Ladies and Gentlemen, the Divisional Championships will be making a return for the forthcoming season.

The competition will be run similar to last year's, the same basic format with a few tweaks. Last season's game can be viewed here for those new to FPL or the side-games.


One change is that the game will be sign-up only. Anyone with an FPL team can enter, but you must state your wish to play in this thread (see instructions in red, below).

The other big change will be playoffs. I will take comments below as to whether you want to see playoffs return this season at all, or just have straight promotion/relegation. If they do return, rather than last year's system, they will take place as a head-to-head match over one gameweek between phases (so that teams not involved in playoffs will have a rest week).


Each phase will be 4-5 weeks, and there will be 6-7 phases in the season. Also I expect the divisions will be a similar size to last season. However I plan on having four divisions this season compared to six last year, to give low starters a better chance, but that will depend on the number of entrants I get.

Similar to last year, there will also probably be a pre-qualifying stage over the first 4-5 gameweeks to help determine where you start, which will also largely be influenced by where you finished last season.


Details have not been decided and will only be published nearer the start of the season, for two reasons:

(a) because I welcome further suggestions on the format and ideas for changes/new features.
(b) because I would like an idea of numbers who want to sign up. Which is why I'm starting this thread so early...


If you wish to take part, please say so clearly below, and give your team name (please do this even if you've already said on another thread, or if you have a link in your www, it will make it easier for me to set up my spreadsheet).

Please also feel free to ask any questions, or leave comments/suggestions.



Note: If for whatever reason your team is not in the main FISO League, you may still take part, but you must provide me with a link to your team (either via the www button, in a post on this thread, or by PM).

I thought you weren't going to play any side-games this year Dixie? :wink:


I have to say the (revamped) playoffs are likely to go ahead, unless a majority of people express a preference for their complete scrapping.

If you don't have play-offs it will be just like entering any other league... so I wouldn't have to worry about it. :wink:

I like the idea of the play-off in the phase breaks, and less leagues, too. Entry only is also good as it keeps the interest rate higher - just like the Bank of England. :lol:

That, and my amount of work lower! :lol:


Dixie - should I take it that your taking part is entirely conditional on the playoff decision?

Sod it... I'm in... it's the best side-game anyway... 8-)

I would prefer straight promotion/relegation though but if everyone wants it I'm not in any position to stand in your way... :wink:
