Basic Guidelines
-
You must recruit a 24 man squad (21 Players (Forwards, Midfielders or Defenders) and 3 Goalkeepers)
  • Top 3:
  • 6 players must be from England - Premier League
  • 6 players must be from Italy - Serie A
  • 6 players must be from Spain - Primera Division

  • -
  • 6 players must be from any of the following 12 leagues:
  • Next Top 6:
  • France - Ligue 1
  • Germany - Bundesliga
  • Holland - Casino Eredivisie
  • Portugal - I Liga
  • Turkey - Super League
  • Belgium - Jupiler League
  • Alternate 6:
  • Finland - Veikkausliiga
  • Romania - Divizia A
  • Japan - J-League
  • Switzerland - Super League
  • Croatia - HNL
  • Mexico - Interliga

  • -
    Notes:
  • You cannot pick more than one GK from one league.
  • Participants must pick GK's from only the "Top 3" and "Next Top 6" leagues.
  • Participants can only pick players from the "Alternate 6" leagues and not GK's. This rule is in place because the alternate 6 leagues sometimes may not have enough information for the stat trackers.
  • This is a monthly pool so theres no need to stress yourself out as I know some of you do.
  • Participants who fail to enter their picks between the deadline and end of the first month will suffer a no sub no transfer penalty for the first month.
  • Newcomers may join the DL Championship at anytime after the 1st month during the season without suffering a penalty however they will start off in Division 2.
  • Max of 32 teams or min of 8 teams is required for this pool.
  • If there are more than 32 participants who want to join they will be placed on a waiting list until next season and they will take the place of whoever finishes in the last few positions from the previous season.
  • The participant who wins the DL Championship has the first pick on which Club they want to represent followed by the 2nd place participant etc. from the previous season. New participants will be last in line. Participants must pick a legitimate and official club team that is able to qualify for a First Division place in the teams home country.

  • -
    When the Champions League & UEFA Cup tournaments begin you will be adjusting your 24 man squad to a 12 man squad (10 Players (Forwards, Midfielders or Defenders) and 2 Goalkeepers)
  • In the Champions League and UEFA Cup you must choose one of your 10 players to be a captain. No GK's can be captain. Captains will receive double points.
  • The UEFA Cup champion from the previous season will automatically qualify and be able to compete in the Champions League no matter where they finish in the standings in the current season. This will prevent participants from purposely finishing in the UEFA Cup group and winning it every year. Instead if they win they will have to face tough competitors in the Champions League the following season.

  • -
    Please submit your picks in the following format:
  • League - Club - Firstname Lastname
  • Example:
  • Italy - AC Milan - Alessandro Nesta

  • -
  • For Goalkeepers add a GK after the country with a - and before the club without a - please.
  • Example:
  • Scotland - GK Glasgow Rangers - Stefan Klos

  • -
    Later when you want to substitute or transfer use the following format:
  • OUT League - Club - Firstname Lastname
  • IN League - Club - Firstname Lastname
  • Example:
  • OUT Italy - AC Milan - Alessandro Nesta
  • IN Italy - Parma - Alberto Gilardino

  • -
  • Transfers or Subs cannot be made while a player is in the middle of playing a game.
  • Please provide first and last name of player along with proper team names and capital letters to begin first and last names.
  • I want to be able to cut and paste your team and make the site look decent and understandable.
  • Not only does it save time for me but it also helps with stat tracking as if you spell the name wrong you might miss out on the points that player scored.
  • -1 point for every one incorrect sub or transfer format submission.
  • -1 point and -1 sub for every two incorrect sub or transfer format submission.
