Soccerlens Fantasy Football 07/08 – Wrap-up, Winners and Prizes
Congratulations to Ilango for winning the inaugural Soccerlens Fantasy Football league. He overtook Spiral Architect (one of the earlier SL readers and a leader in the final months of the season), pushing him into 2nd place on the final day. Nig (Nicholas Aldam from FCB News) came in 3rd.
You can check the full table here (prize and next season info is below).
I’d like to thank the 200+ members who took part in the fantasy football league – we gave you guys only a couple of days of head start to sign up and register but a lot of people joined up and that helped give us some depth in numbers and produced an interesting ‘title race’ (certainly the big four won’t be set in stone next year, will they?) with different players taking the top spot at different times.
A special thanks to Subside Sports for sponsoring the fantasy football league, and to SquadGod for managing it. Hopefully they’ll be around next season and we’ll have more time to promote it, so we can hit 500 members and make it more interesting with many more prizes.
Ah yes, the big prize. As I said at the start of the season, the big prize at stake was USD 500, so, Ilango, do send me an email through this form so I can have the money sent your way.
To everyone else, thank you for playing and I hope you’ll join us next season. We plan to make this much bigger, with more coverage and more prizes (we had planned to give away a few shirts this season but that didn’t work out as expected).
If you’re interested in taking part next season, go here and sign up!

Great competition, really enjoyed it. Going into the last week with four teams in with a chance was really exciting. Congratulations Ilango. I’ll be in again next season
May 15th, 2008 @ 02:23Same here. I really enjoyed this (apart from the slide down the table at the end obviously). I thought I had this nailed down a month ago so I left it unattended almost. Shame on me, but congrats on the win Ilango and thanks for the good run to the rest of you guys. See you again next season.
May 15th, 2008 @ 16:01‘I’d like to thank the academy…’ dammit wrong speech!
Ah well. As much as i hate losing at the final hurdle (similar to a team that i support
), congrats are in order for Ilango. Well played.
Was a great season, & i look forward to playing this again next season if its still on.
May 17th, 2008 @ 15:03Ahmed – thanks for putting together a great game and group, yours is one of our showcases for the customised group design and thanks to all your Soccelens members for playing and contributing to a great first season.
We’re looking forward to next season with some of the technical bumps we experienced this last one neatly ironed out
