Fantasy Football (has been suspended!) Update
Unless you’ve been living under a rock (perhaps advisable right now) you will be aware that the Premier League have suspended all fixtures until (at least) April 4th. In essence this means that we will miss GW’s 30 & 31 and resume in GW32. Whether the 32 target actually happens is a different matter but for now that is what we are being told to work towards. We just wanted to make you aware of a few key things…
FPL have released the following on Twitter;
What does the #PL postponement mean for #FPL 👇
⬛ All GW30 and GW31 fixtures are postponed and the intention is for the PL to return for GW32 on 4 April, subject to medical advice

To pick the bones out of that, essentially what it all means is;
- GW’s 30 & 31 will still happen, albeit in a ghost fashion.
- You’ll get zero points awarded (unless you somehow still take a hit!).
- Any moves you make (be that transfers, hits, chips) will still count and be there whenever (if) we resume.
- They’ve waffled on about the FPL Cup and how it all affects H2H leagues but who really cares!
We appreciate that the above is short ‘n sweet but that is all you need to know in a nutshell. We shall update this accordingly as and when we know more.
Please feel free to continue to chat amongst yourselves as usual and add any relevant info in the comments if you see / hear anything pertinent to the above.
With football out, the country in lock-down and no work to do I’m finding it increasingly difficult to find excuses to divert myself from the family life… It’s a true crisis in the making… Any good ideas? :popcorn:
The Debacle by Zola
War and Peace (Edmonds’ translation)
The Triumph of Death section of De Lillo’s Underworld
Those are some serious works Kralin, I’m afraid you vastly overestimate my intellectual capacity. By a mile – or any other idiom measure of distance of your preference – or, rather, quite a few actually :dunce:
Serious but deeply human and very readable. You would be fine, trust me.
Playboy.
So are we all going to get a GW rank of 1?
Some folk will be on minus points for hits, so I am hoping for a green arrow.
I have a 4k green arrow
Correction,its now a 1k green arrow.
I capped KDB, banking on a good rank this GW :thumb-up:
That’d a lot of people that are going to be upset about their wildcard!
:big-lol:
FPL dream team. Almost as good as mine
Get in! Don’t you win a prize for being first in a gameweek?
Here’s my rank 6,442,978 with no points. Maybe its done alphabetically as my team name starts with R.
Glad you listened to our suggestions last night! :good2:
4 April return hard to imagine

Whatever they do they will have to give Liverpool at least two more games to play to win it mathematically so they can then give the title to them with no ifs and buts….
Well, there is a big PL meeting on Thursday to decide if the season should be abandoned and if Liverpool could have the title in that case.
