The idea of this game is to pick players from the world of football, one at a time, until everyone has a team of 11 players.

* The selection order is dependent on who signs up first. For example, presume the following letters are people; A, B, C, D, E and F all sign up, in that order, and so the order of picks will be - A, B, C, D, E, F, F, E, D, C, B, A, A, B, C, D etc. etc. so picks are allocated with fairness.
* When you've made your pick, PM the person next on the list to tell them it's their turn. That person will then have a maximum of 24 hours to make their pick.
* When you pick a player you should explain why you're picking that player.
* Players will be assessed only on their playing time since 1992, so therefore, Maradona for example would be a poor choice.
* There will be a separate thread to this for people to pick their players. This thread will be used for sign-ups and discussion however.
* Max no. of Gks in a team = 1. Max no. of defenders in a team = 5. Max no. of midfielders in a team = 5. Max no. of strikers in a team = 3. Consider this when picking players to suit your formation.
* If someone for instance picks Paul McShane, then no one else can choose him. A spreadsheet will be created so you know which players are taken.
* Once completed, teams will be drawn against one another, and polls will be made to see which team the majority feel would win a game if teams squared up. Depending on how many are interested, it could take a few weeks before completion.

If you're interested in taking part then please post here. If you don't think you'll have enough time or won't be on regularly enough then please don't sign up :)

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

Added Kem.

No discussion of potential names please as we don't want anyone being swayed into anything and it doesn't do yourself any favours either. There are many top bracket players so even if you sign up last you will be able to pick a majestic player to start off with.

Hahaha two can play at that game GB, I have a team in my mind already and I think the player you're thinking of wouldn't feature in my side anyway. I have my side pictured in my head already :lol:

Ant, there's no way you can picture your side at this point. You can picture your first choice pic providing GB or myself don't steal him but the rest of your pics are totally dependent on what other people choose. ie. your 11th pic will probably be around the 150th of the entire game, meaning that it's likely over 100 better players would've been taken at that point :)

I know which players aren't going to be picked, the ones that don't spring to your mind, and I'll take them. I know 4 players I'll get who nobody will pick before me and they will be the basis of my side.
