Do I need to do anything?

I also enjoyed the other game "I know the score"

Will this be set up also?

Do you have to pick a team before joining a league I want to wait so transfers and injures are sorted out ?. If so can you pick a team before the deadline submit it then change it without taking points off ?.

It 's nice balanced team. Maybe too much money spent on defenders.

If Fabregas leaves Wilshere should be a good buy. Cabaye could be a differential, not many have him or have heard of him. Silva I think is going to be immense for City this year.

I like Suarez and Odemwingie but would wait til the third gameweek. Suarez is still at the Copa America and may not play the first couple of games and Odemwingie opens up against United then Chelsea. West Brom's schedule gets much better after the first couple of games.

Finally why aren't you playing in our league, looks like you know your stuff.

^ I think that midfield will get you a lot of points. Baines will contribute as well. Good goal-scoring attack too. I like it.

Mine is:

Al-Habsi
Dunne Kompany Samba Walker
Nani Y. Toure Wilshere Lee
Rodallega Hernandez​

Given Odemwingie Mulumbu O'Shea

I can only access Internet via iPhone right now and it only loads the left half of the page so cant pick a team. Any way around this?

Kompany was only 6.0, bargain really, and Walker 5.5

You're right about the strikers though, I did notice WBA's opening fixtures.

I might join this one.

Quick question. Would you sacrifice Darren Bent for someone like Odewingie/Gyan in order to upgrade Shawcross and Warnock with Huth and Kompany?

Edit: Just realised that looks like I'm asking myself :lol:

Why not? Get involved. Nice team, too.

You have to pick a team before joining a league.
Transfers are unlimited until August 13.
Nobody can see your team until it starts anyway.

Similar problem on Blackberry. Would like to know if anyone has cracked it...

Still no code ??
Chill, Winston!

Are you in that much of a hurry for it?! Only the league admin has access to the code (unless he passes it on) and he'll send it round once he sees these requests.

:rolleyes: i already sent it to you last night!

anyway you have not followed my instructions as per the OP - you need to post your team name, same goes for any other new players.

Also I usually send the code in batches of 5 to save me time so noobs should be patient.

I like the new look to the site, very smart.

I've picked a team but doubt it'll stay the same, still have 1.5m in the bank too which is odd.

I'll send you the code to pass out as well as I may not be online much next couple of weeks
