Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! – Fantasy Premier League 2021-22
Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! – Fantasy Premier League 2021-22 International break means GABO time as always, so let’s get it! This panel is filled by 3 FF247 vets. Swirly of Quack Creative fame, who I expect to be more concerned with my use of commas and spelling than answering any of the fpl questions. He is joined by the boss, Init, who hates commas and thinks they are overrated. Speaking of hate, we also have the old grouch back, Kop, who I am sure will be his usual pleasant self when answering. Well, without further ado, let us see what the boys had to say. Thanks for reading Grab, Avoid or Bore Off!. This article was written by Mito21.

Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW8
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW8 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW8. A low scoring week for most here in H&L comp as it was a rather tight week in the Premier League. Exactly half of the games ended with the spoils being shared with 5 drawn. United got pinned back by Everton whilst Burnley, Norwich, Arsenal and Brighton played out two boring 0-0’s with Liverpool and Man City giving us the best game of the season so far in a brilliant 2-2 draw. This week, unlike real life, there was no draw for the winner. Sherlock won fair and square out on their own with 14 points. Second place was however shared with Goldilocks and Irfan7cr both accumulating 11 points. Nobody correctly guessed the FGS this week as it came from the unlikely source of Antho...[Read More]
How to bet on fantasy football?
How to bet on fantasy football? Betting has become very popular in almost every sport, and especially football. The grand tournaments, cups, and leagues gather a lot of bettors to different websites and betting apps to look for the best odds. Part of the reason why people bet is to add some extra excitement to the games, but the money aspect of it is of course a huge drive. Betting is also possible in fantasy football; here we take a look at how it works. Firstly, you must learn the rules of the game and the betting before you start. This can minimize your losses, and keep you informed on any strategies and tips you might need. Doing this goes for any type of betting, and maybe especially with less traditional sports like fantasy football and esports. In this case, you can look up good tip...[Read More]
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 7
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 7 FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 7 The last GW before yet another International Break. This one begins on Saturday as Ronaldo Man United welcome Rafa back to Old Trafford for lunch. We then have four games at 3pm with Norwich taking the long trip up to Burnley, Chelsea looking to rediscover their mojo vs Saints, Leeds hosting Watford and Newcastle going down to Wolves. Arsenal’s new resolve will then be severely tested by Brighton in the late game. 2pm on Sunday then becomes the new 3pm of a Saturday with three games all at once: Palace welcome Vardy and co, Spurs and Villa play hide & seek with their Argentinian contingent and Brentford make the short trip to West Ham. Presumably they were all told to clear off early to make way for Sky’s inevit...[Read More]
FPL Team Gameweek 7
FPL Team Gameweek 7 Welcome to FPL Team Gameweek 7 Above average/below expectation So we have suffered only our second captaincy fail of the season with CR7 bringing us – and many – the miserable 4 points. Ugh. Probably explains why we just about snuck over the average line by three points when in most other weeks so far we’ve been miles ahead of the average. Proof, if it were ever needed, that captaincy is critical. We scored 46 points in Gameweek 6 to take us to 221,616 via the dreaded RED arrow. Not panicking yet but we have some questions requiring answering soon, if not very soon. Raphinha, Antonio and our new signing Saint-Maximin brought us (8) points a piece and Salah just behind on seven. The rest (including said captain) doesn’t merit the bashing of the ke...[Read More]

Predicted Line-ups and FPL Team News Gameweek 7 If you can’t do something properly… get someone else to do it! We are back as ever with our predicted line-ups in conjunction with / courtesy of Drafthound. The usual warnings apply here: please take this as their / our best guess as to the line-ups, but it will never ever be 100% accurate, such is the nature of attempting to do so. Two things to bear in mind; We trust Drafthound. They will have done their research into all this, especially given what they do, just as we used to, but these things are a ‘best guess’ exercise at best. Usual leeway should be accounted for, etc. Given their time and effort in providing this content for us it would be rude not to occasionally click on the Drafthound link and check out their...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 7
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 7 Welcome to Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 7 Last week was billed as a straight two way battle between Ronaldo and Salah and we offered up a couple of alternatives just to liven the party up. As it transpired neither of them took top spot. In fact one one of them stunk the place up so much he even finished behind… Conor Gallagher! Last week’s result; 1. Mito – Antonio, 16 points. Antonio pipped Salah despite both grabbing a goal but the bonus point Gods pointed the way of the West Ham man. 2. Kralin – Salah, 14 points. He may have the won battle but he didn’t win the war. 3. Cookie – Gallagher, 8 points. Perhaps just proving that even the most left-field of picks can outscore anyone on their day. 4. Rosco...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW7
Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW7 Welcome to Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek GW7 On the face of it this may seem like a bit of an odd week to roll out a fixtures article as we are about to have a break for the internationals but GW7 always felt like a bit of a turning point as quite a few teams see a change in their fixture fortune from this point in time. How much stock you put in the fixtures themselves is up to you, as we all know an in-form player can sometimes make a mockery of them. Sometimes… More often than not though it pays to be informed so that you can target the next big thing. Or quite simply bring in the obvious thing (player) at the correct time. Our usual format here is to examine the good vs the bad, except that when we sat down and attempted to split the te...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW7
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW7 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW7. The scores last week are the type I can work with. Lots of 0’s, 1’s and 2’s. Only Liverpool, Arsenal and Brentford managed a number higher; both Brentford and Liverpool grabbed 3 a-piece in an unexpected 3-3 draw and the Arsenal were anything but boring as they stuck the same number past Nuno’s hapless Spurs. Elsewhere it was a good week for the more prudent predictors unless you’re looking in particular at the result over at Old Trafford. Ouch. This week, MDB was the big party pooper. 16 pts was enough to hand him the winners gong, snatching victory away from yours truly (Rosco). There was me, 14 pts, getting all excited for a lovely new t-shirt. It was not to be. Third place was Sa...[Read More]

FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 6 FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 6 Five gameweeks in already, how time flies when you’re having fun! Gameweek 6 begins on Saturday this week, thank the good lord! (Pardew?). The normality ends there though as we have two 12.30 kick offs. Chelsea look to continue their solid form as they welcome Man City while Villa take the trip up the M6 to Old Trafford. Why are United at 12.30pm but not on TV? Because The Courteeners are playing at Old Trafford Cricket Ground that night! These rock bands think they can Take Over The World! Four 3pm matches follow as Everton hope the visit of Norwich may inject some momentum into their campaign, Antonio looks to single handedly destroy the Leeds defence, Leicester host Burnley and Newcastle take the long trip down to Watfo...[Read More]

FPL Team Gameweek 6
FPL Team Gameweek 6 Welcome to FPL Team Gameweek 6 Sticky plaster Well Gameweek 5 is in the books and the lads at FF247 have secured yet another green arrow (easy this lark) as we score 19 points above the average score and a weekly total of 74 points, which we are obviously delighted with. We have a few mentions here but it goes without saying that first up is Captain Fantastic Salah with 24 points. Lit! Said Benrahma (10), Raphinha (8), Ben White (7), Ronaldo (6) and Patrick Bamford (5) all pulled their weight to varying degrees. Our next best scorer was The Greek Scouser Tsimikas who climbed off the bench – ONE OF THREE AUTOSUBS – to provide us 5 points. Legend in the making him. The rest were just 2s and 3s but the three autosubs thing, whilst unusual and humourous, is prob...[Read More]
