Jonty Joins As Community Manager

Fantasy Football Scout is delighted to announce that Jonty has joined the team as Community Manager from this week. Jonty has been a fantastic contributor to the site for several seasons but now joins the ranks, along with Paul, on a more permanent basis as Fantasy Football Scout continues to grow.

Jonty will be dedicated to working with the community over the season. His first task will be to recruit a team of moderators to work with us on HomeCrowd, the new comments system, to ensure that this new system helps to improve community interaction over the summer and for the season ahead.

He will also be responsible for such matters as Fantasy Football Scout cup tournaments, the Fantasy Football Scout Leagues, the weekly newsletter for members and for a series of articles that will draw on the very best community contributions and activity as the weeks roll by. It’s also pretty certain that he’ll continue to contribute to the ScoutCast, of course, bringing further community insight to the regular nonsense provided by Granville and myself.

I trust you’ll join me in welcoming Jonty as Fantasy Football Scout’s new Community Manager.

    Pulis to Madrid, me to Stoke...it all seems the most natural fit. That is until I find a pig's head in my locker and Madrid's midfield end up watching a ball being hoofed over their heads to new boy Juan Walters.

does anyone know the rule about pens where player stops his run up? thinking of berbs this season and balotellis against siena.

they seem hugely unfair to goalies and should be banned.

    so there must be continuous movement once you begin your run up. i dont see how thats possible with the pens ive just mentioned. they are definitely stationary at some point. im pretty sure run up feints were banned ust before 2010 world cup.

Professional Footballers' Association chief Gordon Taylor says the union is looking into Sunderland's disciplinary measures against several players.

Black Cats boss Paolo Di Canio said last week he had fined seven players and has threatened to get rid of players who have stepped out of line.

Taylor said Di Canio could not be "a law unto himself". He added: "It's our job to assess the situation and see if it is acceptable or if the players can appeal."

  Get used to this. I live nearish Swindon and this story was regularly on the news. He was very strict.
  
  I was reading though that O'shea and Colback are his two current favourites...both appear to buy into his authoritarian approach. Which from a fantasy football perspective makes OShea at least one to consider for next season if priced reasonably.
