Fantasy Football League Website Down

Saturday, August 13th, 2011

fantasy football premier league website down

As the start of the season is less than 1/2 a day away now, there are many fantasy football team mangers biting thier nails this very second as the fantasy.premierleague.com website is currently down and has been experiencing problems earlier Friday 12th August afternoon.

The new look facelift to the official barclays premier league fantasy football website governed by the official barclays premiership organisers have brought in EA games to add a touch of creative flair into the site, now we see 3D graphics and sharper resolutions when managing teams.

We are pretty sure that the overwhelming surges in site traffic that has been sent to the servers of fantasy.premierleague.com website down due to the copious amounts of data needed to be sent to and from the new look site has crippled the sub-domain server-there probably looking at hard disk failure or simply disk full with the increase in popularity for the site. Server admins need to get this sorted super soon.

As we are all fellow managers we’re all now clucking at this point with the last minute managerial changes that need to be made pending the postponment of the Tottenham v Everton game which was originally scheduled for this afternoon, many a manager need to swap out Tottenham and Everton players to avoid a bad start and points drop early season.

To be fair, i’ve been quite lucky with the amount of players that are in my team so it shouldn’t impact my points score too much should the site be unavailable come tomorrow morning (sorry to rub it in for those less fortunate). We just hope y’all know that it’s 11:30 GMT that the last changes can be submitted by.

Inside knowledge when fantasy.premierleague.com will be back up!

Our top tip, for those keener than usual, don’t leave it until about 10:00 am to make your changes as the server will probably go down yet again with all the traffic backed up since earlier yesterday-to be super certain that you’ll get your changes in before it all comes crashing down is approximatey 4am GMT, we’ve had inside knowledge from the server admin team that this is the ETA they will be back up and running. They’ve done this to cope with all the traffic coming from east asia as they’re all mad for it-probably Ji Sung Parks family-haha.

Attempting to visit the fantasy mobile site

There are talks of people having success with the mobile site for the premier league fantasy football working, this is a myth, the m.fantasy.premierleague.com site is a separate subdomain but the databases and files that are associated with the mobile site all run from the subdomain which is down so there’s no joy there either. Put your laptops, tablets and iPhones in hibernate with the page open lads-keep trying.

Adriano drink problem for Brazil

Saturday, April 3rd, 2010

That’s right sports fans, we’re not talking bull, nor are we wasted at the time of writing this post.

It’s now official that the Brazilian is out of control (not quite as bizerk as Edmundo and the long list of mental brazillians) according the the Guardian.co.uk. Yes we are aware that it’s not on the beeb (bbc.co.uk) and that it’s not quite as a good a reference as can be but it’s a broadsheet we can rely on for factual information.

Now we have ascertained the news that Adriano is a piss head, his club director of Flamengo stated to a local radio station; ‘the reason Adriano is temporarily out of the team is because he began drinking again’.

How quality is that? I reckon the endorsment deals from Alcohol and Sprirt groups should come rolling through now that this news is ‘proper’. We’ve made a Carlsberg Advert that we think should be shown to the world and encorporated some sexy girls (proper footy team) into the pic.

“When he starts drinking, he can’t stop,” Braz told Rádio Bandeirantes. “He had overcome this but it started again because of this personal situation he is going through.”

Personal situation they say…… i think the booze is his secret source for his super power shots.

Aidie you are the man.

X Factor Finalists Lineup

X Factor Finalists Lineup

Its getting to the later stages in the competition now and most of the favourites are still in, even the Twins, John and Edward. As the competition continues to hot up, we take a look at how some of the contestants from the finals may line up at the local sunday league pitches

1 GK- Jamie Archer- The Tall rock star with his cool looks and aggressive voice is perfect for the goalkeeper role. With large reach and good handling, Jamie is the natural choice.

2 CD- Graziella Affinita- Has shown her fantastic team player skills in the newly formed Miss Frank and has nailed down her spot in the team.

3 CD- Shanice Davis- With a great work rate and strength in abundance Shanice is the main sweeper in the team. With a playing style similar to Gattusso, she should give ample of protection to the goal.

4 CD- Shar Alexander (C)- Shar lines up at the heart of the team with Graziella and as captain provides plenty of encouragement to the rest of the team with her vocal and leadership skills.

5 WB- John- John is a perect choice for left wing back. The natural left footer has shown plenty of pace and is not scared to run at people. Also has a very long throw like Rory Delap.

6 WB- Edward- The other half of the famous duet secures his place on the opposite wing. Also a left footer but ca use his right very effectivley also and is confident at beating a man in the final third of the pitch.

7 CM- Joe Mcelderry- The skillfull youngster from up north occupies the number 7 shirt. Similar to Joe Cole in playing style he provides spark and creativity to the team. He can also do loads of kick ups.

8 CM- Olly Murs- The tough tackling central midfielder can cut out a pass and also reads the game very well with his sneaky eyes. With good distribution and positioning he is important to the team.

9 CM- Lloyd Daniels- The pretty boy of the team is mainly there for the female fans and to sell shirts. Good in the air, Lloyd also provides and ariel threat and is the set piece taker for the team.

