UEFA Champions League Fantasy Football 2020/21 Hello everyone and welcome to UEFA Champions League Fantasy Football 2020/21. It may feel like only a week or so since the final of the last one was played but we are back at it on Tuesday with the start of the group stages once more. The purpose of this article is to alert you to the fact that it is starting again, give you the appropriate league cod...
FPL Fixtures Gameweek 35 It looks like we finally get to write about some upcoming fixtures that we know will actually happen and won’t be changed on a whim. DGW35 was announced last week and along with it a blank-ish GW36. As ever with these things they are not mutually exclusive and as such the excitement of bringing in assets from Arsenal, Leicester, Chelsea and Man United for a bumper do...
Grab, Avoid or Bore Off – FW32 DGW Edition We felt that any usual stand alone article may be somewhat redundant this week, given the ‘obviousness’ of the Spurs DGW; do we really need to tell you that Spurs have a double this week and that Palace blank (that’s the Fixtures article done), or that your captain will 80% be Kane or 20% Son (Capos article done), or that you should probably b...
FPL Fixtures Gameweek 29 A dog is not just for Christmas A fixtures article in a week that contains just four of them may seem a bit odd, but please just bear with us. The intention here is to analyse those very fixtures themselves, but also, and possibly more importantly, to then have a look at what those teams offer beyond this week. Aka ‘are they worth all the hassle’. We shall then...
FPL Fixtures Gameweek 24 (and 25 and beyond…) A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… I used to write the Fixtures articles on both here and FFC* before us (*’Fantasy Football Cheat’ for those of a younger era). Week in and week out, for years on end, and whilst it was always a pleasure it could sometimes become monotonous. But then once in a while a Double Game-Week (D...
FPL Captain Picks Gameweek 22 The (sh*t) show must go on… Having spirited in the essence of Guy Sanchez last week I’ll turn to Freddie for inspiration this week. Having viewed the team sheets this past weekend, and the subsequent comments on site about the absolute carnage which followed I’d forgive a good many for simply throwing the towel in. It is the oddest of odd seasons, an...
FPL Captain Picks Gameweek 21 The spirit of Guy Sanchez For those unaccustomed to said spirit it usually entails a meandering of the recent hand Guy has been dealt by life (as he knows it). Oft it’s not a good one, but often it’s a funny one. We’ve gone with him from Dayquil days to 12 hour work days, from Covid scares to Everton woes. But why did I immediately think of Guy when ...
FPL Fixtures Gameweek 18 No sh*t, Sherlock Writing this so early may yet prove to be folly, and no doubt the second it is published the PL will announce a circuit breaker and B(lank)GW18 will become B(leak)GW18 and we shall be back into the territory of adding ‘+’ symbols to GW’s again. But just in case we somehow avoid the above doomsday scenario we have decided to break the upc...
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions Christmas Bumper Edition GW’s 14 to 17 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions Christmas Bumper Edition GW’s 14 to 17 H&L veterans will be well accustomed to our Christmas routine here, but for any newbies, or indeed any vets with a short memory, this is how we will roll for the next few weeks: This article covers all GW...
FPL Fixtures Gameweek 9 Half-term report Ok, so we aren’t even a quarter of the way through yet but in England they call it ‘half-term’ in October (albeit it is now November but who is keeping count anymore), and they do it again in February, go figure. So with that sort of clever math we are calling it that too. Rather than waffle on about a few select teams we have decided to h...
Fantasy Football Legends Who are the fantasy football legends of the game? Which player managed to get 300+ virtual football league points and who scored 100 points or more in nine different seasons? Whether you have a league with friends, colleagues or your local team, nobody who enters a virtual football league doesn’t want to be crowned the season’s champion. Football opinions are fierce and ty...

And with a new season comes another chance for all the budding managers out there to select their Fantasy Football squads. Whether it’s a league amongst family,...
