Great news, gang. You can now create a private H2H league in the Fantasy Premier League game! It was bound to happen with the new introduction of public H2H leagues last year, but nonetheless I'm pretty stoked when I signed up my team just now. The cool thing is, I also have the option to renew last year's RDB league. So, this got me thinking...
...why not set up two leagues that give you the best of both worlds? One for H2H play and one for points standings. So, basically, you can win two titles and you can manage both leagues with one team. This means whatever transfers you make to your team, it goes for both leagues simultaneously. The idea is, if you're out of it in the points title, you can still vie for the H2H play. If you're so lucky to do well in both formats, you have a challenge on your hands in trying to balance both of your leagues' successes.
A shot at double glory. Whaddya think?
On another note, we have 8 guys signed up so far, which is a nice pace. I have yet to contact a number of last year's participants and I'm also willing to email the guys in the master H2HWS league, as well as those in the UK A and B leagues. With a bit of luck, we might squeeze in 30 or 40 in one league, maybe the 50 max. On the up and up, people.
Nice.
I much prefer the H2H. it just creates more competition ...
I won the H2H last season, but it was the public league thingee, and i missed out on 38 weeks of trash talk ..
I don't care either way about two leagues, but if i am in the running for both titles, oh vey! you guys will never hear the end of it ..
