If you want to jump in and pick for SLATS4EVER for a week or two, your welcome. He's away for a while

Also, if you're interested in this type of fantasy play, post your email.

* Shame we don't have PM's ... although I understand the reason why we don't.

 

[PY]

You can take over mine if you would like Mr Jamee999, I've got a busy time coming up and so won't be able to post within the 24 hour limit.

Hope I haven't given you too bad a start.

I've updated the web page to include the selected players on a draft sheet. If you need to know who's been taken, and when, you can have a look here.

I'll update the teams and standings at the end of round 5. That way it'll be a little more representative ... everyone having made the same number of picks.

Since we can't really contact Mr James, I've found a replacement for PY. If that's Ok with you. I assume his login will be GratefulCardinals (as always).

If Mr James returns, and is still interested in this kind of fantasy play, then he can email me at johnnya24@yahoo.co.uk

 

[gratefulcardina]

hello to Vintage Cricket Draft

Thanks to Mr PY for letting me have his spot, and to the Commish for all his work.

Looks like a lot of fun (once I get me head around it)

[PY]

Tis ok, you've done me a favour.

The rules aren't that difficult to comprehend once you've been around for a while.

James ... I found a replacement fro PY actually. Could you pick for Slat4Ever until he returns. If your really interested in this kind of league, I'm starting a real one after this using only contmporary player and future stats. If you're interested in this, email me at johnnya24@yahoo.co.uk
