Interactive Fantasy Football Fixture Tracker 2015-16
It’s that time again folks; T minus two weeks or so and counting! Many FPL players pick their initial team based chiefly on last season’s form, others on as many big names as possible (with the necessary accompanying threadbare bench), while yet others have a noticeable bias towards players from their supported team (Kop does NOT approve!). The serious FPL player will select their starting 15 based on a wide range of factors however, not least of which are the fixtures.
With that in mind I’ve updated and improved the season-long tracker a few people seemed to find useful last year. This lets you choose how difficult each fixture is and displays appropriate colours as an easy visual guide – much like the tracker on the site except that it shows the whole season and is interactive. I’ll give a brief outline of how it works here but there are instructions in the tracker too and there’s a link to a video explaining it at the bottom.
You start by grouping together teams of similar ability, such as putting Arsenal, Chelsea, City and United in Level 1. Last season you could put teams in 4 different groups, but now you can place them in anything from 3 to 10 groups depending on how detailed you want to get. This way you could even have Chelsea in a category all on their own if you consider them to be that much better than their rivals for example.
Next comes the other upgrade from the first tracker – last season you were limited to having 5 colours represent the different matches, but now you can choose between 3, 5 or 7. After you make your choice you will then decide how difficult you rate each match between teams of different groups. When you have finished you can select the Fixtures Tab and all of the colours there will have updated to be specific to your own ratings. These can be changed as often as you like, and indeed should be updated as the season goes on to account for changes in teams’ forms.

CC this is fantastic thank you very much. Above and beyond pal! very cool

Ozil or Cazorla?
Calvin
I all seriousness, this looks brilliant and ultimately will be so useful. I’m going to have a go tonight and get it working for me. Managed to watch the video at lunchtime though – like the parallel universe comment.
Anyone else thinking about Benteke now with him signing with Liverpool?
Would you also pick Milner/Hendo in your team though?
Peter – I’ve got Benteke and Chadli, not putting all my eggs in one basket.
Star I generally dont have 2 attacking players from the same team… but Benteke could do very well and Milner is on form…

I’m waiting to see how Liverpool settle first, who plays where and once their tough away matches are over.
Love it CC! Thanks a lot for this mate.
And the video is great! Wait. Am i allowed to call it a video still? I wouldn’t want to be accused of being stuck in the 90’s! 😉
Video? Will have to google that.
