ok, that seems to be about right!

nice and easy start to the season - do remember that there is no immunity to bonus' this week

for anyone wanting a reminder, the rules are here - but do feel free to ask any questions.

The most important part of this game is that we all play every week, if you think you're going to struggle certain weeks - LET ME KNOW!!!! I'll try my best to help you out one way or another.


Deadline for entry, as always, is midnight on Friday.

teams to be E-mailed (address on the email button below any of my posts) or PM'd to me, and please post on here once you're in.

Welcome back FISODAS, goodbye Friday nights!


GAME ON!!!!!!!!!

PM's sent!

I know what you mean Barry, and I for one appreciate the commitment!

I'm happy taking one for the team mate, means you get to play and you get your night back - you've done your time!

not sure I'll still be as keen come season 20

PM recieved, mulling started & thanks extended

I'll second that.

good stuff guys - lost my FF mojo but this is when it comes back !

first team received already (not checked my emails so there may be more!)

recieved a few questions via pm that are valid enough to mention on here.

You can use bonus' this week, the only difference in week 1 is that there are no immunities to the bonus' - every other week you cannot use a bonus against a league leader.

the other common question I get - can I pick a striker from the same team as my defence? - Yes you can!

team pm'ed early as I was worried i'd forget about it if I left it any later being the first week

good luck kizkiz

thanks for all the effort bazza

Team e-mailed. Thanks for taking the mantle again Barry.

Team in early

You too
Team is in

Got my first ever team in - hope no mistakes.

Not sure I stand much chance week1, playing against the creator! Goodluck Jester - go easy on me!

The best thing about this game is when new players give it a go and find out how good it is, so after this week - good luck!

I can't take credit for it's invention however. It was brought to FISO by Shrews, who in turn discovered it in a local paper I think?


One tip - never enter before all midweek games have been played...!!

Team In by email - but forgot to put my fiso name on it - too excited at getting at CherylHoney - its been so long!

I'm sure there's a joke in there somewhere

team sent.

12 in so far (names bolded in fisodas fixtures post above)

Team In.

Good luck all for this season and thanks Bazza for getting us all back in the regular week-end routine.... must not forget Fisodas team before Friday midnight.... must not forget Fisodas team before Friday midnight.

After a shocking season in the world of FF FISODAS is all I have left to cling onto. Adlad please go easy on me as I'm liable to do something silly if I get beaten

Team in, and great to be be back in the hands of bazza
