Fantasy Football (EPL)


As some of you would know, I am a fan of Football (Soccer). I know I haven't posted about it until now, but yes, I like football. I follow Arsenal in the English Premier League (EPL) and Melbourne Victory in the A-League. The World Cup is coming up next month in South Africa, and I anticipate many sleepless nights (I should probably apply for annual leave) during the tournament, as the time difference is a killer for us Aussies.

Another aspect of Football which I love is Fantasy Football. For the past few years, I have been playing Fantasy Football in a league with friends. It has been a great way for a bit of friendly competition, and to follow the games in general.

A big part of the fun for me is picking the team name, and kit colours. This last year my team was named T-Rexington Athletic, and we sported some of the most spiffy kits around...


The 2009-10 season has just finished, and I had another solid year (I think I've came 3rd for the past 3 years). During the season, there is alot of friendly banter, as some managers do well (ie: lucky), and others struggle. T-Rex was struggling for most of the season (was as low as tenth), but had a very good 2nd half to gain many positions on the table.


With the 2010-11 season starting in a few months, I'd love to expand the participants in the next league. If you like football, or just like a bit of fun, I'd love for you to join us next year. As we get closer to August, and the league has been setup, I'll post some more details.

It's alot of fun, and I hope you can join. Let me know if you're interested.
