Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 30
Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 30 Welcome to Fantasy Football Fixture Analysis Gameweek 30. There was a line in a movie once, a real classic you might have seen called “Demolition Man”. You remember that movie? Stallone was a superstar playing a cop in the future, and instead of trying to channel any of the great acting he’d done earlier in his career, he basically just copy/pasted his persona from Tango and Cash into every scene and collected his paycheck. But he did have a quote in that movie that applies to my participation in today’s article: “Send a maniac to catch a maniac.” ...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 29
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 29 Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 29. Back so soon? Life as an FPL manager can be brutal! First world problems and all that, eh?! Three deadlines in the space of 9 days can take its toll mentally, especially when you have to try and factor in the upcoming blanks and doubles, and trying to do so by playing a bit of a guessing game at this stage. Back at it we are though, and so are Spurs and Arsenal on Saturday lunchtime, as they now seemingly enter a battle for 3rd / 4th spot with each other and also Man Utd, not quite the battle ...[Read More]
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW29
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW29 No Kun do… When the week begins with the ever consistent Jimenez blanking against bottom club Huddersfield and then Doherty conceding a clean sheet in the dying minutes you could be forgiven for thinking it would be another one of those weeks. The truth is, it very nearly was. It took another attacking full back to pull us back from the brink really, as TAA weighed in with an unusual hat-trick of assists, a clean sheet and full bonus points for an unexpected haul of 18. Just as well really as the rest of them were a bit lacklustre. Digne got us a cle...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 29
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 29 Welcome to Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 29. “What’s the point in reading a Captain Picks article when players like VvD somehow end up being the top scorer after unpredictable flurries in the final 10 minutes?” I actually just made that up. On reflection, it’s an oddly specific quote, so you’d have probably guessed as much… I digress. However, if somebody really did say that, it’d be pretty justified frustration. The previous Gameweeks’ top scorers lately? Don’t ask. It’s a far-from-illustrious list: Deulofeu, Sterling, Laporte, King, ...[Read More]
Most Humiliating European Defeats for English Clubs
Most Humiliating European Defeats for English Clubs Arsenal recently tasted embarrassment when they lost their Round of 32 First Leg tie against BATE Borisov, 1-0. The Belarussian side sit a mere 120th in the Euro Club Index, while the Gooners occupy 15th. Can Arsenal turn it around in the second leg? You’ll find the latest odds, here: https://www.betfair.com/exchange/plus/football/competition/2005 In honour of this humiliation, here are some of the other most embarrassing defeats for English clubs in the Europa League… 2017/18: Everton 1-5 Atalanta Everton were already eliminated from t...[Read More]

Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 28 Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 28. Back so soon? Hopefully these random deadlines will be playing havoc with your mini-league rivals. And equally, hopefully not with you. Before we move on then, it’s probably worth noting that the next deadline is on Saturday, a mere 3 1/2 days from now. That one will be less of a surprise, but it’s always worth knowing. Tuesday looks like a parade of the perennially mid-table / relegation battlers. Cardiff could actually go within 5 points of Everton with a win and we aren’t ...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW29
Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW29 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW29. What a cracker GW28 was! Some fantastic goals (Mané, Schär… Trippier!) and some fantastic results. Liverpool showed us they mean business in their 5-0 walloping of Watford, Everton put 3 past a usually strong at home Cardiff and Arsenal matched Liverpool with 5 goals of their own, although failed once again to keep a clean sheet: muppets. My brother from another mother MattX scored a healthy 12pts this week, thanks in no small part to being the only one to correctly predict Demarai Gray as the f...[Read More]
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW28
FF247 Fantasy Football Site Team GW28 Ashley does Dallas… We’ve had indifferent game-week’s, we’ve had bad game-week’s and then we’ve had this game-week. A thought probably shared by a good many. We began with the faint hope of having a solid 11 plus a possible sub, and ended up with 9. A thought probably shared by a good many. We began with a seemingly solid captain choice, he came home with 4 points, we didn’t even answer the door. A thought probably shared by a good many. We did manage to cobble together a hat-trick of sorts, we got a full set; a cl...[Read More]
