Just over 2 days to get your entries in...

With 2 days 17 hours and 16 minutes to go as I write this to the kick-off of Euro 2008 time is running out for you to get your entries in for the Fantasy Football competitions that I found so far. Here is a quick rundown on the five competitions that have YOYWYW Leagues set up and how to get yourself in on the action...

McDonalds Fantasy Football at UEFA.com
Having run a warm up competition with the recent international friendly matches the UEFA.com competition made the bizarre decision that everyone had to register again for the main event. With over 100,000 players playing in the friendly game it would've made much more sense to allow players to simply pick their final team and get on with it, but hey ho, it's their ball and this is the way they're playing with it.
The prizes for this competition have been announced and include a JVC home theatre system, adidas Europass match balls, official strips from the participating teams and more.

Daily Telegraph Euro 2008 Fantasy Football
With over £25,000 in prizes, the Daily Telegraph competition, one of the most popular Fantasy Football competitions around is one of the few newspapers to show an interest in Euro 2008 by running a competition. Surprisingly, the red-tops have chosen to give this tourney a miss, leaving a lot of regular players searching for another game to get stuck into and though the high-brow Telegraph may not provide the tits and reading that some of the red-top readers might require, the Fantasy game may well fill the void.

Metro FREE Euro 2008 Fantasy Football
Newspaper the Metro has come up with a visually, not the prettiest competition, but one that provides a £15,000 prize pool with a £10,000 cheque for the winner. There's not much too this competition and transfers are limited, so choose wisely, but there's a decent prize pool on offer and with this game being FREE it's well worth an entry.

Fantasy League- Classic Euro 2008

Join the Yodeller's Friends & Enemies League by registering here, pick your team then go to your team managers page. Once there go to the F&E section on the left hand side and enter the pin number 62 in the 'join existing league' section.

Yahoo/Eurosport Fantasy Football
One of the late entries to the FF stakes was the joint effort between Yahoo and Eurosport which is FREE to enter and gives players the chance to win unknown prizes. With a pretty complex scoring system this is a competition for the real boffins, but it's FREE, so give it a go anyway, especially if you already have a Yahoo account as it makes registering nice and easy.
