While we wait for further information on the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) situation, I thought I’d draw your attention to a recent rule tweak concerning the Bonus Point awards which some of you may have missed.

The FPL rules now state…

“Bonus points will be awarded on the Monday morning after the weekend matches are played. Any matches played on a weekday night will be awarded on the following morning.”

So, just to prevent even more frustration later this evening, we thought we’d make this clear to all in advance. The Bonus Points will be awarded after all the Gameweek action has been reviewed and any scoring issues addressed – which, given that they are now based on a system driven by a statistical index – the EA SPORTS Player Performance Index – is perhaps not surprising.

Fantasy Football Scout will of course be publishing a review of the Gameweek on Monday, discussing the Bonus Points and the EA SPORTS PPI in full.

Later today we also hope to have our first set ICT Scout Index scores available to Members which should offer some guidance on where the Bonus Points are likely to go.

As mentioned in my recent comments in the site earlier this morning, if we can get an update on the FPL situation, we will pass what we can.

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

        It could backfire too if ..say Sunderland win 2-0,so it works both ways. fingers crosses. As for Adam captain, he is on set pieces and will be pulling the strings in MF so i dont see it as a big gamble tbh

    B) I now have to pay extra to watch Sky Sports News (previously free)
    C) It appears that Jose Enrique (turncoat) is starting for Liverpool

    fpl is a waste of time this year - well done cretins who decided to change it all and wreck our entertainment. yes, i know that it is free but what an own goal they have scored and what an opportunity missed. this makes a farce of the whole game and season- perhaps worth trying again next season or will they have swopped from ea sports to some other joke outfit. w*&^&*rs
