Hello! Firstly, we’d like to afford you a very warm welcome to Fantasy Football 247, the website that has been designed and created to offer all FPL managers a wide range of help, advice and up-to-date news whilst maintaining a friendly, welcoming and fun community feel.
Please take your time to tour the site and see what is on offer, but allow us to briefly talk you through what we will bring you.
There will be a wide range of core articles published in order to help managers prepare for the upcoming gameweek(s). Namely – Fixtures, Captain’s Stats, Tips, Weekend Team News, Live Game Chat & Saturday and Sunday Matchday Reviews.
We also plan to publish ad hoc articles, such as Interviews with a variety of managers, Player Profiles etc. The infamous and ever-popular Banterbury Leagues will be run by Bench and there will also be twice weekly Prediction Competitions hosted by Potty.
There is of course, an interactive chat room available, which we would encourage you all to post comments on in order to seek advice and help and to reciprocate this to other managers’ and discuss thoughts on your line-up, transfer plans and other issues that affect your FPL team.
To get involved in the chat, you will need to register with Fantasy Football 247 – details of how to do this can be found on the “Register” tab at the top of the page – its very simple. We would also encourage you to set up a “gravatar”, which will then link to your name every time you comment on the site and will make you instantly recognisable at a moment’s glance – this proves especially useful when you are seeking advice and other managers can spot you easily and reply to your posts.
If you are on social media, please follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook – both of which will provide instant information, news, ideas and chat.
Welcome again and we hope you enjoy Fantasy Football 247.
Kop, Floydeth, Inittowinit & Cookie
Welcome to FF247 everyone!!
Cookster, well done to you + all the other peeps, nice to see you up + running :thumbup:
Ha, beat me to it Cookie :thumbup:
Floyd, is that beat not bet ?
We’re still working on his grammar unfort :stupid:
+1 :stupid:
Ha, you guys. Lucky I can edit comments :whatever:
Floyd, thats cheating :finger:
Not when you’re the CTO elleffcee :smirk:
Excellent news on the new site lads,great to see so many of the old faces on here,looking forward to reading all the articles and getting some great tips
Hello brooky! Hope you are well mate? Good to see you as well.
Yep everything tip top here.Hope everything is all good with you ? Can’t wait for the premier league to start again.Weekends just arent the same ! I’m actually buzzing about this new site,hope it all goes well and good luck !!! 😉
Now I know how Potty felt when he found our secret squirrels MLS den.
This site is very swish! Looks like you guys at the helm mean business! Jolly good show chaps.
Just realised Floydeth has ‘secret squirrels’ in his name! haha. I used that term because that’s what the Potster called our hideout. Anyway. Yeah.
Bryan! How’s things fellow Wednesdayite! How’s your season going?
Ey up Alex! My season’s been truly awful. However, the past two weeks have picked up. Gone up about 700k places in that time! (Yes, that kinda tells you how bad my start was).
I’m hoping my Phoenix style recovery will galvanize the Owls into reciprocating in kind. I mean, they probably won’t go up 700k places, but it’s still only November so who knows?
Morning Bryan. Hope you are well. Kop and Cookie might need some persuading but I am pretty certain we will have an MLS tab for the new season. We may need an expert to do a weekly write up too if you fancy it?
That sounds like a hoot Innit! Yeah, sure! Thanks for the offer. I’m almost certainly a one-season wonder, so I’ll take the opportunity to milk it while I can. Kinda like 2 Unlimited did in the 90’s. After all, there’s no limits.
That is a great idea initt, only thing is the world cup is on next summer so we must have something sorted for that……….
Hey Bryan, welcome to the site mate – glad you found us !!
Cheers Cookie. It was nice of you to leave crumbs! I probably shouldn’t have eaten them though. There was a group of innocent tourists behind me who are now probably lost.
Japanese Bryan i have missed you.
In a Undertone way.
Coz your…..

