March Claims FPL Crown

After yet another tense final day, Fantasy Football Scout member, Simon March (aka “Dufflinks”) has claimed the Fantasy Premier League crown.

While the day didn’t quite match Tom Fenley’s single point drama of last season, Simon’s lead was put under real threat by Jon Sumner, aka “Jinswick” who, at the half way stage, looked as though he was going snatch top spot at the death.

Jon had transferred in Theo Walcott and Diego Costa and both stormed to handsome hauls to see him close the gap and claim second spot. However, unfortunately for Jon, he chose to put the armband on Costa rather than Walcott and, in the end, Sergio Aguero’s late goal for Simon ensured that he held on to win by a 21-point margin.

The day brought an end to what has been an outstanding season for Fantasy Football Scout community members, who have tussled for superiority at the top of the rankings for many weeks.

Simon (Dufflinks) has been on these pages since 2012, while Jon (Jinswick) goes back even further. With Kev Gleave, Mariusz Fyrstenberg, Jack Wain, Stuart Greenacre and AbuBakar Siddiq also members of our leagues or posters on the site, allegiances have been split as we entered the final Gameweeks. Those guys all claimed top ten finishes.

Huge congratulations go out to Simon, who, after rising to the summit back in Gameweek 23, becomes the second full Fantasy Football Scout member to claim the crown after Tom’s victory last season.

We will be catching up with Simon in the end of season ScoutCast next week so look out for that and be sure to listen in.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Devastating to finish just outside the Top 1K after being inside it from GW16 to GW33, but overall a great season.

    Thanks to all here for the advice, tips, articles etc. Great community on here. Also congrats to Simon March and Jinswick, I was cheering on for Jin when it looked like he was ahead at half time, things didn't pan out though.

    Bring on next season! 🙂

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years

      🙁 Sorry to hear Nick, but still you've had a great season all-around man! You've been up there with a stellar rank all year, top end stuff mate 🙂

      1. Nickofoz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years

        Cheers mate! Thanks for posting all the price changes 😀

        1. Zasa
          • 9 Years

          No worries man 😉

  2. Shifty
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    What a great season of FPL we've had! While it was only second full season and first full season as a member, I've come to appreciate the tactical and strategic thinking the game needs (not forgetting luck too)

    Finished 1,044th and abit of a did last gw for me selling Hazard and Kane for Silva and Benteke but still very happy and proud of my season. Huge thanks and appreciation to Mark and the mods for running a tight ship, the community and of course the DZ!

    Great to be part of such a great group of fellas. Seeing the camaraderie here through the high and lows of the season has been a fantastic experience. We have lost at least one good man this season but have definitely grown stronger as a community.

    Look forward to cracking that gw1 template with you lot!

    1. Hyperion
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Despite my season ending in disappointment, I have to say it's been a much more entertaining one than the previous season. More variety, not as much of a template and the more attentive players like us have been rewarded more often for doing our homework.

      1. Shifty
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Yup. Last season was definitely the "season of the casual" for me. I was semi casual but the fella who won my ML last season with overall rank of 300, barely made the top 100k!

    2. coran2123
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Great finish nonetheless, very unlucky about the Hazard situation though- we've come to learn how truthful Mourinho's press conferences are 😉

      1. Shifty
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah... Trolled by Jose all season lol. See you in pre season if you're around

        1. coran2123
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Definitely, see you there

  3. Hyperion
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Lost by 3 points in my work league :(. Final rank 1651. Congrats to everyone who won their MLs or got the rank they were after.

    1. Hyperion
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      If basically came down to Ramsey (me) vs. Cazorla...if either of those Ramsey efforts had gone in...

      1. coran2123
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Congratulations on the rank though, Arsenal mids doing our heads in since day 1!

        1. Hyperion
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          In hindsight, I should've got Walcott 😆

          1. coran2123
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 11 months ago

            'Almost' got him in 😉

            1. Hyperion
              • 12 Years
              8 years, 11 months ago

              If it weren't for Hazard's teeth...

  4. coran2123
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Hope everyone had a successful year!

