Fantasy Premier League £500 Regulars League 2019/20
Hello everyone and welcome back to the FF247 Regulars League(s).
The purpose of this article is so that our Regulars League has a permanent home for reference points throughout the season such as cup draws and the like. It is permanently linked on our Hot Topics just above the latest comments.
As usual we will have a Regulars Classic League and we also have H2H leagues with promotion and relegation as well as a Regulars Cup starting in January.
We do have a main FF247 league and that is open to every man/woman and their dog. There is no autolink facility available from FPL yet but if you wish to join that one, for which there will also be a prize, the code is;
FF247 Main Site League – ikkny1 Which is almost kinky…
The Regulars League is a bit more selective. You have to be a member of FF247 and you have to post comments in the community here on a regular enough basis to be easily recognisable, and posting is monitored by the way.
Its not hard to join, e-mail me (Elle) at the address below and leave these details for me.
1- Your site user name.
2- Your real name.
3- Your team name from last season and new team name if it has changed. New members, just your team name.
These leagues are free to join but you do need to mail me. Deadline is midnight on the 6th August for the H2H leagues as I’ll need time to promote people if we have drop-outs. The Classic Regulars League can remain open for longer. Get mailing folks :- elleffcee@gmail.com
All we ask is that if you enter the league please keep the league code to yourself and don’t share it with friends and family who don’t frequent the site. It’s a community only league and we would like to keep it that way.
Thanks for reading Fantasy Premier League £500 Regulars League 2019/20. This article was written by Ellefcee

Jiménez high ownership is partly due to being in all the autopick teams.
Evening all!
Are we feeling the FPL love yet?
Nope! Got a cricket World Cup to win first and now a Tour de France too evidently!
Who’s your Capo this week? I got called into a meeting at 10 this morning – got out with 5mins to go, had to go tp trap 1 for a signal, got flustered and missed the deadline. Was probably a very amusing watch!!
All in all I have to go without a captain this week as still on Kohli. Shame.
You’ve still got a Capo, you just have to not TC him if you’re going Bowling with India, which I assume you’ll have to.
Mines on Shakib, as is pretty much everybody else. Someone went Finch but the rest are on the latter. Interesting that he’s considered so dangerous that nobody wanted to break ranks, even with a chase on. Guess we’ll have to for the semis and final though.
Still no idea what we do with the chips come those rounds in terms of do we have them or not and is it just a case of picking 2 and then 1 to play.
Finch or Starc could be good captains this week. Yeah surprised more haven’t rolled the dice as it’ll be tough to make up a deficit next round.
I certainly was looking to gamble, too far behind not to. Wouldn’t have worked as my ridiculous punts rarely do but would have made for some fun.
Haven’t even looked at next round – plenty of time for that yet.
When does the biking start – this weekend?
Yeah, biking starts this weekend.
Just risky given their one dimensional nature I suppose, when Shakib is free and available from involvement in other chips anyway.
Biking is Saturday.
I had Aussies v England for batting chip in week 7 and kept him when I changed the others over to India. Disappointed as TC in week 8 but I thought I’d give him another chance this week
Finch that is
I fear my cricket challenge is grinding to a halt!
And to answer your question, no. I haven’t given FPL any thought.
Me neither – I keep trying to find some enthusiasm to write Fixtures for GW1 and I end up doing the crossword
6 Down. Often handed out to errant workers (3, 7)
I’ve never got on with crosswords. I know there’s a code, etc, but when I see a clue like:
Eggy?(17)
My brain starts to seize up.
Fat bonuses
You’re not in Monaco anymore!
Big cuddles?
The Gallows
Bloody hell, even I’m not that draconian!
Yet.
String ’em up, I.
It’s the only language they understand.
I kind of prefer people who I’m expecting articles from to still be with us to write them, you know……
I asked myself yesterday if I should do a bit of prep for GW1 Tips, you can guess what the answer was.
I can’t even manage a cricket deadline and I love cricket!
Of course. (Though I could lie and come out with the modish line of ‘I’m too involved with fantasy netball, gotta go and think about my captain’.)
Though in a distracted way, admittedly, knowing that much transfer and injury business is to come. And besides, it’s summer.
I hope that all is well with you.
All is good thanks Kralin, though we are about to embark on another house move soon. As I said to my aunty earlier, I’m now wishing for a dull, boring life!
How are you my friend?
Blimey, a glutton for punishment. Or wanderlust. Hopefully the next move will be the last for a while. I always find moving house stressful, even when it’s within the same town, or city.
All is fine, thank you.
Not at all Cookie. Way too early in the summer.
On that note, I love to see the “this is me except for any injuries’ ones.
Have you met Mickey yet GP?
No that treat is still to come.
Paris for the other usual stuff today though.
