Usually we charge $20.00 to enter, but Traffic Force has stepped up to cover these fees and up the prize money to $1k (1st $500, 2nd $300, 3rd $200). If we can get to 50 players, they will increase the pot, so please spread the word!

We are going on 4 years and it has been a lot of fun!

Thank you Traffic Force!

It's serious this year, I recruited a team of experts to help me win, I stole them from Ashley lol. It's our pleasure, everyone knows how much I love my Football, anything to bring some of that fun to GFY.

Sounds fun, I'm in.

I already have an account there and your link is to create and account, what is the link to join your league?

Welcome to the league Rob!

I am in again this Year. Team is Picked and ready to go.
Can't wait for next week!! Tick Tock...

Thank you Traffic Force :)

Thanks, still can't figure out where to go to join your league or put that code in.

Here we go again ! :thumbsup

Looking forward to this one. And hopefully not make the same mistakes that i did last season. Had a terrible start which i never seemed to recover from. Let's see how this one goes.

Can't be any worse anyway that's for sure... :1orglaugh

I figured it out, you gotta pick a team first then join a league. Wierd but ok.

Glad you figured it out Rob and yes, it is a bit weird. Welcome back Scott McD!

This year should be pretty damn good, some big big signings so far and many more to come I feel.

Really looking forward to this season and thanks for your continued support Ross!

I'm in.
thanks Poppy/Traffic Force.

My pleasure my friend. We'll be doing the Champions League one again as well, that was pretty good last year so Scott will probably fire that up again.

Awesome!
I am in like Louis van Gaal!

Pornopat and Manfap, welcome to the league!

I better not get addicted, I waste enough time daily on other stuff already.:)

I need to send you that waiver to sign :1orglaugh

Sign up people! Kick off is this Sat, so get your teams in by Friday night to be safe.

I'm not putting my team in until last minute, I think there will be some big deals this week, Man United are on a charge... if they get Di Maria, Hummels and Reus, they are shaping up nicely.

I hope Liverpool aren't out of the running for Reus!

Liverpool are stacking in hopes of not running out of steam like they did last year. My opinion is they have already signed too many players to get them to gel in time, they seem to want to add more, maybe as many as 4 more, it's excessive.

I hope they make it work but if you look at Tottenham last year, they spent a lot trying to replace Bale and half of the big signings were junk. Liverpool have made some premiership experienced players tho which will be good, Spurs signed everyone from other leagues which could be the big difference.

Should be an exciting season... Arsenal destroyed City yesterday, albeit a bit of a weaker side, Chelsea made some good signings, Liverpool are strong even without Suarez and United have a great coach as well as look to be buying Di Maria and maybe a few more big names. All in all this could be one of the best seasons in the BPL yet.

I've also held off submitting my team because i'm expecting some BIG transfers in the next few days or so.

Pity the transfer window stays open till the end of the month though so the season will be well under way by that point...

this is cool!!!

Nice one Ross thats an EPIC prize fund, if you need some help with your team let me know :upsidedow

Don't forget you can all submit your teams now... then up until the first deadline you have unlimited transfers so you can play around with lineups up until the last second to make sure you have everything in place.

Also every week you can make a transfer so up until the window closes there is time to bring in those deadline day players that have yet to be announced.

Good luck to all :thumbsup

Do you guys have an affiliate program. I have sports and video game review websites. Please let me know as I am currently putting together a fantasy football campain.

Ah shit ok lol. Never knew that. I'll get my team sorted out in the morning then... :)

Join up djroof!

Great insight and advice Ashley!

Affiliate program for our league or are you asking about Traffic Force?

I was talking about the league. I thought it was similar to Fanduel, where you can promote the fantasy league to real money players in the U.S.

I of course dont have all the answers but if anyone has any questions no matter how small post them in this thread and ill answer as best i can. its a long season but getting off to a good start is always important for keeping the interest level over the 38 game weeks.

in :thumbsup

I had some questions but then I just copied your team so I'm all good :winkwink:

All set... Let's play some 'Soccer'

Team done!

Bring on the next relegation battle... :pimp

joining :thumbsup you have alerts to play? i forget sumtimes

ahh ic. No, this is just for fun and free, but Traffic Force has been generous to step up and sponsor it.

lool ok so this year i am aiming to see how bad i can do so copy at your own risk :upsidedow

You have to remember. That said, one Friday night I fell asleep at a cabin we were staying at and woke up at 7am EST. I drove about 2mi to find a wifi and make my change with 2min to spare. Go figure, I would've done better had I not fucked w/ my lineup...lol. :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

bring it on, just joined & can't wait

Nice Adam! Glad to have you in the league my man. Please invite others. Get their teams in tonight to be safe, as kick off is manana!!!

And it begins! :pimp I'm looking forward to another battle with you Ashley :)

I'll try my best to defend the crown!

It took me forever to enter a team this week. I think this is the most difficult season yet to pick a competitive team with £100 million, I hate this part because I spend ages deciding on a team and then by Gameweek 2 I've changed my entire team! :1orglaugh

A big thanks to Ross and Traffic Force, that's really generous of you guys to make it free to enter this year! And of coarse Poppy for organising the whole thing again, it certainly makes the football season a lot more interesting!

35 competitors and counting... This is gonna be fun :thumbsup

Big kick off tomorrow. Man U getting things under way with the early kick off. No Man U players in my squad this time after the farce of last season.

No doubt that means they will be flying this year... :1orglaugh:helpme

I am expecting them to drop some cash on new players very soon! :thumbsup

Up to 36 players! C'mon people, if we can get to 50 players, Ross said the prize money may increase :)

I hope everyone got their teams done in time as GameWeek 1 is now closed so its GAME ON!

1st - Chelsea have the midfield engine they have been looking for in Fabregas and a forward that might actual score goals this year in Costa. Once they have their WCup stars up to match fitness chelsea are going to be a very strong outfit this year.

2nd - ManCity have a terrible run of fixtures to start the campaign with plenty of players still not ready for the season opener. Will Dzeko and Jovetic be able to score enough goals... and at 11m you would have to have been mad to go with Yaya and most are looking at Silva to shine this season.

3rd - Arsenal have made great signings in Sanchez and when Walcott's back the pace in that front line is going to be deadly. Still weak defensively as they need a new world class CB and Mert and Ozil still not ready for playing time after the WCup win. Ramsey looks to be starting this season as he finished the last!

4th - ManU start us of with the first game of the season. Their defence looks ragged to say the least especially now that shaw is injured. Mata and Rooney to star today or maybe some went with the dirt cheap Ashley Young at 5.5m!

5th - Liverpool with no Suarez will be interesting to see. Sterling looks to be the pick of the bunch with Countino having a great pre season. Like City they have an epic first few games after Southampton. Tomorrows game will be fun as Southampton sold all their best players to Liverpool. it will be interesting to see how liverpool handle life post Suarez maybe Sturridge will get his chance to to shine now and continue with his terrible goal celebration.

This is how i feel it will finish up come game week 38. Chelsea are going to be strong throughout Fabregas is epic and Costa has skills. City may struggle this year and Arsenal could even beat them to 2nd place. ManU finding it tough with no midfield magic but having no EU football will help them over the season. Liverpool i'm not convinced yet as they will have to contented for the first time in years with CLeague fixtures mid week.

And here we go!!!

Ashley, I went with dirt cheap Ashley last minute! So many players to choose from.

Oh dear. Man U start as they finished last season...

Ugh and I sat Sigurdson this week.

two fails in the first week Poppy not a great start ;)
