[edit] Armand's Fantasy Football
Armand's Fantasy Football is a free fantasy football website I have created.
There have been two previous competitions, one currently in progress, and one scheduled for next summer (2008). The format has changed depending on the competition.
The main competition is the English Premier League, but major international tournaments also have a league.
[edit] Premiership: 2005/06
Five entrants started in the first AFF Season.
The format was in a 4-3-3 formation with a £60,000,000 budget with a maximum of three players from one team. Premiership, FA Cup, League Cup and Community Shield all counted to score points.
There were 20 transfers allowed - with a maximum of 4 per month.
The final table looked as follows:
| Pos | Manager | Team Name | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Glenn Bullock | Armand One + Ten More | 2557 |
| 2 | Dane Rossiter | FC Thun | 2522 |
| 3 | Scott Bickerton | Crewe Reds | 2269 |
| 4 | David Stone | Manchester Phoenix | 1949 |
| 5 | Steve Begg | Steve's Stars | 1059 |
[edit] World Cup 2006
The 2006 World Cup took place after the 2005/06 season. There were eight participants.
The format stayed as a 4-3-3, with only one person from each team during the stages, then five transfers allowed after the group stages with two players from each team allowed. There was no money-limit.
The final table looked like this:
| Pos | Manager | Team Name | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Liam Goran-Eriksson | Liam's World Allstars | 309 |
| 2 | Glenn Bullock | Armand One + Ten More | 301 |
| 3 | Oli Rose | THFC Allstars | 290 |
| 4 | Mike Butt | Alty Allstarz | 268 |
| 5 | Scott Bickerton | Crewe Reds | 262 |
| = | Ruairi Criscuolo | F.C Hammer.............Stop Hammertime | 262 |
| 7 | Dane Rossiter | Dane's Worldbeaters | 260 |
| 8 | Steve Begg | Steve's Stars | 174 |

After a one-year hiatus, AFF returned with a complete re-vamp to the rules.
Now, there is a 4-4-2 formation, and like the World Cup, there was no budget, but only one player per team allowed. Only Premiership matches scored points.
There are currently six participants. The table (as at 20 October) is as follows:
| Pos | Manager | Team Name | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Jack Rossiter | Jacks Army | 472 |
| 2 | Dane Rossiter | Dane's Allstars | 380 |
| 3 | Amie Fletcher | Lulu Utd | 363 |
| 4 | Jenny Young | Cerritos 11'ers | 301 |
| 5 | Glenn Bullock | Armand One + Ten More | 242 |
| 5 | Mike Butt | Alty Allstars | 209 |
The current table can be found on the official website
There are five transfers allowed, but only in January 2008.
New rules for point-scoring were allocated, including a goal scored from inside the player's own half.
The current point-allocation[1] are;
| Plays full match | 3 points |
| Plays partial match | 1 point |
| Striker scores | 5 points |
| Midfielder scores | 8 points |
| Goalkeeper or defender scores | 10 points |
| Player in any position scoring from behind half-way line | Normal points x5 |
| Assist | 3 points |
| Yellow card | -3 points |
| Two yellow cards | -7 points |
| Straight red card | -10 points |
| Team wins | 3 points |
| Clean sheet (Goalkeepers and defenders playing full match) | 5 points |
| Clean sheet (Goalkeepers and defenders only playing partial match) | 2 points |
| Goal conceeded | -1 point |
| Penalty save | 5 points |
[edit] Euro 2008
| This section contains information about a future sporting event. It contains information of a speculative nature and the content may change as the event approaches and more information becomes available. For confirmed, up-to-date information, visit the official website |
AFF will return in the summer for Euro 2008.
[edit] Likely rules
The rules for AFF: Euro 2008 will most probably be as follows:
- 4-4-2 formation
- No budget
- One player per team for the group stages,
- But two players per team for the Second Round onwards.
- Transfers of four players between the end of the Group Stage and the beginning of the Second Round.
- Point-allocation will probably stay the same as in the 2007/08 Premiership season - maybe with a few minor changes.
