We may not do as well as Chelsea, but at least we're not horrible people.

sonicl · 08.06.2007, 01:23 PM

Oooh, get you...

Hip Priest · 08.07.2007, 05:49 AM

Are you two going to be the Ferguson and Wenger of the Sonic League?

sonicl · 08.07.2007, 05:57 AM

No, we'll definitely be the Benitez and Mourinho. Bagsy I'm the Special One.

This one is very easy to maintain - you only have fifteen players, and you can only change your team once per week or so anyway (there is a deadline each week), so even if some weeks are missed it's unlikely to be too costly over the course of a season.

the world cup one went well and was a lot of fun indeed. i wasn't so sure whether a premier league one would be succesful but it looks like this one's going to do well also.
i'll probably have a team finished by saturday... 15 players i can deal with i'm sure.

sonicl · 08.07.2007, 07:13 AM

Can we see the squads that our rivals have picked, or are they a secret? I've clicked on the team names, but all I can see are the kits.

pokkeherrie · 08.07.2007, 07:17 AM

I haven't registered yet, but I imagine that should be possible. It was definitely possible in that World Cup Yahoo one.

Maybe they're just secret until it starts?

PAULYBEE2656 · 08.07.2007, 08:13 AM

ok im in

FAUXHEMIANS FC

Bertrand · 08.07.2007, 08:56 AM

Everybody's team will be seen at the end of the very first game (that was made to avoid copycat squads).

Hip Priest · 08.08.2007, 05:57 AM

Well spotted, Bertrand. I'd been wondering about that.

pokkeherrie · 08.08.2007, 06:50 AM

That seems fair. I've just registered and I'm trying to get a team together now. I like how they're using colours to show which players are currently injured/doubtful, so that you won't have to follow all the latest football news yourself. Excellent. I hope Leroy Lita isn't seriously injured though as he was my "cheap" striker of choice until now. Or maybe I should just throw out Drogba and take Berbatov instead so that I have more money for another striker...

PAULYBEE2656 · 08.08.2007, 10:43 AM

do the damage my friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PAULYBEE2656 · 08.08.2007, 10:44 AM

my strike force is pretty formidable actually. im proud of it! hopefully my gamble on cheap midfielders wont backfire!

jimbrim · 08.08.2007, 10:51 AM

I clicked on auto-complete, and recieved some pretty average players. I'm not sure if i can reselect my team now though. Anyway, ive got Alonso, Ljungberg, Defoe and Lehmann in goal, so it's not all bad, but my defence is shit!

farmhouse · 08.08.2007, 12:04 PM

okay, the dream/aktion unit are in!

you fuckers are all going down!

nick2767 · 08.08.2007, 12:24 PM

PAULYBEE2656 · 08.08.2007, 03:23 PM

LIQUID FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!

bye the bye, shouldnt we be keeping our teams a bit secret from each other as well? in the pure spirit of competition and all!

Hip Priest · 08.08.2007, 05:01 PM

We're up to ten members! Excellent.

Bertrand · 08.08.2007, 05:17 PM

I tried to pick a team packed with Taylors, Johnsons, Davises, Johns and Murphys only, but couldn't - too expensive it said. Silly me.

Hip Priest · 08.08.2007, 05:28 PM

I always consider making a team of players with long hair.

Or players all from one country.
