As we announced in last night’s ScoutCast, our partners Mondogoal have very kindly launched a contest for this weekend in honour of Doosra’s ongoing recovery from illness.

For those who don’t know, Doosra has been a long standing and active member of the Fantasy Football Scout community for many years. He was recently taken ill and has been hospitilised for several weeks.

We’re delighted to hear recently that he is slowly edging his way back to recovery and we’re all optimistic of seeing his presence back on these pages in the coming months.

A few weeks back, Fantasy Football Scout successfully won Doosra a West Ham signed matchball in a Mondogoal contest. That aroused their interest and, on hearing on Doosra’s story, they very kindly put forward the concept of a special dedicated contest.

The contest takes place over this coming Gameweek. It’s £5 to enter, you can enter more than one team.

All proceeds from this contest will be distributed to Doosra’s family and/or charity of their choosing.

The winner of this contest will receive a special West Ham United Prize Pack that includes:

  • A West Ham United Team-Signed Jersey
  • A West Ham United Team-Signed Football
  • Match Tickets to see West Ham United v. Everton on the final home fixture of the season at Boleyn Ground on the 16th of May.

All fixtures from this matchweek are included, lineups lock at the start of the first match between Arsenal and Liverpool.

We’d love to see you involved and tussle for the right to win the West Ham goodies and perhaps also seek to donate these to Doosra and his family.

We’d like to thank Mondogoal for taking time to create this contest and for their donation.

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

        I accidentally typed Oliveira as Oliviera and as I'm not prepared to compromise my standards I went back and edited it. Correcting that error and gave you the status of being first by the slimmest of margins. However, I wonder if the mods will take into account that my post makes it clear that it was James Wilson who dropped in price. Readers of your post might be confused and think Marc Wilson suffered a price drop. 😉

          I thought it was Wilson Pickett

    I am really sad to hear this. Reading his articles and comments, the guy seemed like a top class. Hope he recovers soon. All the best to him and his family.

    1. Davido989

      He's a top person.

    Really good gesture this. Think I will play my first Mondogoal contest because of it. Hope to hear more positive news soon.

    Well, i might try it too.

    Do you know if it can be played by non UK citizens?

    Thanks

    Blimey! I've got to enter this, for both Doosra/Charity and the West Ham gear!

    I'd happily donate that shirt and match tickets to him (seeing as he already has a ball earmarked for him).

    Eh, forgive my ignorance but how do you play? What are the rules? Is it one gameweek only??

    Worth playing Yun over any of the following three?

    Terry, Clyne, Naughton (Bench: Yun, PvA)

    1. Daniel Exeter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Not for me

  19. Tomeister
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Can anyone see the typical 'top five' clubs changing in the future? (Arsenal, Chelsea, Man city, Man U, Liverpool)?

    Personally, I think once Spurs new stadium is complete, they'll find a place, but who will drop out?

    1. Guy Demel's SH
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Spurs have a good chance but not for a good few years yet - that stadium needs to be paid for.

      West Ham have half a chance if a billionaire fancies buying a club - London based and a new 54k stadium at tiny cost.

      I can send you a long quote from Henry V if that would help ? 😉 . You know the one he posted everytime he entered the scout pick competition

    3.3m in the bank with 2FT. Walters or Bellerin out?

    Pantilimon
    Ivanovic / Clyne / Lescott
    Cazorla / Hazard / Eriksen / Silva
    Austin / Kane / Agüero

    Krul / Alderweireld / Walters / Bellerín

    Realy nice this. That Mondogoal article's going to get plenty of first time readers this week.

      Is Mondogoal hard to enter ?

        Not a clue, I'll find out on Friday 🙂

          At least when I lose I can say I donated to a good cause unlike when I lose a fiver betting on the Masters 🙂

  23. FAITHNOMORENO

    Koscielny to who..?
    The rest of the defence is Terry,Rose,Pieters anpd Hutton.
    Already have Sanchez.
    Trying to offload one gunner.

    1. Jawain - 9th overall 2014/2…

      Naughton

  24. Guy Demel's SH
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Is anyone able to point me in the direction of Shots on target conceded stats please?

    I can't seem to find it in the members area...

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      On the menu on the left hand side of your screen in the members area look for team stats click on that and click on defending . On the right hand side of the screen when you enter the members area have a look at the members stats tables . Doosra's dodgy defenders . Those are the two places I usually go to . Hopefully answers are in one of those two places

      1. Guy Demel's SH
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Thanks for the reply, I've had a look. Unfortunately I still can't see a stat for Shots On Target Conceded anywhere. I've looked through the entire table options list too 🙁

        I wanted to try and work out PDO.

          http://www.fourfourtwo.com/statszone , http://www.whoscored.com/statistics . Try these places aswell not sure if they are there but worth a look . Who scored is popular on here

    Costa out for Austin?

    1. Jawain - 9th overall 2014/2…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      No. Step away from the computer.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Actually stay on the computer and get yourself a grav.

        1. marcus2704
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Costa injury doubt though right?

            • 13 Years

            Wait on the press conference but I think he will play.

            If he is injured then a transfer out may be good although I imagine you would want him back the week after

          2. Ruth_NZ
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 8 months ago

            Yes.

    Great idea, will take a look at this! Get well soon doosra.

    Get well soon pal. Looking forward to seeing you around these parts soon.

    On my Wildcard this week, can't decide on my front line (apart from keeping Kane!)

    Giroud - terrible fixtures to come but on form - one more blank player to deal with
    Aguero - great fixtures, broke scoring duck on the International
    Costa - want in for the DGW, but could wait
    Austin - if he does well it's going to hurt not having him
    Benteke - the differential DGW player.
    Sturridge - legs like glass, very expensive.

    COst not an issue, shed loads itb

    1. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Aguero, Costa, Kane

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Could go without Costa for this week and go for Austin or Benteke then swap out

        1. Jawain - 9th overall 2014/2…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          That's what I would do. Go for the DGW and leave enough money behind to bring in Costa the week after

    2. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I'd probably go Aguero and Costa if money not an issue. I currently have Kane/Kun/Giroud but will look to get Costa for Giroud before Giroud blank

    3. HVT
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I'd slot in Tekjers this week with an exit strategy fwiw.

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years

      I've the same question - not a mention in the last week on his injury.
