Hi everybody!

Euro 2012 is about to start in less than 10 days.
Here's the even year opportunity to create a virtual team packed with real life injured players and sulky stars.

I've created a championship and would greet you all there for some vicarious fun.

Step one, build your team at :
http://en.euro2012fantasy.uefa.com/
[http://fr.euro2012fantasy.uefa.com/ is the same, there are probably other extensions for every country to make the rules an easier read]

Step two, join the league (Leakweed Football; for some reason...), its code being :
211821-48892

Eh eh eh...

[gast30]

[gast30]

[the ikara cult]

Im in

Lewandowski captain for matchday one, reckon he's gonna pay dividends

[SonicBebs]

that was really hard picking the squad. mainly because most of the european players i know are the well known ones who cost the most. pretty happy though.

shame you cant change formation with this

[!@#$%!]

fucking thing sez "you've picked too many players from germany" "you've picked too many players from spain". well duh! ha ha ha i'm having the same problem as sonicbebs.

[SonicBebs]

heh, just worked out how to change formation!

[the ikara cult]

I havent actually read the rules, do they only give points for goals, assists, clean sheets or is it more complicated?

[!@#$%!]

the points go like this:
Action Points For playing in a game 1 For playing at least 60 minutes in a game (includes playing points mentioned above) 2 For each goal scored by your goalkeeper or defenders 6 For each goal scored by your midfielders 5 For each goal scored by your forwards 4 For each goal assist * 3 For your goalkeeper conceding 0 goals (must also play at least 60 minutes) 4 For your defenders conceding 0 goals (must also play at least 60 minutes) 4 For your midfielders conceding 0 goals (must also play at least 60 minutes) 1 For earning a penalty after the referee adjudges that the player had been fouled 1 For conceding a penalty after the referee adjudges that an infringement takes place in the penalty area that results in a kick from the penalty spot -1 For every penalty miss -2 For every penalty save 5 For every 2 goals conceded by your goalkeeper or defenders -1 For every yellow card -1 For every red card (includes any yellow card points) -3 For every 3 saves 1 For every 5 recovered balls (the total of clearances completed and gaining possession tackles)
