The Scout’s Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Classic League has now been renewed and is open for registration. Those who participated in our league last season will have been automatically renewed as members of our league again this term.

If you’re new to the Scout, then you’ll need to go to the league page on the FPL site, click “Join a League”, select “Private League” and enter the following code – 40184-13425. You’ll find this code on the homepage, in the middle column, from now on.

What do you get if you win the Classic League? Huge kudos and a place in the hall of fame alongside Jon Reeson, Chris McGurn and last season’s winner Gary McLean. Plus, of course, if you’ve won the Scout league, you’re likely to be right up there with the best FPL managers, challenging for the top prize. Two of the last three FPL Champions have come from the Fantasy Football Scout League, while Gary McLean ranked third overall last season, missing out on the crown on the final day by just ten points. In other words, the standard is pretty bloody high.

We’ll be putting together regular league updates on the site, tracking the progress of the front runners as the Gameweeks roll by and those tussling at the top will, of course, get regular mentions in the ScoutCast.

We will also be launching a Members League – details of that will be appearing in the Members area early next week.

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

    First RMT of the season, being an amatuer, would love a few comments.

    DDG, Federici
    Cole, Walker, Tomkins, Coloccini, Fabio
    Dempsey, Hazard, Taarabt, Colback, Noble
    Torres, Rooney, Pogrebnyak

    1. Taarabt a HUGE improver this year
    2. Colback / Noble and Tomkins / Fabio have nice early rotation
    3. Torres / Hazard -> MCI gw3
    4. Worried about lack of city coverage

    Thoughts?

    A: Torres to Rooney, Hazard stays

    B: Hazard to Kagawa, Torres to Ade or Cisse and upgrade the Pog to Graham

        15 goals from midfield is not an easy task.
        He played for a team which avoided relegation on the last minute of Final Day.
