Below you will find the results from gameweek’s 17 through 20, hopefully by next week we should be fully up to date! GW17 – Nice and straightforward to kick-off preceding’s. All three of our winners correctly guessed the FGS, those 5 points were enough for fotisbaxes to take third with 18pts, Daisy2002 to take second with 19pts and with a massive 22pts for Leprechaun was more than enough to seal the top spot on the podium. GW18 – No FGS this week. RafflesHotspur and SomH3i duked it out for third with 12pts each, pjlill took second with 14pts and with 15pts our GW17 winner was Kruzcampo.

FF247 Site Team News GW23
FF247 Site Team News GW23 In our defence, your honour… Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW23 Our Gameweek 22 Result Fair to say our defence pulled us out of a bit of a hole this week, providing 35 out of our 51 points. The ‘superstars’ in front of them did bugger all. In fact, Dorgu with 15 nearly matched their entire 16 on his own. Which would have been great. Only we’d stuffed him 2nd on our bench. Clearly we weren’t exactly expecting a goal, a clean sheet and 3 bonus points from him! Even without him we jumped about 400k this week. Probably would have been double that with him. We have 0.2 in the bank and 2 free transfers to use ahead of GW23. Let’s go see what was decided…. Our G23 Transfer(s) First suggestion up was a simple switch of Man City personnel. Pep seems content to build his lates...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW23
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW23 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW23 Our resident numbers man aka James Simmo is otherwise engaged this week, he assures us that the missing results are coming, but for now we wait! So with that there is not a lot to say, other than get your predictions in and as ever good luck! THIS WEEK’S COMPETITION… scoring couldn’t be much simpler: • Correct Score —> 3 points; • Correct Result —> 1 point; and • Correct First Goalscorer of the Gameweek —> 5 points. To clarify, this is who you think will score the first goal of the entire Gameweek, not just in any given match that you choose to pick yourself! Points above are awarded on an ‘either / or’ basis, so you’ll either score 3 points for a Correct Score or just 1 point for a Cor...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat GW22
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat GW22 Fantasy Football Live Match Chat GW22 Back to some semblance of reality with a GW that begins on a Saturday and ends within some acceptable timescale of it beginning, and with at least a few days grace before the next one kicks off. Saturday itself sees the bulk of the games. Man Utd and Man City kick us off in style at 12.30pm. No early drinking for the Mancs, yeah right… 3pm then sees all of Chelsea vs Brentford, Leeds vs Fulham, Liverpool vs Burnley, Spurs vs West Ham and Sunderland vs Crystal Palace. The late(r) one is Forest vs Arsenal at 5.30pm. Just the two on Sunday then with Wolves vs Newcastle at 2pm and Villa vs Everton at 4.30pm. Which leaves Brighton vs Bournemouth on Monday to conclude GW22. The games in full… Keep track of al...[Read More]
Social Casino Trends 2026: Community Features Drive Player Engagement
Digital Community Standards: The Rise of Social Connectivity in Modern Gaming Recent analytics show that the “social casino” segment alone is now worth roughly $10 billion, proving that players crave more than just a win—they want to be part of a community. Statistics from 2026 industry reports reveal that 62% of players are more likely to return to a site if it features active chat rooms or collaborative play options. For a long time, the digital casino experience felt cold and isolated. Today, however, a new generation of players—led by the 25–34 age group—views gaming as a social hobby similar to streaming a movie or playing a team-based video game. These users expect the same “social feedback” they get from Instagram or TikTok. By integrating live feeds, shared rewards and competitive ...[Read More]
FF247 Site Team News GW22
FF247 Site Team News GW22 Back in our box Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW22 Just when we thought things were looking up, we once more find ourselves on the wrong side of lady luck. We rolled our transfer and it looked like the smart decision, our 39pts (9 below average) tell a different story. Last week we were the beneficiaries of Thiaw’s 17pts, this week it felt a little moot as he duly delivered us a -1. Ouch. Keane was looking like he was on for another bumper score; an early goal got us all excited the red card that later followed not so much. Still those 5pts look colossal next to his black and white compatriot. Not a lot else to write home about. Dorgu picked up and assist for 5pts, Gabriel a rare clean sheet sans bonus points for 6pts and the same situation for captain Haaland. Our o...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW22
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW22 Hello and welcome back to what will be the first of some mammoth result articles for the H&L tower crew. We haven’t provided you with results for quite some time and actually we shocked ourselves with how long it had been. We do have SOME results for you this week but unfortunately not all of them. Let me explain as to why. Our site scraping software that Simmo created to speed up the result counting had to be rewritten. Simmo worked long hours to rewrite it all and was knackered. We don’t want to be charged for any slave labour laws so we let him rest. We do have results from GW12-16 so 5 weeks worth of results for you all finally! Let’s get straight to it. No fluff just pure podium places now. GW12 – 1st place = Ivan the Terrible on 15 points...[Read More]
Beyond Fantasy Football: How FPL Fans Stay Connected to Every Match
FPL fans track every match because each point depends on timing, planning, and bold calls. Champions League Fantasy brings in extra rules, so captain picks and subs matter twice as much. Since line-ups drop early and transfers reset round by round, engagement stays high from kickoff to deadline. The ways fans stay connected now stretch far beyond fantasy scores and player rankings. Watching matches while predicting outcomes Some FPL fans stay connected to matches because they enjoy testing predictions while watching the action unfold. Since line-ups are revealed before kickoff, fans use that timing to make smarter player choices and tactical swaps. This also supports betting, because strong picks often rely on up-to-date information. The connection between fantasy formats and predictions r...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News GW17-21 Christmas Special
FF247 Site Team News GW17-21 Christmas Special Ho ho hell yeah, points!! Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW17 The next few weeks feel like a real chance for us to finally kick-start our season — a festive resurrection, if you will. We’re now lined up to play three chips across the next three gameweeks, and with a sprinkling of Christmas luck, we could head into the holidays looking far more like our former selves. Or at least less like a team that’s been on the naughty list since August. This week, Lady Luck came dressed as Santa and actually delivered, but let’s face it, now more than ever, this game is all about luck. Planning, watching matches, researching stats? Largely pointless. Dave from accounts is top of the league, has declared himself an FPL savant, and delivers a weekly carol dedica...[Read More]
