Afternoon gents
Amazingly, it's been a full year (and a bit) since our last World Soccer competition ('Big Trouble In Little China'), so it's definitely time for another.
With the MLS starting this weekend (although we'll most likely miss the first round of fixtures unless you all respond very quickly), I've decided the latest competition will feature our neighbours from across the pond.
Same rules as ever. If you want to play, just respond to this thread picking a number from 1 to 11. You will then be allocated one team from the 'Eastern' section and one team from the 'Western' section respectively. The West actually has 12 teams, so we will have one unallocated side.
Once the fixtures start, it will be a straight knock-out competition. Any matches between teams still in the competition, which result in a draw, will see both teams stay in. If you lose, you're out. After the first round of fixtures, you only need to draw against eliminated teams to stay in.
For any newcomers, it will make sense as we go along. Promise.
So, if you want to play, simply pick a number from 1 to 11 (please pay attention to which numbers have already been picked).
Thanks
Sandy
