FF247 Member Profiles

Who are you? Who are you? Fantasy manager profiles Part 5

Who are you? Who are you? Fantasy manager profiles Part 5

Here at FF247 towers we’ve often wondered what driving forces hide behind a comment or a rate my team reply, do we really know the mindset and the persona of the people we are conversing with?! To find the answers to these questions we have lured some regulars from out of their caves and got them to endure a simple Q&A session.
Hopefully this will help us to uncover whether each member can be viewed as a ‘fellow sports enthusiast’, ‘colleague’, ‘fantasy friend’, ‘internet troll’ or indeed ‘sociopath’! Let’s take a look inside the minds of our latest two ‘victims’ then and see whether, hiding behind the cute monkey gravatars, lurks a sadistic, megalomaniacal, psychotic keyboard warrior. Or just a normal guy or gal who likes to play fantasy football…
We will add a disclaimer here – we have resolved to not edit what is sent in at all. What you see is what you (we) get. And no Bench, we aren’t just saying that because it’s your turn 😉
Next up to the examination table are Bench and Monty(Caz Daz).

    Well this gameweek is one i’d like to forge about. Anyway, moving on. I have 2 Free Transfers and am faced with a few issues. I would really like Baines this week (For Shawcross). In order to do that I have to do at least one more transfer. Considering my issues, i don’t mind a hit.

    Here’s the team.

    De Gea (Myhill)

    Clyne, Bertrand, Shawcross (Moore, Vlaar)

    Fabregas, Sigurdsson, Di Maria, Chadli (Schneiderlin)

    Aguero, Costa, Ulloa

    0.3 left
    Cheers
