Welcome everyone to my fantasy football league for football manager. I couldn't remember the real name for this type of game so made one up. The rules are simple, each player picks a team and then I will put us all in a random generator to determine the order of play of which we pick our teams. This means people like Messi could be playing for Stoke and so on. To make it fair on the players who get picked 20th, the next round the picks will get reversed so the person who picked last goes first in round. The way I am going to have people pick is by PM or Email whichever is easier. To save me getting a millions people saying Messi in their PMs the way I want people to pick their squad is like so:

Burnley:
1.Messi

Aston Villa
1.Messi
2.Ronaldo

Chelsea
1. Messi
2. Ronaldo
3. Neuer


So in this case Burnley got drawn out 1st. They picked Messi as their first choice. Next up was Aston Villa who wanted to pick Messi but as Burnley already chose him they got their second choice. Same with Chelsea who got 3 picks as 2 teams went before them but as they had Neuer as their 2nd pick and nobody had chosen him then they get the player.

At the end of each round of picking I will release the squads so you can see who has been picked and where you need to pick some players.

Premier League Rules for registration
Maximum Squad size of 25 players
8 Players trained in England for 3 years before 21st Birthday

I am going to say you need to have at least 5 English people in the squad
At least 2 players over the age of 31
At least 3 players under 21

Failure to comply with these rules will mean that I have the right to take away one player from your squad and replace them with someone who fits into the rules.

At the end of the picking once everyone has their squads I will then either SIM the game or if someone who has the in game editor wants to help me out we could turn this into a chairman game but we will see how it goes for now.

Yeah thats fine mate. Basically when I have 20 players I will release a list in how many picks people get so if you are 20th u have to send me a pm with 20 players on that list. If you are 2nd on the list you get two picks because the person who picks first may pick the player you want so you get another choice. It is easier to do it that way instead of you picking a player sending me a PM then for me to say no sorry hes already been picked.

That's your opinion, there's only one team I'll never ever be and that's Galatasaray even if it's a fun game as I hate them. I dislike Man Utd but my hate isn't as strong for them as it is for Galatasaray so I can just bare being Man Utd
