Admin of each league will PM members to find a mutually agreeable draft time for the group's members, or the best possible for most. Those who can't make it get autodrafted and Froggy complains about it for the next season Yeah but don't be scared by this. It doesn't sound too shit as the AI drafts based on your shortlist of players. And you can set the order too.

Shit is happening.

Just to note. All you have to do as admin is to create the league, pm the code to your group and set up the draft time you've agreed amongst yourselves. Can someone volunteer from group B please?

You all should apollogise for these terrible puns.

The results are in. Thank you for voting. Moving on. http://i.imgur.com/XRGgV5j.png

Agreed.

Like your original idea of first 8 get boxed off and a LM gets chosen among them. Easier for you too! Yeah lets do it like this. Only question is how big leagues we want though. 8, 10, 12...doesn't make it any harder for me.

Also if people prefer larger groups (means everyone has to take more crap players, might make it interesting?) let me know. I'll add a poll.

Actually it will probably be easiest if we just form leagues of 8 in the order people post here. Then once 8 names come up they're good to go and decide the time for draft.

New game mode this season that runs separate from the classic Fantasy Premier League. https://draft.premierleague.com/ We'll form leagues of 8-10 teams and in those groups you draft players to your team in turns. There's no budget or anything like that. The draft will be held at a time of your groups choosing. Even if you think it will be difficult for you to attend the draft, don't worry. You can set up a shortlist of players in a priority order and the computer will draft for you according to that list. According to the website, 8 teams is the recommended league size. Wouldn't go below that but perhaps up to 10 if there's a lot of interest so we can keep the number of the leagues reasonable. E: We'll go with groups of 10.

I'll add names here and divide the leagues (and name admins who'll create the leagues and send invites) in due time. Group A: 1. Kasper - group admin 2. neesy111 3. Scottish Mag 4. leffe186 5.

True. Need one or two moderators to help.

Should make another topic for draft leagues. Divide everyone who fancies it into groups of 8-10 and post the groups in the opening post etc etc etc. Good/bad idea? Shall I?

You couldn't be more wrong. Of course there's the odd budget buy or the expensive flop but statistically higher wages means higher position on the table. You spend money = you finish higher Simple.

People are so retarded.

I wouldn't try to fit him in. Won't be scoring as many points now with Lacazette in the team and doubt the effort will be there either if he ends up staying. I've gone for Lacazette anyway, think he'll fill his boots. If you take Gayle then other strikers become more affordable. Just Lukaku vs Kane for the other choice. Same (ish). Apparently Kane has been a bit of a slow starter previously so that could perhaps tilt it towards Lukaku.

With those opening fixtures. Nah.

A more relevant statistic would be the percentage of players under 21 who have left the professional game after a transfer fee of say 4m+ has been paid for them at some point.

Has he though? How much is "every penny the club generates" and when is that money available? Ashley must have been on one of his drinking marathons when he said that. Or not. That seems intentionally vague.

Sounds good

We want sign Ojo now Murphy is all but done, it was an either/or situation.
