As with all of The Rounded Keeper’s pub games we’re aiming for more of a Cheers-type local vibe, ‘where everybody knows your name’; than League of Gentlemen’s ‘local pub for local people’. Any FPL Player is welcome to spend some time in The Rounded Keeper, buy a few drinks, get to know us all and be invited to join the League.
But if you pop in on a stag do, seduce any of the bar staff, break their heart and don’t visit again we may have to introduce you to the door staff.
Details
- This is a free to enter FPL League run primarily for regular* contributors to The Rounded Keeper and FISO FPL pages.
- It is a private league and joining details will be shared by PM (but see below under 'Sign Up').
- all entrants will compete in a Rounded Keeper Cup in the second half of the season
- Entry will be promoted in The Rounded Keeper up to the start of the season. Newer regulars can still request joining details during the first few weeks of the season by posting here. Thereafter admission shouldn’t be assumed. The title, ‘Landlord’, should really go to someone who’s stayed for a few lock ins and knows how to manage the staff.
- Discussion, any bragging rights and drowning of sorrows will be in The Rounded Keeper. This thread is just for sign up and any other league admin
- Regular*: What regular means is open to interpretation. It’ll be less strict than the previous Members League requirement to post every month. More likely there’ll be an occasional post in The Rounded Keeper asking regulars if they know and have ever been bought a pint by entrants who haven’t or don’t contribute.
- If we need to formalise this by asking for, say, three others to support the league administrator to formally consider additions and exclusions, we will.
- It’d be a better outcome to get more people to join in discussion than create unnecessary exclusivity. But the main FISO League exists for all-comers and that might be a better home for people who don’t wish to join in.
- Discussion around the initial Rounded Keeper league rules and principles can be found on this thread: The Rounded Keeper League?
- I’d rather avoid a situation where someone feels aggrieved for being removed. If it does happen PM me (Talkie Toaster) with a brief request to discuss. If the primary criteria for inclusion is regular contribution I am hoping this will not be an issue. But other matters such as breaking Forum rules could be a factor. Ultimately the administrator’s decision will be final. Depending on the issue(s) it will by then have been discussed with Mods and/or other regulars.
OK, that’s enough small print above the door. Who’s joining? Whose round is it? And who’s coming back in GW33 for the Rounded Keeper Cup?

A small change to previous seasons is that I will be auto-renewing the league, so if you were in last season, then your team should automatically appear in the league without needing to send joining codes via PM. However, you will still need to register your team below
Gretchen will be checking all the names in the league against those in her little black book and if she can't find you in it, you will be removed by our doormen
For newer regulars or those that didn't enter last year, joining codes for the League will be shared by PM as before.
Thanks
TT
