Kopite Juniors announces it has retained its young female coach, Chloe Adams.

The 7 year old phenom coach is still bragging about her success last year but is more than a little pissed off at being "randomly" selected to pick last in the draft. "Sounds a bit like the Florida debacle to me" she was quoted as saying as she stormed off to rip a few barbie heads off.

Her mentor and advisor "Big Daddy" tried to calm her down with a Chocolate Pop Tart, but failed. ;)

Maybe we should just go with the 8 teams we have.... which will give us a larger pool of players to dip into during the season.

i'm currently in this league and in the cranblue's chelsea one, which i thought was gonna be fine...then it transpires that we're gonna do some kinda cup competition between the two.

i think it's slightly unfair that i'll get to be in two leagues when other willing competitors don't get even one chance. the fact that both leagues may play cross-divisional games...meaning i could potentially play myself makes it all the worse.

plus, it'll be hard for me to keep track of the two drafted teams, doing justice to either.

if everyone is in agreement, i'll pull out and let mtkillamanjohno take my place. presumably you'd have to accept Ruud as your first choice.
sorry to mess you around, lads...

Direct competition this year for the young lady in the form of 10 year old Andrew.
10 year old Andrew, the eldest of the famous Hughes "clan", has said that he and his team, Romans Roubles look forward to the challenge.

Welcome back, all.

There were 6 of us from last year's parallel draft league who stayed active the whole year, and it made for a great season. This year, we are looking to add 4 new managers to make it an even 10. We have already added one (JG_Revs) and now ArsenalTexan and Scouse are in, so we've got one spot left. First person to post here gets it.

If you see your username listed, you've got your spot reserved:

1) DoctorJones24
2) Ingromius
3) Hal
4) Clanblue
5) kopiteinkc
6) JG_Revs
7) 1-800 World Cup.com
8) Arsenal_Texans
9) Scouse
10) _______________



To participate in the draft league you will have to:

A) login to the main site again with a new email/username/password
B) create a new team full of scrubs
C) get the private league password from me and join


I'd like to be an alternate if someone drops out, and you need a spot filled...

From Arsenal Texan.. by PM

My net is down so I have to bow out. Sorry.

I think the only way to get this done is to do it the way we did last time...... in one mad push.

Only those serious enough will be around for the fun.

Let Darr take his place.
He is a regular poster and has expressed a willingness to participate in the past.

I would like to try to get in a couple of hours of the draft on Sunday. So I vote for the hybrid option. Depending on when on Sunday and how many rounds we get drafted, then we can do the rolling thing during the week.

BTW, was this a random order? Or in reverse order from last year's finish? Mark (I mean Chloe), quite a coincidence that we draft 9 and 10. LOL

Well, I've got a stopover in CT before heading out on the high seas tomorrow at 6am. I see we've lost two members: Scouse and Arsenal_Texan3.

However, I do like the idea of 10 teams better than 8, so since we already have two willing alternates, I'd prefer to just slide them into those spots.

So mtkilimanjaro would take Scouse's spot (and Ruud...or restart the draft on Sunday? either way works for me)

And Darr would take Arsenal_Texan's spot.

That leaves JG_Revs as our last AWOL manager. He PM'd me last week saying he definitely wants in, but since then, I've PM'd him twice more and not heard back.

Btw, dad. The draft order was totally random...out of a hat. If we had gone by last year's reverse order, I think we'd have to have given you the first 3 picks on your own!

Maybe someone could try to work on getting an answer from JG_Revs over the weekend, or replace him if needed by Sunday? Sounds like the other 9 of us might all be available Sunday for a few rounds, which would be very cool.

I just want to reiterate that if you choose to play in this division, you need to commit to staying active the entire EPL season.

It took the gloss off last year when 2 of 8 were inactive.

Well, I've been awaiting a spot in a league so I have a team of players already, I just need the password so I can join the league... I patiently await the pword and league name...

That's the truth. My wife just phoned me twice during the first half of Ajax v Liverpool and she wonders why I am not listening to her ...

"yes, dear" (Kewell to Baros, shoots ...)
"what was that, didn't catch that" (shot goes wide)

etc .....
