*knocks politely on the door*
Oh hi there folks, don't mind me please. I'm just your local, friendly League 1 relegation battler.
Even though I'm consigned to roam the vast expanse of the third division for all eternity no matter whether I finish at 5k or 250k, over the past month or two I've focused on getting myself out of relegation, yeah I know it's been a whole thing. (Big news this week, I'm up to 17th on points difference. You should really check us out for some real, old school FPL)
In cold hard data League 1 has more posts than almost the other 3 divisions put together. Not sure if that's good or bad. Or certainly had a few days ago I think. Fake News!
Anyway I enjoy this, but appreciate it must be a pain in the ass to set up. The biggest problem is probably that a lot of people don't really post often or at all which I was certainly guilty of during the middle chunk of the season when everything I touch crumbled.
Wrap it up you say?
It's good fun innit, and all the cool cats are in League 1.
PS
If I get relegated then can we disregard everything I just said and burn it all to the ground

Sounds like I don’t really have a choice I will defo be monitoring the level of attrition this year though to establish whether it’s worth going forward beyond next year.
I’ve no issues putting the time in as long as the interest is genuinely there. Of course any help with the administrative side is always appreciated.0 -

Happy to help if needed hoping to be in the championship next season. I love the structure it would be great if more people got involved in the threads week to week though. I've been lucky every division I've been in has been pretty active the season I was in there.0 -
Same here. I was busier this year than the previosu ones so my activity on the forum dropped significantly but I'd be sad to see this comp' go. I also just realised we did not do the "zarquon charity cup" this year (or maybe you guys did, I was away for so longHappy to help if needed hoping to be in the championship next season.

...). Living in a place where no one cares about this game, the FSA leagues are a great craic for me and always keeps me interested until the end (even if it is just a Saturday check up on my team) when I considered going on the beach early while having a mare of a season

BTW, got a green arrow this GW despite losing. Lost by a single point to Swiper... Just because DDG could not get his 3rd save despite being early enough on 2 :rolleyes: :pac:...0 -

What is the general consensus on this for next year? Didn't seem to generate the same interest this year. Something that is cared about heavily by all and too sacred to reconsider or something not noteworthy enough to be worth the heavy admin involved?
I enjoyed it in league 1 this year
Tried to post in it every week
I enjoy it and would hate to see it go
Now if 6\7 teams could drop out of championship and premier so I can get back to back to back promotions then that would be just great 0 -

Finished with a win
. In the end 5th place for the 5th best score. Europa League level. Not bad .
Feel like the league level was the lowest ever this year. I'm very surprised with getting the 5th best score of the FSA Prem' despite an average season (final OR 33,473 and spent 33 GWs in the 6 digits rankings...).
More globally I feel the game has become a lot more competitive in the last 2-3 seasons (I know there're not 6m players but definitely a lot more active ones than previously). Top 10k rankings given by several sites as an indicator of excellence (e.g. FPL discovery) should pretty much match top 100k (maybe more) now. The times were you could climb very quickly inside top50k after a couple of great GWs towards the end of the season is gone. Toa chieve that a green arrow is not enough, you need a super green arrow with monster scores at least 20-30 pts over top 10k average. Not a bad thing though.0 -

Congrats to Boots234 who is fast making a habit of winning everything I run (treble this year I believe?)
2 points of note for next year
1) If anyone doesn't have an interest in carrying on in this next year, let me know now as it is easier for me to pass the spots down now rather than having tonnes of spot to fill after the deadline.
2) If anyone knows of any potential to bring sponsorship prize money in, that would be great, as I definitely felt that the league was at it's most exciting when people had a cash prize to go with the status symbol. The only restriction I would have on this is that any prize breakdown would have to go from the top down, regardless of who brings in the sponsorship. It clearly doesn't make sense to have 100 euro prize for League 2, and nothing for the Premier League.
The 20 teams who've qualified for the Premier League next year are below:
Boots234
GLaDOS
ronan.h
Dearg81
iroced
FHFC
AdpRo
Benimar
itsnotmyfault
