Ring The Reds

I shall play an atractive 4-3-3 like the one Laudrup will no doubt introduce in Getafe.

GK:
Fingolfin - Tuna

DF:
Glorfindel – Rivendell
Ancalagon the Black – Angband
Ulfang - Angband
Thingol - Doriath

MF:
Tuor - Gondolin
Feanor of the Peredhil – Barrow-downs
Gandalf - Lothlorien

FW:
Witch-King - Mordor
Rune Son of Bjarne - Barrow-Downs
Stone Giant – Misty Mountains

As you can see there has been no strategy involved in my selection of players.

Chant:
We love you team Rune we do!
We love you team Rune we do!
We love you team Rune we do!
oooooh team Rune we love you!

Rune is our hero and showed us how to play
The mighty Reds of Middle-Earth is out to win today
He made a team of champions where every man is king
And every game we love to win and this is what we sing:

We love you team Rune we do!
We love you team Rune we do!
We love you team Rune we do!
oooooh team Rune we love you!

We won league we won the cup we are masters of the game
And just to prove how good we are we'll do it once again
We got another team to beat and so we got to try
Cause we are the best in all the land and that's the reason why:

We love you team Rune we do!
We love you team Rune we do!
We love you team Rune we do!
oooooh team Rune we love you!

Fingolfin is our goallie the best there is around
And Tuor is the greates that Rune ever found
Gandalf is our favourit the wizard of the game
and here is that mighty Stone Giant to do it once again!

We love you team Rune we do!
We love you team Rune we do!
We love you team Rune we do!
oooooh team Rune we love you!

(that was the best I could come up with in 10 min. as you can see it does not fit intirely as it is a Liverpool song. . .that is also the reason to why my team goes under the name "the reds")

Can we set up more than one team? My current team is all "Good Guys" (save the Watcher, who I think is motivated merely by self-interest rather than picking a side) I'd like to pick a "Dark Side" team to see how one fares against the other.

Sorry Thenamir I'm afraid it's one team per person. If you'd like you still have unlimited trades till the tournament starts. A few friendlies have been posted in the other thread which may help in picking your final team.

Also, I think you're a bit off on your idea of what's actually going on. Your team won't really be playing, instead each player will be given individual points depending on how they perform in the matches they play for their teams in the actual World Cup.

Right. I understand the basic concept of fantasy leagues, though I've never participated heretofore. I just wanted to see how the good guys would stack up against the bad guys. Thanks!