10 ST- Rachael Adedeji- Racheal has great legs and they are very fast too. With her fantastic surname to match the on the field performances, Adedeji was always first choice upfront. Great striker of a football.

11 ST- Danyl Johnson- The main goal scorer for the team, Danyl is always in the right place. With finishing like his look-alike Eduardo, Danyl is a threat to any defense and is also the teams penalty taker.

On the edge 5-Aside Team

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

Here is a 5-Aside team for controversial celebs who are often living on the edge for one reason or another.

GK- David Hasselhoff- The American stopper has had a bad few years in the limelight. Since his days as a sex symbol on Baywatch he has struggled to cope with personal problems and has been caught ‘wasted’ on various occasions, most notably at heathrow airport.

DEF- George Michael- The very talented recording artist slots in well at left side of the defense. The very popular singer has had a successfull career but in more recent years has been caught by the police and the press doing numerous acts of badness

DEF- Kerry Katona- The ex- Atommic Kitten star is now the face of Iceland’s food adverts. Kerry has struggled recently and was leathered on live TV show ‘This Morning’. Kerry blamed this on her ‘Bi-Polar’ disorder? Anyway, the stocky defensive leader fits in on the right side of defense and brings many qualities to this team.

MID- Brian Harvey- The tough tackling defensive midfielder is also a former pop star. Brian; once of boyband East 17 is the lynchpin of our team and breaks up the play. The famous singer has had a few problems over the years and recently was accused of trying to kill himself with his own car. Of course as he later explained, it ws the hot jacket patatoes that had caused the problem. Being to hot to eat, upon mass consumption he fell out of the open door and then underneath the car as he pressed the accellerator.

MID- Paul Gascoigne- As the only player in the team with international experience, Paul is probbably the most important player. The gifted playmaker inspires the rest of the team and improves morale with his practical jokes. Paul is unfortunatley very much on the edge and is fighting many personal battles. Recently caught tring to get into a pub with his own house keys in the morning.

ATT- Britney Spears- In sunday league, Britney plays off the front man but we have converted her playing style for the short game. The talented pop star is deadly infront of goal, comparable with Inzaghi. Often thrust into the limelight, Britney has struggled with the rise in her popularity and has had recent breakdowns. The press never leave her alone and most notable moment was shaving head a couple of years ago.

Heres a really sexy picture of Britney Spears in her prime for all you fans. Britney must be one of the most gorgeous women of all time!!!

Eastenders v Coronation Street

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

Coronation StreetEastenders

This is not just the stuff of legend and fantasy, this game actually sometimes happens! I know because I was privileged to watch a match between Enders and Corrie at Edgely Park once. I only remember a few instances from the match. 1- Kevin Webster is so small! 2- Les Battersby was a knob and got himself sent off! And 3- Bepe DeMarco’s goaty is one of the greatest pieces of facial hair the world has ever seen!

But in all seriousness if these two great institutions of British TV were to hire a Power League pitch in neutral ground (somewhere near Walsall for instance), who would play for each team and more importantly who would win!

As well as this battle, probably more important is which team has the fittest cheer leaders. We will also be looking at this.

EASTENDERS

GK- Minty (Big, fat and well fills the goal well)

DEF- Jack Branning (Tall, hard and uncompromising)

MID- Phil Mitchell (Well TV’s tough man, although a beer or three at half time could spell disaster)

MID- Ricky Butcher (Bit of a wet blanket but a good strong left foot)

FOR- Max Branning (Despite being an ugly ginger, he always seems to score!)

SUB- Ian Beal (Mr Versatility himself, will lend a hand to all aspects the game)

SUB- Bradley Branning (More a tactical player, like Teddy Sheringham a good supersub)

MANAGER- Peggy Mitchell (Similar to Sir Alex, has a great Hairdryer when she gets going)

CHEER LEADERS- Dawn Swann, Chelsea Fox, Ronnie Mitchell, Roxie Mitchell and Stacey Slater

CORONATION STREET

GK- Kirk Sutherland (Lanky and agile, a good shot stopper)

DEF- Gary Windass (Tough a not afraid of anyone)

MID- Kevin Wesbster (Little midfield Dynamo)

MID- Jason Grimshaw (The heart and soul of the team and a genuwine prospect, great at building attacks)

FOR- Chesney Battersby (Young, fast and inventive, should run rings around the opposition)

SUB- Peter Barlow (Unlike Enders this alcoholic can take a back seat in the bar until called upon)

SUB- Ashly Peacock (Speaks like a girl but plays like Scholes)

MANAGER- Dev Alahan (Runs a few businesses and is friends with many of the team, a real players coach)

CHEER LEADERS- Tina McIntyre, Michelle Connor, Rosie Webster, Maria Connor and Kelly Crabtree

Off those line ups I have to say that I fancy the skill, flair and youth of Corrie to come good against the tough and ready to mix it up East London team!

Dawn EastendersTina McIntyre

As far as the eye candy goes I think Eastenders beat Corrie, even though Tina McIntyre is probably the best of all of them! The thought of having both the Mitchell sisters is too much to bear and they have to win, plus Dawn is a real show stopper!
