Advantages: Play in leagues against your friends, It doesn't cost anything, You could be at the finals

Disadvantages: You need to spend time online away from dooyoo to keep an eye on your picks, Real managers might not pick your players to start

England to win the World Cup was quite a fantasy and they probably won't get to the final in Portugal...... but you could be there if you play fantasy football to win..... maybe even sell David Beckham your tickets.

The Euro 2004 qualifiers are on the agenda for Saturday Oct 12th and Wednesday Oct 16th.

For those of you aren't aware, uefa.com run a Prediction Game and a Fantasy Football game.

For those of you who like the CYKI-style team management game, the Euro 2004 Fantasy Football Challenge will appeal to you.

There are a few dfferences though:

Players are valued depening on the ranking of their country (5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 Million).

You can have up to 4 players from any one country but the total value of your squad may not exceed 45m.

You have to pick a 12 player squad and unlimited transfers can be made at no cost.

As the game is sponsored by McDonald's.... the winner gets a year's supply of Big Macs!

Seriously,

The full winner's package is certainly impressive. The one-week trip for two people includes:

Two standard return flights to Portugal from a European destination;

Two tickets to the EURO2004™ final, private chauffeur to and from the game, accommodation (four nights in Estoril and three nights in central Lisbon);

Transfers to and from airport and hotels in Portugal;

Official merchandise;

€2004 in spending money.

While the main prize and all top prizes are open only to European residents, alternative prizes will be made available to game players from outside Europe
