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

Ah the Everton signing effect!
Never even thought about that to be honest. Just saw that nearly everybody else had gone Asensio so picked someone different.
Fair enough. I’m torn myself between going ‘safe’ with the popular guys or going ‘cookie’, that is, going full on one team. I’m actually debating that for the FFP one, albeit limited to 6 per team.
Sort of done that with my FFP one. In so much as 9 of the players are from 2 teams. I do only have 10 players too
I must say that thought came to mind while building the team, going with 10men that is, but wasn’t confident enough with my 10. Unless… ah, I know what you did. But I won’t tell. I’ll just say you can’t save a penalty without a keeper!
Cheeky move that. I’ll tinker a bit with that to see what I can do where it leads me to.

Just checking the news before I go to bed. This could be fun, the German press are publishing the full leaked investigation into Qatar….
