Hi everyone! Has anyone played this game before? Its basically an online version of Football Manager which takes about 20mins a week of your time to play and is great craic if you get the right people. You basically manager your own made up team against other managers. I was thinking of setting up a league for YBIG, the way it works is there is 3 games a week and you set tactics and the match is simulated. So its not time consuming at all www.xperteleven.com Anyone interested?

Yeah I played it before. I lost interest after a few months because most managers left it but it is good craic. I will play if a ybig league is set up. |

If you can get a good base of people who play it, the leagues become great banter with the press releases and compeitions to win the league! If we can get 5-6 people from here we could start with a small league for the 1st season? Ill set up a League and see how many we can get sure!