Potty, true story-i did a bit of business with Billy Doherty the undertones drummer last year, real nice bloke
Hey Potzmeister. I’ve been laying low for a few weeks. My season was going so badly I decided to not look at any Fantasy sites, any FISO-esque sites… and put my blinkers on. My team’s subsequently recovered quicker than Ashley Young after a penalty award, so I don’t know what the heck I’m doing here to be honest! 😉 <<<<< I have no idea if that turns into a smiley on this site.
Good to see so many familiar faces/gravatars/names. This must be what the Stone Roses reunion initially felt like. Except there'll probably be some new material.
It didn’t turn into a smiley. I’m going to need a tutorial.
Eddy i can see a name change coming on.
FF 247 i bring you….
DLT Eddy.
Potty
Well done on the site guys,
Cheers Fergie, great to see you mate! Hope you like it – have a look around and let us know what you think!
Like it mate, looking forward to seeing more articles and tips.
I think The Pact deserves a special tab too 😉
Let’s see them all on here contributing and we’ll talk !!!
Deal
To the FF 247 Team
A few words for you all.
Firstly,its great to see the site launched and a new adventure for us all has begun .
Secondly, to be asked onboard the FF 247 Team is a honour for Potty and it is a highlight of my life without doubt,thankyou all so much.
So without further a do.…….
Rip,Tear,Rip,Tear,Ouch….my gaffer tape is finally removed from my mouth and that’s such a relief.
But more importantly…. Pottys Journey is over,coz……
I’m home
Potty
Potty.
I am in mate,that took some setting up.
Will tell the rest of my urchins over the next 2 days,more likely do this for you and 247 on the coach down to Wembley on Tuesday, leaving Lime St at 8am for a night boot off.
That’s as mad as you Potty,calm down calm down.
Hi Guys,
Just popped on to say well done on your great site and all the best. I look forward to reading your articles.
All the best,
Chorls.
Thanks Chorley – no copying now eh?!!!
Hi Cookie
long time no speak. I hope you are well?
Of course not. We’ve got our nice routine now and its working for us.
Great stuff mate! All good here thanks, glad things are going well for you!
I’ve learnt a lot about WordPress over the last 6 months, so if I can help just shout. TTFN.
Thanks Chorley, that’s very kind, although I’m still trying to master “cut & paste” !!
Well hello all,yes you can thank Potty for this who has invited me into all this fun.
Potty who I know as Procky(but Potty will stick is bonkers) no doubt about it but also a loyal friend and he picks his mates very carefully.
I met Potty in Stanley Park,Liverpool by total accident many moons ago.
He was leading a charge of Leeds Lads onto us and boy he packs a punch,we have been soulmates ever since.
But one thing one can’t take away from him is his inspiration which is infectious.
So toffee thommo is the name and thanks for allowing me to join.
Look forward to a informative site and a crack along the way.
E.F.C.
Welcome onboard Toffee – I wondered where the Stanley Park story was going until you mentioned the brawl!!
Good to have you around pal, hope you enjoy the site and banter!
Cookie
Evening all :stupid:
Nice one…I’ve got the emoticons right first time!!
Evening Kop
Evening Fergie…how’re things?
All good Kop, the new site looks good mate. Well done to you all.
Hopefully my team can start to do something on the back of the site :shake:
It won’t be long. Not having Suarez is killing you.
Might need to take a sizeable hit…it’s not like I have anything to lose at this stage!
Could save your season? What’s the plan?
There isn’t one at the moment…
I haven’t given my team any thought over the last week!
Fair enough Kop. I’m looking to do 2 transfers. Lukaku and Chester out, I want a united defender but can’t decide who. Failing that arsenal or Liverpool cover at the back (any tips?)
Kop I thought you were going to hand your team over to me, Init and Cookie :shiftyeyes:
Fergie, we’ve got a number of tricky fixtures coming up so I’m not sure I’d go with a Pool defender!!
Am sorely tempted by Evans..
I’m not sure if I could do that secret squirrel!!
