a_pilgrim_soul and me were talking and she came up with the idea for Fantasy Football for the Football World Cup (I still refuse the word soccer. Sorry!) in South Africa this summer. We set up a game where we can play our own league. We're looking for more people to join - the more the merrier.
Copy pasted from Josie as she explained it perfectly:
Even if you know nothing about football don't be afraid to join in, there's even an option to pick players at random. There's no prize for winning other than the ability to gloat over the losers but it'll be a fun way to get involved in the tournament.
All you have to do is register on
this site, select your team and then join our private league - LJ Allstars. The league is password protected. Post here and let us know if you want to enter and the name of your team and I'll PM you the league number and password.
The rules are simple. Select 1 goalkeeper, 4 defenders, 3 midfielders and 3 strikers from all the players attending the world cup. There only catch is that you can only pick one player from each international team.
So join in, you know you want to. :)
