FF247 Site Team News Gameweek 4 Fool me once Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW4 Once again, we teetered on the knife edge between a good week and a bad one. Six of our starting XI failed to deliver, with Murillo leading the flop parade — just a single point to his name. Naughty step. Muppet. Salah only narrowly avoided joining him, scraping to 3pts thanks to a clean-sheet bonus. Slim pickings, but we’ll take it. That was the bad. The good? Porro nailed his DEFCON duties for a heroic 4pts, Cucurella banked a clean sheet for 6pts, and Ndiaye added a vital 7pts. But the real story was João Pedro. Going in without a standout captaincy option felt like a gamble, but the former Brighton man delivered: another goal, maximum bonus, and 18pts with the armband. Phew. Crisis averted. Of course, the sting...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News Gameweek 2 Welcome to FF247 Site Team News Gameweek 2 Nothing to see here, folks Like, almost literally nothing. Unless you like car crashes, in which case read on… Three of our eleven players delivered. Cucurella (8), Porro (6) and Salah as Captain (16). The rest got 3 points or less. Brilliant. That was bloody it. 47 points vs the average of 54 and a GW rank of 6.3m. 184th in Bonaire, Saint Eustatius and Saba, which just about says it all. We have 0.0m in the bank (helpful) and 1 free transfer to use ahead of GW2. Let’s go see what was decided…. Our GW2 Transfer(s) – SAVED We have decided to simply have a bit of a word, and a bit of a change up in personnel in terms of the starting 11. No cups of tea thrown just yet. We shall sit on our Free Transfer and ...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News Gameweek1 Our 2024/25 Finished Overall Rank and Recent History Okay so we did not have a great season last year but Rosco already told you guys about all that in our Preseason Site Team article from two weeks ago so I won’t go back over it. You can see our teams history and the finishing rank in the image above. You can see we have had a very up and down few seasons with last year being our worst season EVER! That kind of means that the less said, the better. Initial set up We showed you all two weeks ago how we could go with a Bench Boost or not and showed you two drafts with minimal changes depending on which way we decided to go. Things have slightly changed in the FPL landscape since that article with what looks like a playing 4.0 keeper in Dubravka and a mul...[Read More]

How Smartphones Transformed Gambling Forever Steve Jobs probably did not anticipate that by presenting the first iPhone in 2007, he would cause such a radical change in the betting world, which only got triggered over time. Fast-forward to 2025, the impact of smartphones on gambling is massive, their influence on betting processes being only the tip of the iceberg. The mobile gambling sector is now worth 127 billion dollars, with a yearly growth rate of 11.4%, which has been going on for the last few years. Meteoric Rise of Mobile Gambling The revolution is highlighted by some very telling statistics. As per the most recent sector study by Morgan Stanley, the use of mobile technology has gone to 67% of the total worldwide online gambling activity at casinos like Onluck, which is an enormou...[Read More]

How to Safe Online Money Transfers The digital revolution has drastically changed the way we manage our money, but this has not come without its vulnerabilities. The most recent report from the Federal Trade Commission shows that online financial scams have led to losses of over $2.8 billion, which equals the previous year’s figure multiplied by 1.47. In addition, fraud related to deposits is the leading cause of the digital financial crimes, accounting for almost 23% of all the reported cases. So, consumers must be familiar with the ways in which they can protect themselves. According to recent cybersecurity data from CyberEdge, 78% of the organizations have been compromised by at least one cyberattack. The financial platforms are the primary targets, the report also states. At the same t...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News Pre-season Training We’re Back, Baby – FF247 25/26 Season Kick-Off! New season, same chaos – but this time with slightly more structure. After last year’s car crash of a Site Team performance, we’ve dusted ourselves off and we’re ready to give it another go. Let’s start with a bit of housekeeping, shall we? A New Dawn (Sort Of) You may have noticed things were a little quieter on the site last season. Truth is, getting our writers to actually write became harder than getting Darwin Nunez to stay onside. And when we did manage to publish something, comment volumes were lower than Southamptons’s final goal tally (26 for those interested). So this season, we’re scaling things back. Fewer articles, more focus, and hopefully more of you on site when it counts. Simple. Peopl...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW38 One last hurrah Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW38 So here we are then, the last gameweek at the end of what has been a topsy turvy season. One where we’ve had to shift our expectations rather sharpish too, as the finish this time last year of 4,238 – our best ever – is all but a distant memory. Now we’ll be happy to finish in the top 1 million, as we sit over 100,000 places beyond that. Our Gameweek 37 Result Such a hoped trajectory to maybe have six figures as a rank come the end of the season is a dream that has been bolstered by our performance in Gameweek 37. Starting off with the heroics of Ezri Konsa with his goal and clean sheet to make 15 points, we were also carried along to a big green arrow by the 10 points of Wissa, eight from Mar...[Read More]

How to Exploit Early Betting Lines Before the Market Corrects The best betting opportunities last about 20 minutes. That’s the window between when sportsbooks post early lines and when professional bettors hammer them into efficient pricing. Miss that window, and you’re stuck with razor-thin margins like everyone else. I learned this lesson after consistently arriving late to obvious value bets. I’d spot a line that looked off, spend an hour researching, then find it had moved three points by the time I wanted to bet. Once I understood early line movement and developed a system for exploiting it, my win rate jumped dramatically. Here’s how to beat the market before it beats you. For reliable early line access, Sky Sports Betting provides over 20 years of industry ex...[Read More]
