Well, not a bad start....

After a really quick look through everyone's teams, I make Andy Power the leader after day one with 46 points.

I, myself, am a litlle off the pace on 38, but somewhere around the top five.

A hell of a long way to go though lads! Hope all the teams you support did well today, or do well tomorrow :D

WWWOOOO winning already with 46 points, and I still have points to come in as i got Utd players in my team :woot: :woot:

You arn't winning any more! :p

Well done to everyone so far!

These are the current standings after week one:

Not bad considering 3 of my players scored nothing as they didnt play
looks like you guys are doing pretty well so far, i still have 5 players that need to play thou, they are palying today so hopefully chealsea will do well and hopefully arsenal will as well.

That explains your position on yesterday's table... Nice recovery, this is going to be a good competition!

Is anyone going to post their teams now?

Noooo not first anymore!!

I'll post my team then:

Keeper: Sorensen (Aston Villa)

Defenders: Silvestre (Man Utd)

Naysmith (Everton)

P Neville (Man Utd)

Midfielders: Gerrard (Liverpool)

Keane (Man Utd) Captain

Wright-Phillips (Man City)

Okocha (Bolton)

Speed (Bolton)

Forwards: Vassell (Aston Villa)

Cisse (Liverpool)

Subs:

Keeper: Kiely (Charlton)

Defender: Popovic (Crystal Palace)

Powell (Crystal Palace)

Forward: Morrison (Birmingham)

It's ok I guess seeing as I'm second in league now :happy:

Edited by Powa

Here is my team as I intend to line up for this weeks fixtures. Differences from last week are outlined below:

Kiely was on the bench for week 1, Jaaskelainen played because he was the home team. Jaaskelainen, however, is the 'away' keeper for week 2, so Kiely gets the nod.

Wright-Phillips played in week 1, but he is now replaced with Matt Holland (providing he recovers from injury) because Charlton play at home to Portsmouth - an easier fixture than Liverpool away.

Hitzelsperger has been transferd in place of Savage (who played for me in week 1) for three reasons:

1) Savage won't score in the next game

2) Savage has a pretty lame Diserplinery reccord

3) Aston Villa will concede less goals :)

*Note - this is my first ever attempt at Fantasy Football *

One good game and 4398 people sign him. Remember, he didnt score a single goal last year! :shifty:

I hope he doesn't dissapoint :D

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
