The existing salary cap leagues are okay, but if you're interested in a more realistic Premier League fantasy experience, then I might have something for you. My friend John and I have 10+ years of experience each playing a variety of fantasy games in various (less interesting) American sports, and we've recently become more interested in doing the same for the Premier League. We've tried to blend the things we like about those other games into a better fantasy football experience than anything else out there, and we like the results so far: a draft-style league with 8--10 owners (each player owned by only one team) with a realistic head-to-head scoring format, with league and cup championships to mirror real English football as we know it. We're still in the early stages, and so far, we've just kept track of the league ourselves in spreadsheets. But we're now planning to put it online for 2011--12, and we're looking for enthusiastic and dedicated potential team owners to join us. If you fit that description, visit our site at simprem.com, then send us an email at [exec at simprem dot com] for more info. And just to be clear, we're not trying to make money on this or anything, except maybe a few pounds/dollars per person to split the cost of the trophies and website (don't want anybody to think I'm here just as a spammer). We're just a couple of competitive guys who love football and are looking for yet another way to enjoy watching matches each weekend.