Yup! I’ve already had 20+ iterations of my squad. I almost wish they had waited to launch site bc there’s still way too much time left
Evening Cookie. I sure am.
BTW, I am claiming the fantasy u21 title ( not counting that Polish guy) it is funny though, that manager had the highest score in all 5 rounds, WTF?
How shite are we that none of us could outscore him in any round.
Morning strangers. How are we all? What with starting an MBA and having our first child in September I convinced myself I was gonna take a year off FPL this year. But another stint in hospital has driven me to reconsider 😉 I know it’s pointless at this stage, but here’s my first of many, many teams.
I guess it’s equally pointless to answer but here goes
A bit different which is always good but I’d just go for Ederson/Alisson or cheap like Ryan, Arnie has handed in a transfer request which would suggest don’t go near him, and I just don’t trust Sanchez until he shows some proof again!
Hey Zed. How goes it? I assume you’re confident of a better season this year? I mean Southampton not FPL btw!
On the Ederson/Allison thing, I can’t help thinking there’s better value in the defense than the keepers at those clubs. And Leno just jumped out at decent value for the extra 0.5. He probably won’t make the final team tho 😉
Sanchez is a huge punt at this stage. But if he performs that mid looks decent doesn’t it! Arnie will never make the team, I just couldn’t be bothered to change it yet!!!
Yeah Ralph seems like a good manager and I’m rather excited to see him get a clean start and a full season, also like Che Adams hope he can bring in some pacey goals to the team, but we still need some more signings, a commanding CB and I’d like to see a good tackling defending or holding mid aboard as well! But so far so good
Yeah I don’t currently have Alisson/Ederson either due to the reason you mention, that’s why I have the Ryan/Button double up which seems rather good at least for the start of the season, save points and all that!
How’s Portsmouth shaping up?
I can see you lot having a strong season. Could hurt my FPL-wise with my no scummer policy 😉
I’m not confident for Pompey. Selling your best players pre season isn’t usually a solid promotion strategy.
Kodija to fodder, Arnie to King will give you 6 million for a replacement for Kiko and that looks good
That’s an interesting idea. Just been poking around the 6m defenders and it’s only really city that stand out. And Maguire is there on the assumption he’s a city player
Trippier could be worth a punt? The Chelsea defenders seem risky, as do united.
Trippier could be good. Digne as well with those fixtures
Mendy is a bit of a risk too with Zinchenko getting a payday and a potential Ake transfer looming since he can play left back and I wouldn’t see Pep playing too left footed centerbacks at the same time
I’m hoping the Charity Shield will give us some sort of clarity.
It would be a truly great start to the season to see an expensive defender benched.
Just read that Mendy might not return till after the pre season tour which has got to be bad
What’s people’s opinions on the beautiful Frenchman? Surely he starts every game? At 7.0 he could be a steal.
Tammy Abraham could get game time. Hard to say right now. Pre season will shed more light.
Yeah I think he will be first choice definitely one to watch over pre season. My only concern is Giroud, Abraham and Bats all rotating
Whoever is first choice could really be a bargain though
Yep, I currently don’t have any Chelsea players but I would definitely like to have one!
I’ve got Hudson-Odoi pencilled in currently. Depends on fitness though as he might not make start. I’m sure I’ll have one once pre season becomes clearer
I can see myself bringing in a bunch of Chels with my WC but I don’t think I’m brave enough to start with any.
There’s a neat switch from Bournemouth to Chelsea in terms of fixtures in GW3.
It would give managers an opening quartet of fixtures of: SHU, villa, norwich, SHU.
It also allows us to see what Chelsea are getting up to before committing.
I like that a lot
Looking forward to seeing how well Ndombélé works with Moura and Kane in preseason. Moura could be a great shout at 7.5 with Son suspended. Moura had a good August last season too when Son was in Asia.
One of my debates is Moura v Kane.
I’m not 100% sure that what Moura enables – and the risk of selecting a player whose time may be limited once Son returns – is worth it; however he could simply be there as a placeholder for Son.
And it’s a shame that the second game Son is suspended for is City. It’s a one game punt basically
The lure of the game v a promoted side.
I have once or twice tried to remove Spurs from my thinking but it’s hard, given their undoubted strengths.
before the wolves loss, Spurs had won 20 home games in a row against the newly promoted sides….
I like Alli’s value. He’s nailed on to start when fit and is ready for a breakout campaign
I don’t think I’ve ever had Alli in my side before. Worth watching for sure. Pogba is 8.5 as well (should he still be here, be motivated etc etc).
Dele Alli? Breakthrough season? He’s played roughly 130 PL games for Spurs. I think his breakthrough season is behind him.
He’s been useless for a while now. Not like he’s had too many injuries either
