This thread is intended as a general interest/team news/recruitment thread so last years main thread doesn't get too much action and some semblence of order can be maintained :wink:

Threads that will no doubt follow are probably:-
1. Official Game thread.
2. Captains final declaration thread.

Please use THIS thread, for now anyway, to

a. Declare Teams intending to take part - or not if a Team is disbanding.

b. Post notices of any spare places you wish to fill.

c. Announce your wish to be part of a team if you're a noob or an existing player whose team is not being reformed.


This is so we can get an idea of numbers etc. Ideally we get 36 teams as last year - and 36 is the maximum.

Captains (or their subs) can you confirm that you will be reforming/disbanding your teams so we know how many new teams can be formed etc. (There will, as mentioned, be a Captain's declaration thread to list your teams details/members later on - that is so it's easier for me to collate the info without having to trawl for it).

... or any other queries.

Cheers

Time is short so ...

ps. To anyone not familiar with how the H2H works, :shock: :wink:, have a look at last years thread
2010/11 5AS H2H thread

and also the 5AS rules on team formation to which the H2H is an affiliate (think the FA and FIFA sort of thing)
FISO Five-A-Side Association Rules

I've come to the conclusion I'm going to stick with FPL this season so I'm available for a team should anyone want me.

Well done RomynPG for getting the 5AS off the ground so soon after the later than usual launch of FPL's 2011-12 game - it comes as a relief to many of us to see that you're taking the reins again,after initial concern we might not have a 5AS game this season 8-)

The Red Arrows will most certainly be returning with our aerial displays which so thrilled the crowds again last season :D

We have no vacancies this season; 4 of the team are already back in full training,with the 5th competing in the Copa America Cup Final,so he'll be late arriving back.

Apologies for announcing Tiger Woods/Steve Williams-esque, but after many fruitful years with the Zombies including a Championship title, I will be pulling out of the Zombies this year as I'll be giving FPL a miss this season.

I wish my bloody companions a hugely succesful 2011/12 and I'm sure they will recruit a suitable blood-thirsty replacement who can adopt my role of 'anchor man'. It's with a heavy heart I have to post this but stay dead Zombie friends :cry:

Looks like the Zombies could be recruiting!

Phantomscythe will no doubt be drawing up a shortlist.....

You may want to consider a season long loan for someone as I'm reducing my FF this year with the hope that I may be back in full swing next season :wink:

Look at his location, the first step on the road to recovery is admitting you have a problem. Well done.

The Killer Bees will be looking forward to retaining their title from those Fat Pandas this season.
I think we have one spot available, so we'll be taking applications from dedicated managers only.

Let's hope so, the rest of us are in so that's a great start. Nice and keen too, our 'slowest' member came in at 1483.

I'm wondering if The Ledge's "year off" comment is just a thinly-veiled attempt to better his contract. ;) What would it take to convince you to change your mind...?

Gutted. Sorry you won't be with us this season. You can leave with your head held high with a champions medal round your neck :). We shall masacre all those in our path in your name, and hopefully we'll see you back in FPL-land someday soon!

The Zombies will indeed be back in action after a return to good form last season. I'll get started on recruiting a new Zombie next week :twisted:.

Thanks for getting this up and running again Romyn, always appreciated!

FS Record: TFF not too bad at all... FPL could do better
I'm available to join a team, having had my first proper go at FPL (with the aid of FISO) last year.

After a slow start (and steep learning curve), I finished on 2,070 points, 24,219th place... hoping (of course) to do better this year. Ended up winning my works league (just). Finished 163rd in the FISO Forum and 6th in the FISO Virgins. And I actually won some money - came second in the FISO TFF/FPL Combo... but that was entirely due to my TFF team, not the FPL one.

Any offers?

I was a Campeoe last season, but I am not too sure they are reforming...

So please, if you fancy a steady FPL player in your team...then I'm your man!

I have newly registered with FPL, (new email address) so appear to of lost all my playing history :evil:

The Cheeky Monkeys shall be returning this season.

I will be captain again, and I'm just waiting for confirmations for the final team lineup.

This year will we be getting serious.

I've only ever played for the blood-soaked shirt DrB, I'm needing a year off to spend more time with the family - you know how it is :wink: I'll be following your results throughout the season though - good luck :D
