Fantasy Football Pottys Predictions Game-week 32
Fantasy Football Pottys Predictions Game-week 32 So while Potty is relaxing and downing the San Miguels in sunny Spain his staff remain hard at work, holding the fort and wondering if the Don will enter his own competition this week! Probably too busy running the Strip Bingo down in the local bar, bless him. So while Potty ties another handkerchief to his head and dusts down his Union Jack speedos, we have to battle on. Before we look at this week’s competition, let’s very briefly look back to GW31 and “Demolition Derby”. Entries were sparse but our winner was “NI...[Read More]
Captain Picks Fantasy Football Game-week 32
Captain Picks Fantasy Football Game-week 32 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16 Since I don’t have to write an MLS article this week because of their extended DGW schedule, I figured I may as well write up the weekly FPL captains article. Also, I wanted to get my turn on the capo’s doorknob done quickly so that I didn’t get stuck having to write the DGW version of this piece. That’s just too much pressure. And I feel that my tendencies in picking capos ranges from the obvious to the completely unexpected – and I honestly believe that if I were to write this all out for a DGW… pe...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Fixtures Game-week 32
Fantasy Football Fixtures Game-week 32 What was I to do? The wife was going to be out of town all week, leaving me at home with our two young boys. I was housebound for a whole week of evenings and I needed a plan. So I made a list. Idea number one – “Buy a workout DVD”. Maybe one of those intense P90X ones. Yeah, that’d be great I thought. I could lose a load of flab, and maybe even rediscover a noticeable boundary between my chin and my neck. But wait. What was I thinking? I live in Texas, and so even at an “obese” BMI by UK standards, I was still the skinny one in my new home. Yep. Exercise...[Read More]
Playing the WC prior to DGW37
Playing the WC prior to DGW37 – Your Honour, the Plaintiff would like to change their plea! – We’re on final allegations, counsel. – The Plaintiff is well aware of that, but new evidence has just arrived. – And what’s that? – Well respectfully your Honour, another double game week has just been announced! – Which are the teams involved? – Everton and Crystal Palace your Honour. – Humm … well, reluctantly, I’ll allow it. Well, well, another DGW! Just the two teams involved but a DGW nonetheless. So, they still blank on GW35 but hey they play 4 tim...[Read More]
Playing the DGWs with a Difference – Wildcard in GW32!!
Playing the DGWs with a Difference – Wildcard in GW32!! I had planned to play my Wildcard in GW 33 in order to play the Bench Boost chip in GW 34. As I looked for a few calculated moves that would be good for GW32 I noticed that there were some teams and players that I felt had huge potential that week who weren’t in my existing team. This sparked me to consider what it would be like to Wildcard for GW32 and develop a plan that would prepare my team well for the weeks around the doubles. The major danger here is players getting injured during GW’s 32 & 33 leading up to the doub...[Read More]
Playing the DGWs with no Wildcard
[three_fourth padding=”0 20px 0 0″] Embed from Getty Images [/three_fourth]Many will be reading this with a wildcard in their pockets, comfortable with not having to hit for DGW players leading up to DGW34 & 37. That’s nice for you, I’m truly happy for you, honest!! Sadly, my wildcard pocket is empty though I do still have my Bench Boost and Triple Captain chips to use over the next few weeks. For a quick summary, I played my Wildcard in GW21 for a couple of reasons – my rank was shocking, the deficit to my mini-league leader was too much, there were 5/6 players I didn’t own wh...[Read More]
