Just a few thoughts:

Do we think the TFF Championship will need its own sub-forum? (How successful do we expect this version of the game to be?)

Any hints and tips on the best players to pick plus has anyone spotted any stand out enablers or OOP players yet?

Also, is there a Championship injury website anywhere? Otherwise we'll need to create a thread on FISO

Will we be wanting a weekly chit chat thread to keep us focussed throughout the season? I'm happy to write one if others are willing to contribute...

I'd say yes to the sub forum, could get a bit confusing otherwise on this site... weekly chit chat thread would be good too :)

I finally got round to having a look at this this morning and I didn't actually know you got a free team in it.


So I've made a team what I need now is for someone to tell me a decent side and what players to have.

Actually read the rules tonight!

Brief summary :

- 40 transfers (thought there may have been more as there are more games played in the Championship)

- Includes FA Cup and end of season play-offs

- All other rules appear to be the same as the Premier League version

There are a lot of weekend followed by mid-week games, teams won't be affected by playing in Europe but Championship teams do enter the EFL cup in the first round. It may be useful to know the televised matches.

Birmingham City season ticket holder.......

Even though this could be counter productive for me! In the spirit of fair play I'd point you all in the direction of our full backs. Keita and Nsue. Not expensive, both love getting forward and whipping the crosses in. Both as guaranteed to play as anyone is in these days of big squads. I've got them in all 3 of my teams and it's really freed up extra cash elsewhere. Proper modern wing backs. Nsue always looking to overlap and get forward, Keita a real dasher. Loves a stepover and trick.

Don't say I didn't tell you!

Keita is only 2.6 and has only 0.4% ownership...

Shame I'm going for a block defence (for ease of management/MOTW chances) and it isn't Birmingham's

Any more tips folks?

With respect, I've seen him play a lot more than you and the spotty oik at telegraph towers who rated him! He remains a top class enabler in my team in this game....

Wasn't meant to be a diss of your pick. Was saying he could be a good, differential, enabler if you are right.

New to this having played FPL for years. last played TFF for the Premier league over 10 years ago.

I know you can hide your team but I'm surprised I haven't seen a single rate My Team post yet, never mind a thread!

My week 1 team
Bialkowski (Ipswich 3.3)
Kone (Sunderland 4.4) - Chester (Villa 4.2) - Dalsgaard (Brentford 2.1)
Pritchard (Norwich 4.9) - Swift (Reading 5.0) - Canos (Brentford 3.3) - Boyd (Burnley 4.6)
Assombalonga (Forest 7.0) - Hogan (Villa 5.5) - Diedhiou (Bristol City 4.7).

1.0 in the bank.

31 points in week 1 mainly from the Bristol City guy with 10.

Full disclosure I'm a Brentford fan and there are 3 ex Bees in there...Maybe a bit biased.

However I feel Dalsgaard is an absolute bargain at 2.1, an attacking right back who got good reviews and got forward a lot on Saturday despite our 1-0 defeat. should probably have been priced the same as Colin (3.6). He is first choice until further notice. Our defence is unlikely to be watertight but he should certainly get a few goals and assists. Similar story with Henry at left back (2.6) who was a star last season.

Canos was injured but will be back soon. Also looks underpriced.

Any other under priced player tips? Feel they did not do their homework on Brentford, maybe other teams too.

Kone and Boyd in my team due to happy memories from FPL.

Didn't know Pritchard was injured, looks like he could be out for a few weeks yet.

Overall leader is on 55 points.

But number of entries at end of Week One = 22,402(!).

Used own single team's position on both Overall and Wooden Spoon rankings
https://fantasyfootball.telegraph.co.uk ... ip/overall
https://fantasyfootball.telegraph.co.uk ... p/overallw
and added them together, subtracting 1:
ie: 20,432 + 6,037 - 1 = 26,468 after Friday's two matches
6,923 + 15,480 - 1 = 22,402 after final fixture on Sunday.
