Making a review about your club would be a bad idea imo, because then it wouldn't be anonymous anymore.

If you are doing this, you should post your entry on EA as well. Depending on what mine is, I might do so.

Did you see the thing between me and BLP? We're still negotiating over a subject that we cna choose.

Yes I think I'll post my first article over there then

And yes I saw it

IIBentII39 wrote:Anyone can organise it I'm fairly new so fair enough
it doesn't matter, just want to get it started tbh, should be good

Yeah we should do it pretty soon, I like the idea of an open subject, like about a certain player

We're currently in negotiations over the subject through PM's.

Maybe something like: All time favourite player, any league, any time period?

yeah would be good, but as you've said before it would be better if it's a very open subject.
All-time fave player would give it away as well though, if there's an article about Henry or Bergkamp it's kind of obvious that it would be me or another Arsenal fan.

Yeah thats fair enough, what are the ideas then for the topic so far?

What about, how football has changed since the introduction of the Premier League?

Yeah that could work

IIBentII39 wrote:Yeah that could work

We just need people to agree with it now.

Why not, I'm in.

If it's about football every week then my face =

hmm, I wouldn't really like to write about that.
How about we give different options, like

1. How football has changed since the introduction of the PL

2. Article about a player

3. Controversial things in football (goal-line-technology for example)

Then people just pick the best one from a poll, the week's winner gets something like 1000 points

Tbh Ill have a go at anything, why not put


Player Article
League Article
International Article
Contreversial Article

All in a poll, leave for an hour, post this thread in the chat thread so it gets noticed, and then whichever is the most popular say its International, by Tuesday we all PM an Article about an International team of our choice to a certain person, they post them all we vote till Friday, then we pick a new topic and carry on.....

yeah would be a good idea imo

Premier League is too enclusive. I dont follow it, so tbh it should be a season preview for your club like this:
Predicted finish
Dream season
Nightmare season

Just like FourFourTwo.

I'm interested in this.

What about doing what Kaka11|LFC did for the first week of his competition and just make it Football in general to give us a good start.

Maybe doing the season review of your team would be a good start, something familiar to you and you'll know what to write about. Of course in the case of me seeing as I'm one of the only Villa fans here you'll know its me, but seeing as its the first one then maybe it doesn't really matter?

I doesn't matter from my point of view but it seems to have received some bad comments from other members so I'm not sure. I think my best bet is to make the first theme just Football and then people can have their own take on it.

So Football in general everyone? I'd like to get it started as soon as possible.

I feel that it would let everyone show what they can really do and show us your own creativity.

this.

If we do a season prediction for our team it will be too easy to guess who quite a few of the people are.

Me.

NOTE: PLEASE EVERYONE MAKE THE SUBJECT 'WRITING COMPETITION'

It will make it easier for me to view them all.

Thanks everyone & good luck.

Put my name down!

I'll do this if I can be bothered.

Don't be surprised if I don't enter though.

If your name is not on the members participating list then please notify me. Thanks.

So has this started now?

It has, Feel free to drop me a PM any time.

Can we write anything we want to as long as it relates to football then? I'm confused.

Yes you may, I would like to see how creative everyone can be.

I am about as creative as Titus Bramble. So don't expect much from me.

Anything is possible when you put your mind to it. Good Luck.
