FF247 FPL Team GW9
FF247 FPL Team GW9 Welcome to FF247 FPL Team GW9 Rite of passage Remember GW8? Barely? Well hear us now as we take you back and display our feathers proudly. 67 points – 12 above the average – whilst good, is not exactly earth- shattering, but taken in the context of our previous two weeks where we were below average and taking hits (well one), then we’re content and ready to grasp the nettle and tackle the week ahead vigorously… …and more on that later. What seems like TEN Fridays ago, Southampton beat Newcastle United 2-0 and Alex McCarthy made it four clean sheets in six for our...[Read More]
FPL Captain Picks Gameweek 9
FPL Captain Picks Gameweek 9 Welcome to FPL Captain Picks Gameweek 9 Absolute carnage! And no we aren’t talking about last weeks picks, well ok maybe one of them but more about that later. The way things are going this week half of our candidates will be either injured or Covid positive by the time we come to publish this. Cracking idea to play International football right now, and hey let’s not just play the normal amount, let’s cram in even more games to see just how many players we can break… Anyway, we digress from ranting. How did last weeks panel get on? Not bad a...[Read More]
FPL Tips Gameweek 9
FPL Tips Gameweek 9 Welcome to FPL Tips Gameweek 9. When making transfers what type of FPL manager are you? Are you the type to punt on last week’s highest scorer and hope lightning strikes twice? Or more of a ‘Steady Eddie’ who favours consistency over explosiveness? Perhaps you forgo that which has passed entirely and instead gaze longingly into your crystal ball in faint hope you’ll unearth a hidden gem, gaining an advantage over your mate who’s usually rubbish at FPL but is somehow kicking the sh@t out of your mini-league aspirations this season. Well, my friends, you are in luck. This wee...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW9
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW9 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW9. Villa winning 0-3 at the Emirates, and Palace scoring 4 were the only real shockers in terms of results in GW8. Meanwhile, it’s been a lonnnnnnng international break, punctuated with made-up injuries and so many positive Covid tests that even a drive to Barnard Castle will likely not be enough this time. If only there were a way to reduce these Covid infections that result from footballers travelling thousands of miles around the world during a global pandemic. I digress. This week...[Read More]
FPL Fixtures Gameweek 9
FPL Fixtures Gameweek 9 Half-term report Ok, so we aren’t even a quarter of the way through yet but in England they call it ‘half-term’ in October (albeit it is now November but who is keeping count anymore), and they do it again in February, go figure. So with that sort of clever math we are calling it that too. Rather than waffle on about a few select teams we have decided to have a quick (ish) one-liner (or two) about how we feel each term is progressing so far. And in the process we have ordered them into some sort of fashion in relation to their next three fixtures. FPL ...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Diary 2020/21
Fantasy Football Diary 2020/21 More hits than Elvis I can’t lie to you it’s not been a great four weeks, either in life nor FPL. Lockdown is back, the rain has been incessant it seems, and my FPL performance and mindset has been amateur at best, as you will soon discover. Still I’ve found a new friend in a heron, discovered Elvis and hopefully lost Trump….and also taken the biggest hit I’ve ever done in FPL. Monday 5 – Sunday 11 October International break. Nothing much exciting happened. The highlight was discovering a new love for Elvis. I’ve never been much of ...[Read More]
