Did you know your computer is broadcasting an IP address?????? Seriously it really doesn't matter. I'd argue it's way more nerdy to put down your ~internet name~ in a field asking for your forename/surname.

but I want my winner's cheque made out to greazeball dickholePsybro posted:In terms of the teams that have come up, Bellamy seems a steal, but there's people here that paid a lot more attention to the Championship last year than me. Is he still likely to perform? I would also appreciate a "spot the value" type post from someone familiar with the promoted teams.

Depending on how much you care, Fantasy Football Scout tend to do a decent set of articles prior to each season about the players to keep an eye on each category. So far they've done budget goalies and defenders. Impression I get is that there aren't any great value obvious picks like a Ricky Lambert coming up this time, just possibly some decent players for cheap.

This year's grand strategy: pick all the best midfielders and hope that they do enough to drag the rest of the team to glory! Mignolet; Nastasic, Dawson, Diakite; Bale, Mata, Hazard, Walcott; Rodriguez, Anelka, Benteke. (Lewis, Turner, Baker, Kacaniklic)

Campbell(7 in 12 since joining in jan) and Cornelius(18 in 34 for previous club) at Cardiff aren't bad shouts for 5.5m, though cardiff do have bad fixtures for the first few games. You could do worse than Anelka.

 TRPH2H2 is full up son!Next person make a new 'un. Also is Reina actually going to get sold? I've got Mignolet in my team, but if he's not first choice I guess I'll go for Begovic.

Any suggestions on keepers? I was going to go with De Gea, but you never know how United might be at the start of the season if Moyes changes a lot. Vorm's probably still a good shout, too. Worried about Begovic now that Hughes has taken over at Stoke. They probably won't be as solid at the back as under Pulis. There's just so many managerial changes.

Get ready for the Chemical Snails   The league's pretty barren of good, affordable strikers this year. No hurry to get van Persie since at 14m his price isn't going to rise much past that. Look at big Vito in goal. Do me proud son
