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

Hi Init it’s letting me log in initially then as soon as I tab on go to comment it logs me out , keep clearing crèche & rebooting laptop & eventually I can get in a lot of security on my work lap top seems to be ok on IPad & iPhone cheers;)
We said clear the cache, not boot kids out of play school
Yeah all that says to me that you are still viewing an old version of the site. Have you followed all of the cookie info on the link?
Just by the by, and this is a serious question- do you work for DEFRA?
Christ Init this Predictive text is killing me never read back no I don’t work DEFRA but I can tell you I’m on alert for terrorist activity or can I sorry I take that back or I might have to K— you 😉
Of course I have followed the instructions let you know if problems tomorrow cheers 😉
I have no idea what you are talking about
Only asked as someone with an IP address attached to the DEFRA HO failed to log in.
The issue is fixed so it should return to normal soon enough. It clearly has for some already.
No worries Init I’m only messing I thought you knew who I once worked for 😉
Init, he works for Gale.
We all work for a wife when it suits :smiling:
Wow!! What an absolute cracker! Cze 3-1.
Germany v Denmark teams
Evening all.
Now that tonight’s football has finished and I’m still having a beer. What do i do?
On the football by the way, I’m preferring the U21 tournament to the Confed Cup so far.
Hey GP thk Spain will rest some players the under 21 has been good you can see the inexperience but overall it has been good
Silvers I think I’m right in saying that they’re the only ones through for sure?
Yes everyone else in 1/2/3 needs a win possibly a draw for Ger so should put full teams out 😉
Get cracking on your pre-season article? Which team that you’d barely heard of did we agree you’d do again?!
I’m doing Brighton mate.
That’s not too bad! I’d have thought you’d have been given Huddersfield 😉
Confed has been pretty shit to be honest. Definitely prefer the U21s even though I don’t know the majority of the players.

League Update after the conclusion of GW2…
Kop continues his current magnificent fantasy run and clings to top stop. He’s feeling the pressure though.
Rosco storms into 2nd with the highest score of the week of 75.
Cookie makes a surprise appearance in the top 6. But will he throw it away?
Mito plummets to 7th with the lowest score in the top half this round.
Colriles, myself, Matt, DMC, @Natural and Morbid Mike are all fairly well bunched in mid table and still all within striking distance of the top.
Silvers clings to life in there too. Literally. He should survive this one though.
Second page…
GP continues his recent woeful fantasy form with an appearance on p2.
And finally Potty does what he does best – props us all up.
I’m trying my best to make this sound exciting. It’s not working is it?!
The league itself is ranked 2nd this week and now 5th overall. Which isn’t bad bearing in mind we shut it to new entrants and there are only 30 of us in there.
Don’t forget to do your teams for GW3 which starts tomorrow night at 7.45pm. We will see the line-ups for the first 4 teams prior to the deadline.
Enjoyed the round up Init 😉
Woah woah woah woah “woeful fantasy form”?
I missed ONE MLS deadline man! But if you do that then that is you basically screwed until next season!
Considering I threw a team together in five minutes for this, I’m happy all my players seem to at least exist.
Ah sorry mate. I was referring to FPL mainly, didn’t even think about MLS. Case closed then your honour ?! :hippo:
Gp I missed last under 21 dead line I didn’t thk you could change team until all games played in Gw but that’s not the case interesting last GW could be the decider 😉
You d!ck
I’m a relative novice in FPL terms btw.
Never mind Silvers
Happens to the best of us pal.
I’d be wary of that fella in 5th, Init…. he wants to kill you!! 😉
Oh God yeah! Probably Rich
Probably!! He’s been asking us all for ideas on how to do it behind your back! (Just don’t tell him I told you)
Pretty sure he could have me point blank on the floor and he’d still shoot himself in the foot
Hahaha :big-lol:
Quality round up Init
Man alive haven’t been able to log in for days! Eventually worked it out!
Chuffed I’m second in the league! Bit worried about rotation this next game so I’ll have to do some serious research tomorrow!
Enjoying the U21 comp, some canny matches so far!
