Barry and Paul’s Predictions GW17
Barry and Paul’s Predictions GW17 Welcome to Barry and Paul’s Predictions GW17. Another week, another obscure first goal scorer. While most went with a Chelsea player and in most cases a Chelsea win, it was Marco Arnautovic who popped up to disappoint in the Hammers surprise 1-0 victory over Chelsea. Special mention to Swirly who did correctly predict a West Ham win! 8 of the 10 matches finished in a draw or a win by a 1 goal margin, Spurs 5-1 destruction of Stoke (thank you Harry!!) the only standout scoreline. LAST WEEKS WINNERS! Last week there was an administrative error in the...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 16
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 16 Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 16. Last week the author of this short article waxed lyrical about the return of ‘The Lord’ and Big Sam. Unfortunately we have no returning greats this week but we doubt you could top those two numpties anyway. Chelsea, yet again, kick off our game-week at lunchtime on Saturday as they visit a West Ham side who have not been revitalised by their new manager. Hardly surprising as it is David Moyes. 3pm on Saturday afternoon brings us five more games. None of which are likely to set pulses racing. M...[Read More]
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team Gameweek 16
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team Gameweek 16 Welcome to the FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team Gameweek 16. 61pts. A green arrow. Our highest overall rank (151,974) of the season since GW1. On the whole we’re pretty happy and there’s nothing we can really moan about but given who’s writing this week’s intro we’ll find something to moan about! While 61pts was quite a decent score it’s worth noting that our captain, Eden Hazard, scored 30 of those points all on his own. Although, after last week’s debacle he had some making up to do! The only other players to contribute any meaningful points...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 16
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 16 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 16. This is the first Tips article by my good self in some months due to me hoodwinking the FF247 lot into thinking that I’ve been busy this autumn! I jest, this is the first proper chance I’ve had to sit and focus solely on fantasy matters for any reasonable amount of time. And right in time for the busy Christmas period. Stars align I guess. And why do I have to follow Bry’s article? I don’t know how to put this across but that’s like someone really poor following someone really brilliant (See? I can’t even example r...[Read More]
Barry and Paul’s Predictions GW16
Barry and Paul’s Predictions GW16 Welcome to Barry and Paul’s Predictions GW16. Normal service resumed in GW15 with no majorly surprising results. In terms of the scores, Liverpool’s emphatic 1-5 win away to Brighton was the standout victory, Man City scraped a 2-1 over West Ham with many predicting a landslide victory that never came. Dwight Gayle popped up with the first goal of the GW in Newcastle’s 3-1 defeat to Chelsea, proving once again that predicting the first scorer of the GW is actually quite tricky! LAST WEEKS WINNERS! Top spot for the week was shared by MBD, DenPerryDi...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 16
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 16 2017/18 Welcome to Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 16. GW15 saw explosive returns for an old Captain Tips favourite Philippe Coutinho. His goal and 3 assists playing an integral part in Liverpool’s demolition of Brighton. Not that he didn’t get any help though, Mo Salah chipped in with an assist of his own, and Roberto Firmino continued to bemuse non-owners with 2 goals in what has proved to be a frustratingly unpredictable campaign. Perhaps the biggest story of the past two gameweeks has been Jesse Lingard’s 3 goals and 3 as...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 16
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 16 Welcome to Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 16. And sort of GW17 too. And sort of GW18 also! The reason we say this is because there is another midweek feast of games coming up straight after GW16. We may only just be into December but the silly season is clearly in full swing already. And to prove it here is your fun fact of the day: between GW16 beginning this Saturday and GW22 ending on the 3rd of January there are 26 calendar days. On 17 of those there is a Premier League game occuring. There are only 9 days without one. Rotation, any...[Read More]
