FF247 Site Team News Gameweek1 Our 2024/25 Finished Overall Rank and Recent History Okay so we did not have a great season last year but Rosco already told you guys about all that in our Preseason Site Team article from two weeks ago so I won’t go back over it. You can see our teams history and the finishing rank in the image above. You can see we have had a very up and down few seasons with last year being our worst season EVER! That kind of means that the less said, the better. Initial set up We showed you all two weeks ago how we could go with a Bench Boost or not and showed you two drafts with minimal changes depending on which way we decided to go. Things have slightly changed in the FPL landscape since that article with what looks like a playing 4.0 keeper in Dubravka and a mul...[Read More]
FPL New Faces 2025/26 This season’s transfer window has been long and crazy, or at least at it feels that way to us! Given we have the attention span of a small fish, we thought it helpful to try and summarise a few of these new additions, if nothing else, so we can look at this again come Friday when we’ve forgotten all about it! Mind you, we won’t spend too much time on Wirtz or the likes of his famous peers, as they have seen plenty coverage already, but hopefully this will provide you with a few nifty notes for the new faces to the Premier League. So let’s get to it, we’ll go about it from the back to the front and cover some of the arrivals in the league. Goalkeepers Lucas Perri (4.5, Leeds) The 27-year-old Brazilian has joined Leeds from Lyon, and has received the numero uno shirt. H...[Read More]
Few games capture the spirit of Filipino gatherings quite like Tongits. It’s more than just a pastime; it’s a blend of chance, wit, and timing that has cemented itself in the country’s cultural DNA. Whether it’s played at a family reunion, during a fiesta, or now on digital platforms, tong its offers the kind of thrill that’s both familiar and endlessly surprising. What makes tongits stand out among other card games is the sheer variety of ways you can win. While some games only offer a single route to victory, tong its embraces multiple paths, giving players the freedom to strategize and improvise. Sometimes it’s about defense, waiting for the right moment to strike. Other times, it’s about boldness—declaring your hand with confidence or chasing a clean, dramatic finish. For players learn...[Read More]

How Smartphones Transformed Gambling Forever Steve Jobs probably did not anticipate that by presenting the first iPhone in 2007, he would cause such a radical change in the betting world, which only got triggered over time. Fast-forward to 2025, the impact of smartphones on gambling is massive, their influence on betting processes being only the tip of the iceberg. The mobile gambling sector is now worth 127 billion dollars, with a yearly growth rate of 11.4%, which has been going on for the last few years. Meteoric Rise of Mobile Gambling The revolution is highlighted by some very telling statistics. As per the most recent sector study by Morgan Stanley, the use of mobile technology has gone to 67% of the total worldwide online gambling activity at casinos like Casino Luck UK, which is an...[Read More]

How to Safe Online Money Transfers The digital revolution has drastically changed the way we manage our money, but this has not come without its vulnerabilities. The most recent report from the Federal Trade Commission shows that online financial scams have led to losses of over $2.8 billion, which equals the previous year’s figure multiplied by 1.47. In addition, fraud related to deposits is the leading cause of the digital financial crimes, accounting for almost 23% of all the reported cases. So, consumers must be familiar with the ways in which they can protect themselves. According to recent cybersecurity data from CyberEdge, 78% of the organizations have been compromised by at least one cyberattack. The financial platforms are the primary targets, the report also states. At the same t...[Read More]
FF247 Site Team News Pre-season Training We’re Back, Baby – FF247 25/26 Season Kick-Off! New season, same chaos – but this time with slightly more structure. After last year’s car crash of a Site Team performance, we’ve dusted ourselves off and we’re ready to give it another go. Let’s start with a bit of housekeeping, shall we? A New Dawn (Sort Of) You may have noticed things were a little quieter on the site last season. Truth is, getting our writers to actually write became harder than getting Darwin Nunez to stay onside. And when we did manage to publish something, comment volumes were lower than Southamptons’s final goal tally (26 for those interested). So this season, we’re scaling things back. Fewer articles, more focus, and hopefully more of you on site when it counts. Simple. Peopl...[Read More]
