Hi everyone - here we go again! With 3 weeks until the first kick-off - September 12th - I've taken the liberty of restarting the AnswerBank League at Sky Sports –
https:/ /fantas yfootba ll.skys ports.c om/
(This is where I pretty much C & P last season’s blurb...)
As last season, we're given £100m to spend & have unlimited transfers until the Match Day deadline on Saturday, 12th September, from then on you get 5 per Game Week / 40 for the season. They've kept the "Overhaul" feature, which means that for one week in September & one week in January, *unlimited* transfers will be available, *not* coming out of the 40 per season allowance - this is always quite handy!

In there, scroll down to "Captain Changes" - you should read that section.
Hopefully all the regulars will enter a couple of teams. If you've not played before & fancy having a go this season, don't worry if you know *nothing* about football - you can use the option to have a team selected at random.
When you've picked a team (or two) - yourself, or used automatic selection, name your team(s), then join the League - ours is called "AnswerBank" & the PIN you need to enter is -
8478433
You can then change the visibility of your team(s) between "Public" & "Private", depending on whether you want other Managers to be able to see the details. When your team is created, click the “Settings” button on the pitch, then click “Change team to private”.
A note here - just because I'm called the League "Chairman" doesn't mean I'm given special powers. I can't see "Private" teams & I get no other privileges.
The following links can be useful (though as they point out, not necessarily definitive) to check for injuries and suspensions prior to game days -

For the 2nd link, click "Go to Injury Table Here" - you *do not* need to set up an account.
The next link can be useful near to, or on, Game Days (though final updates can be infuriatingly late) -

Ok, I think that's covered everything needed to get the League going – I’ll post reminders every now & again, more often as the opening day nears.
I wish everyone lots of fun & good luck for the forthcoming season! :-))

Mamya - sorry I missed your query, but glad you figured it out. In case anyone else has the same problem, if I recall correctly, you need to go the "Leagues" tab at the top, then follow the "Join" instructions.
That might not be right - as I've got 2 teams already it won't show me the options again. If anyone does know exactly how to add a 2nd team, posting the steps on this thread would be a great help, I'm sure :-)

Hi all, Cup competition, previous players will know we usually automatically get entered into it, this season they seemed to have changed it as you'll need to 'Opt in' before 25th September.
Simple if you're interested go to 'Cup' then 'Enter' prize a £1000.
Good on you Mozz and welcome to all players signed up.
