Fantasy Football Book – Your Help Needed

And I'm around for the next hour or so in case anyone has any queries.

All the best with the book, already looking forward to it 🙂

Sounds mad interesting, good luck!

There are fantasy football books out there though. This won't be the first.

All the best with the book, David! I will send you an e-mail you in a few days. 🙂

If you want a story, I've got one. Sorry in advance if you don't like it. I started out this season with the sole aim of beating a casual friend of mine. Afterwards, as the season progressed, I started doing various things. My aim is to do everything that is possible in the game. Have done these:
1. Captained heaton.
2. Captained Holgate.
3. Played almost all the formations.
4. Took too many hits. etc. etc.
With the help of ffs, I've beaten my casual friend by a margin of 200+ points.

When I read the title I thought it was a different writer.

216 points lost in hits this season,showing exactly how the game should not be played

My stories are all of woe

From my first season where I led ML from week 1 to week 37 then lost by 1 point on the final day.
To the 2012-13 season where I lost £300 prize for ML on "transfers made" after "balegate", a Mata goal being called an OG and a final day Mertersaker assist being removed as his headed pass skimmed off Podolski's shoulder. FPL overturned all of these decisions to lose me £300. Not that it still bugs me or anything.
But I did delete my account the season after 😆

Which 3 players has the highest Average Points Played for you (atleast 5 games)

For me top 3 are

Kane:- 11.4 (16 matches)
Sanchez:- 11.2 (29 matches)
Aguero:- 10.6 (15 matches)

(source anewpla).

Do you have a rough estimate on when it will be published? I'm assuming you'll also be writing about the psychological aspects?

I'll be doing my master's thesis next year and have been thinking about choosing fantasy sports/football as my topic. Would be nice having a bit more theoretical framework to work with as fantasy sports currently is relatively unexploited from a research point of view.

Thoroughly miserable and it's only been a few days!!

Long dark days ahead.

The whole site has been talking about my 5,042 finish this season and the GW38 drama I endured ... Would that make the cut?

Surely there has to be a chapter on the season Jonty has just had, too?

Will you be sharing the profits with contributors?

Good luck David. I think a book entitled "a year of living fantastically" would be a runner. Going through a season of the game, referencing some of the famous characters of this site and with a dollop of celebs like Andy Murray, Stoke team, Lord Kane and his team.

ML cruelty.

Last year, Smalling og I think it was 92nd minute.

Year before that, Skrtel red card and a Siggy no show.

Barely lost each year.

Why would anyone read a book on Fantasy Football?

make a kind of movie instead..you will earn more money in that as well.

Someone should have a Tv programming featuring unfunny commedians with the 100 most controversial FPL moments e.g. Bales phantom assist, Terry's phantom goal, second random wildcard a few years back etc.

Really don't understand why Guardiola has let Clichy and Caballero go when they've been so much better than Kolarov and Bravo.

When you find yourself genuinely cheering against the team you support, you know you've gone down the rabbit hole.
I've done that !

A work colleague a few years back had to quit FPL because he couldn't handle cheering for Arsenal (Spurs fan).

This years outright winner is an Everton who went the season without a Liverpool asset. Listen to his interview on FPL and he recounts suffering through the Suarez years.

Anyway, I'm off for now. Thanks for the comments, stories etc. And please keep them coming. Anyone interested in the questionnaire or after a more detailed chat, please feel free to email me at the address in the story.

You are not wrong

I have lost two mini leagues at £500 each time

2011/12. Last minute of the season - Man City vs QOR. I'd already had Yaya Toure come off early meaning I had a potential point lost. It clocked on till the 93rd minute and the prize was mine.

AGUERRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOO

That goal meant my mini league rival clocked up that 1 point more than me to win the prize

2016/17. I had clawed back the lead from my rival from 120 points going in with 11 players playing compared to his 7. I thought I had it in bag with 3 point difference.

It was nip and tuck all the Sunday as despite the advantage, he had captained Keane with a hatrick. I checked at 4.45pm and thought I must have still won it but was puzzled as to how his Cahill had gained 5 points.

Not only did I find the horrible news that John Terry (my player) had been substituted on 26 minutes again giving me 1 point but my rival had Cahill come in and to make it worse. Gain a clean sheet despite Chelsea already conceding. Again losing the game by 1 point. Even if Terry had come off 5 minutes later I would have won.

Account has now been deleted.

With Navas gone, Is Raheem Sterling going to be the next Navas for Man City? Who gets subbed in the 70 min mark so that his pace is used against the tired defenders

I was delighted with Alexis 46 point captains haul this year. I was feeling glum waiting for the wife to finish shopping in Alexanderplaz thinking I had a miserable points return for the week. I nearly choked with delight on my kebab when the game week score updated. I always remember where I was with big FPL moments.

How about playing Norwegian Fantasy Football - it's basically methadone !

‪OFFICIAL: Southampton have released defenders Cuco Martina, Martin Caceres and midfielders Lloyd Isgrove, Harley Willard.‬
