How did you know I picked my team?

[Stoneybatter]

Has anyone picked and confirmed their team yet? I'm wondering if the team can be changed after hitting the confirm button.

Yep changes can be made after confirming

[Stoneybatter]

Great. Thanks

[Stoneybatter]

So I picked a team and confirmed it. I can change it anytime I want by clicking on transfers. I presume by confirming my team i'm committed to the 12.45 kick off time and can't change my players after that kick off. if in future weeks i want to wait till 3pm to see team news i shouldn't click confirm. Does that sound right?

[MADCHESTER UTD]

sorry for the silly question but do the games run from sat 12th sept to and including the Thursday night Europa league games involving spurs and Liverpool? also it's saying team(s) on it. thought you could only enter 1?

[CBN]

Good question and an important subtlety I had forgotten about. Will have to re-read the rules as based on my team it would be helpful to enter prior to 3pm.

Yes those games count. On the right it'll show you the games Matchweek 1. The weekly game includes on those matches. And yes you can only enter 1 this year.

I thought from memory if you had no players playing in the 1st eligible game you could continue to make transfers until 1 of your players kicked off 3pm being the deadline? It was back in July I read this so not sure to be honest!
I'll look through the rules later unless someone wants to look it up?

30k prize fund (10k to winner) do we know payout structure of other prizes or is it £100 each from 2nd to 200th?


The winning team has been picked by the way

Just got off the phone to them. £10,000 is 1st prize this week. Was told 2nd to 6th is 5 grand each. And the remainder is only a peesly £25 down to 200th. Working out those figures the total only comes to £29850. So maybe they are paying out £25 each for 200 players which will bring the total upto £30,000

You are right. Only going by what I was told. I know the £10,000 1st prize is a deffo. He was reading off a email he had to me on the phone. They have totally cock up my payments which was originally I rang up for, so the email the bloke had sounds like a total cock up as well.

- To score maximum possible points you must confirm your 11 players for your single entry into this competition between 09:00:00 on Thursday of each Game Week and kick-off of the first Eligible Match on of that Game week.



- the entry deadline for each Weekly game is 14:59:59 on the Saturday in that Game Week.


Entry deadlines and Game weeks may be different for weeks involving Euro 2016 Qualification Eligible Matches. Details will be available on the Website and App.



Spoke to The Sun just now as I changed from Sun+ to Club member and they don't seem to know the rules on the weekly, nice enough on the phone but obviously ill equipped to answer any questions

So there is an early game on Saturday however as pasted above the website states a 14:59:59 deadline, the agent's I spoke to both had different views whether this was correct or 12.44:59 would be the deadline and were pretty much guided by my understanding of the rules .

So can anyone inform me which is correct?

1) 14:59:59 and you're able to make unlimited changes to your team providing you don't choose any players from the early Chelsea v Everton game?

2) Cock up on website so it will be a 12:44:59 deadline to enter the team?

3) 14:59.59 deadline and you can change any players that haven't played in the early game?

Maybe there are different possibilities too?

As you can see from above posts, I been told this and that, I also asked about the deadline for the weekly. The one I spoke to said he thought it was 12.45 unless no players is playing in the 1st game so therefore you can still pick your team upto 14.59.59, he then said hold the line so he could ask his superviser if this was correct, he then came back and said it was midday. He was confused about this and I was totally confused, my pet dog is confused. Hence why i went and laid down to get rid off the headache.

haven't a clue. why don't they just say "you have to enter by the first kick off of that week, so entries close at 2.59 pm on a sat OR at 12.44pm if there is a early kick off, or a minute before kick off if there is a Friday match" how hard is that? why do they have to complicate what should be simple rules?

with regards to the prize fund, surely it will be (or should be) the amount of DT weeklies we've missed so far + this week's prize fund = the total amount of prize fund for this week. so still keep it to the top 100 but multiply the normal amount of prize per position by 3 or 4 (depending on how many we've missed) ie if we've missed 2 DT weeklies, then that should be added to this weeks jackpot so 1st place should get £6,000 instead of the normal £2k, if you finish 2nd then you get £1,500 instead of £500, If you finish 11th -100th then you should get £75 instead of the normal £25 etc etc

Or maybe just post the prize money onto thier site and breakdown the winnings just for this week. The guy I spoke to was bit confused by the email how the 2nd to 6th would be, however he was adamant that the 1st prize of 10 grand was correct and then down to 200th would be £25 each.

in that case they have changed the payment structure of the game just for this week, as in the rules it's says 1-100 get money, yet now it's saying up to 200th get it.

[Zimmerman]

Haven't we missed two weeks?
So surely the prizes should be tripled?

[the-postman]

regardless of prizes its good that its finally going now

[em9999]

It doesn't matter what the prize money is because by all accounts you have to wait 6 years to get it anyway
