Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! – Fantasy Premier League 2018-19
Usually when we ask our writing team to come forth for an International Break GABO we see tumbleweeds in abundance, and little sign of actual writers. This time however, for whatever reason, they were literally scrambling over each other to get involved. So much so that we have no less than two episodes of GABO to bring you in the break this time. We’ve decided to split them based upon perceived personality traits; Glass Half Full & Glass Half Empty. We say perceived personality traits… it was actually based solely on their original answers on WhatsApp to our request for entrants. Funnily enough, it was unerringly accurate.
First up then we have AT, Swirly and Rosco. AT and Swirly’s answers were very similar; when would you like it done by? As you’d expect. Rosco’s answer was a ‘brown thumb’…. which we took to mean a positive sign, others took it… well, we shall leave that to your own imagination.
Welcome to all, from the glass is half full club….
Thanks for reading Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! – Fantasy Premier League 2018-19. This article was written by Init

Or alternatively, we have the (big) DGW’s in pretty picture format in isolation, courtesy of Rosco;
Thanks Rosco, AT and Swirly for the entertaining read!
Would appreciate some thoughts on my team this week. Thinking of taking a -4 to do Salah and Bamba >> Sterling (TC candidate) and Azpilicueta to bring in some more DGWers. Unfortunately my lack of long term planning means this would leave me with 7 players for the blank, one of which is Billing! Could take a -4 next week to have 9 players in total, or even WC next week? Would these moves make sense or can you think of anything better for me to do this week?
Thanks in advance
These moves make sense to me.
You’re not in a bad shape at all actually given you’re FH-less! Even for GW33, being able to field 8 without hits is quite good I think, and these are good players.
I like those moves and you look in a decent enough position there. Vardy has a great fixture
Thanks guys, I’m think I’ll be fine for BGW33 with a hit since I’ll be selling my City assets so I’ll have a lot of money to play around with, and then WC GW34 to prepare for bench boost in GW 35 (pretty generic chip strategy). How many DGW players do you guys have?
These are always fun! Give it to us more often please!
(But then they might not feel special anymore, so no, not more often) 😉
There’s a Part 2………..
I don’t know how to feel about that!
Many thanks Rosco, AT & Swirly and of course Init for overseeing things.
A great read even with the VVD love 😉
You’ll enjoy part 2 so!
Sounds like its going to be a real cheerful experience
Thanks guys, always a pleasure to read GABO articles!
And thanks Rosco for the mention! Although I’m not sure how I should feel being seen as sexy by someone who showers with his dogs? 😉
That’s a Rosco dream for you. Does it get any better?
You should feel good.. real good 😉
How long do we think Fernandinho is out for? Thinking Gundogan might be a decent option but is it a waste of a City spot?
Probably a waste bud
So currently I have triple Chelsea, triple United, triple City and double Palace. Do any other teams matter
No but they might after another bottle of wine 😉
I have the same currently except one Watford player for one of your Palace.
