Fantasy Premier League - An Apology

A statement has been issued regarding the Fantasy Premier League game.

As some of you are aware, many fans trying to access Fantasy Premier League on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning will have experienced problems logging in or registering teams prior to the Gameweek 1 deadline.

While the demand reached unprecedented levels on Saturday morning, we fell short of the standards you expect from the world's biggest fantasy football game and make no excuses for what was both a frustrating and disappointing experience ahead of the new season. For this we apologise unreservedly.

Our technical teams have been working throughout the weekend to ensure the technical issue that led to the problems experienced by users are dealt with. Work also continues to improve the quality of your experience with additional steps taken in the game itself that enable you to:

1. Receive unlimited transfers

No points will be deducted for any transfers you make up to the Gameweek 2 deadline (11:30 BST on Saturday 20th August 2011). If you have already made transfers and had points deducted, these will be restored to your overall total by midnight on Tuesday 16th August 2011. If you have already opted to play your wildcard, this too will be restored at the same time.

2. Opt to start mini-league scoring at Gameweek 2

The option is available to all mini-league administrators to start the scoring from Gameweek 2. Go to 'Leagues' > 'League name' > 'Administer' > Select 'Gameweek 2' in 'Scoring Starts' drop-down menu and click 'Update league details'.

3. Win a VIP trip to watch Man Utd v Chelsea

The manager of the team that accumulates the most points in Gameweeks 2, 3 & 4 will win a VIP trip for two to watch Man Utd v Chelsea on Sunday 18th September 2011 . The prize includes all transport, two nights' accommodation, match tickets, pre-match hospitality and £250 spending money. If there is a tie between teams, the team with the fewest transfers between Gameweeks 2-4 will win the trip. In the event of a further tie, the winner will be selected at random.

4. Win a new monthly prize - iPad2

Each monthly winner of Fantasy Premier League 2011/12 will be able to choose between receiving an iPad2 or the current monthly prize (replica shirt, iPod nano & digital camera). The runner-up will then receive whichever prize is not claimed by the monthly winner.

Who made Rooney captain then?

[ChelseaChick 430]

My team is doing so bad but Rooney is my captain so I got a good few points now, and I had Nani on too. Still though, I hate to see united win!

[Madmax 9,219]

Young fetched me some points today.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

I forgot to change my captain to Rooney

[LDN Blue 7,903]

34points with him! Fuck yeah

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Fuck you.

Hey Everyone,

Was just wondering if TalkChelsea has their own Fantasy League for its members.

We're all Chelsea Fans so it would be nice competing against each other.

If there is one, can someone please tell me the code to join?

If not , then lets make one starting from matchday 4 so that everyone starts from scratch??

I'll be very happy to make one myself but if the moderators wish to go ahead and make one that will be awesome!

Cheers!

Copy & paste this:

I think the problem is, there's a space on the end of dave30's post.

1 week from the end and it looks like "Masterofpuppets" has won the league Congratulations Im in 37th place just about securing my place in the top flight which im happy with considering my terrible start to the season. Looks like its between Hyuds FC and TAcTiCaL iNserTioN for the wooden spoon

[Madmax 9,219]

[capriccioso 2,545]
