Team Talk Fantasy Football GW6
Team Talk Fantasy Football GW6 Welcome to GW6 and if it’s anything like as dramatic as GW5 was then we’re in for a real treat. Well, there is every chance as Saturday is derby day in both Liverpool and London – its also a three-day gameweek, which is very convenient in some ways, but painful in others – but we’ll come to that later. Our gameweek kicks off Saturday lunchtime up at Anfield for the “Friendly Derby”…do they really still call it that? Its Liverpool vs Everton and it doesn’t get any bigger than that…..in Liverpool. We then ...[Read More]
Scoring aint boring when you are winning – Fantasy Football 2014/15 Interview
Scoring aint boring when you are winning – Fantasy Football 2014/15 Interview We are very honoured today to welcome a very special guest into the FF247 studios. To be the best in your local geographic area is an amazing accomplishment. To be the best in your country is something most of us will continually strive for, but never achieve. To be the best in the world is just a dream, unlikely ever to be realised for 99.99% of us. But that is where our guest today finds himself. Our very own Tom Farmer, or as he is known on the FF247 boards as “scoringaintboring” finds himself after 5GWs as ...[Read More]

Onto this weekends beauty so let’s play….
Kops Fantasy Football Tips Game-week 6 – Differentials
Kops Fantasy Football Tips Game-week 6 – Differentials We probably say this every season, but it really does feel as though it’s taking a long time for things to settle down in this season’s FPL. Take a look at the defences and you’ll see that Southampton, Villa & Burnley have all kept three clean sheets but in all honesty you’re unlikely to have fielded Villa & Burnley defenders in all of the games in which they kept clean sheets. The midfield has proved a little more straightforward but picking forwards has proved a nightmare with Diego Costa the only big hitter to consistently...[Read More]
Captains Picks Gameweek 6
Captain’s Picks Fantasy Football Gameweek 6 – Fantasy Premier League 2014/15 We’ve all been there. “If only there were two of me.” Your multiple selves could alternate going to work or if you’re workaholics get a job each and rake in twice the pay. You could step out onto the tennis court and practice both your serve and return in the same exchange. Heck, you could even become the next Proclaimers. With so many benefits, is it any wonder Narcissus fell in love with his own reflection? Last week two FPL bosses, we’ll call them Joe and Joel to avoid conf...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek 6
Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek 6 – Fantasy Premier League 2014 Your weekly ‘Fixtures’ article is having an overhaul! Nothing drastic but we feel that it may be easier and more pertinent to concentrate on the next three fixtures of each team rather than spread it too thinly over six fixtures. Time moves so quickly in fantasy terms and a hot property now may be a dead duck come five weeks time so we are going to keep it tighter, which may hopefully be of more use to you. We will still display the next six fixtures for each team in the fixture tracker graphic but in our anal...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 5
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Game-week 5 – Fantasy Premier League 2014/15 The deadline bell has rung and your decisions are now final! This could actually be a tough week for fantasy managers. A lot of the usual, ‘obvious’ candidates are away from home and even those that aren’t have difficult games on paper. Arsenal, Liverpool, Southampton, Man Utd and Chelsea are all on the road while Swansea and Man City are at home but are by no means guaranteed anything, facing Southampton and Chelsea respectively. QPR and Stoke kick us off at 12.45pm in the early Saturday game...[Read More]
FF247 Team Gameweek 5
Fantasy Football FF247 Team Gameweek 5 GW4 went pretty well for us as we scored 64pts, 12pts above the average. Bearing in mind we captained the benched Raheem Sterling, who’s 30min cameo produced just 2pts for us, we were relatively happy, if somewhat annoyed with Brendan Rodgers! Our main performers were Fabregas, Costa and Di Maria late on in the gameweek, while Aguero chipped in with a goal and Alderweireld grabbed us a clean sheet on his debut. Poor returns from Mannone, Moreno, Wilson, Siggy and Welbeck were disappointing, but everyone has players with low scoring weeks and are par...[Read More]
