Welcome to our mid-month FantasyFootball 247 Leagues round-up.
Most of us initially will have got into fantasy football through work or friends leagues. Nothing wrong with that, but to really challenge yourself, how about you test your mettle against other Fantasy Football 247 regulars?
Season and Monthly League winners will be awarded a place in our Hall Of Fame – more on that to follow!
The Overall Members League (full season)
With a solid 85 points, Barntons Bashers retain their top position in the main league after GW16. Holding a global ranking of 1,473 and with 1,078 points, they are having a great season, and we are glad to have them setting the bar in our league. Herewegoagain are close behind having moved up to second spot with 1,074 points, and only a further 2 points back, third spot is occupied by Shane-PAIN FC on 1,072 points. New entrant, Robin Van Pricey, are straight in at fourth spot with 1,068 pts, having delivered an impressive 97 points this game week – the highest score of this week’s top 10. James101 make up the top 5, with 1,062 points.
A mere 14 points behind are a 3 man chasing pack, containing second season wonder Michu’s Grassy Ass, and two very experienced managers, Powerful Potty Fc and Cookie’s Monsters, all on 1,048 points. Site regular, Milk and Busquets, follows 4 points off, on 1,044 points, with Norfulk-in-chance closing out our top ten on 1,039. Other notable movers this week include the perhaps misnamed duo, Not so SPECIAL ones and Real Morbid, who both managed to score 103 points, almost double the game-week average of 55 points, moving up to 24th and 31st spots respectively. And no, no Potty Prizes will be awarded for guessing who they captained!
The Monthly League
In top spot at the mid-month point is X Treme, on a very impressive 275 points for the month, including 91 for this game-week. The team’s overall ranking isn’t so high as yet, but with this kind of performance and a team value of £110m we feel that’s going to change fast. In second spot, on 268 points for the month are The Untouchables. Falling to third spot, but only 5 points behind, Killer instincts delivered 263 points in December to date. In fourth spot, on 261 points, are our season league leaders, Barntons Bashers, and Real Morbid rise to fifth on 254 points, lifted by their outstanding game-week.
The Greatest FC enter our rankings at 6, narrowly missing out on a ton, scoring 99 points (unlucky!). In 7th spot this month is James101, with Pimp my Side in eighth spot, at 247 points. Closing out our top ten are Inter ma’nan and Monkeys Nuts.
Many thanks to elleffcee for working out the monthly table – you may notice a slight difference in a couple of the rankings, this is because the monthly charts that are automatically generated do not take all hits into account – clearly these should be factored in to show who’s really performing best.

well done James nice debut article
Well done jimbo, first of many I hope. Chat later
Thanks Lads. Kind words appreciated.
Hold on, I have to do this again?!
Nice one, Jimbo :thumbup:
Aha!!! I knew there was something missing tonight..no dodgy advice going around,clearly you’ve been busy!! I joke of course,nice on James well written,here’s to many more mate!!
NiN, I am very sure Slow and I have the dodgy advice area of the site very much cornered. He handles fpl and I handle the non fpl related area.
Partners in crime Mito ay?? Haha
Would you take out ozil for a hit for Silva? Or Terry for Coleman or Zab?
Or stay hit free.
Brought in Rooney earlier after much debate.
TheDreamers – I’d leave as is and get Coleman in next week,he’s essential in my opinion.
Hi Nin – I guess it’s points over money that’s the goal
I would stay hit free, if I was you…
Logic says if u have sold Kun – you are now missing City coverage !
I don’t think I have the guts to advise you to sell Ozil as he has been one of the best mids in the absence of many we have been so convinced they should and will deliver this season, too..
Though now with Wally back pts will be distributed between all of them..He would still be getting a big piece of the cake, imho…though now his price won’t be justified if he starts scoring 2or3pts per week…
He has a derby game now AT HOME – which is stopping me say – ship him out !!!
This one can again easily end with a lot of goals at both sides, and he might get a piece of the action, too..especially after the trashing last week – they ll be eager to prove a point…
Otherwise – there goes LIV top of the FPL !
If you want to have Silva long-term (and I’m sure you do) – I’d say get him in ! (probably the best City cover atm + a very good City schedule ahead…
The choice is urs though, whether u want to do a hit and bring him in now (maybe even 2noght – as he is on 99.7% ) or just wait and do the Ozil–>Silva transfer for a no-hit next week…
Go with ur gut 😉 !
Thanks HL.
I think if Ramsey wasn’t getting the points, I’d ship him out. 3 is too much from one team.
Cheers James, nice article!
Good stuff James. Well written.
