Superman up front. The Rancor in mid-field. Gandalf in goal. Ok, that’s not how fantasy football works, but if you’re a film fan and a football fan and you like the idea of embarrassing the VODzilla.co team with your superior strategical soccer skills, have we got the thing for you: Presenting… The VODzilla.co Fantasy Football League!

If you don’t know how it works, you pick your dream team of football players from the English Premier League and you get points depending on how well they perform on the pitch. Every week, you can make one free transfer – otherwise it costs you points to swap players. It’s simple, it’s fun (if you like football) and it’s easy. Unless, like our not-very-esteemed editor, Ivan, you happen to suck at Fantasy Football.

If you do know how it works, sign up at http://fantasy.premierleague.com and then enter the following code to join our league:

The deadline’s 11.30am Saturday 16th August, which means you have SEVEN DAYS LEFT TO HUMILIATE US ALL.

If you couldn’t care less about how it works, The League’s on Netflix. It’s a sitcom about friends who participate in – you guessed it – a fantasy football league. It’s American football rather than actual English football, but it’s really funny. (Here’s a review.)

And, if you’ve signed up, prepare for 10 months of this each Saturday morning:
