FF247 Site Team News GW15 Regrets, we’ve had a few Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW15 We are in a rush this week, as we all are. Turns out we are in more of a rush than we actually thought we were, but we shall come onto that later. As for GW14, we only have an interim score at this point in time, that being 79. It looks like Kerkez will bring home another 2, so let’s call it at 81. As for rank, we expect that will bring a green arrow, as our 59 points as of last night had bumped us up about 750k spots. With a few different decisions this week, and the luxury of hindsight, it could have been a whole lot better. Palmer won our internal Captain Poll by a narrow margin of 3 to 2 over Salah. As it was they got us 32, reversed it could have been 43. We left Mykolenko on the bench for a...[Read More]

FF247 Site Team News Gameweek 14 Stranded Welcome to FF247 Site Team Gameweek 14 Our Gameweek 13 Result Another red arrow… 3 in a row that’s now 8 of those in total and just the 4 green ones. Not good! A score of 59 was 1 below the average and saw us plunge even further to 4.2m odd, a drop of another 300k or so. Looking for some positives, we were mocked on the chat (by one of our own committee!) for having a ‘power midfield’. Granted, there was no Saka but the rest got 43 between them, which was a good portion of our overall total. The only one who didn’t bring home any bacon was Mbeumo, and Brentford hit 4, with no involvement from him. Just plain unlucky. Other than Kerkez (7) the rest were pretty woeful. We left Larsen stranded on the bench with 11. Which ...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW14 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW14 It’s a quick turnaround from GW13 to GW14 as we head into silly season (aka the most wonderful time of the year!). With that, we will be delaying results until our GW16 article, where we will hopefully wrap up a hattrick of results covering GW13,14 and 15. There’s not much more to say on that other than stay sharp, get your predictions in and as always, 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...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat GW13 Fantasy Football Live Match Chat GW13 You know Christmas is coming when we have GW13 ending on Sunday evening and GW15 beginning about 5 1/2 days later. That’s a subtle reminder that we have GW14 beginning on Tuesday. Raz… As for 13 it begins on Friday this week (he’ll miss this one too!), with Brighton welcoming Southampton. No early game on Saturday, instead 4 at 3pm with Brentford v Leicester. Palace v Newcastle, Forest v Ipswich and Wolves v Bournemouth. West Ham and Arsenal go at 5.30pm. Three games on Sunday at an earlier time of 1.30pm – Chelsea v Villa, Man Utd v Everton and Spurs v Fulham. Which is presumably to give breathing space for Liverpool and Man City as the main event at 4pm. Or just an extra bit of time for so...[Read More]
FF247 Site Team News GW13 Number 13… unlucky for some…probably us! Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW13 Things are not going well for the site team this season. Another red arrow for out lot this week. We got only 48 points which was one less than the average 49 this week. This saw us drop to 3,932,438. We were massively let down by two things… our midfield and our captain. Seems to be a theme this season as Haaland blanked again, our power midfield of Palmer, Bruno, Gordon and Mbeumo all got 2 points. You would think with Flekken, Myklolenko, Saliba, Watkins and Strand Larsen all getting 5+ points we would have seen a green arrow but alas it just wasn’t enough! Things have to change… surely, it will get better! Our Gameweek 12 Result We have 0.4 in the bank and 1 ...[Read More]
FPL Captain Picks GW13 Welcome to FPL Captain Picks GW13 Salah’s on fire, Haaland’s owners are terrified!!! (to the tune of the new football anthem Freed from Desire). Congratulations to those managers who had the foresight to include both Salah and Haaland in your team from the start of the season. A massive congratulations to those managers who had the bravery to transfer out the short-circuiting Robot for the Egyptian King. Commiserations to those managers (me, Jamie, included) who have persevered with Haaland and hoped that Salah would not continue his multi weeks point hauls. With Liverpool playing Manchester City this weekend then there is no doubt that those managers who own Salah will be keeping the captain’s armband on him and those managers who own Haaland keeping the captain’s a...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW13 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW13. With 18 managers corrrectly guessing this weeks FGS (Jackson), we had a more competitive race for a podium finish. Sarri-ball, Booty01, Shinespark all went with Jackson but fell short with 12pts and take third place. hammerfan went one beter with 13pts, but ultimately it was our league leader IvanTheTerrible who continues to push on, 14pts was enough for this weeks top-spot and that league title looks his to lose right now!

Fantasy Football Live Match Chat GW12 Fantasy Football Live Match Chat GW12 And we are back, again. With England restored to their rightful position in the UEFA Nations League, we can all breathe a huge sigh of relief, and agree that Herr Tuchel is having an outstanding influence on the team already. Just need to get him to a game or two now, somehow…. Back to the day job though, as Leicester and Chelsea get GW12 going at 12.30pm on Saturday. No less than 5 games follow this at 3pm with Arsenal v Forest, Villa v Palace, Bournemouth v Brighton, Everton v Brentford and Fulham v Wolves. Man City and Spurs see Saturday out with a mouth watering prospect of a game at 5.30pm. Just the two on Sunday with Saints v Liverpool at 2pm, followed by Ipswich and Man Utd at 4.30pm.

FF247 Site Team News GW12 When will the points come in? Welcome to FF247 Site Team GW12 Our Gameweek 11 Result It’s fair to say that GW11 is one we’re happy to forget. Unfortunately, with the international break, we’ve had to look at our pitiful performance for almost 2 weeks. Things couldn’t have gone much worse really. With all but 3 of our players registering no more than 2pts each, it was always going to be an uphill struggle. Ait-Nouri (6pts) and Mbeumo (5pts) did their upmost to keep us afloat, but with captain Haaland managing just 10pts whilst many captained a certain Egyptian, they were fighting a losing battle. Not only did we not captain Salah for what would have been 28pts, we don’t even own him. The pain. Some weeks you can get away with not owning the most popular captain pic...[Read More]
