Often wondered about the most valuable team. The most valuable at the moment is worth £115.9 million which is some increase on the starting point of £100 million our teams might be worth an extra £3-4 million, so I am guessing they must front load their team then make it up with cheap players because the points total is quite low.


Been playing rather fast and loose with my points the last few weeks trying to speculate to accumulate resulting in an epic fail.


Going off topic does anyone hear from States? I just wondered how he and his family are I think he lives in Florida and the virus is particularly bad in that region.

Likewise I hope Oz and Yubby and their families are keeping safe and well.

My team is worth 108m.

Mine's £107m which I guess goes to show value isn't everything!

Rosie, I sometimes wonder if those managers whose teams are extremely high value just play just for that reason - when I've had a nose at their teams, they often have a ridiculous number of transfers that make Bongo look like a mere amateur :) I just looked, and the 2nd most valuable team in the league has done 133 transfers this season.

I hope Statesey and Yubby are ok too :heart: Ozfan is fine and well - still a Mr Smartypants though, unfortunately! :blue: ;D

You see? It hasn’t done Bongo any good >;)

I've taken a - 8 point hit as I'm completely out the running for anything other that the Meanest most AVERAGE team of the year.

Antonio as captain. Deeney as vice captain. Jinxing them to the maximum, just like I did with Aubameyang last week. Some heroes don't wear capes

Preliminary Observations


Must wait for official confirmation but pretty sure our champion in waiting is Picasso.


Not too sure but Bongo may have caught Uncle Tony and Winnie likewise may have caught David but stress not sure if any bonus points are due.



Special mention to Sam selflessly captaining Antonio who was yellow carded and took off after 45 mins amassing zero points.😝

At least Blues fan Deeney must be ecstatic in the knowledge next season he will be in the same division as them.😛😜


Will write the review up tomorrow.

Picasso hasn’t got long to bathe in winners glory with the 2020/2021 kicking off on the 12 September. 🤪

Thank you so much Rosie for the most ludicrously busy season. Well done to Picasso, amazing score and a brilliant last game week. Well done to Harry and Bongo too.

Will be interesting with transfers in and out in real life and whether they finally reconsider Sterling as an attacker and Laundstrum as a midfielder!

Shame there's no Bournemouth, Watford and Norwich players to choose from 😂 but we can all look to the Baggies team for the big scores next year 😂😂😂

Rosie, I feel like I need to be reading this wearing a ludicrously expensive evening dress, while all the boys are in black tie. Absolutely brilliant! Thank you so much for all your hard work and top reports - I know how much time they take to compile, and write, so really really appreciate what you do for us all. Here's your writer's gold medal. :star:

Big congratulations to Picasso! :star: You held your nerve under pressure. A well deserved end to a fantastic season for you.

Well done also to our Manager of the Season - Harry! :star: An amazing inaugural season, and it could have gone either way. You've shown the rest of us up, good and proper!

A big thank you to Gornal for gallantly collecting the season's Drongo award, thereby sparing the rest of our blushes!

And well done Dazzy for your Manager of the week award!

Last but not least well done to Bongo, not only on his bronze medal but scooping the Footy Mad Fantasy Manager of the Year award on securing 1st place! I'm sure you'll never mention it again. :P

Can't wait until next season when we can go through the fun and agony all over again! Wishing you all a fab safe distance hols.

Wow! What an honour!!

Thank you so much for keeping the competition alive and interesting Rosie with all your amazing reports and updates. Congratulations to Harry too. That was a really close race.

Yes, I gambled on three Man City players (and it could have gone so wrong) but they were playing Norwich! De Bruyne was always going to fill his boots if he was on the pitch. However, I was nearly outdone by Jurgen *Klep* who rested Trent and Salah! DOH!

Fortunately I didn’t pay too much attention to it on the Sunday as I was distracted by a certain three other matches. That was hell!

That was definitely my best season but the fact that I didn’t make the top 40k and was well over 200 points behind the overall winner suggests there are tricks and strategies to this game that I know nothing about.....but then clearly none of you guys do either!

Thanks once again Rosie. We go again soon and the problem with winning is the only way is down!
