Posted September 18, 200717 yr I've just joined in. Yes...it's another one, and yes, I'm pretending to look busy at work. This one's for real though. Official and all. Must join untill (TODAY) 18 Sep 20:30 CET to start from scratch. Rules are pretty much the same as the Fantasy League from Sky, apart from a few small tricks. READ THEM. If anyone's interested, just join the game, post something here, and I'll start a league for us. CL Fantasy League: [web]http://en.uclfantasy.uefa.com/M/home.mc[/web]

September 18, 200717 yr I'm in. Managed to put together an okay team. I just hope that they score some points too
September 18, 200717 yr In - it's full of Portugeezers, every time I walk down the street minding my own business they, seemingly at random, fall over clutching their shins.
September 18, 200717 yr S M Just back of hols............think I just about scraped in!!!!!!!!!!!! Cheers Steve
October 2, 200717 yr Author To those involved and who might want to make some changes. Next deadline Open: Matchday 2: 2 Oct 18:15 CET (TODAY) And just to show the astronomical level of confidence I have nowadays in the mighty CFC, I have Miguel in my team. (no goals suffered=bonus points)
October 4, 200717 yr Non posters don't count!! Loz on top again - time to scrap that rubbish BPL and bring in this excellent competition and Xpert Eleven as the official Shed End pastimes!!
October 4, 200717 yr Cut the guy some slack - he is called Fernando Noronha da Costa after all - any man with a middle name that sounds like something you might catch off a Naples hooker has to get some sympathy
October 4, 200717 yr Author Gordon...that coming from you of all freaks people...the man who's an obsessive compulsive FM player and is trying to understand the ins and outs of managing in the 24 th century (playing untill the year 2317). Sir loz. it wasn't in Naples but you might just be on to something there. P.S. F%$(/&%$#INKG Ancelotti, Camacho, Benitez and Quique Flores ruined - although temporarely - my glorious path to the title. P.P.S. Loz, make it a sticky, please ?

February 28, 200817 yr Author F**k just as I was thinking I could win based on lack of quorum. Seriously, I'm sorry for not updating the issue. It's still going on, yes. As a matter of fact, I've done a parallel mini-competition starting after the groups stage, especially for the folks that joined only after the original league started, so they could get a new chance. (refer to the league's forum) So the one and only original Banana League is still alive, and there's also a new "mini-league" wich started on the Round of 16. It's called "Nova BANANA LEAGUE" and the code is 131777-46034. And here's the last update on the BANANA LEAGUE : Overall Group stage # Team Manager Matchday Total 1 FC Traveler David Pádua 39 337 2 JatãofazendogolosFC Eduardo Luis Gomes da Silva 44 333 3 Lokomotiv Chamuça Fernando Noronha da Costa 38 319 4 We Don't Score Rui Gomes da Silva 40 316 5 Sport Club Barreiro João Gomes 31 315 6 migsar Miguel Sarmento 27 314 7 dudufc Eduardo Gomes da Silva 49 310 8 super dan pet rescue david walker 26 308 9 Jumpers 4 Goalposts Steve Mathers 36 306 10 Faster than you...
