Euro 2016 Fantasy Football Live Match Chat – The Knockout Phase
Just as the UK votes on a possible Brexit, the group stages at Euro 2016 have been completed with some unfortunates already on their way home, while all the Home Nations secured to Remain for a while longer as England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland all qualified for the round of 16. You will notice a few changes to the fantasy game, so please allow us to run you through them so you are fully up-to-speed.
Price changes – some players price has increased, but only by a minimal amount it would appear. For example Dimitri Payet’s price has risen from 8.0mln to 8.1mln!! So, nothing to get too worried about.
As a result, your budget has increased by 5mln to 105mln, which not only reflects the price changes but also the fact that most of the smaller teams and cheaper players are no longer available due to them being knocked out, hence there are less budget options available.
Transfers – for this round you have an unlimited amount of transfers. For the quarter-finals you will have 4 free transfers, for the semi-finals you will have 6 free transfers and for the final you will have 6 free transfers.
Team personnel – you can now select four players from a single team for the round of 16, followed by five players for the quarter-finals, six for the semi-finals and eight for the final.

Looks like I got away with the ridiculously one sided WC. 13 of the 15 through and 6 transfers to spare. Griezmann saved the week too.
Anyone know why my grav aint working?. I joined the grav site and got my self a pic?.
Should just pull through AnttL. Maybe go back on and change it and see if that triggers anything. Logins have to be the exact same.
Email is same but password isn’t. That matter?.
It’s okay.
Sorted! Finally an Everton grav too. Think that’s the first we’ve had, possibly. Are you from the area then AnttL? And can we just call you Ant?!
Figured you would be, being Everton and not Liverpool
I live in Warrington now but was originally from the Prescot / Rainhill area. I still work in the centre of Liverpool 1 or 2 days a week.
I’m from Fazakerly so your only down the road.
I was christened in Fazarkeley. My Grandad had the Farmers Arms on the main road there for 20 years. Small world.
got 36 points from 3 players, up to 62 points.Griezmann(C), Payet and Kolscielny
36 from 4 here. Not sure what my total is but feels similar. The Frenchies saved the day for once.
Yes they did for me too. Now I have too replace the 3 Belgium and 3 Italian players
Team for the next round. Had to take Ramsey out even though Wales are still in!! (stupid UEFA yellow card rules)
Really solid team!
as u can see i have 7 unavailable players in the semi finals… Any suggestion regarding the transfer would be very much appreciated
Hello Hochoki,
You have six free transfers to use so maybe keep Ramsey (in case the Taffs reach the final) and transfer out the other six unavailables to boost your no’s for the semis.
any suggestion regardin the possible transfer-ins ?
