Elite League Rules

General Rules


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

League Structure
The league is made up of 10 teams. You play everyone twice, ie 18 games.

There will also be a Knockout Cup that will run alongside the league.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Matches
League prediction days will be Wednesday, 9am through to Thursday 11pm. Managers must post their line ups and subs on the prediction page by Tuesday 11pm. Alternatively they must have the lineup on their team page.

Every manager needs to predict on ALL matches apart from your own. There will be prediction bonuses each week as follows:

- You get £1 mil just scores, scores
- You get £5 mil for scores, scorers and predictions
- You get no cash if you fail to submit your predictions.
Scores are calculated by averaging all of the predictions, and adding one goal for every three winning predictions.

Cup Games will be announced nearer the time

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your Squad Page
You will need the following:

1. A list of your full squad is needed. If you Sign someone then Add them to your list - If you Sell someone make sure you Remove them.
2. Transfers In and Out section.
3. Your budget, please make sure this is updated and please do not cheat.
4. Your starting line up if you wish
5. Please keep your squad page tidy.

There will be a temporary window where the squad size can be up to 28 between foreigns and releases. With regards to starting squads, if a player is out on loan they cannot be included. You can include players in on loan though.

Before you submit your team on week 1, please make sure that you have a MAX squad of 25.
If there are more...there will be a random draw and the places chosen will be taken away and in foreigns.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Foreign Transfers
To make foreign transfers, place a price on the foreign bidding page based on the players value on transfermarkt.com. You must have the cash in your budget to bid. I or managers selected will then let you know if your bid has been accepted or rejected.

You can bid for a maximum of ONE player per post, and you cannot bid for another player until you have signed or withdrawn your bid for that player.

Bids made before 14.00, can be confirmed if accepted at 20.00. Bids after 14.00 can be confirmed at 20.00 the next day.

Once your bid has been accepted, this must be then recorded and updated on the transfer centre and your team page.

Transfers must be confirmed before Tuesday 11pm for the player to be illegable to play that gameweek.

Every now and again bids will come in from outside clubs for one of your players. Any bid will be put on the foreign transfer page and will be on there for a limited time only. It is up to you check the page and decide if the bid is acceptable or not. If you wish to accept the bid, put a comment on the transfer page and a confirmation in.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Domestic Transfers
Domestic transfers must be confirmed by both managers on each others team page. One must then confirm the transfer on the confirmation page. This saves confusion between managers.

Loans are permitted and the terms are to be agreed between the managers in question. The minimum loan period is 2 weeks.

If any deals are grossly biased to one side I reserve the right to cancel them.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Releasing players
If you want to release players that you are struggling to sell to other teams, you can release them for half their current value on the released players page.

Simply list the players you wish to release, and I will get back to you with prices. Please then let me know if you accept or reject the prices, and confirm the accepted releases on the confirmation page.

If you wish to buy a released player, please use the transfermarkt website as reference on values.

Bids before 4pm will be responded to at 8pm, bids after 4pm will be responded to the next day at lunch

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Injuries
Each month you will be given four injuries;

1 for one week
1 for two weeks
1 for three weeks
1 for four weeks

Make sure you update your squad to reflect these injuries. When you transfer injured players their injury becomes void and they are available to play for the acquiring side. If you purchase one of your originally injured players within the injured period, that player becomes injured again

You cant loan your injured player and loan them back as that is cheating so beware.
