Fantasy League 2021-2022

[MissWinnie]

Rosie, a difficult read this week, I'm afraid Yubby, how on earth did you get Manager of the Week AND sneak up to 5th without me noticing?!!

Seriously, fab read as always and well done bro and Jesh.

Picasso, I'm slightly shocked how many Salah traitors we have in our midst!. 100% with you on that one!

Covid keeping us all on our toes!

[MissWinnie]

Oopsy, somehow managed to post twice. Sorry!

CAPTAIN WATCH 👁👁


Only 4 captains nominated this week and naturally Salah top managers pick with 18 of us having absolutely no intentions on having a punt on anyone else. 😝


1. Watkins 24 points - Dave threw me a curve ball he always has van Dijik but not this week not sure if this is the first time TD has changed Captain since the start of Fantasy League. Anyway well played Dave. 👏👏👏👏

2. Fabianski 22 points - The Boogie Kings vice captain played a blinder.

3. Salah 16 points - Everyone bar TD, AV and Staffs. Special mention for BB and Oz who played Triple Captain token amassing 24 points.

4. Mings 14 points - Staffs.

A quiet few months for our Wizard Oz and Ozstan Villa but now they are back with bang 💣 scoring a glitzy 70 points.💥

I am sure Winnie will be delighted Yubby winning last week and Oz this week. 🤪😜

Runner up only 2 points adrift on 68 points TD with Tri-Score Villa.

👏👏👏👏👏 Great scores.

Winnie entering into the festive spirit 🍻🥃🍺 as she glides into 3rd place, sending a grumpy bah humbug 😠 David down to 4th.

A jubilant Picasso up to 5th.

Whilst Yubby feeling the heat down to 6th.

It’s going to be in the lap of the Gods and more luck than judgement only 5 fixtures remain so I suspect some of us will not be putting a full team out.

Thank you Rosie! Doubly appreciated when you put your time into 2 write ups in a week! A fun read!

Huh, these Aussies have noooo chivalry! If I remember correctly, this is Mr Smartypants, 2nd MoW award. I've not had one ****y tiny hold of the trophy all season! Humph!

Well done Mr Smartypants and Dave.

No press conference from Pep this week making an impoosible manager even impossibler to read!

Good luck to us all this week!

[TrianonDave]

Thank you Rosie, what a time to make Watkins Capt, for once it worked.
Hardly any games this weekend and Van Dyke out i cannot make a sub as they are all out.....hhmm

[samhubball]

This game week is absolutely broken! I transferred in Watkins (along with 1.3m other managers) and I'm hearing its likely only to be the Man City game not postponed today.

Can we pressure the FPL to give us all our chips back or something?! 😂😂😂

[TrianonDave]

Not that I'm any good but i mustered up just 1 point yesterday!!

[bongosdad]

Well done Oz. 👏

Thankyou Rosie. Top report as always 👌

[VillaRosie]

Some long miserable managerial faces in the Fantasy League dugout this week. Uproar at the late cancellation of Villa’s game especially leaving them up the proverbial Fantasy League creek without a paddle. 😠 Winnie and Rosie plying a disgruntled Picasso’s Horlicks with a few nips of whiskey 🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃 hoping to relieve his pain. 😜🤪😝


Although in fairness it must be said a number of our managers coped very impressively with the situation whilst errr some collapsed under the pressure.


Then there was Pep the git who decided this was the week to omit Foden’s name off the team sheet. 😡🥵🤬

Psst Rosie ... I think the whisky must be working ... I think I heard a chuckle from Picasso ... Or was it a hiccup? A brilliant festive report - thank you as always!

Well done Iwuz and Liam and congrats to Harry for being our Christmas no 1. Trouble is, Ive got to sit next to Sam now all Christmas, listening to him moaning how it should have been his!

Decided to risk doing transfers the night before, in case I got distracted/forgot on Saturday morning. Took a 4 point hit for Watkins and Foden!

It really will be a case of Lady Luck for now!

Happy Christmas everyone.
