be do-able to have a 'Championship' and 'Premier League' type thingy with say 16-18 players in each.

Promotion & Relegation would seriously inject new life into it.

Jus' thinking out loud.

Any room left?

When I said I wasn't doing it next season at least 3 people came forward and offered to take it on.

If the workload has been reduced by OD or can be by Jammy then perhaps one of those who originally offered might like to take on the 'Championship'.

As I said, just thinking out loud.

Hello Chaps, back from my travels.

Dan_1981, are you in or out, mate?

We have for this year 25 from last year plus possibly Dan_1981 (LordGrover and v15ben are not competing this time)

New players are:
GLENRED
blib
CIE560
Keyser Sore
Raja
London424
Streetm89

Can the newbies please let us know which teams they support (for banter purposes, obviously).

WE NOW HAVE 32-33 PLAYERS SO I'M AFRAID WE'RE FULL FOR NEXT SEASON

New thread with draft set of rules for 2012-2013 will be started later today, I will post a link when it's live.