    Finished with a rank of 1551, which I'd like to thank everyone here (especially the DZ-ers) for it. Previously my last best rank was top 200k, so I'd say it was quite an improvement.

    I'd also like to point out the highlight of my GW38.. my ridiculous Charlie Adam punt ended up being my highest scoring player 😆 A worthy consolation prize I suppose.

    Onto the next season!

    1. Hyperion
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Congrats on such a big improvement!

    Has anyone taken more hits and has a higher OR than me?

    Wanted to say a big thanks to everyone who helped me on this site and provides hours of reading and entertainment.

    I only played fantasy football once about 9 years ago and not this format so you lot have been invaluable. Especially the DZ!

    Ended up winning the two leagues I was in, despite a crappy OR of 350k ish.

    Will miss the weekly scoutcasts!

  13. All about the galacticos
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Darn it, lost by 1 pts in my league
    To my rival who had Gerard.
    Liverpool lose 6-1, and Gerard gets 2 bonus pts!
    In comparison charlie adam scores a goal and assist with ZERO bonus bts!
    Does the bonus system factor sentimentality into it's equation?

    Anyways, just want to send out a big thanks to all those on this site, your comments have taken me to best finish to date (15k). Its the first year i've used this site (not full member tho), and has helped no end.

    Onward and upward!

    1. Connor's Calling
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      That's actually really unlucky dude. You're taking it pretty well.

      To lose on bonus points sucks ass.

      Best of luck for next year

      1. All about the galacticos

        thanks dude.
        I think it's just good to improve year on year.
        its like, ahem, striving toward nirvana lol.
        15k is personal best for me, will aim for top 10k next year.
        And hopefully be up there with you guys in time future.

    First season in the DZ (moved to the U.S. 8months ago) and wanted to thank everyone for their help.

    Always get a response and normally pretty good advice (!)

    Top 550 rank and ML wins. Good enough for me

    1. Nobodinho
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Congrats mate

      1. Connor's Calling

        • 14 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks man.

        Means 4 out of 8 seasons in the top 1k which in over the moon with.

        As ever though...ml win by far the most important.

        Couldn't have done it without the help on here

        1. gravless
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          by definition then, YOU didn't win your mini-league.

          1. Connor's Calling
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            8 years, 11 months ago

            Agreed-to an extent.

            Knowing how to use the info provided on here still a real art form though. Not mastered it yet!

            1. Connor's Calling
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 14 Years
              8 years, 11 months ago

              For instance...this week...
              Lukaku vs Walcott - both mini bandwagons but with pretty different outcomes. I never even considered Theo but glad I didn't get Romelu for a hit!

              1. BeachBadger
                • 10 Years
                8 years, 11 months ago

                Thats it isnt it. Hate when people complain saying things like this place is terrible for suggesting Lukaku. Then saying that getting Walcott was all their own initiative.

        2. Nobodinho
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Yup, I was 799k last season before I found this site. The community here is amazing.

  18. Zasa
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Red arrow 🙁 But managed to stay right in the whisker of the top 30k! Wasn't my goal for my first season, but I'll take it anyway 🙂 How's everyone?

    1. Nobodinho
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      That's far better than my first season 😆

      Finished top 2k 🙂 My goal for this season was just winning my ML, didn't expect to finish top 10k.

      1. Zasa
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Top 2k? Blimey, that's a massive rank James. Well done mate, chuffed 🙂

        1. Nobodinho
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

        That's great to hear CD. Wow, that is mighty close man! Must be like a point off, eh? I'd still count that as top 10k 😉 Great job mate

        Thanks 🙂

    3. BeachBadger

      Just outside my target of 50-60k, so happy with that. Cant expect a top 10k finish in 1st season 😀 (Special thanks to crazy punts I took in last week and none of them worked, otherwise would have finished with better OR) 😆

        True that Sherlock, true that. Still you had a great first season, I commend you fellow rookie! 🙂 Massive flair with the Willian move 😯 Great stuff.

      The arrow history gets wiped from history, only the or result remains so all good.

