    Okay, well let me say welcome one and all to our first Ligue 1 fantasy football league.

    The first conception of which began with TORPEDO over on the FSU boards and has now sprouted into a very competitive little game, and I hope the same can be said for our little game here.

    The process is simple. Each week, you post your match-predictions and simply predict the outcome of the match. For each prediction you get right you scored one goal. Your aim is to out-score your opponent (basically out-predict) Every score you get spot on, i.e the score-line, you will get one bonus point for that match. So there is a possibility of scoring 20 points in one week.

    As a quick change to the rules, you must post score predictions. I have decided to have them counted as a way of livening it up a bit. Just post your predictions in this thread. Simple. Let me do the rest.

    Now, whilst I can appreciate that everyone here has a life outside BigSoccer. Yes, yes…I know, stop laughing. I can fully understand people having troubles about trying to get all of their predictions in. Given personal circumstances, you can post predictions for any week, whenever you like. If you want to post 3 weeks worth or just the one, then that is fine. If you want to post all 38 - I won’t stop you. But I will get annoyed…lol.

    To make sure that you are up to date with all the fixtures here is the full Ligue 1 fixture list for the 2005/06 season.

    http://www.footpro.fr/calendrier/Ligue_1_Orange_2005_2006.htm

    I would recommend that you save it and keep it on your hard-drive as a little reminder, when match days are coming up. I will normally post the upcoming fixtures in this thread, so you won’t have to rely on memory for every post.

    By a rule of thumb, I would recommend getting them in by Friday Morning. Some Ligue 1 games kick-off at around 13:00 EST on a Friday. If you manage to miss a Friday match or an early Saturday match - don’t panic. You can still score some points by posting your predictions for matches that have not yet kicked off.

    In the unlikely event that certain games are called off in Ligue 1, that game is annulled from the prediction count. However if that postponed match was a game in which one of your teams were playing - we carry on as normal and everyone plays each other each week. No games in the Fantasy league are postponed.

    Mid-week match days also count. But midweek makeup matches do not…

    If you forgot to post, your ‘goal count’ will be the amount of goals your real-life team has scored that week-end x2. So if your team is Lyon, and Lyon score 3, then your score shall be counted as 6. 'Gifted goals' such as this DO NOT count on the top-scorers list at the end of the season.

    Again. Don’t worry with the rules, it will all make sense when we have all posted. Leave the worrying to me. You guys just post predictions.

    After each week, I shall post the real-life scores and subsequent Fantasy League scores. Then all shall be made into a neat little table. Whoever finishes top of the league shall win. The person who scores the most goals (i.e - points), shall also win.

    All I can say now, is have fun..

    Btw: Can I also add, that a by a strange coincidence of fate, I shall be away in Las Vegas for probably the final match day. So I could well, buy a neat gift for our overall winner. I’m hoping I can muster together some prizes for our top three finishers and overall top-scorer. And possibly a wooden spoon for our last placed finisher! Something French of course! Maybe a nice bottle of Bordeaux or maybe a Les Bleus football shirt! Well, we will have a few weeks to figure this one out…

    Enjoy! :)

    Don't you worry, I'm here. My PM is now enabled again, so you may call me if you want.

    Mine :

    Le Mans v Lyon : Lyon 1-4
    Lille v Rennes : Draw 0-0
    Marseille v Bordeaux : Draw 2-2
    Nancy v Monaco : Monaco 0-3
    Nantes v Lens : Draw 0-0
    Nice v Troyes : Draw 0-0
    PSG v Metz : PSG 2-0
    St-Etienne v Ajaccio : St-Etienne 2-1
    Sochaux v Toulouse : Sochaux 2-0
    Strasbourg v Auxerre : Strasbourg 2-1

    PS : Do you want the full scores, or just the outcome of games ? I put the scores because others did, but I think we should stick with outcomes (on a "keep it bloody simple" basis).

    Anyway, I think I'll express the opinion of the whole BS french forum community when I say : "Thanks Mr. Ganu for doing the most boring part of the game" :) .

    You get a bonus point for getting the scoreline correct as well. He said it in the opening post; if you were my student, I would reprimand you for not reading carefully;)

    Le Mans 0-4 Lyon
    Lille 1-1 Rennes
    Marseille 2-0 Bordeaux
    Nancy 1-3 Monaco
    Nantes 0-0 Lens
    Nice 1-1 Troyes
    PSG 3-2 Metz
    St-Etienne 3-0 Ajaccio
    Sochaux 0-0 Toulouse
    Strasbourg 1-2 Auxerre

    Also, what do I do since I currently have no opponent? Will it just be a free win (assuming no one signs up at the 11th hour).

    Yes. But we are still counting your points, as the top-scorers list;

    The competing against each other in a league, just adds a little spice to the proceedings.

    Meh. I decided to change it, and then put in scores. It makes it more fun I guess, you get one bonus point for every score you get spot-on.

    Lens (the team you will be playing against) scores double the goals they score in real-life. So if Sang et Or hit 4 in Nantes on Saturday, they'll get 8 points for this game. It's the only way to compensate for vacant teams.

    Points scored by vacant teams (be they permenantly vacant or not do not count on the top-scorers list)

    Gotcha. I guess I better hope that they don't score at all.

    And just for clarification, are the standings done in table format? For example:

    I get six of my predictions right (but none of the scorelines), and Lens score three goals (therefore giving them six points), we tie. Would I then get 1 point for the fantasy league rankings?
