Sun
DreamTeam 2004/05 Sun
DreamTeam attracted just over 400,000 entries last year and, having
upped the prizes and improved their website, it will be interesting
to see if they can break the 500,000 barrier this year. The
Sun keep it simple by asking you to pick 11 players with a £40m budget.
It costs £5 per team and there are £300,000 of prizes including
a massive £125,000 1st prize. There are just 2 transfer windows
during the year (max 3 players swapped) at cost of £1.50 per window.
The Sun's scoring system includes their own player match-performance
rating and star man points (based on The Sun's reporters
viewing of matches) which provides an 'arguable' twist to the
game. To

Guardian
Fantasy Football Chairman The
Guardian's Fantasy Football Chairman is a brand new game run by Fantasy
League Ltd and promoted in the Guardian. The game is a stockmarket-type
game in that the value of your players rise or decrease
based on their real-life performance and demand from other Chairmen.
The Chairman with the highest valued team at the end of the
season wins the £10,000 first prize. You have up to 100 transfers
for the season and it costs just £5 to play. If you fancy yourself
as a 'wheeler dealer' then this is the game for you because how
you do in the transfer market will determine how far up the leaderboard
you rise. FISO

Fantasy Football returns with its popular free to play game. Yahoo!'s
game is a stockmarket-type game where player values fluctuate
depending on performance and demand. There are no prizes (well
it is free to play!). Scoring changes this year: Goals
are worth 5 (plus 3 for a shot on target) instead of 8 and defenders
get a 5 point clean sheet bonus. FISO's

Fantasy Football The
Premier League's official game is another stockmarket type game where
player values fluctuate. The game is still free to play and offers
you the chance to win an all expenses paid VIP trip to a Barclays
Premiership match featuring a team of your choice. Unlimited
transfers make dipping into the transfer market very tempting
but don't over do it because excessive transfers will cost you
points. Click
