FPL Issue Apology

Evening all. The FPL have this afternoon issued an apology over the recent log-in debacle and look to have made changes on the back of the weekend’s problems.

The link to the full announcement is highlighted above, so I’ll leave you to check it out for yourselves if you haven’t done so already. The first point (below) means we are all allowed free transfers from now up until the Gameweek 2 deadline on Saturday morning- compensation for many of us who were unable to make those last-minute changes from Friday evening onwards..

1. Receive unlimited transfers
No points will be deducted for any transfers you make up to the Gameweek 2 deadline (11:30 BST on Saturday 20th August 2011). If you have already made transfers and had points deducted, these will be restored to your overall total by midnight on Tuesday 16th August 2011. If you have already opted to play your wildcard, this too will be restored at the same time.

From a Fantasy Football Scout perspective, then, just to assure you- we will be resetting any of our affiliated leagues- they will all now start from Gameweek 2 to ensure a level playing field for those involved.

We’ll have more on this later…

    Thing is a think most people got over the frustration on fri/sat and were just getting on with it. Only an isolated minority that hadn't created their team at all that really suffered

    Surely it's not feasible that they won't freeze the prices? I can't imagine they'd just let there be a bunch of people gaining free money.

        If they started the whole game from scratch i would agree. We stil have our points from this gameweek. Prices rises i think will stay and ffs will benefit! Good move all round.

        Even so, with all the people suggesting huge price rises and the amount of questions they'll get about it they'll think "oh ****, better freeze the prices".

    Well. That was the first time I emailed fpl. I asked for free transfers like everyone else. It worked, well done all. That brings a smile to my face after the horrendous day of seeing Cesc in another shirt. Almost like seeing a cheating girlfriend!

    Im not surprised at all by this. Some people were (rightly) irate at the technical f ups on the site.

    I can only imagine what was written in some of the emails they recieved.

    Oh well lets all move on and make the best of the situation for yourself.

      It's annoying because it needs to be a mutual thing. Some people who lucked out on the first GW will be like "no, there's no need to restart" whilst those who had a crap GW will be pleading for them to restart.

    If anyone from Citeh scores big tonight I will be fuming. If there wasn't a WC for everyone now and they scored big I would have taken it on the chin and just gotten on with it. But of course I would have had Citeh coverage if I knew I could change my entire team staright after tonight. This is not sitting well.

      I'd say a whinge is when you are being petty and are throwing the toys out the pram.

      I think I am allowed to have a grievance with what they have done after careful planning and preparation.
