World Cup Fantasy Comp

It's run by the same people who do the FA Premier League one, so hopefully it should be good. The players seem to be solely those who play in the Premiership just now; I don't know if any more will be added later. There are unlimited trades available until the first lock out anyway.

To register or log in (previous users can use their old log ins) you need to click here:

http://fpli.premierleague.com/

I've set up a league called, with sparkling wit & originality, "Cricket Web".

The code to join is: 24791-6102. Just click on the "manage leagues" link & enter the code when prompted.

The more the merrier!

Hmmm, this'll be smelly if it is only Premier League players. Anyways, clueless Aussie to enter, and to insult anyone who he ends up beating
