Calling all soccer heads, stat nerds, and Anglophiles: the English Premier League season begins in just over three weeks. This makes you as happy as Bolo Zenden during a 3-0 win at Stamford Bridge, and it also means you have three weeks to build your fantasy team.

If you're like me, by now your MLS fantasy team is probably a shambles; if you've even bothered to keep up with it, you're probably still a hundred points or more behind that bastard Camm (for example). So turn your short attention span toward the land of Excalibur and fish'n'chips, and get your Fantasy Premier League on!

Once you've created a team, you'll need a league to join. mao and Nevets have both got leagues going (mao's is a classic table and Nevets' is a head-to-head style, both of which are very much fun to play), and now there's a Timbers Army league too. If you've played in the SCUSA Free League during the past few years, you'll already be enrolled in the TA league (I've maintained the SCUSA league and decided to change the name this season to accurately reflect the fact that ULTRAS NO SCUSA BRO! Or something like that.).

Create your team here: http://fantasy.premierleague.com; then use the code 58432-22317 to join the Timbers Army EPL fantasy league; and follow the links above to join mao's and Nevets' leagues (they're all on the same site and it's easy to enter your team in multiple leagues).
