Fantasy Football Fixtures Game-week 9 At some point in our lives, we’ve all lent out something precious to someone we trust, with tragic consequences. I recall with particular regret allowing a neighbour to test-drive my newly acquired pedal go-kart, only to helplessly watch him shatter the sound barrier, the wall at the bottom of our cul-de-sac and, ultimately, my go-kart. So it was with im...
Fantasy Football FF247 Team Game-week 8 Four straight green arrows, a spot inside the highly coveted 2 million (yes, at this stage a ranking inside 2 million is coveted) was finally on the cards for this underperforming side.