      Finished 203 so only 202 places off my start of season objective 😉

      Delighted overall obviously

        Touche Zan.

        Top, top stuff mate. You must be on a course for a trip to the top of the HoF soon, great season again for you. That first season rank is quite alright eh 😉

    6. Patch
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Bitterly disappointed in my final GW score of 31, but still very happy with my new PB OR of 256.

      1. Zasa
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        😯 Great to hear about your PB, Patch. Solid work this season 🙂

    Has everybody gone?

      For a wank? Yes.

      1. Patch

        Boards have slowed right down, haven't they. All the poms are sleeping.

        1. Zasa
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Aye, I can only imagine this is half the running time during the real off season 🙁

      2. Test Eagles

          😉 They'll all come out soon

    So this is what the DZ looks like.

    1. The Enlightener
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Welcome in. Please don't eat some of our brains.

    2. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Does it live up to expectation?

      Don't be too loud though, you'll wake the babies

      1. Vardy Gras PBFC
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        It's like the second after a newborn baby stops crying.
        When the baby is crying you focus in, all in the room focus in, the baby getting full attention.
        Then the baby stops crying and for that second everyone is focused on a silence, sharing a blissful nothingness before consciousness kicks in again.

        This is the DZ.

    I don't know, after the worst season i've had in four years and one of the worst GWs ever i just had to put The Dark Knight Blu Ray in my PS3 a couple of hours ago.

    1. Vardy Gras PBFC
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Absolutely love the opening sequence.

      Love the whole thing.

      1. Frank Black
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Love the ending and the interrogation scene...and the ships thing and the night scenes...and the entire film.

    Hello all you handsome bunch of high achieving fantasy maestros!

    What a season, I've had fun bringing the banter, locking horns and generally having a good time on the ol' FFS site. Special shout out to my DZ hombres who are forever bringing the lip whilst the rest are asleep ... it's been a pleasure and hope to see you all on here occasionally in the off-season.

    1. Captain Peacock
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Cheers, thanks for helping me out a few times

    2. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Likewise Test Eagles. Depending on the answers I get below, I may or may not see you around over the summer 😉

    3. Nickofoz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years

      Thanks again mate, been a pleasure.

      Looking forward to the Ultra DZ in the off season!

  23. Amateur Pundit Zan

    I seem to suddenly have an abundance of time on my hands suddenly. Should I
    A) focus on my career and try and take that next step towards senior management
    B) spend more time with my young family before they grow up too fast
    C) learn a new skill, a new language perhaps
    D) find a new way of wasting time online, whilst still checking in here from time to time to see if anyone is about

    1. Captain Peacock
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Posts like this make me realise what I should be doing. B

      1. Vardy Gras PBFC
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Yes, definitely B time, with a bit of C time but not at the expense of B.

    2. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      E) plan your FPL strategy for next season

      😉 kidding

      A-C especially B

      I've got a 4 year old daughter and been working so late I usually got home after her bedtime. Trying to work on that!

    3. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      B and C

    4. Zasa
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Tough one here, I think if you're consolidating, you can't go wrong with a little but of B with a dash of A at the end 🙂

      Flair move is obviously D, whilst doing C online though 😉

    5. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Hmm. Was hoping for more Ds

      I jest obviously,

      time with my kids is non negotiable, I'm only online when they sleep at home.

      I try and keep it to lunch and commutes at work as well though the more bored I am the more likely I am too gravitate here through out the day. Bit of an ongoing challenge this one if I'm honest.

      C would actually be the most transferable with the time allotments I have. Language sounds difficult though.

      Any other suggestions for skills I could master through about an hour broken online per day (needs to be mastered by August 8 obviously)

      1. Zasa
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Basic chess openings, 4-5 guitar chords and pair of songs, coding,?

        If you do genuinely want to learn a language, try using a combination of pimsleur audio and quizlet to make memory cues.

        I'm trying to learn Cantonese, which is ridiculously hard. A European language would be best but your best bet is to expose yourself to the language fully, so, in short, get yourself a European girlfriend who struggles with English... Oh wait you're married. Never mind haha

      3. Test Eagles
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        All the way with D mate!

    6. Nickofoz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      B with a bit of D for a hit

  24. Scoredelario
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    I can honestly say that the hazard b**** cost me 10 points and a minileague (lost by 5) but i suppose it is the same for many!

