The ScoutCast – Episode 172 – Fuzzy

We take Fantasy Football seriously. So much so, myself, Granville and Jonty find time each week to join up online and natter semi-aimlessly about it. Some of you even go so far to watch and listen. We all take Fantasy Football that seriously.

That’s why we dedicate this episode of the ScoutCast to Fuzzy Warbles, whose passion for Fantasy Football drove him to scribe a long letter to the Premier League. In doing so, he raised his head above the parapet to gain the attention from the mainstream press and various Twitterati.

Predictably, that attention was somewhat confused as to why someone would care so much about a few points to muster an 800-word email.

We know why.

The three of us are more than happy to waste more words discussing “CedricGate”, the catalyst for Fuzzy’s irritation.

Before that, we analyse Gameweek 9, discuss the contrasting fortunes of Jamie Vardy, Anthony Martial and Eden Hazard, plus assess the Gameweek 11 fixture swing. We may have a few chuckles along the way, but we’re taking it very seriously.

This episode of the ScoutCast was first broadcast live on our YouTube channel on Tuesday night. You can view the full version on the larger movie player below.

For the edited audio version, you’ll need this link or the smaller player below.

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

            Fair enough, you may well be right ... it may come off though, and I feel that it would be worth more on a week when less people will use it, ie. not a DGW

              This comment makes no sense.

              'Worth more on a week when less people will use it'

              It's about how many points you get from it. If he gets say 13 points this week, yes you will jump up the rankings due to the fact you played the chip. BUT, if most of us use ours in a DGW and the player in question gets more than 13 points, you will slide in the rankings. It's about total points gained, NOT when you gain them.

              GL with it anyway if you do use it! As a Vardy owner I hope it works tbh!

    Opinions needed please guys. I've got a midfield of KdB, Mahrez, Ayew, Payet & Mane & have loads of cash spare to bring in Sanchez. Do I wait a week because of the other guys fixtures? If this week, who goes? I'm thinking Ayew but he has a decent looking fixture against Villa.

        He's an option.

        I'll be interested in sitting down to watch the late ko for a watching brief.

        Costa/Hazard are always going to be options in this game at some point and that run from Norwich is sick.

        We might have an upturn in form by then or maybe that'll be the turn.

      Yeah keeping this week. I'm almost certain he'll start after Mourinho's praise of the midfield's defensive work midweek when Haz played 90.

      Eriksen is a good option though, as is Ozil around the same price.

        Sakho will end up captain soon.

        People need to cut Coutinho slack, at least he's shooting. The great Lallana twists and turns into players and gets plaudits.
