Wood Clinches Sky Sports Title

Having revealed that one of the Fantasy Football Scout league, Dimitri Nicolaou, emerged triumphant in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL), we can also confirm that Alan Wood was the runaway winner in the Sky Sports Fantasy Football game.

Alan has led from the front for a number of months now and finally sealed his place at the summit, with his team “Atum Forest FC” clinching an astonishing 106-point advantage over his nearest challenger in second spot. Congratulations to Alan, who earns a handy £20,000 for his endeavours in 2015/16.

Fantasy Football Scout supplied three of the top six managers in the Sky Sports game. Jonathan Bancroft took third spot, just five points shy of second, and resultantly earns £1,000. Dexter Hayes, meanwhile, sat in sixth on 2429 points – just nine points behind Jonathan.

In the FFScout league, Trevor Fricker (13th overall) and Barry Grimes (14th) helped complete the top five. Thanks to the endeavours, we successfully defended our crown in the “League of Leagues”, which comes with a £2,000 prize – the top five managers in the Fantasy Football Scout table will each receive £400 as a reward.

Look out for an interview with Alan over the next few days as he discusses his successful campaign.

    Disgusting simulation by Rami. One of the most dishonest games of the last 10 years. This is some Juventus 1998 BS. Shocking.

        One of the most dishonest games of the last 10 years. Talk about overreacting. Your overreaction is some Juventus 1998 BS. Shocking.

      The Sevilla players must play FPL. You can tell they've felt the sting of Klopp rotation and crave revenge.

      Almost a Moreno assist there, having a stormer for Sevilla.

      2016/17 template (so far)

      Aguero

      3 x Chelsea

        Rest of the team made up from promoted teams then.

        1. Camp No No
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 8 days ago

          Wednesday GK seems quite good.

          ...but more seriously, we start with some 8 big club players every year. Liverpool and Chelsea won't even be as expensive as the City and Arsenal guys.

        My template:

        0 x Lukaku
        0 x Leicester
        3 x Liverpool
        3 x Chelsea
        3 x Aguero

          I love the 0 x Lukaku

          1. Camp No No
            • 10 Years

            He's the first name NOT in my team.

              I fully agree, single handedly messed up the end of my season. Unless he starts scoring 2-3 goals a match I don't want him near my team again.

              Although on second thought, it will be interesting seeing how his fortunes goes without Martinez he could actually do something.

              1. Camp No No
                • 10 Years
                8 years, 8 days ago

                He will start scoring those goals now that I don't have him. There's a serious negative correlation between Lukaku being in my team and Lukaku scoring goals.

                  Same here, seems like most of this website could do with a Lukaku anonymous support group 🙂

          All I know is Hazard, Sanchez and Aguero are nailed in my team.

        • Piggs Boson
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 8 days ago

          Depends on fixtures and prices.

          I'm almost certain I won't have 3 Liverpool players though.

        • Tomeister
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 7 days ago

          Don't you think Kane is just as essential as aguero?

          • 10 Years
          8 years, 7 days ago

          Something that burns people every year, trebling up on a team that turns out to be a slow starter. Aim more for double-ups and then it's easier to de-escalate from than a treble up if it all goes tits up. Meanwhile, you're still only 1FT from getting a 3rd player if it's really necessary.

              Made a better account of themselves than your team. That is for sure. As a neutral they are by far a better team than Man U currently.

                    Overwhelming evidence is indefensible I suppose. Good idea to not reply. Just my opinion on a site that thrives on opinions.

                Rodgers is unfairly maligned, imo.

                    I can't remember a more dishonest game of football, quite shocking. The ref has done everything possible to help Sevilla win. I'm not a pool fan but this is a disgrace. So much for a reformed FIFA, this ref is following orders from above no doubt about that.

                      Anyone else here stuck watching an American stream? It's been bugging me all game who Brad Friedel sounds like, but it's just dawned on me - he talks just like Zoolander.

                        Genuinely feel for Klopp he's a top man but 5 finals in a row now lost that's seriously rough

                          Feel for Klopp, not for pool. 😉
