Grab, Avoid or Bore Off!
Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! You know what it means when we have a long time between fixtures… that’s right! A new edition of grab, avoid or bore off. Once again we ask our legends of the written word (FPL that is) to share their opinions on some of the questions that have been bugging many FPL managers over the last couple of days. As always we will put them on the spot on certain topics and allow for a bit of fun also. So sit back and relax as the Three Amigos provide the answers to every one of life’s questions. [clear]Grab – You need this player on your squad. Avoid – It’s a ...[Read More]

Let us talk you through the reasons we decided t...[Read More]

With a week somewhat co...[Read More]
Fantasy Football FF247 Team Gameweek 22

Kane delivered for us but it was Hazard that hurt most which is quite ironic as the reason we took the hit was in fear of Hazard hu...[Read More]
