2021/22 FSA Championship Signup thread

Scorpion Sting · 06-07-2021 6:54pm #1

Hi all, we're back for the eighth annual running of the Boards FSA leagues.

I've PMed the code for the league. Please don't post the code here for obvious reasons.

The deadline for all signups is 31 July 2021 at 23:59, no exceptions.

Please keep chat to a minimum here to make the admin task easier. A post with just your team ID will suffice.

Please note: For those new to this forum or these leagues, this is a league which had to be qualified for in the previous FPL season and new entries are not being taken right now.

Further details about qualifying for these leagues will be posted in the coming weeks.

Good luck everyone.

Hi folks. There has been a mistake with setting up the league as it was set up as as a classic league instead of a head-to-head.

I have asked that person to change it and I will pm the new code to people within the hour.

Scorpion Sting · 06-07-2021 8:53pm

Ok I have pmed the new code to everyone.

Signups can now restart. Thanks all.

Hi folks. Unfortunately the FSA leagues won’t be taking place anymore due to issues with the new Boards forum.

If there’s interest in an FSA Cup I would gladly help out on it.

How many divisions were there and how many teams in each league?

jimmii · 19-07-2021 7:50pm

Was 3 or 4 leagues of 20 plus the qualifier league. Can't remember if there was a league two or not pretty sure there was. The qualifier league was pretty big was dam tough to get our of at the start.

jimmii · 19-07-2021 7:54pm

Maybe just a two league format with a Premier league division and a qualifier division? Could have a league Cup for each using the new one on the official site. Be a real shame to lose the structure its been brilliant over the years. This forum update really has been an absolute mess not often you see something done this poorly.

remoteboy · 19-07-2021 8:44pm

Would be very sorry to see this go too. Love taking part in it every year. Missed out on the Premier League by one place the first year it ran. Was relegated to League One a few years later and fought hard to get back into the Championship.

Is there anything I can do that will help keep this alive?

CSF · 19-07-2021 8:59pm

https://boards.ie/discussion/comment/117634658#Comment_117634658

I'm gonna chat with Scorpion Sting and see if hes ok with me either helping him get something going (even if it has to be slightly altered) or look after it for a year myself.

remoteboy · 19-07-2021 9:24pm

More than happy to help too. Just drop us a message and let me know what you need.

jimmii · 19-07-2021 10:23pm

We have the leagues set up may as well crack on it some way.

Hogey007 · 20-07-2021 4:48pm

only getting around to this now due to all the board downtime.

not sure what's happening now from reading this thread but i signed up for the championship and my ID is 805466 if it's going ahead

Hi Hogey. I think CSF is gonna take the reins from here.

CSF · 21-07-2021 10:28pm

I'm gonna resume the running of this. So people can continue to sign up with the 31st July deadline. This will be the case for the Premier League and Championship and depending on the numbers that have signed up by then, I'm gonna make a decision on how League 1 and 2 will work after that.

Given the circumstances we're currently facing, there will be no room at all for flexibility on the signup process. Has to be done perfectly and on time now.

jimmii · 22-07-2021 7:19am

Good on you CSF. We have 16 currently in the league on FPL so almost there.

Xander10 · 22-07-2021 5:33pm

will people in the qualifying league get PMs of availability?

CSF · 22-07-2021 8:21pm

https://boards.ie/discussion/comment/117648198#Comment_117648198

With the current situation I'm not gonna get ahead of myself with planning. Will see how the 2 top leagues fill up and work accordingly.

You would think it should be just as easy to to do the other leagues, but as a caveat, you could extend the deadline to say the 6th August, and then open it to first come first served for the lowest league. Granted that might not be the fairest way, but it's probably the only way you'll get them up and running for definite.

I think i joined boards after the league was set up, and who knows i might have been regulated from league 4 or whatever, but i do feel that they are quite a number of posters in the leagues who rarely ever post - obviously there is no right or wrong to that, but if you do drop the leagues, and/or open the leagues to first come first serve, would you be losing that much? It might be great to have lads who are top 100 in Ireland in said leagues, but if they aren't really posting much content in the forum, prior to the update, they won't be posting much now, so do they bring much to table?

jimmii · 23-07-2021 10:59am

Maybe start a league one sign up thread and see how it goes? Ateast we're keeping it going even if it might not end up as deep. Maybe extend it and see if we can get a 3 league format plus q league that would be pretty good going. We're up to 16 in the Championship so with over a week still to go looking good to fill that.

Feck it.

CSF · 24-07-2021 12:28pm

Can I ask a favour lads? Can someone PM me a link to the actual league on the site itself so that I can monitor accordingly who has actually signed up

My hope is that there won't need to be much need to change format. I've 16 in Premier League and 17 in Championship now so it might not be as bad for attrition as I thought. May open up the other 2 leagues (albeit with a later deadline than the top 2 which will 100% close next week) shortly enough.

Your point about us losing active posters is absolutely valid and we're going to see it this season with the new forum format driving people away. Still too early to put people into that bracket though since alot of people wouldn't be back 4 weeks before the season like ourselves.

Ace2007 · 24-07-2021 9:35pm

Hahaha, you mean less than 3 weeks :P

I sure do. You would expect counting to be in my arsenal being an FPL veteran but alas.

Dearg81 · 26-07-2021 8:13am

I'll join this later in the week as I purposely haven't created a team yet.

Can someone send me the league code please. I don't have access to the old PMs so don't have it anymore.

Igonore that, looks like I'm back in the premier league now.

CSF · 02-08-2021 3:41pm

We've had 1 not sign up in time (iroced) and Dearg81 moving up to Premier League to vacant spot there means 2 spots left in this league.

I'll be PMing shanotheslayer and ElTel to offer the spots now with a 5 PM 3rd August deadline to sign up.
