Bonus Balls: Who Have You Picked Up?

Bonus Balls: Will You Get Lucky?

​

A scheme intiated by the Barbados Football Association called 'Bonus Balls' has been announced. The BFA have paid for the import of 18 of the best free agents from around the world. In order to make sure the league is of the highest quality, the chosen teams will recieve their players for free.

The teams that will be able to pick the players are the teams that are either 1) In the bottom 3 positions in the league or 2) The 3 teams with the least amount of transfers. There are 18 players to pick from and each chosen team will be allowed 3 picks. The chosen players will be randomized and teams will not know who they have been awarded untill after they have made their picks. No team may be chosen twice, so if there is a team that has the least transfers and is in the bottom 3, they will be placed into the bottom 3 category, with the next team chosen based firstly on how many players they have brought in and then on league position.

The BFA have bought this scheme in to ensure the league is played with the highest quality footballers around the globe and that every team is competitive in the league.

damn, that also means that i woun't sign fabregas, casillas and arshavin

 

[Ollie_H]

No, no ones players will get taken from the VPL teams, it's only players from around the world without current clubs.

 

[harrisb]

hang on, how can you decide who these are, i thought you said it was all random.

 

[Ollie_H]

No, I know who the players are, but what I meant is as to which number means which player.

 

[The Spin]

Oh, I might get a pick with this - I haven't had many signings

Let's hope!

 

[Ollie_H]

You've actually had more signing than 6 other teams, and the same amount as another two

 

[treva]

Which Teams Get The Choice of Balls?​

After an eventful round 6, many of the weakers sides will have been looking forward to this announcement all week. Many will be dissapointed they don't get this opportunity but the teams who do recieve it will be elated and ecstatic, so without any further beating around the bush, let's announce the teams.

The team which have qualified for the draw to being in the bottom 3 are;
Melbourne FC, Starz United and FC Costra Nostra

Now this is where it gets slightly compliacted, FC Costra Nostra are currently the only team to have signed no players, but after already qualifying from the 1st group that leaves an emtpy space, Melbourne and Starz United are also the next joint teams which leaves the 3 other teams all joint on 1 transfer to pick up their places in the group; the teams are;

Livingston FC...................

Mumbai United.............. and

Waverley FC.


These 6 teams must no proceed to pick 3 numbers between 1 -18 (this includes 18) Teams may not pick a number that has already been picked, the players you have randomly selected will be posted after all respective owners have picked the numbers.
