As we are sure you are by now aware FF247 have been shortlisted as a finalist for the Best FPL Football Blog Awards (FBA). The finals take place on November 13th at the National Football Museum in Manchester. Voting closes this Friday and it is a close run thing so far so this is our last plea for more votes! We would dearly love to bring home an award for you all as a thank you for your following and dedication. We are under no illusions that the competition is strong and we are honoured to have even made it this far in our first year but with your help you just never know. Details of how to vote follow below and the main message here is that if you have already voted in the first round of voting you need to do so again as votes were reset for the finals.

All at Fantasy Football 247.
Afternoon all,
Sorry for the repost -i had originally put this on the older thread by mistake.
Do you think its safe to say that S Taylor is now part of the 1st choice CB pairing for newcastle?
Since he has come in to the team they have tightened up & had a few CS
At 3.9 he could be a bargin
Hammers
Mentioned this earlier, I have my eye on him to replace Duff of Burnley the week after next.
Howdy GP, well done this week :thumbup: cracking score.
hammers – He looks to be 1st choice, bad injury record though. Maybe one to keep an eye on but leave for now.
Hammers,
I thought S Taylor was the captain before his injury. Or maybe he was ‘club captain’. Can’t recall exactly.
Anyway, i think he should be good to keep his place ahead of williamson as long as he’s fit.
Not sure if there are any geordies around who could confirm? Now the weathers turned cold, i imagine they’re all out t-shirt shopping….
West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce has revealed that Diafra Sakho is expected to be back in action this weekend after recovering from a shoulder injury.
“We think Sakho will be back for the next game,” he told the club’s official website. “We don’t think the shoulder is going to be too long.
“There’s no dislocation; it’s a cartilage problem so it’s bruised and the pain is still pretty tender but it’s getting better every day and hopefully he’ll be back for Aston Villa. If not, we have to cope with it and after that it’s the international break.”
Jeet, just a quickie, why are you using the same grav as Cody ?
What ?
Huh? He’s using a United grav
It Early i’ve know but Who is the best choice for Captain Next GW thinking Pelle,Di Maria or Aguero ..?
Jeet, i don’t think you need to look further than Man City or Southampton this week mate. Possibly Southampton / Pelle have the edge as no champs league.
Di Maria too, Chins mate. No CL and at home to Palace. It’s gonna be hard to choose between him, Pelle and Aguero.
Woah, how long have you just been called ‘Chins’? lol
Ha!
Rich / Site IT guru changed it a while back when he said long user names were causing the site to have problems.
Its the same reason your name on here is now just ‘Bry’.
…..wait a minute!!!!!
I’m a premium member. Lets my use my Twitter handle in my name for a £10 per annum. Not sure why Rich wanted it payable specifically to him and not to mention it on here. Ah well. Sure there’s a good business reason.
Yep. I keep forgetting Utd aren’t in Europe this year!! Haha. Whoops.
Sorry Utd fans. That wasn’t a cheap shot. 😉
This is my current team below, can anyone see any immediate changes that need to be made? I have 1FT this week with 0.5 in the bank. Thanks
Very nice team.Only thing missing is Aguero !!
Maybe Downing for Siggy ?? Sorry but i’ve got a downer on Siggy at the mo !!!
DAMMIT STERLING!!!!!!!!
I was all poised to do a cheeky Walcott and Boyd in for Sterling and King…. Guess what? Stupid Sterling drops 0.2 since Sat (could have been fine for 0.1m…)
What should I do now??
Krul (Heaton)
Wisdom Bertrand Baines (Moore, N.Taylor)
Sterling Di Maria Siggy Chadli (King)
Costa Aguero C Pelle V
1 FT and 0.2m itb
Can get Walcott in but for a 8 point hit (really dont want to though)
Is Sterling really that much of a sinking ship??
Now I see that Sturridge is on the plane with the team to Madrid.
If he is back then Sterling would surely do very well
How about just doing Sterling to Downing this week then switch Siggy to Walcott after the international break if it looks like he is going to start.Re Sturridge coming back i’d still dump sterling for now,Liverpool have looked shocking.
Thinking of playing this team next week exactly how it is but I do have 2 FTS and 0.1 mil in the bank what do you guys think??
Don’t waste the free transfer.For me Sterling and siggy are a problem as they just aren’t getting the points and liverpool have been awful.Also i’d be looking to get rid of mannone at some point especially if he doesn’t start tonight but you have krul so thats not a priority.I’d be changing my formation to 3-4-3 and playing Welbeck over Trippier aswell.Always play a striker over a defender unless he’s injured or the defender is Baines 😉
Well with Sturridge flying with the team to Madrid it seems he is coming back Sterling could fly back into form again so might keep him for a bit. Was going to play Trippier over Welbeck because Burnley are playing Hull so hopefully he will get a clean sheet
