Euro U21’s Competition, Potty Style!
Thanks for reading Euro U21’s Competition, Potty Style!
Good Evening and welcome to the launch of my Summer Competition. Given as UEFA have left all us good fantasy folk stranded with no actual competition to play I thought I would step forward to try and fill the void a bit with my own little competition, just to keep us entertained. The competition is based on the Under 21 European Tournament which starts on Friday 16th June. Screw UEFA then, let’s get on with it…
Your aim is to gather as many points as possible, its that simple.
Follow this link to the UEFA site to find all you need to know when selecting your men who’ll hopefully bring you European Glory (then click on the Under 21 tab).
Lets Play ‘Its A Pre-Tournament Gamble’
The Rules.
A – Select 5 players from any position you wish.
B – Highlight one as your Captain (C) for double points.
C – Your men may come from just one of the Under 21 teams or a pick and mix from any.
D – Your five man team must be picked ahead of the tournament starting, hence its all a Potty gamble.
E – There will be two groups which I’ll draw on Monday at 9pm, with the top four after the group stage is complete making the semi-finals stage.
The Potty Points System!!!!
All your players will gain points as follows…
Appearance (and even off the bench) = 15pts
Goalkeeper/Defender cleansheet = 25pts
Goalkeeper/Defender conceeding = -10pts per goal
Any player making an assist = 20pts per assist
Any player scoring = 30pts per goal
Yellow or Red Card flashed = -5pts & -8pts respectively.
Now pick your 5 star men from these teams…
Poland
England
Slovakia
Sweden
FYR Macedonia
Portugal
Serbia
Spain
Czech Republic
Italy
Denmark
Germany
The 1st part of the competition, and your 5 picks as per above, are for the group stages only. You will get to pick a different squad after that but stay tuned for details should you qualify that far.
So do a wee bit of research then post those men of yours below.
Cheers my dears x

For anyone who wants a blank copy to colour in themselves and play with however you like here is a link. Just do a “Save as” that way you can edit the Excel sheet however you like as you will not be able to edit the one on the actual link.

Lost me with the “save as” Mito. Could you do one for me and post it to us please, should get it before August. Oh, don’t bung any drugs in the envelope.
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
I mean open it save your own copy, once you open it you should see a FILE tab near the top on the left. When you click on that it should give you a save as option on the left. You can then rename it as you wish and save it, just be aware where you you put it on your pc. From there you should be able to do with it as you like and edit however you deem necessary. If you want it filled for you, then just follow the site one you fool. 😉

Afternoon Guys = “An Update”
After tomorrow night’s matches (that’s Wednesday) you will see the points posted by me for all the Group’s/Pods/ and League.
Then you’ll know ahead of the final set of Group fixtures which commence on Thursday if you are in contention for a Semi-finals spot and this may determine what transfers you wish to do.
The points I am now using is those from the Polish Fantasy Under 21 game itself.
See you tomorrow night.

CAPTAIN UP

Was that not an assist + for Djurd?
Mito21 @TheLegendMito21
According to the site it isn’t

It doens’t seem to fall in one of these, but then again neither does Podence’s one for Portugal’s first game. Unless they thought Podence’s was a shot at goal. The case where someone makes a pass and it deflects on an opposition player doens’t seem to coun’t as an assist +. They haven’t given it atm.
8. Position of “Assist+” can be considered as the least understandable in Scoring. The player (called A) is awarded by Assist+ when:
a) made a pass or shot (A) and then the own goal was scored by some defending player (B) (after that pass/shot);
b) or when he shot the post or bar (A) and after other player (B) scored;
c) or when he shot (A), goalkeeper defended (C) and after other player scored (B).

I thought that last line about the keeper would probably mean it included a defender deflection as it’s a similar thing but that was a massive assumption!

This is what a Portuguese sports newspaper just said to be Portugal’s official first XI for tonight’s match:
Bruno Varela; João Cancelo, Edgar Ié, Rúben Semedo e Kevin Rodrigues; Rúben Neves, João Carvalho, Renato Sanches e Bruno Fernandes, Gonçalo Guedes e Daniel Podence

Grrr they inured my Serbian defender Gajic who is now off at half time! FFS!
