Now the disappointment of Englands disastrous World Cup campaign is out of the way, the thoughts of the numerous UK football supporters will now switch to the forthcoming Premier League football campaign, which starts in just 10 days time, on the August 14th, when Champions League qualifiers Tottenham take on moneybags City in the lunchtime kick-off.

For many, now is the time to be contemplating your Fantasy Football League Team, as it's now the time for the yearly task of selecting potential matchwinners under your leadership to beat all the other aspiring Sir Alex's.

Fantasy Leagues now appear for all different events, most of them connected with sport, and the prospect of playing against your mates or work associates has never been more popular. By far the most played Fantasy League though, is the Fantasy League for the Premier Football League, with magazines, papers and internet sites all attempting to secure your place in their league, all of them claiming to be the best league going.

It's hard to imagine the first fantasy football league that appeared anywhere was 19 years ago with the classic fantasy league. It is now actually entering it's 20th year but still appears to go from strength to strength, being professionally operated, and offering substantial cash prizes (up to £75,000 this year) and offers great value for money at £10 for an entry. Naturally it has built up a loyal following, who join each and every year and the ever popular Friends and Enemies League continues to rise in popularity.

With the Transfer market not really getting off the ground yet, with few major transfers going through, it is quite possible your fantasy football team you pick now may need major changes fast before the start of the season. Luckily, within Fantasy League Classic rules, you are allowed unlimited transfers till kick-off on the 14th August, so hopefully by then you will have amassed that dream team to try and earn your place as the top manger in Fantasy Football 2010.
