The ScoutCast – Episode 136 – Bangin

Fond of sand dunes and salty air, Granville returns from “avin’ it large” in Ibiza, to join me once again in the ScoutCast studio.

The ageing hedonist and I rinse through the regulars – giving our views on the week’s transfer bandwagons, whilst previewing the weekend and giving a shout-out to those managers blazing trails atop the various Fantasy Football Scout leagues.

Inevitably, we also moan about our Gameweek mishaps, discuss the latest development in the United revolution and surf the waves being generated by the Fantasy Premier League price tweaks.

Drop the beats via this link or “roll another fat one” via the handy player below…

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

      He's one of their most important players. Great for FPL and allows for that upgrade in midfield. Only problem is he's too good to bench.

              just read that because the bookies had taken a large amount of money on a no vote they were basically covering their asses by shortening the odds, nothing really to do with expectations, more about cover. also, going back a few weeks the no vote thought it was a foregone conclusion so that all makes sense.
