Fantasy Soccer Football: Just came across this version, which is free, includes the SPL and offers prize money. Thought I would run it up the flagpole and see if any chuffer salutes.

I'm perfectly happy with the Premier League site. (Yes, I'm a curmudgeonly old stick in the mud). What's the point of including the SPL?

Prize money!!! Seriously, seems okay but not that much of an advantage, since none of us are Old Firm supporters. I don't see this new site have the captain/double points feature though the four transfers per month instead of one a week is interesting.

Squealy old chap, the Premier League site was new last year, prior to that we were all happy with Yahoo. I think the only point of including the SPL is that it's a game run by a Scottish paper.

I'm for throwing the baby out with the bathwater. After all, it's a year old now and what fucking use is that?

I say stay with EPL.com version. We got 30+ people playing last year. I mean, we can't even agree to play two divisions in the same league (sorry for bringing that up again) and now we want to switch again. I'm getting to old for this. Really, the old bones ain't what they used to be. I'm really happy with the EPL. And if yahoo continues the trend it set two years ago, and carried on so valiantly last season, I won't be using them this coming season. btw, speaking of yahoo, I have a little announcement I'll be making on the locker room main page that I think you guys will be interested in.

Squealy, old chap, take a chill pill, it wasn't even a suggestion that we should move , it was chance to look at an alternative, maybe to Yahoo for aficionados of that. There is no need to go upsetting yourself.

That's alright then. I've got enough stress at work without losing my beautiful EPL.
