FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW31
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW31 The bare necessities… A relatively successful week, but one that somehow felt it should have been so much more… Our decision to captain Salah over Vardy cost us 11 valuable points, but we are at least grateful that we brought the latter in at all after his 16 point haul. Our score of 56 was alright – it was better than the average of 48 and s...
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 31
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 31 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 31. Into the business end of the season we go and this round is very much the famine before the feast, with what is widely thought to be two double gameweeks on the horizon – 32 and, most likely, 35 – with the shortened Gameweek 33 stuck in the middle, presenting great opportunities for the chips you have left. Various pre...
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 31
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 31 Welcome to Captain Picks Gameweek 31. Also known as BGW31 (that’s Blank Game-Week 31 to those not au fait with FPL acronyms). In last season’s equivalent to BGW31, weeks of planning and chip strategy became largely moot thanks to four goals from the dominant captain pick Mo Salah. Salah netted his owners 29 points – 58 if you captained him (an...
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 31
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 31 Welcome to Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 31. Agreeing to write an article for Gameweek 31 is making me feel a little bit like the Birmingham City ‘fan’ who punched Jack Grealish on Sunday afternoon; a mug. As I set about planning for this article, two issues became clear early on: (1) we won’t even know the full set Gameweek 32 fixtures un...
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW31
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW31 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW31. Looking over some of the scorelines from GW30 it’s a surprise anyone scored any points. It started off in a strange fashion with an unlikely 1-2 victory for Brighton over Palace and it just got stranger from there on in. Newcastle came back from 0-2 down to claim an unexpected 3-2 victory, whilst do...
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 30
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 30 Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 30. We are back with a full and normal game-week, at least in terms of one that begins on a Saturday and has no more or less than all 10 teams featuring in it, don’t get used to it though; it’s one of the few remaining ones that will. Palace and Brighton kick us off at Saturday lunchtime t...
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW30
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW30 Paying the penalty… The upside to selecting penalty takers is obvious, the downside is a -2 if they ever miss one. To have one do so is bad luck, to have two doing so leaves you looking around for dead black cats in your rear view mirror. Twice. Pogba and Aubameyang combined for a -2 for us, not quite what you expect for a near combined £19m outlay and 2...
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW30
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW30 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW30. This week saw a bit more normalcy return to the Premier League with wins for City, Chelsea and United. Spurs and Arsenal played out a rather controversial North London Derby and Liverpool and Everton bored the head off everyone in the Merseyside Derby. Well that is all behind us now and we move on to the ...
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 29
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 29 Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 29. Back so soon? Life as an FPL manager can be brutal! First world problems and all that, eh?! Three deadlines in the space of 9 days can take its toll mentally, especially when you have to try and factor in the upcoming blanks and doubles, and trying to do so by playing a bit of a guessing game at t...
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW29
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW29 No Kun do… When the week begins with the ever consistent Jimenez blanking against bottom club Huddersfield and then Doherty conceding a clean sheet in the dying minutes you could be forgiven for thinking it would be another one of those weeks. The truth is, it very nearly was. It took another attacking full back to pull us back from the brink really, as ...
Most Humiliating European Defeats for English Clubs
Most Humiliating European Defeats for English Clubs Arsenal recently tasted embarrassment when they lost their Round of 32 First Leg tie against BATE Borisov, 1-0. The Belarussian side sit a mere 120th in the Euro Club Index, while the Gooners occupy 15th. Can Arsenal turn it around in the second leg? You’ll find the latest odds, here: https://www.betfair.com/exchange/plus/football/competition/200...
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 28
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 28 Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 28. Back so soon? Hopefully these random deadlines will be playing havoc with your mini-league rivals. And equally, hopefully not with you. Before we move on then, it’s probably worth noting that the next deadline is on Saturday, a mere 3 1/2 days from now. That one will be less of a surprise, b...
