Fantasy Premier League 2020-21

I can start the league again from scratch and ask everyone to re-apply or go through all the people that might be code-scraping- bots. I can do the latter, but it's hard to tell. I reckon seeing what people here think - i'm also fed up with it.

It is annoying having non urbs in it. I guess you could either do a new league and pm code or ask here for any potential bots you're not sure about?
 
This is the thing- stuck between starting afresh and potentially putting out u75 posters who just think ithey're going to be added - and we do have a lot of people who have left the boards - temp or perm - sticking around the league. More thoughts/votes please.
 
Ah, the good old days of the Grimsby Telegraph FF league. 3 points a goal or clean sheet, two for an assist, lose a point for every goal that was more than one conceded
Fucking YES! I remember first hearing about it from another waiter when I was working at Pizza Hut in Victoria Street. He was obsessed to the point of unreason but he got me into it.
 
We don't need to do a fresh team do we? Just start a new league?

I think if the league disappears and people are bothered they will check here to find out what is going on.

Your team is safe - that's tied to your log-in. Can't be touched. Fresh league will get rid of bootleggers. That's what we have to decide between us. Put up with them or just start again and make sure we don't put code in public which is where these chancer-bots get it.

I think that's fair. Hope we get a healthy turnout though.

I'm presently stuck in the dilemma state over this one too, so cannot help with that decision at the moment.
 
Oh they've changed the gameweek deadlines so that they are now 90 minutes before the first kickoff, pretty much eliminating the influence of all the early team news leaks.

Im sort of happy about that I think, was getting annoying feeling like I had to check for early team news because everybody else would.

Yes, plus I dont remember any significant gains from me trying to be a smartarse with such info last season. Moments of smugness that didnt lead to much by the time the weeks totals were in.
 
But - no disrespect - nobody knows you on here. How did you find the U75 league in the first place? You know another poster or something?
Reasonable question. I think but not a 100% sure. It was on one of the YidArmy sites I frequent. I kept getting into rows with boneheads and being accused of spouting that Lefty Urban Forum bollox. So I googled Urban forum and here I am. I would have to look at the FPL site to remember my last names. But year before last I was top of the league for a good while in the H2Hleague. I love that game. Londoner by birth last 35 years lived in Cork Ireland.
 
There seem to be two teams managed by 'Andile Gwala' in the U75 league already. Since they both have graphics in the middle of their names is it reasonable to assume they are the same person and do something about it?

Now they've changed one of their names.
 
The Manchester games not happening in week 1 significantly reduces the chances that I will see a wide array of interesting teams, there will be so many teams with a template core and a bunch of random filler at the start.
 
So, teams not playing GW1:
  • Man City
  • Man Utd
  • Burnley
  • Aston Villa
Some tricky choices ahead, given that any players not in squads for GW1 will likely see their prices rise significantly in GW2 as people rush to bring them in. Would also want more than just one player from all 4 teams in my squad over the first two GWs!
 
I'm just going to bench my Manchester players I think. Its only one gameweek, and it will cost more in transfers to bring them in for week 2
 
In a way Burnley's the real bugger, as they've got the sort of 'affordable alternative' players I'd be looking to fill the gaps with while the Manchester players sit on the bench.
