Some of matches have been so unpredictable that even a deluxe Fantasy Scout membership can't guarantee you top three.

That's why I've got the Super deluxe membership plan. New computer arriving this week too, so should be back in the game for the last quarter.

Just when I thought I was getting a decent score for once I looked in the H2H league and saw I was versing Anton.
He has virtually a second full team to still play... I'll never get off the bottom.

I don't normally look at the H2H
But I just checked and this week I'm playing something called Cheatbot 3000.

That Haaland/Watkins swap has gone from being a nail-biting punt to a bottomless Old Fashioned in the Waikiki lounge for Anton and Ben the smooth rascals.

You're in the lead for manager on the month Godot
Well played

Thanks Steve, but we're only one week in. I'll f**k up. You're also only four points behind me.

I've been a bit slack with the presentations this season, but there doesn't seem a lot of interest anyway. Anton won last month, but he posts so infrequently I'm not sure he deserves one... Be nice if you won it to be honest - or Ben - or Goodlad.

Just been trying to think of a team name - bit late I know.

My first choice is still 1. but it's too many letters.

1. My milkshake brings all the boys to Trossard
2. Wan Bissaka, Two Bissaka
3. Willian it was really nothing
4. This land is Haaland
5. Eye of the Dier
6. Knocking on Heaven's Dier
7. Another brick in the Walcott
8. Here comes the Sun Heung-Min
9. Easy like Sunday Moura

The only ones that fit are 4. and 5.

I like 4 best

.................... - or Goodlad.

❓ Then moi, in that case. 🙄

Good work from Godot last week, I need to use my bench boost more wisely next year.

Oy Thynne - keep thi nose art

Eeee lad, don't like t'thought of t'competition?

Okay, time for someone else to feel the pressure of leading the pack, being in 2nd until the last week has served Steve Sunshine well in the past so I thought I might give it a go. Probably didn't need to tinker this week but the urge was too much and adds to the player budget.

I think anyone in top 5 still has a shout if they can avoid the same line up of the leader/s and have an inspired week or two. Although it feels at a more advanced stage, being April, there are a whole nine gameweeks left with a few teams still being owed an extra game somewhere, so gaps of less than a hundred are quite closeable still.

How about 200+.............do I have a chance, do you think? I got rid of Salah, if that helps

Looks like I might actually win a H2H this week - thank you Stephen 😁

Without wishing to tempt fate, I'm hopeful I might do so as well. for only the second time in eight weeks. Currently one point ahead with three Arsenal players to come (if selected) while my opponent, Godot, has one different Arsenal player to come. Barring a scenario involving red cards, own goals & missed penalties surely....

Sounds good, but from past experience Godot seems to pull something extraordinary out of the bag - the man leads a charmed life as far as the FPL is concerned - Good Luck!
