FF247 Site Team News GW6 Welcome to FF247 Site Team News GW6 I feel we’ve turned point dodging into an art form. We finished on 42 points against an average of 48, and one look at the team makes it fairly easy to work out where things went wrong. Pascal Groß (14pts) was once again the saviour for many, and unlike GW2 we actually started him this time. A 12pt return from captain Haaland meant that 26 of our 42pts came from just two players. The other nine managed just 16pts between them: Two. Two. One. One. Two. Two. Two. Two. Two. Quite impressive really. Not a single return between them, with our entire defence combining for a magnificent six points. Konsa and Calafiori even threw in a couple of one-pointers for good measure. Of course, there were points in our squad. Plenty of them. They...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW5 Bench Pain Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW5 After the misery of the previous week, Gameweek 4 finally decided to be nice to us. 93 points. A full 24 points above the Gameweek average of 69, and a Gameweek rank of 595,963. We’ll take that. Very happily. The big decision was handing the armband to João Pedro, and for once our captain actually behaved like a captain. His 12 points became 24, immediately giving the week a very healthy foundation. And unlike some previous weeks, he actually had some help! Groß was the star of the supporting cast with a massive 17 points, while Calvert-Lewin chipped in with 10 and Rogers added another 8. Kinsky contributed 7, while Kadıoğlu and Calafiori both returned 6, meaning there were points appearing all over the pitch rather than us...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW4 Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW4 GW3 – Triple Captain. Red Arrow. Obviously. Despite playing our Triple Captain, we somehow still ended the week staring at a red arrow. To be fair, Haaland did his part. 9 points wasn’t quite the monster haul we’d dreamed of when deploying the chip, but it’s also not the dreaded blank that can so easily accompany a Single Gameweek Triple Captain. Tripled to 27, we’ll take it. The problem was, quite literally, everyone else. Not a single return from the other ten players. Szoboszlai and Cherki scraped together a clean-sheet point apiece, Verbruggen chipped in with a save point, and that was about as exciting as it got. Our defence proudly served up a trio of two-pointers, while three yellow cards gave us the considerably less impressiv...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW3 Boom! Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW3 A lazy Boom! As it turns out. When questioned why he’d made no changes in terms of transfers, line-up or captain, last weeks writer who wishes to remain anonymous (let’s call him Rosco…), admitted he was just being lazy. Let’s also just call him humble then, for fairness. Given Haaland’s Friday endeavours, the Bruno (C) was carrying a certain weight of pressure. We all know the rest. 111 was comfortably 30 above the average, and pumped us up 1.7m places to about 525k overall. Or 5% as it is now reported, up from 25%. And that was with 19 points left on the bench. After using the BB last week to the tune of just 10. Our Gameweek 2 Result We have 0.0m in the bank and 2 free transfers to use ahead of GW3. Let’s go see what was deci...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW2 Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW2 It wasn’t exactly a Bench Boost for the ages, but when only three quarters of said bench actually turned up, we were up against it from the start. Our captain blanked, but then so did pretty much everyone else’s, so we’ll call that a draw. Five returns from ten outfield players and, looking at some of the carnage elsewhere, we count ourselves fortunate. João Pedro’s 11 points did most of the heavy lifting, with Calafiori’s 9 and Szoboszlai’s 8 doing their bit to drag us towards respectability. Meanwhile, our supposedly boosted bench contributed a magnificent 10 points between four players — six of those from the goalkeeper and one of them not even making it onto the pitch. Money well spent. All in all, not the worst start, but certain...[Read More]

Introduction Modern European football is as much a global financial industry as it is a sporting competition. Premier League clubs operate with multi-hundred-million-pound budgets, competing in an arms race for top-tier coaching staff, world-class training facilities, and elite playing talent. To fund these astronomical costs while remaining compliant with Financial Fair Play (FFP) and Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR), football clubs have had to diversify their commercial revenues. Central to this commercial evolution is the strategic partnership between professional football clubs and global gaming and entertainment brands. The Commercial Reality of Modern Football Finance A football club’s revenue traditionally rests on three main pillars: broadcasting rights, matchday ...[Read More]

Fantasy Cricket Tips for Smarter Picks and Captains Fantasy cricket improves when every selection has a defined reason: a player’s role, likely opportunity, match conditions and place in the confirmed XI. Rather than chasing the biggest names or copying a popular team, build a balanced lineup around players who can contribute in more than one way, then use captaincy and differential choices to match the type of contest you are entering. Start with the scoring system and team rules Different fantasy platforms use different scoring systems, player categories, credit limits and team-combination rules. Runs, wickets and catches commonly earn points, while strike rate and economy rate can also affect a player’s total. Captain and vice-captain multipliers are particularly important; many formats...[Read More]

1win Mines: Changing Mines Between Rounds Changing the number of mines in 1win Mines means adjusting the setup between rounds within the same gaming session. For players in Armenia, the distinction is straightforward: a session includes consecutive rounds, while each round begins with its own selected settings. Changing settings prepares the next round for play. Once a round starts, its mine count stays fixed. Players reveal covered cells and decide whether to continue or collect an available payout. They cannot remove mines after opening a safe cell or add extra mines to increase that round’s multiplier. The current round must finish before another configuration applies. The flexible grid in 1win Mines includes separate settings for board size and mine count. Players choose the grid dimen...[Read More]

The Hundred Fantasy Cricket: Rules, Points and Team Tips The Hundred Fantasy Cricket game rewards managers who build a balanced 14-player squad across the men’s and women’s competitions, then make smart changes between fixture blocks. Runs, wickets, catches and confirmed line-ups all contribute to scores, while captaincy can dramatically increase a player’s value. The most effective approach is to understand the scoring system first, then select players with clear roles and reliable chances to feature. How The Hundred Fantasy game is structured For the 2026 edition, each manager selected a squad of 14 players from across The Hundred’s men’s and women’s competitions. The squad had to include seven men and seven women, creating a format that requires attention to both competitions rather tha...[Read More]
