Replying To if_in_doubt: "No worries GnR, the code to join the mini league is kVO9OcUvqt0O For the sake of anonymity I've created a profile using my username on here. You'll just need to create an account on Facetheball then join the overall 2018 Allianz Football League - once you're in that you should see the option to join a mini league. For anybody not familiar with the scoring it's pretty simple really but a bit harder than just picking a winner in each game - you need to guess the margin of victory and the closer you are to the correct result the more points you score, bonus points for predicting a draw correctly. All points are automatically updated so takes the work away from Ollie and Cued at least, so the more that join the better - only takes a few minutes to setup a profile." Joined earlier.

Replying To OLLIE: "Lads and Lassies me and a few of the lads have ran the competition the past two years. In year one it was myself and Cuderocket. Last year it was a poster from Kildare and another from Longford who helped me out. Sorry Lads I forgot your names. I don't know if I will be in a position to it this year. I will try my best." HI Ollie, I ran the Division 3 competition last year. I think that Keeper from Longford ran the division 2. I will do it again this year if you can do Division 1 again. For the record the three players promoted from division 3 last year were the_pope_has_spoken, The snapper and Niallpak. lilywhite1 (Kildare) - Posts: 2986 - 23/01/2018 13:37:56 2070090 Link

Can it be run like 2017 competition. Make your predictions, and scores allocated on results. ? thelongridge (Offaly) - Posts: 1731 - 23/01/2018 17:55:02 2070175 Link

I don't know who was in Division One last year. With this Hoganstand forum it only goes back 15 pages. The old one went back 20 pages. OLLIE (Louth) - Posts: 12224 - 23/01/2018 19:09:36 2070195 Link

I was part of division 1 last year anyway so if it's going ahead sign me up! Rocky.Road (Galway) - Posts: 374 - 24/01/2018 08:59:12 2070264 Link
I reckon to save Ollie and the rest of the lads their time and efforts everyone should just sign up to if in doubts league. You can register and join the league in less than 5 minutes. It will be one massive division one league this year. Then perhaps next year we can set up separate divisions based on how this year pans out?

"Kildare have my heart broke" is as apt a name as we're likely to see I think. if_in_doubt (Kildare) - Posts: 3685 - 24/01/2018 12:44:58 2070318 Link

Ok obviously meant 23 not 231 there, does give us something to aim for though... if_in_doubt (Kildare) - Posts: 3685 - 24/01/2018 12:56:37 2070322 Link

Lads and Lassies feck it I am not going to do the league this year. I joined up with this league so at least it's out of my hands. It is good to see another Louth poster join up as well. It looks a great competition anyway. OLLIE (Louth) - Posts: 12224 - 24/01/2018 13:48:27 2070341 Link

Even keeping track of one division. People need to embrace the technology! facetheball.com does all the work so I can't understand why there would be any reluctance to use it.

Good stuff Ollie, this will leave you with more free time to run a few quizzes over on the Other Sports forum again :) As Lockjaw said, it only takes a couple of minute to create an account and activate and then join the mini league - everything after that is automated so nobody needs to keep a track of who picked what team and who scores what.
