    If you are not on the list, you have either not applied or have been omitted due to poor spotsmanship. The people that have been omitted due to sportsmanship issues have been told of this fact, so if your name is still missing, let me know asap. I'm pretty sure I have everyone listed.

    I will send the password via PM soon. This password is private and is not to be given to anyone else.

    New players, I will be running a mini-league starting very soon, so please keep an eye-out for announcements on this thread.

    I'm working on it tonight. Obviously, the league table is not 100% accurate so I have to be a small bit flexible with people.

    The current plan is as follows.

    Assign the 19 players a ranking based on performance in Season 1 (we may get 1 or 2 more returning players).

    Divide the 19 into groups of 4. The first group will consist of the bottom 4 players. I will ask them to pick their top 3 team choices and PM them back to me. The bottom player on the list will get their first pick, and I will work back to the fourth player on the list. Once the teams are assigned, I will post the team selections on this boards, and we will do the same for the next group of 4 players. This will continue until all teams have been assigned. This will speed up the process.

    The teams will be assigned in the following order...

    Season 1 players assigned to Championship
    New players assigned to Championship
    Season 1 players assigned to Premiership
    New players assigned to Premiership

    I'll be creating a mini-league tonight for all NEW PLAYERS and will be posting the password Friday. The minileague will last for 1 week. Players will be assigned to one of the main divisions, subject to the usual fair play rules.

    By the way, if we have an odd number of returning players, more players will be assigned to the Premier League. At the moment, the top 10 will go to the Premiership and the remaining 9 will be in the Championship.

    Yeah well done Futureguy.

    I must admit I'm a little confused about how you're setting up the leagues but I'm sure it will work out alright.

    Am looking forward to getting back into it in the new year.

    Sorry, I'll try to explain things a bit better.

    We have 19 returning players and approx 12 new players for season 2. We know the skills of the season 1 players, but we know nothing about the skills (or more importantly, the sportsmanship of the new players). In order to determine this, I am going to run a 1-week league starting Friday. Only new players may enter.

    At the end of this league, the new players will be assigned to either the Premiership or the Championship. They will join the 19 players from season 1 who will also be assigned to the league.

    So, we will have about 16 players in the Premiership, comprised of 10 of the 19 from season 1 and about 6 of the new players. Likewise, the Championship will be comprised of 9 season 1 players and about 7 new players.

    In each league, the Season 1 players will get first choice, folloed by the new players.

    Hello everyone,

    It has come to my attention that I have been red flagged as a dirty player from BQL Season 1. To those of you out there who felt hard done by when playing me I would like to say I am sorry. I have expressed this apologetic message to Futureuy in several lengthy PM's.

    In my defence I did not realise I was causing such a problem to players and had I been aware of the distress I was causing I would have immediately cleaned up my game but this was not to be the case. Furthermore I did not willingly take out players at critical times in the game when they were closing in on the keeper. Mostly I lashed out when being heavily defeated. But less of the excuses, what's done is done and I apologise for it.

    I would ask that you see fit to give me a second chance because I know for a fact that I can change. I have put it to Futureguy that if there is one single complaint against me that I be banished from the league, no questions asked.

    By letting me join Season 2 you will get a player who will play all his games in a timely fashion (26 games played in Season 1), nearly always with a headset for a friendly chat and one who will not play dirty under any circumstances.

    Regards,
    m83 - "Knackerdwarf"

    I only played you last week man and had no complaints at all. (Liverpool v Inter)
    Was a great game in which I was winning 1-0 with 3 mins to go and you beat me 1-2. Sick I was.

    I for one would welcome you into season 2 but I know it's not up to me.

    I had no problems when playing you IIRC.

    And even if I did, I think that you should be given another chance for coming on here and apologising. As long as you wear an "unclean" or Rangers shirt for a week as punishment :p

    It's a pity the reigning champion of boards league won't be playing next season but feels good to retire with a 100% leagues won record!! :D

    Best of luck organising it Futureguy. You seem like a nice fella and you obviously put a lot of hard work into it.

    INFORMATION FOR NEW PLAYERS JOINING

    Because of the amount of new players asking to join, a new qualifier will begin very shortly (Almost certainly this Friday and will last about a week). I will post the details later today along with the password. The rules are as follows...

    -You may choose any European club team, and teams are not unique. So pick the team you use regularly and give it your best.

    -Once registered, do not play any other player until the all players are signed up, or until I give the word. This should be this weekend.

    -Each player will play each other once.

    -Don't bother wasting my (and other players) time if you are going to be playing like an ass, taking out the last man, quitting games or have intentions of giving up the league if you suffer a few losses. If I find any reason to believe you are going to be a problem, you wont be invited back. I don't care if you win the league, if you an ass, you won't be invited. Simple as.

    -If you have a problem with a player, PM me with details. It's confidential and is the easiest way to stop a problem player getting into the main league.

    I'm sitting here with a calculator and about 6 sheets of A4 with notes on it trying to work it out at the moment. If I post something, it wont be the final list as I am still waiting to see if we have any more returning players. I'd hate to post a list of people that are going to the Premiership, and then to find out that a top player is returning, thus shafting theone of the list back to the Championship!

    I can't believe as well that i was told i wouldn't be allowed back in the league anyway had i not retired and Knackerdwarf is in next season after getting about 10 red cards and quitting out loads!!!:mad:

    Out of 25 odd games i had 3 reds (one of which was a tcakle from behind!!!!!) and i quit out once regretfully when i was pissed, other than those incidents i'm sure everyone here would testify that i was a fair player!!

    Firstly, he did not quit loads. Secondly, he apologised for his behavior to all the players and thats the reason he's being left back in.

    If you want to air dirty laundry, then so be it. He never took out the last man, and you did. I was one on one with your keeper and you made 2 rediculous tackles to stop me from equalising. And lots of players complained about you in the same way. And you also quit games. You also have a DNF of 16-17% so you cannot talk.

    Quite frankly, you were a poor sport through alot of the league and you're not shy about letting everyone know just how good a player you are.

    I was quite happy to let you "retire" gracefully, and move on.
