Fantasy Football Fixtures Game-week 30
Fantasy Football Fixtures Game-week 30 Well that was a bit more like it wasn’t it? Game-week 29 saw a wave of points flood our sorry assed fantasy teams and give us a much needed shot in the arm, or in the arse, whatever you prefer, and actually brought a smile or two from even the most disgusted of fantasy managers.

We couldn’t even beat an average of 35 and thus dropped 86k places to an overall rank of 906,635. Nothing has gone right and frankly none of us will be sad to wave this season farewell. Or pi...
