VPL Mini League (monthly winner & big end of season prizes)

Post by billvega »

Vega Premier League!

I have been running my own mini league for friends for around 15 years now and thought I would offer FISO members the chance to enter it. It's a big money league and costs £100 to enter so this is for serious Dream Teamers only!

Before I go any further you may have trouble trusting someone with a oner fee, but I assure you I am 100% honest and run this league well with constant email updates to all members.

Obviously the monthly prizes and end of season prizes depend on the amount of teams I get. As an example, below is the end of season table from last season with the top 5 winners plus those who won the £100 manager of the month prizes. Yes, I did win last year 8-) obviously the big number is the end of season points tally, smaller number was the monthly points tally for May.

1 REAL VEGA 2420 - 96 £500 (3 monthly wins)

2 Bathsheba FC 2387 - 156 £350 (1 monthly win)

3 Romford royals 2329 - 89 £200 (2 monthly wins)

4 The Olivia Pope 11 2196 - 96 £150

5 District 23 2179 - 94 £100

6 Look At the STRENGTH 2156 - 73

7 Lacazette Sport 2147 - 117

8 Jamrock FC 2121 - 106

9 County Park 2107 - 76

10 Bubbles 2091 - 99

11 Let Em Spin 2051 - 95

12 Spine Chillers 2028 - 110 (2 monthly wins)

13 Parkfield Knights 1994 - 99

14 Class On Grass 1979 - 127

15 LOOKSGOODONPAPER 1954 - 74

16 The legal eagles 1938 - 120

17 Lynda's Boys 1894 - 126

18 Wilson Hotspurs XI 1840 - 49 (1 monthly win)

19 Forest Whitaker Lazy Eye 1839 - 104

20 Goonsta 1665 - 26

21 Jids FC 1660 - 86 (1 monthly win)

22 Top Dier 1653 - 82

23 Dream To The End 5B 1614 - 85


A few people are dropping out this year so that's why I'm offering it out to you guys. You can have as many teams as you want (£100 each)

The beauty of the monthly winner means you will always have a chance of winning your stake back (or at least most of it) even if you are out of a chance of winning a position prize.

Take a look at the winning points tally's, if you scored more than that last year you might fancy your chances!

Any questions please ask. If you want to join, the fee is payable via paypal before the season starts. Please PM me for your interest.

Thanks for reading.

So you won the whole thing and only got £200 for winning (ignoring monthly prizes)?

EDIT: you got £500 for winning (as well as 3 monthly prizes).

Indeed, £500 1st place and £300 for the 3 monthly's = £800 (£700 profit)

I like to have 4 or 5 end of season places if I have 20+ teams, it keeps everyone active in the league fighting for a position.

Not worth it is it.

100 quid to return 400 profit after 9 months ?

I'd rather put a oner on 4/1 double when the new season starts.

Last season the big balls league with a similar entry fee returned nearly 5 grand.

I'm out.

You are over looking the monthly £100 prize. If you won every month last season and got top spot, that is £1500.

I managed top and 3 months which was £700 profit.

The prizes all depend on how many teams enter, if there's less teams than last year, maybe only top 3 get a prize. I weigh it all up when I get confirmed numbers.

A league giving a 5 grand return for £100 entry must have had 50 teams with only coming 1st to win anything. The odds are ridiculously high.

Same camp for me. If I chuck £100 at something I would prefer shit or bust for a big prize. Can see the other perspective though and good luck with your league chief 8-)

Nice idea but think you need interest from about 50 people to make it worthwhile to a lot people - me included. I did the big balls league last year, £200 entry and nearly 5k prize and only 20ish people entered! Good luck with the competition though.

Yes, I can see the 2 mindsets. This all started as a works league, the emphasis is to keep the battle going all season with no one losing intetest.

If only 1st place is available and you have a shit few months it's game over. The monthly win adds to the comfort of knowing that even if you're bottom you can win your money back at the very least.

Too each his own.

I'm also in the all or nothing camp when it comes to a large entry fee.

I'm not running leagues this year which is a shame as although CBN walked away with the big balls league it was nice seeing a potential 5k prize against so few competitors.

Maybe next year when I'm out of my self imposed ban I will start it up again, unless someone else decides to run it :!:

I won this league with 2420 points. Curious to know other peoples final points tally? Perhaps that was a shit total and I'm shafting myself inviting experienced players on here :lol:

Re the league itself, I've had a couple of takers so far. Will post back the confirmed team numbers and prizes when known to see if it interests anyone else.

Obviously, the more entries the bigger the prizes but with bigger prizes the odds of winning a month or end of season spot decrease.

You would be shafting yourself mate (i thought that as soon as i saw the pts totals),i did 6 teams last season & all scored around the 2600/2700 mark....& there's a decent number of people on here that scored higher.

I looked at the points total and smelt a rat unfortunately, I thought it was too good to be true 🤷‍♂️ - sorry for thinking that.

Backlash has to be a 1/20 Fav.....oh no wait a minute 🙊

18 teams in so far.

£100 monthly win

1st £500
2nd £300

Need at least 2 more teams to bump up the end of season prizes and maybe get a 3rd place in.

Any other takers?
