Hi everyone - with 11 days to the start of the new season in the Premier League, I've taken the liberty of restarting our AnswerBank League at Sky Sports -
https:/
As last season, we're given £100m to spend per team & have unlimited transfers until the Match Day deadline on Friday, 11th August. From then on you get 5 per Game Week, with a maximum of 50 for the season. They've kept the "Overhaul" feature, when *unlimited* transfers will be available, *not* coming out of the 50 per season allowance - this is always quite handy! This season though (from what I can tell at the moment) it'll only be available once - Game Week 22 (?) in January. I'll add more info as it becomes available.
Rules & FAQs here - https:/
In there, scroll down to "Captain Changes" - you should read that section.
Hopefully all our regulars will enter a couple of teams each. If you've not joined in before & fancy having a go this season, don't worry if you know *nothing* about football - you can use the option to have a team selected at random.
When you've picked a team (or two) - yourself, or used automatic selection, name your team(s), then join the League - ours is called "AnswerBank" & the PIN you need to enter is -
2546257
You can then change the visibility of your team(s) between "Public" & "Private", depending on whether or not you want other Managers to be able to see who you've picked. When your team is created, click your "Team Name" button above the pitch, then click the switch from "Public" to "Private".
A note here - just because I'm called the League "Chairman" doesn't mean I'm given special powers. I can't see "Private" teams & I get no other privileges.
The following link can be useful (though as they point out, not necessarily definitive) to check for injuries and suspensions prior to game days -
http://
The next link can be useful near to, or on, Game Days (though final updates can be infuriatingly late) -
http://
Ok, I think that's covered everything needed to get the League going – I’ll post reminders every now & again, more often as the opening day nears & then for each Game Week.
I wish everyone lots of fun & good luck for the forthcoming season! :-))

Hi Moorea - glad to see you :-)
The first part you mention is your own login procedure for the site. You then pick a team or two & when you name them, it *should* ask if you want to join a League & that's where the info in the OP comes in.
If that's not right for some reason, come back & someone (maybe Arky, he's good at this) will try to help further :-)

You're welcome no problem, I went through it again step by step as I typed just not submitted into the league as a ghost player.
Additional info for all. if you want your team to be private so other players in our league can't see the players you've selected:
In 'My team' page to the right of your Team name is a notepad and pencil icon. Click on that you can change from public to private, you can also change your team name if not happy with it.
Personally I prefer folk not to do this halfway through the league though.
Moorea I think you must be pending as I can't see you in our league as yet. Maybe midnight or something I can't remember.
As for being at the bottom of the league that is specially reserved for the Ab Editor's if they join us again ;-)
