Cornish Pasty has kindly agreed to be league chairman and he will set up the league in due course and send out the password to all of you.

Once he has done that, I would appreciate if you could all get your teams in as quickly as possible please.

You don't have to have made your changes at this stage.

Thanks for organising this again, I am looking forward to this. Interesting starting team this time around too.

Just waiting on Cornish P.

Cheers Lip.

Thought you wanted the other leagues filling first? No bother though league details will be sent out later this evening.

League details pm'ed to all Div 2 managers

Just added my team to the Super League, no changes as yet as I haven't decided whether or not I'm keeping Camara ...

I'm in.

Bacon 'n' eggs'cup'

Nothing received at this end...

hmmm, copy and pasted thelips list-one sec

He put a space in my username... Dixie Dean... so that'll be the reason.

Good luck all.

Hope for next season is not too get relegated again.

I too am in....

Will Razorback beat me this year or will I make it a hat-trick of wins

Good luck to one and all.

Teams in so far.....

Think I'll just concentrate on not getting dragged into a relegation battle this time around (although I'll quietly predict yourself, The Saint & me taking the top three positions at the end of the season (but not necessarily in that order ))...

I'm still kind of hanging out for the possibility of promotional codes like last year but it doesn't seem like they will be forthcoming. Will most likely enter next week. I think this looks like it will be a tough little league to win. Looking forward to the challenge

my teams in

I'm in... although I haven't copied Hansen's team yet. Will work on it later.

Cheers


Rich

Thats shouting in my book From my own point of view i got last seasons tactics in this all wrong. I can quietly predict you lot are playing for two podium spots or my names not Pasty

This lot already in 1 absentee

Looks like 3 missing to me.

Who is missing?

Looks like The Saint, Giggsy and Chaser are still to put their teams in.

Lots of people away at this time of year. Still 3 weeks until the season starts.

I'm waiting at least another week before looking through tff, a few good value picks moving to sunderland.

You have to have Hansen's team. You can make changes later. Sort it out.

He's on the case, thats the main thing

Its no shows that are the problem and I can say i have had the nod from them all

Will get mine in, in the next few days.
