Our club is now owned by hundreds of posters on an obscure internet message board that fantasizes about a shirtless Stuart Holden.

I love the Internet so much.

Inspired by the comments regarding the success of Countless Managers FC, I wanted to check out all newcomers and the continuity of ownership.

2012-2013:

The inaugural season had Atom-Z as the commish, and I was the vice commish. I do not know where that spreadsheet is as it is not mine. We also played 37 matches?

Mick, Wait, and I are all the only three to play all five seasons. DB10 played and won, but he did not resurface until his 2016-2017 tGOATpionship appearance. He is the only owner to not try to defend his title.

2013-2014:

The league entered the modern era as I took over as commish, and it found the continuity it has today. We typically only need to replace 1-2 owners per year at most (my biggest turnover was four owners after this season).

GC, War, and BPG joined the fold and GC finished third as a newcomer. The Mick wins his first title.

2014-2015:

rdw wins the title in his second season of his three year stint. Tigerstark and etm joined the league and played ever since. No newcomer finishes higher than seventh.

2015-2016:

The league has completely stabilized as we return all ten members for year four. The Mick wins his second title with an all-time best 84 points (DB got 81 points in 37 matches).

2016-2017:

Out goes rdw and Sticky and in comes Col Reb and Jackwoods. Col Reb finishes in third despite going ghost, which ties for the best ever finish of a new team.

Years in the TD Fantasy Premier League of active members (not counting this year):
5 years - The Mick (two titles), Wait (one title), VKC ( )
4 years - WSE, BPG, GC
3 years - etm, Tigerstark
1 year - Jackwoods, DB10 (one title and one season in tGOATpionship)
Fresh meat - arse

Dammit, I really wanted him. I think he was a mid on here last year, right?

Gylfi Sigurdsson
Swansea
Midfielder

Roberto Firmino

I was really debating him or Sergio, but stuck to Sergio, which means Jesus will start a majority of the games this season.

Hard to not pick Aguero at 10. That is the lowest he has gone in our league by far. He was picked third last year after putting up 184 and falls to tenth after 175. Of course, Jesus could change things.

Last four years:
2016 - 1.3
2015 - 1.2
2014 - 1.4
2013 - 1.6

Point totals in the Prem:
2016 - 175
2015 - 184
2014 - 216
2013 - 156
2012 - 121
2011 - 211

LSC Angry Boys select:
F Jamie Vardy (LEI)

GC is assembling the most on-brand team we've ever seen.

I need permission to change my team name on the league site.

In case you missed this in the transfer thread, I can't rob you of Roque's famous celebrity likeness

With their 2nd pick in the 2017 draft Roque's Stache and the Dodgy Flappers select:


Mesut Özil, MF, Ars

We welcome Mesut's bug-eyed weird lookin arse to the side and hope that his new, far less handsome than his other French striker can up his assist total this year
