Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 3
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 3 Welcome to Captain Picks Gameweek 3! Well the past weekend was split between those that capped Aguero and those that did not, which one were you? Depending on what you did, you either had a great Sunday and weekend, or you were crying into your pint cursing that last-minute swap from the Argentine to a certain Egyptian. The top three choices for the armban...
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW3
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW3 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW3. So the maiden Harry and Lloyd’s prediciton competition has ended and now H&L is a fully fledged staple on the FF247 site. The past weekend saw a lot of strange results and not many correct predicitons but we still had a clear winner and that was Offaly Martin with 16 points. Closely behind him wa...
MLS Tips Fantasy Major League Soccer GW26
It was a disappointing start to the double gameweek (DGW) for some teams and, consequently, for some fantasy managers too. A few big names completely failed to deliver on the promise of the DGW (Zlatan 3pts, Valeri 4pts) and were easily outshone and outscored by SGW counterparts (J Martinez 10pts, Lodeiro 13pts). It wasn’t all DGW doom and gloom though. Anybody picking Rooney (19pts) or the LAFC b...
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 3
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 3 Welcome to Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 3. GW2 FPL 2018/19 may now forever more be remembered as Jamie Jackson Week. There’s a fair to middling chance that prior to about 4.25pm on Friday many (most) of you will never have even heard of Jamie Jackson before. Yeah sure enough, he’s got a hallowed ‘blue tick’ on his t...
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 2
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 2 None of that Friday night nonsense this week. Our game-week kicks off at lunchtime on Saturday with Cardiff hosting Newcastle, a game that has relegation 6 pointer written all over it. We then have four games at the traditional kick off time of 3pm. Everton entertain Southampton. It’s a battle of the animals at The King Power stadium as the Foxes host Wo...
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW2
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW2 Well, well, well – 82 points scored in GW1 with 37 of those points coming from our 3 playing defenders. Robertson, Shaw and Mendy all performed heroically with bonus points flying all over the place! Richarlison’s brace was also most welcome while Salah chipped in with his customary goal. Firmino provided an assist but with Liverpool scoring four we may have ex...
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 2
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 2 Hello everyone, it’s great to be back writing for another season – though, with this being the earliest in August I have written an article, it’s definitely been the hardest to write! So, looking back to Gameweek 1 and there is a bit of a correlation between the most owned players and points scored, in that hardly any of the favourites among the FPL competitors wen...
A Midsummer Night’s Fantasy … (Football Musings)
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 2 Two phrases I’ve learned and hated my entire adult life – ‘think outside the box’ and ‘introspect’. As though it mattered much, since my own life was involved in finance and statistics, where you actually look inside ‘boxes’ (and not those of the nice kind mind you) and introspecting gets you called a lackadaisical weirdo. We left that to the office shrink. But a n...
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 2
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 2 Welcome to Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 2. And as quickly as that, it is all over. All the optimism pumped into you on these boards over the past few weeks has been shattered, all that boasting to your mates that they may as well just pay you the league winner’s money before the season starts has backfired, and all that time picking hidden...
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW2
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW2 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW2. You have probably noticed the change in name and that Rosco and I are no longer known as Barry and Paul. The reason for this name change is out of respect for one of Britain’s greatest comedians, Barry Chuckle who unfortunately passed away last week. This meant we needed a new duo and there are many o...
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 1
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 1 And we are off!! Another season of bitter FPL disappointment for most gets rolling when Leicester travels to Old Trafford to take on Jose’s happy warriors. That Friday night fixture is followed by six more on Saturday. A lunch time affair sees Newcastle and Spurs face off in the battle of who spent the least this transfer window. That is followed b...
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW1
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW1 We’re back! Last season was something of a disappointment as we finished with our lowest rank since we first introduced the site team back in 2014/15. We don’t set ourselves any goals at the beginning of each season but at the very least we want to beat last season’s final rank. Hang on, is that a goal?! Just like the rest of you we’ve spent five minutes hours ...
