Arda Cup Football 2009 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

It's that time, folks!

After last year's thrilling tournament and fantasy competition, you'd think we would just stop so as to end on a high note. But no! This year will be even better!

There are all sorts of trade rumors floating about. How many teams will experience roster shake ups? And once the rosters are set, who are the favorites? Who are the sleepers? Who will have problems with team chemistry?

Legendary sports writers Nogrod and Skip will keep you up to date, and take you through the tournament game by game. And there's even talk that the great Hookbill may have a thing or two to add to the fun.

But the only thing that can for certain make this year better than last is your participation! Give your opinions, react to the news, and most importantly- own a Phantasy Team!

Last year Gwathagor's squad came away victorious. Will he win yet again, or will some brilliant Downer steal his crown? The fantasy thread will open once the final rosters are released, and the rules for selection will be posted there.

You have a bit of time before things really get rolling. Tell your friends, tell your enemies! Perhaps take a look at last year's tournament to see how some of the teams and players performed.

If you have questions, comments, or simply want to accounce your participation, post away. The thread is open!

Oh, UDUN YES BABY.

Will the press be covering these most impressive events?

If so, I'd like to sign on as the young, attractive cultural correspondent and do a series of pieces about the locations of the matches, fans who have travelled to watch the games, the riots that will most assuredly happen...

One year wiser, it's time to put right the wrong of last summer. Sign me up.

Try putting some Wargs in the teams this year, phantom. I'd suggest entering a team of Wargs but then there would be no contest.

I'm in.

Gwathagor · 05-07-2009, 07:48 AM

Repeat! Repeat! Repeat!

Elmo · 05-07-2009, 07:56 AM

It won't be a repeat for me, I will storm the competition this year.
