Kops Fantasy Football Tips Game-week 17
Kops Fantasy Football Tips Game-week 17 Bah Humbug! Christmas is cancelled! Given the mood of many fantasy managers I suspect many would like to cancel Christmas. At this stage I would like to quote NIN from Sunday night, however I fear my editor wouldn’t be too impressed with the flavour of the language. So instead I’ll paraphrase, ‘this is a crap season’! But for those amongst you who share NIN’s sentiment fear not, for the festive period provides us with four opportunities in the space of 16 days to get our seasons back on track. When writing this article we typically focus on the next six ...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Trends From The Top – GW15
Fantasy football Trends From The Top – GW15 Welcome to this week’s edition of Trends From the Top. While Crystal Palace and Everton have yet to play, I certainly have been kicking myself as I decided this was the week to bring in Kolarov (1 point). I also thought that this was a great time to bring in Ozil and that wouldn’t have been too bad if I hadn’t traded Arnautovic (16 points) while taking a 4 point hit. Well let’s take a look at our new leaders and see what they have been up to. [divider_1px] Who was the most captained player by the top ten for Gameweek 15? This week, 30% of the t...[Read More]
Captain Picks Fantasy Football Game-week 17
Captain Picks Fantasy Football Game-week 17 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16 I’ve been summoned out of my winter slumber to provide this captains article to you all. Some of you may remember that I would write the weekly MLS column here… but since my Portland Timbers won the title, everything has been a bit foggy (could be the scotch or actual Portland fog), and I have to wonder if the events of this last year actually happened. But they assure me that I was indeed a writer here at one point, and that I’m signed on to be a writer for a while into the future. I think we celebrated a...[Read More]
Fantasy Football FF247 Team Game-week 16
Fantasy Football FF247 Team Game-week 16 There are so many words that could be used to describe this game-week and in particular our boo-boo behind the scenes when getting our team ready. However instead of sitting here and making a bunch of excuses, all we will say is that a mistake happened and we are moving on and hoping that we are able to reverse this season. There comes a time when a committee must put their collective foot down and say “enough is enough!” And they did. They all resigned! Suffice to say we won’t let them get away that easily and so they were all reinsta...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Fixtures Game-week 17
Fantasy Football Fixtures Game-week 17 In the words of Sir Bob “It’s Christmas time, and there’s no need to be afraid”… Well, we can only assume Bob never played fantasy football as we can tell you that there certainly is! It’s time to plump up your squads as rotation bites at this time of year. The seasoned fantasy vets will be well aware of this but for anyone new then you may have been able to sail through September to now with a threadbare squad of 12 or so ‘playing players’ but the upcoming schedule will find you out if you aren’t prep...[Read More]
Team Talk Fantasy Football Game-week 16
Team Talk Fantasy Football GW16 Welcome to GW16 and let’s face it, if it comes anywhere near to matching the drama of GW15 then we’re in for a fun and unpredictable ride – it started of course with City losing at Stoke, then Villa came close to a win at Southampton, those who benched Mahrez were placed on suicide watch, Chelsea lost at home to Bournemouth and finally Newcastle beat Liverpool. United of course drew 0-0 and Lukaku scored again. Some things went as expected. Everton finished off GW15 on Monday and kick off GW16 as they visit Norwich on Saturday lunchtime. Just f...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Pottys Predictions Game-week 15
Fantasy Football Pottys Predictions Game-week 15 So now we find ourselves in December and how quick has this year has gone? For me this time of the year is a busy one as i’m busy hiding from relatives who give you poor Crimbo presents – for God’s sake who wants a steak tenderiser when you’re a vegetarian? I mean come on Aunty Edna sort it out. So last weekend we all played “Potty’s Pontoon” and only one of you tried to fiddle my casino and that was Pathetico Morbid who got sussed so my croupier Angela Ace threw him out. But getting back to the card tab...[Read More]
