Captain Picks Fantasy Football Game-week 26 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16 The last time yours truly constructed a Captains article was back in Game-week 12.

Fantasy Football FF247 Team Game-week 26 ‘You’re s**t and you know you are, you’re s**t and you know are’ was heard echoing around the streets near to the FF247 offices as we arrived for work on Monday morning. Who was singing it? We’re not sure, but we have our suspicions! As you’ve probably guessed or in all likelihood you’ve come to assume at this stage we got our customary red arrow, our 13th ...
Captain Picks Fantasy Football Game-week 25 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16 As midnight chimes in Tuesday morning, I switch the TV off, reducing Sky Sports News to naught but static electricity.

This time last year we were looking at N...

Fantasy football Trends From The Top – GW25 Welcome to this week’s edition of Trends From the Top. For this week’s publication, I sit at my computer reviewing and reflecting upon EPL results while my family and the rest of America is engrossed in the 4th quarter of the Superbowl. I know some folks may think I’m odd but personally, I am indeed more curious to understand Firmino’s rise to succ...
