Post by SamD »

TFFCH: Telegraph Championship 2009-10 game

Initial notes:

- Terms & Conditions are drafted within main TFF Premier League game:
http://fantasyfootball.telegraph.co.uk/ ... onditions/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

- no longer free to play; team costs £4
(but £8 provides one entry in TFF & TFFCH; £15 pays for a team in TFF, TFFCH & TFFO)

- no mention of a fantasy game this year for lower divisions: League One & League Two

- TFFCH is shown as running from Sat 15 August 2009 to Sat 22 May 2010 (the Wembley play-off final)
note: opening league fixture is on Fri 7 Aug, so matches before 15 Aug do not count for scoring purposes

- select 11 players within £30m budget in any of these GK-DEF-MID-STK formations:
1-4-3-3; 1-4-4-2; 1-3-5-2 or 1-4-5-1

- 40 transfers available once again

- superleague option but no prize


Prizes:

- Overall: 1st = £10,000; 2nd = £1,000; 3rd to 6th = £500
(but, confusingly, £100 is also shown for 4th to 10th place)

- Manager of the Month: eight awards of £100

- Manager of the Week: £50 each time

Thanks for the info Sam, I'm a 'not sure' on the paying to play model. But then if that puts people off then perhaps that prize is quite a good incentive.

Around 29,000(?) people entered last year, so the odds of winning the £10,000 are probably higher (if still remarkably small) than the £50k in TFF premiership with 250,000 entries.

I think this will be a case of swings and roundabouts. Undoubtedly some will enter more teams now it's not just one per manager while others won't play as it's not free to enter. I've opted for the TFF/TFFCH/TFFO season ticket to start with as it's effectively a £1 discount on TFF and TFFO with the TFFCH thrown in for free.

6.4 Managers of valid team selections that give an email address will receive team confirmation by electronic mail but should be aware that some ISP's and central servers have 'fire walls' or other blocking software, which do not allow distribution of game related communications.

An individual Manager may win a Manager of the Week prize on no more than one occasion during the Season, regardless of the number of teams entered by that individual Manager.

Additional Prizes: Golden Boot

nice one Sam

You would have thought in the delay in releasing this until today, that they would have updated some of the player lists.

They still have Jason Scotland in the game even though he moved to wigan last week, and they even include him in the pics and blurb on the strikers page :)

Start times

Post by SamD »

Although the Championship season commences on Friday 7 August, the TFFCH entry deadline is 15:00 on Sat 15 Aug.

So that's 2+ hours to fine-tune TFFCH XI after Premier League season (and main TFF game) begins at 12:45 that Saturday.

Unless other league matches are rearranged, of course.

Just to note there is a small error that when you get your team confirmed by email it says 'PLEASE NOTE: Your team will begin scoring points from 15:00, Saturday August 08, 2009'. Hopefully that will be corrected soon.

No points for assists? Team formation?
In the Scoring Points rules there is nothing listed for assists. Last year it was +3 points (like the Premiership scoring) This year there is nothing.
So why have in the player profile last years stats that include assists and points that include assists eg Stephen Hunt 17 assists and a comment 'most have in your team'. Not to have assists makes team formation of 4-3-3 the best option?
ie more defenders for clean sheets and strikers for goals???

Its unclear Phil. The points section in the T's and C's doesn't mention assists, but then there is the generic definitions section that includes assists and then tie break that also mentions assists. I think we need to contact them.

Query sent using the TFFCH contact us option.

No assist

Post by SamD »

Would bet there's no assist points in the Championship game. This'll make it simpler and faster for game administrators to calculate and publish match and leaderboard scores.

The TFFCH Conditions paragraph that currently conflicts with this is lifted, in the main, from the main TFF PL game.
It'll no doubt be modified shortly (in the same way that other teething differences have been addressed).

I expect you to be right Sam - and I think this means that Goals are the main thing to aim for, suggesting that 4-3-3 or 3-5-2 may be the best formations in this game as a result.

If it is the case that assists don't count then the pricing structure for midfielders is completely wrong - who would shell out for Stephen Hunt if you're not going to get the benefit of his assists? Surely it would also be the first Telegraph game not to include assists...my money's on a mistake - they are very prone to them...

The Telegraph used to run a championship (second tier) game until a few seasons ago and that definitely didn't have either assists or KCs. It was then dropped for a season or two before the free version appeared last season, with assists. I hope it does have assists, but it wouldn't be a complete surprise if it didn't. Remember, last season was run by a different company, this time it's back to the long standing provider from before last season.

Player List, Fixtures, etc
If anyone is interested, I've started setting up pages on my site for this game. There is a player list along the same lines as the main TFF game. I've also set up the fixture grid for the new season. The FA seem to be completely re-designing their site, so the links to the suspension lists no longer work.

Dear Mr Day

Thank you for your recent correspondence.

Assists do count in the Championship game.

Kind regards

No worries Sam! I hope they change the TFFCH front page now to reflect their statement, otherwise more 'casual' players may be misled, as this isn't reflected in the points scoring section.

Obviously difficult to gauge this properly before the beginning of the season but seems to me there are potentially quite a few decent value palyers in the game. I notice Roman Bednar has been picked by about 10 per cent of players. At the moment he's not even allowed to train with his team mates!

Joe "I love my boyhood club so much that I'm handing in a transfer request 3 days before the start of the season like an absolute C**T" Mattock will probably be at West Brom within a week, where he'll be a bargain at 1.7mill if he plays.

12pts so far in the new Championship game. 8-) Couldn't make the transfers I wanted to before the match though, spent 15minutes on the site and my team wouldn't load after vigorously refreshing. sort it out TFF, there can't have been that many people on it. :roll:

Yes, TFFCH site seemed inaccessible for an hour tonight.

But good news is that this version of Championship game will begin scoring next Sat, 15 August.

So it's not too late to join TFFCH FISO £12 prize league...

:shock:

So they're missing out a weeks of football, said it nowhere bar the terms and conditions so i was concerned about the team for tonight, ffs. :roll: if TFF ran a real life league, would they just miss out the first set of fixtures just to save the effort and to start at the same time as the Premiership?
