FF247 Site Team, Xmas Tips & Predicted Line-ups Gameweek 19
FF247 Site Team, Xmas Tips & Predicted Line-ups Gameweek 19 “You can write about other players too.. you just have to land on the ones we pick!” This seemed like a great idea at the time. Bearing in that we didn’t know up until Friday night whether we would have any games to write about (do we still, really?) we decided to condense our articles a bit. Given as the FF247 Site Team had decided to play its WC this week we reckoned we could combine that with some sort of a Xmas Tips article. Best of both worlds, two birds with one stone, etc… That’s until we started to work out how to combine the pair! Without going in to too much detail and boring the pants off you let’s just say that the following has the potential to be either ‘great’ or ‘a great big mess’. Either way it’ll be funny to...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Inside The Mind Of An FPL Player Gameweek 19
Fantasy Football Inside The Mind Of An FPL Player Gameweek 19 We had a whole raft of articles planned this week but given the current climate / situation we decided to sit on our hands a bit, rather understandably. As a result we now have a bumper combo one coming your way later in the week as we will somehow attempt to combine a Christmassy Tips article with the Site Team playing a Wildcard, with Predicted Line-Ups tagged on the end of it. Wish us luck, etc. In the meantime we were going to do a Captains article but trying to stretch the few short words ‘Salah plays Leeds’ into 1000+ was beyond even us. Instead we have decided to fill the gap with one of our newer additions, one which seems to have proved to be very popular since we introduced it a few months back. If you have...[Read More]
How does soccer excitement manifest itself?
How does soccer excitement manifest itself? Millions of people make money on soccer and football-related topics. And the easiest option, which also seems to be the most accessible, is betting on sports or playing minimum deposit 1 pound casino. It is a separate excitement that only such a “lottery” can generate. Because, as it is, sports can be unpredictable. This is what adds to the basic excitement and fervor because without it, there would be no point in betting. Yes, calculations and predictions go a long way toward making the right choice, but in the end, it’s not the predictions that win the matches, it’s the athletes. And that means zeal, willpower, tactics and unexpected decisions become the main culprits for winning. This is fascinating and makes soccer a s...[Read More]

The most gambling footballers
The most gambling footballers Real and new casinos not using gamstop, a variety of gambling, and betting on sports have now become a very popular pastime, and for some, a means of making money. Not only soccer fans like to play, but also the soccer players themselves. Some of them hide their passion for gambling, and some, on the contrary, talk about it themselves. Some of them are sometimes lucky, but still many of them became victims of gambling and lost a fortune. We will tell you about popular soccer players who gamble. Paul Merson The footballer, who began his stellar career at Arsenal, suffered from various addictions: drugs, alcohol, and gambling. Merson, fortunately, managed to overcome these addictions, but the most difficult for him to fight was a game addiction. According to the...[Read More]
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 18
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 18 Welcome to FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 18 There may be some games to chat about… We are at the time of writing down to just the five four fixtures. By the time this hits the airwaves then… who knows! In theory there are were two games on Saturday with Villa and Burnley kicking us off on their lonesome at 3pm before Leeds and Arsenal ‘completed’ the day at 5.30pm. Now it’s just the latter. Sunday looks relatively crowded then with three games! Two at 2pm with Newcastle having the unenviable task of trying to restrict Man City as well as Wolves and Chelsea competing to see who can miss the most chances in a game. Our rather curtailed GW comes to an end at 4.30pm as Spurs welcome Liverpool.* *delete as applicable There is then a bit of respite with a break unt...[Read More]
Site Team & Predicted Line-ups Gameweek 18
Site Team & Predicted Line-ups Gameweek 18 Fantasy 5-a-side Our GW17 Result… Amidst the carnage that was GW17 we managed to field 9 players and came out a bit bruised and battered with just 51 points and with another red arrow through our hearts, as we plummeted 40k in rank to 256,951st. But we still had some decent performances within that via goals from Trent, Salah (c), Jota and Death Rowe and a clean sheet from White. Rudiger, Raphinha and Antonio all got two, whilst Ayling rather unhelpfully came off the bench to add a -1. We have £0.9m in the bank and 2 free transfers to use ahead of GW18. Let’s go see what was decided…. Our GW18 Transfer(s) All things considered we aren’t in that bad a shape this week. That’s if you take out the absence of any fit or available goalkeeper ...[Read More]
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 17
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 17 Welcome to FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 17 It’s a quick turnaround this week with a midweek fixture fest to get us right in the mood for Christmas and the chaos ahead. This one spans three days from Tuesday to Thursday and then we begin again on Saturday. Tuesday itself sees three games, all spread out slightly. with Brentford welcoming Ralf and his new spangled clean sheets at 7.30pm, Villa going to Norwich at 7-47pm before Pep and Bielsa have their usual cuddle at 8. Wednesday looks relatively uninteresting, if we are being brutally honest, with Brighton v Wolves, Burnley v Watford and Palace v Saints all at 7.30pm. Just say you are washing your hair or something instead. Arsenal v West Ham should be a bit more lively at 8pm. It’d have to try h...[Read More]
FF247 Site Team & Predicted Line-ups Gameweek 17
FF247 Site Team & Predicted Line-ups Gameweek 17 Hmmmmm…. It really is all or nothing for us at the moment. We’ve now had, since the season started, four green arrows in a row, then three red, four green and now four red again. Based on this we are due four green now. We say, in hope more than expectation… As for this latest one it wasn’t a disaster by any means, we garnered 62 points, a few above the average, but (not) enough to see us slip about 30k down to an overall rank of 215,171st. Just as well our ‘premium’ defenders turned up as they got exactly half of our points between them. Ironically, that included a 6 from White off the bench. You’d have to have read last week’s article to appreciate why that’s ironic though. Captain Salah added 16, Raphinha got us 7 and the rest ...[Read More]
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 16
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 16 Welcome to FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 16 And then there were 9… It’s not the first time and it almost certainly won’t be the last but at least we had some advance notice and so we could all react accordingly, rather than simply being left to check if you got that bench order correct. We wish those Spurs boys the best and a full recovery. As for who is left we begin on Friday with the solitary game which is Watford making the short trip to Brentford. Man City and Wolves get us going on Saturday in the early game before Arsenal welcome Saints, Chelsea and Leeds revive the 70’s and Stevie G slips into Anfield, all at 3pm. Norwich and Man United see Saturday out in the late one. West Ham go to Burnley and Leicester welcome Newcastle at ...[Read More]

The Five Best Defenders to Have In Your Fantasy Football Team In the world of fantasy football, defenders can prove a valuable asset, depending on their style of play. Some defenders are highly consistent and not only do a stellar job of shielding the keeper, but also like to attack, which allows them to support players upfront and the team to put more pressure on their opponents.

Here are the five best defenders to make room for in your fantasy football team and provide an almost virtual guarantee of points in the bag: Trent Alexander-Arnold At £7.5 million, the Liverpool right back costs a pretty penny, bu...[Read More]
