where are those 2 people we need

i think its obvious that:

sainty will get Lecsitershire

and

Gregers will get sussex lol.

No its not cf, one of us hasn't got their first choice...

It's my girlfriends sisters birthday today so won't be on much.

Sides to be announced on Sunday evening/Monday hopefully

ok mate fair enough

Talk about making an excuse to put off telling CF he hasn't got Essex!

Im at wales vs scotland tomorrow so could get to come back peed to find who i have

however im sure i was the only one who put essex as first choice lol.

I've got tickets to the France game, last week of the 6N! If all goes well and it is a grand slam decider the atmosphere will be awesome in Cardiff! We'll hopefully cruise past Scotland though... (desperately looks for some wood to touch)

I got the tickets through Uni, i'm in newport this weekend so thought why not, tempted to wear a scotland shirt tomorrow although I was looking around to see if on the off chance any shop was still selling an old Lions shirt I could wear instead and blend in with that.

wouldnt suprise me :P

I'm deadly serious about being Essex, I've drove through Chelmsford 4 times!!

i honestly dont care, its a fantasy league....

Sure mate, sure.

lol GG i dont..

like i said it would be nice to get them, but obviously not down to me

Gregers
Surely I should get one out of my three.I mean you asked for only three and said you would try to give one.
i gave you 3 and I still cant get either of those 3.

shanks to be honest, i doubt many of us will get our preferred choice, either way just buy players from the team u wanted lol.

Gregers wrote:How do people feel about pming two choices of teams and we'll try and give everyone one of their choices?

So I gave 3 choices instead of 2 and I still cant get one of my choices FFS.

i dunno im not in charge............lol i thought i might have got my one being the only essex fan, but i probably havent, i gave two choices anyway...

we will just have to wait and see

Everyone might have wanted those 3 though shanky.

Just to echo whats been said, some may have to take a hit, in regard to who they are.

There were a few teams (including my Essex) that were quite high demand.

At the end of the day, odds are that people will be chopping and changing quite a lot so really, it's irrelevant!

I don't care who i get shall be fun to see how this goes when cf blows a gasket over being glamorgan

Anyone else heard the rumour that Greger's girlfriend's sister got Essex as a birthday present?

Afternoon all,

Shanky you do realise that I said "we will try", if you hadn't pmd the three most popular teams to me then Im sure that you'd have got one of the three choices you sent.

At the end of the day this is meant to be a bit of fun and I don't appreciate you saying ffs about something which takes a fair bit of effort on mine (and Saintys) part to run.

brilliant

CF, how well do you know Derbyshire??

oh sainty, your feeble attempts to wind me up, shall not work.

There's a fine line between winding you up and simple banter. Clearly you know not of this line.

what is going to be frustrating is, when we do the auction, im not around much until 4pm most days, so i will miss out completely

Last time it didn't finish till 9....

i bet the rules change, now i have said that though!

There's an Auction?

yup nando, maybe you should look over the IPL, and see how that was run..

Well that seems simple enough certain amount of people put up for bidding then go from there

yes.....we usually give names of players from round the world, who should be in there, and then usually over the process of a week, they get auctioned off...anyone un-sold will get put into another auction that usually occurs halfway through

Basically, we will bracket players, low, medium, high and exclusive for the EPL star players (think Warner, Dhoni etc.) Each bracket will have a fixed amount attached to it where bidding will start.

in the 2nd auction though (supplemetnal auction) it was first come, first serve..

gregers im still happy to be a league runner if ya still need a 3rd one

We'll also be allowing trades to be re-opened at that point too.

we should be allowed to trade all the time IMO

the suspense is killing me

You're in Newport? One of my mates is in uni there which reminds me of his facebook status a couple of week ago..."You know it's cold in Newport when the local girls wear underwear".

Right guys,

I can confirm that team selection for those who have sent through choices will be announced tomorrow...

I can also confirm that the southern teams had the most requests with Somerset having the most by far...

and i will be up by then, hopefully not feeling any effects of today with it either if it were an english win instead of welsh today i know i would definitly be nursing one, but going to watch the welsh was a bit different.
