Life is a breeze for the top Portuguese
Life is a breeze for the top Portuguese The season may be over, but the memories are still fresh and for one FF247 member, it was an amazing season. Alberto Mendonca, best known to us as Albertini led his team Celtinha to 2,354pts which resulted in an overall global ranking of 113. His final gameweek score of 49pts saw him reach 113 which was fittingly his highest position of the season and also led him to win the Portuguese league and finish 2nd in the FF247 league. Albertini has been a solid and much loved member of our community, regularly contributing on the message boards, both asking for...[Read More]

Captains Picks Fantasy Football Gameweek 38
Captains Picks Fantasy Football Gameweek 38 – Fantasy Premier League 2014/15 Ah, the unpredictability of a meaningless fixture.

Romelu Lukaku’s hat-trick in 2012/13’s loopy 5-5 finale with Man Utd is burned permanently onto the retinas of FPL managers across the land (Most infamously, costing runner-up Kelvin Travers the title that year). There hasn’t been a goalless draw on the last day of the Premier League since Hull and Liverp...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek 38
Fantasy Football Fixtures Gameweek 38 And so there was one! Wow. It seems like only yesterday that we wrote this with 38 glorious weeks ahead of us. And glorious they were. The up’s and down’s we’ve all been through. We’ve lived it together. Sometimes in good humour, other times in glorious technicolour with expletives at the ready! There’s 1 left though and it could prove crucial to many a mini-league. It’s ‘squeaky bum time’ as someone famously said.
