| Happy League 2020/21 Week 1 (of 34) - Deadline Saturday 12th September 12.30 22:23 - Aug 21 with 2647 views | mfb_cufc |
A warm welcome to all members old and new, as the Happy League is about to start its 18th season. In fact after the longest season ever, the Champions League Final in the 17th season has only just finished. Congratulations goes to thrillseeker for winning that. Many thanks to wessex_exile for administrating this competition, especially after the tight schedule he had to deal with recently.
This season we have a one off competition the Barside Pete Memorial Cup. The Happy League President mrhappy has generously put up the prize, and will be administrating this knockout competition, that is in memory of Pete, who was one of the original members of the Happy League. This competition is limited to the first 16 to apply, and those spaces have now been taken. Sorry if you missed out. Details of the first round draw can be found on the Barside Pete Memorial Cup thread.
As for the other Happy League competitions. There is no need to register for the coming season, as any member who took part last season, will automatically be registered for this season. Just post your predictions to confirm your registration. For any new members thinking about joining, it is a free to enter competition with prizes. You can join just by posting you predictions for Week 1 on this thread.
The four competitions are:-
The Happy League There are two divisions, with twelve members in the Premier, and all other members (including newcomers) in Division One. Three to be relegated from the Premier, and three to be promoted from Division One (the top two automatically, and one from the play-offs).
The season will start on Saturday 12th September, and will run for 34 weeks (280 games). This is 4 weeks less than normal, due to the season starting later. There will be 15 x 6 game weeks, and 19 x 10 game weeks. That is more 10 game guest weeks than usual, so when you log in please check to see if you have any messages, as you could be the next chosen guest. After last seasons promotion and relegation the two leagues as they stand at the moment are (In alphabetical order):-
The Happy Cup This will start as a league format, with four groups playing 30 games. These will be ten fixtures from each of the FA Cup 1st, 2nd and 3rd rounds. The top two from each group will qualify for the quarter-finals, where it will become a knockout tournament. There will be more details on this competition in a separate thread later.
The Champions League The qualification for this competition will be decided on 2nd January (Week 17). Last seasons winner thrillseeker will qualify automatically, the other eleven qualifiers will be the highest point scorers over the two divisions on the aforementioned date. The competition will start on 16th February, when the Champions League knockout stage begins. Again there will be more details on this competition on a separate thread at a later date, to be administrated by wessex_exile.
Charity Shield This is an end of season competition for the top three in the Premier, and the Happy Cup winner. If the Happy Cup winner finishes in the top three of the Premier, then the Happy Cup runner-up will qualify.
A reminder of a rule, mainly for any newcomers. That is anybody failing to post their predictions four weeks in a row, will be dismissed from all Happy League competitions. There is no need for this to happen. If you are not going to be around to post your predictions any week, just let me know in advance what default score you require, e.g. all 1-0's, 2-1's etc. Anybody failing to post anything at all will receive no points for that week.
Week 1 Fixtures - Deadline Saturday 12th September 12.30. We start the season with 10 games involving teams that were either promoted or relegated last season. SINCE I ORIGINALLY POSTED THESE FIXTURES THE WYCOMBE v ROTHERHAM GAME HAS BEEN MOVED TO 12.30

Result of the early kick-off:-
WYCOMBE 0 ROTHERHAM 1
Rotherham get a 92nd minute winner. That was good news for thrillseeker as he was the only one to get this spot-on, and another 7 had the outcome. | |

I will rely on mfb to let his spreadsheet do the magic, but I do believe I've only gone and got myself zero points this week. Not sure I could have done that if I'd tried!  |  | | |

It's easier than you think, even on a 10 game week .  |  | | |
