i've got Dugarry up front, i want to chose Mutu as well but he's not added
it would be great if it was more than the premiership but it would be near impossible for them to keep it accurately updated each week with all those players.

tip:
some teams may play 2 matches a week so if you pick players who are playing 2 matches then you'll usually get better points :)

Done it, took me five mins or so...you're all going doooown! :-)
Couple of points, how come some decent players are ridiculously cheap, and also I presume now I've chosen my team I don't have to do anything else? Also, how do we view the scores once it starts?

best thing to do is change your team each week, make sure you pick players that are playing that week.
points are usually updated between 24 and 48 hours after the matches.

villa = crap
therefore villa players = crap :)
i'm a Birmingham fan... i do feel sorry for villa fans though, in one season we've managed to become a better team than Villa who have been in the premiership for ages.

"how come some decent players are ridiculously cheap,"
i think players values are taken from there value at the end of last season so if they didn't do very well at the end of the season or didn't play much they would probably have a low rating. If your refering to new players, i think new players start at a set value... i think.
I've got the Chelsea striker Mutu in my team now for a decent price. He best play!

deadline for picking players for this week is GMT 11:59 tonight.
we have 9 teams now which isn't bad, if you want to sign up best do it now because if you sign up after today you'd be playing catch up.
Good luck.... you'll need it :)
