Metro World Cup Fantasy Football League

**Dice Man** · 29th May 2006, 08:41 PM

Is anybody else playing metro.co.uk's World Cup fantasy football competition? You get 100 million pounds to spend on 12 players (one reserve), and you get points for them playing for an amount of time, scoring (depending on where they play), assists, clean sheets, saving shots, saving penalties, missing penalties (negative), and cards. You can make infinite transfers before the World Cup starts (I've already had to lose Rooney and Huth), and then you can make up to four between each group phase match. There's prizes too, £20,000 in total. You can even keep a watch on players you're interested in but didn't pick to see what kind of points they picked up and whether you should get them. If anyone wants to play I can make a gambling.co.uk league and put the code on here for anyone to join.

All the details are here:

thanks for the info, I think a league between our members would be interesting, see if there are more people wanting to get involved and take it from there.

Okay I've made our league, which is here:

http://fantasyfootball.metro.co.uk/M/table.mc?id=18040

The code you need to join is 101944-18040 which you should be able to copy and paste in. I think you need to make a team before you join a league, but you can change it as many times as you like before the first game kicks off anyway.

Here we can have a list of the teams and who they belong to. You can't see other people's teams before the first game, which makes sense really.

Dice Man= Belarus B Team

I would put these at the top of the thread but for some reason I can't edit my posts here?
