Bloody hell, it must be getting close to the time to start this old circus up again.
I would like to match, if not exceed, last season's entry of 16 teams (well, 15 competitive ones and MegaChedda), and will of course reserve entry for experienced Phantasy campaigners.
Please remember that you are making a pledge to at least check up on your team once a month or so and keep them active by dabbling in the transfer market.
Sign up below with your team name. Bidding for players will start on Saturday 2nd August.

I'm up for it.
"Marginal Realisation Of Stock Acuities In The Short-Medium Term United Plc" hope to do better than the "Filthy Fokkers" did in their debut season.

I've not done one of these before, but I'm happy to give it a go.
A name? How about "Up steps John Terry"?

"I would like to match, if not exceed, last season's entry of 16 teams (well, 15 competitive ones and MegaChedda)"
Forgetting someone?
Given that I have a different team name every year, I'll go with "Perennial Makeweights" for this season.

Sorry B - I'll have to cry off again due to personal commitments - I even missed a couple of FF games last season.

No worries. There's still a spot open for you when you wish to make your comeback.

Ah. That time of year already?
I think I'll go for "Imaginary Madrid" as a team name this time round.

me[Andy]g Posted Jul 23, 2008
Indeed it is 
I was forced to use it last year on fantasy.premierleague.com as someone had already taken "Unreal Madrid" and "Complex Madrid"... perhaps I should come up with something more original in the future...

Can I just say that, amongst quite a few potentially defamatory, weight-ist, rude-sounding and potentially-insulting-to-someone-somewhere team names, Otto's team name is grossly offensive to WRACs.

Back for another shot. I'll be Gareth Barry Town this year.