    I'd planned to do clyne to janmaat and start haz, but ended up doing haz to yaya because of the news. 🙁

    On the positive side of things, I did rise from 23000 to 1300 since gw 30 so can't complain too much!

    1. Captain Peacock
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Never mind, it's mostly luck in the end. Well done on getting to 1300!

    2. Vardy Gras PBFC
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      I was holding off making any transfers until my rival moved.

      He went Hazard to Siggy about 10 minutes to deadline, when I saw someone post here about him training on Saturday. So I kept him. When Siggy wasn't even in the squad I was delighted, and then nervous as each and every Stoke goal flew in as his autosub was Walters.

      Luckily it was only too tight for comfort for only a spell in the 2nd half.

    3. Zasa
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Great news! 1300 is an excellent rank, good job 🙂

  25. Captain Peacock
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    I lose motivation sometimes. This season I dropped off a week or two before Christmas and returned in mid-Jan. despite being late to the Kane party I still got myself to 6851. By far a PB and only the second time I actively finished a season. Won my MLs too.

    Thanks everyone for your help, especially DZ who help keep my sanity at work. Here's to next season!

    1. Nickofoz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Nice mate, Top 10K is a great result, and yes easy to lose motivation.

      Look forward to the new season!

      1. Captain Peacock
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks mate. Where did you end up?

        1. Nickofoz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 9 Years

          Just outside the Top 1K 🙁

    2. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah I think concentrating fully on anything for so many weeks is tough. Most of us have some weeks where we ponder for hours and some we make snap decisions.

      This is why the contributers league is so strong I guess. All these guys have a responsibility to concentrate!

      1. Captain Peacock
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        It is indeed. Our liking for nearly anything waxes and wanes. When it's high and we do well, great feeling.

        1. Scoredelario
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 11 months ago

          Yep I've got a few hobbies I sometimes go full on with and then it seems to cycle. These are chess, fpl, online poker and strength training at the gym.

          It seems one always rises to the top and dominates consciousness for a few weeks at a time!

          You the same?

  26. The Enlightener
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    I may only have a rank in the 55K zone, but I won all three of my mini leagues. Too bad none for cash. Next season.......less hits/punts.

    1. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      Well done mate and good luck next season

      1. The Enlightener
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks man. Very much appreciated. I see you had a much lower rank. Well done on that. I've sniffed the realms of that kind of rank before, but not at the end of the season. Next year's mission, as usual, is to win it all. To stand atop the mountain of legends.

        1. Scoredelario
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years

          That's the beauty, preseason, we all have the same dream!

    I'd just like to thank you for all your advice in helping me achieve dizzy heights of the top 10K..1st time member of FFS and it's clearly helped me get to where I wanted to be.
    Topped my cash ML and OR 8300k next year target 5k so bye for now see you all for the tinkering fun on July 14th, 50 days time (not counting)

    Highlight was GW14 101 points GWR 68th was a turning point in my season

  29. Sz21
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 11 months ago

    Finished the season ranked 1338..
    Was as high as 150 but alas couldn't push on from that.

    Best season for me by a good bit.
    This site definitely helped very much with that.
    Thanks a lot to all.

    I have pencilled in holidays from July 19th to August 20th which is a kind of crucial time FPL wise.
    Wont be spending much time online..

    On that note..
    Any ideas when the new game will start up and also when the fixtures come out?

    I m hoping I have some time to at least do some prepping my team before it all kicks off again..

    1. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      You beat me by 23 places . Well played!

      Sorry not sure when it'll kick off again

    2. Nickofoz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 11 months ago

      SImilar story to me mate, peaked at 240 ish, was in the Top 1K for 16 weeks of the season but finished 1044. Pretty happy overall though

      Pretty sure fixtures come out mid June but I may be wrong. The new game usually starts up in mid July I think but it varies slightly each year
