    Yeah, congrats, you were probably the best team all year, so there is some justice in that.

    It was a very strange ending to the season, and something that will probably never happen again. Spongey had a real chance if that game had been finished, though you were still favourite. I was trying to think of a way of resolving it fairly with that one game unplayed, but I don't really see it, so we'll have to go with that kind of truncated result.

    Thanks all for another great season. Looking forward to next year....

    Thanks to all for confirming - once again we have a full group returning again, all 12 have confirmed from last year.

    I'll set up the draft poll in the next week.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Poll now up for draft time.

    Please select 5 times that suit within the next week. Please limit the times to after 7pm as that is usually what suits people. I will leave this open for 4 days.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,026 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I'm only seeing two dates and four options. It's okay for me though, I picked the two most suitable times on 4th September.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Apologies, Doodle has changed a little and I set it up wrong. I have fixed it to include more days.

    By the way, it has now assumed that all the times I gave as options are also the times I chose, for some reason - this is not the case, and I cannot change my picks without paying for the pro option. Anyway, I will adjust it as we decide on times.

    Last 24 hours if anyone wants to reply to draft poll. Monday at 9pm is leading at the moment, looks like it will be at that time.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Draft now set for Monday at 9pm.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    How did the draft go, guys?

    Apparently Awkward Customer won the draft again, this is the third year in a row! It hasn't always resulted in production during the year though :-)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,026 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I finished 11th. It must have been my two 'reaches' for Anthony Richardson and Ezekiel Elliott that did me. 😁



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    There are few things more meaningless in FF than a team's draft ranking :-)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,314 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    Lads, anyone know what happened the owner of Pick Sixes? He didn’t set a line up against me this week and by the look of it hasn’t changed since week 4



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭Spongey1975


    Thats Lorcans team, he passed away a month ago.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,026 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,314 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    Ah ****! I’d no idea

    Really sorry to hear this. I hope the above didn’t sound insensitive now. I just had no clue at all

    Condolences to any of his friends here. RIP

    Here's the original post made by Kamara Chameleon on the ESPN Boards League message post on October 7.

    "I have some very sad news for all. After a short illness, Lorcan passed away yesterday. His funeral details are here - https://rip.ie/death-notice/lorcan-mcnamee-sligo-sligo-town-532024 - for anyone who might like to leave a note or happen to be in the Sligo area.

    This was his league and it brought him much joy, and frustration, over the past years. He'll be very much missed."

    Seemed like a lovely man, so well thought of by his family and friends. He will be missed. May he rest in peace. 🙏



  • Registered Users Posts: 541 ✭✭✭In Exile


    Wow. I am only catching up on this now. I was wondering why he was sitting last as his team was always so competitive. Awful news



  • Registered Users Posts: 541 ✭✭✭In Exile


    Talk about squeezing through. Needed 2.31 points from Adams and Buttker to make the final and got 2.4



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,140 ✭✭✭Onecoolcookie


    Haha yeah that was against me 😥

    Great competitive league again guys, very enjoyable!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,171 ✭✭✭Neamhshuntasach


    If the league is running again this year. I'll be in again.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,140 ✭✭✭Onecoolcookie


    Hopefully we run it again, great league.

    Im in!



  • Registered Users Posts: 490 ✭✭darklighter


    Following Lorcan's sad passing, is anyone willing to take over as GM of the league?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,314 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    I don’t mind doing it, if it can be handed over to me?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭Spongey1975


    I had thought about this soon after last season but dont know what needs to be done. New league or contact ESPN, the old league had the history of winners etc



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,026 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I thought there was a second person with manager access.

    We need to rename the league to Lorcan's name so he's not forgotten.



  • Registered Users Posts: 490 ✭✭darklighter


    Hopefully there is a second admin account! If not, we can try to get ESPN to make someone else the GM



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,314 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    I see this has been reactivated today!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭Spongey1975


    You can thank eagle eye for getting it reactivated. I've agreed to act as GM if nobody objects. Will see who as verified as coming back and we will need one new player at least, then post up a doodle for the draft. I've also renamed the league to "Lorcan McNamee Memorial PPR"



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,026 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    A Sligo man ran it very well for a long time and I thought it'd be only right if another Sligo man took over.

    Can we hold off for a short while in adding another player. I might have somebody that everybody would be happy with as the new member. I'm hoping to hear back from him shortly.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭Spongey1975


    I'm trying to match up teams with usernames and missing these ones

    SlingLom OwLions

    Kamara Chameleon

    Awkward Customer

    Medellin Pickle Task Force

    Only one of the usernames above that i havent matched to a team is Neamhshuntasach (tell me who you are) so that will leave 3 of these teams as unconfirmed. I will send out a league email and hopefully others will confirm
