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.

    Wakey cyber attack on TalkTalk website and said on news personal details could've been hacked.

    1. Syd.
      • 17 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      You get what you pay for

      1. Zombie
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        It's his website or?

    2. Nascimento
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Never trusted him.

  2. Davido989
    • 15 Years

    a lot of drivel gets thrown about here on matchdays

    1. Tabasco
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      You don't say

    2. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Most of it banter so shouldn't be taken seriously

  3. Gotta Wijnaldum points
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Play Martial or Pelle?

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      I'd play Martial. Ideally both though.

      1. Gotta Wijnaldum points
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        would you play redmond ahead of those two? uncertain he'll start

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          I'd bench Redmond

    2. Tabasco
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Pellé for me

    3. st4rt__
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Pelle.

  4. Jeremiah
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Anyone recommend a good site to get premier league match tickets that aren't part of a package deal?

    Much appreciated 🙂

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Which club?

      1. Jeremiah
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Arsenal 🙂

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Tough club to get tickets for because of their ticketing system. You could try some reliable arsenal Twitter accounts and ask about. There's always a few available at face value

          1. Jeremiah
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            That was the avenue I was thinking myself. Prices on most websites are crazy expensive. Thanks mate.

            1. Davido989
              • 15 Years
              10 years, 9 months ago

              Hope you find what you're looking for mate.

  5. Lieutenant Frank Columbo
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Any advice on which two muppets to start this week from this lot of dross, defensively challenged turds?

    Sagna
    Martin
    Williams
    Richards

    Starting Monreal ...

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      😆

      Williams and Sagna, imo.

  6. GK
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Can anyone help me - is Jay Egersdorff (Costa del Kuqi) a regular on here?

    1. Root
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      I don't think so.

  7. hannesdela
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    A) Keep Ayew
    B) Sell for Sterling
    C) Sell for Wijnaldum
    D) Sell for Eriksen
    E) Sell for Özil

    My midfield right now: Sanchez - KDB - Payet - Mané - Ayew

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Keep for 1 more

      1. hannesdela
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        You fancy him scoring against Aston Villa? Maybe I could keep my FT. In my heads-to-heads league I have a pretty easy match coming up, next week is going to be tougher. His lack of points last week just make me doubt him. I like Özil's form to be honest and would hate for him to star against Everton without me having him.

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          I've got him and want Ozil too but Aston Villa...

          1. hannesdela
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            Hmm they are leaky yes. Maybe wait for one more week then because I should easily win in my heads-to-heads and then I can make 2 FT's next week 🙂

  8. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Which one to bench?

    A) Mané

    B) Ayew

    C) Martial

    1. st4rt__
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Probably C. That said, there's arguments for all three.

    2. Demelbrush
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Ayew

    3. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Tough one. Mane.

    4. Rinseboy
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      It's out of A, B or C for me mate. Hope that helps

      1. FPL Maldini
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Hahaha what a mess this decision is

        1. Rinseboy
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Would always favour striker. So it comes down to Mane or Ayew and Mane edges it i recon

          1. FPL Maldini
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            The funny thing is, Martial might play as a winger again haha

            1. Rinseboy
              • 14 Years
              10 years, 9 months ago

              True I have a good feeling bout him this week. I'm gonna bet on him!

      2. Rinseboy
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        But B in all seriousness

  9. TorresMagic™
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 17 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    When was the last time Everton won away to Arsenal in the league?

    1. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      No idea, but it will still be that time next week.

    2. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      when pienaar scored a beauty on a snowy emirates pitch

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 17 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Ozilmagic time?

      2. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Don't think they won unless I heard the wrong answer.

        1. Davido989
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Oops. That was 2-2

      3. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        2-2

    3. Still Unsure
      10 years, 9 months ago

      January 1996.

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 17 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        What day?

        1. Still Unsure
          10 years, 9 months ago

          20th

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 17 Years
            10 years, 9 months ago

            Very surprising.

            1. Still Unsure
              10 years, 9 months ago

              That it was so long ago?

              1. TorresMagic™
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 17 Years
                10 years, 9 months ago

                Yeah, you would have thought they could have pulled out a win in the last 18 seasons.

                1. TorresMagic™
                  • Has Moderation Rights
                  • 17 Years
                  10 years, 9 months ago

                  19*

                2. Still Unsure
                  10 years, 9 months ago

                  Yeah. Some heavy defeats in there too.

    2. Holy See

      1. sully29
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

    4. Dynamic Duos
      • 12 Years

    5. Malcolm Tucker for England …
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      You'll get him...Next year..

    6. Numb
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      He was their first choice apparently.

  13. kumast
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    De Gea (Hennessey)
    Dann, Dawson, Dier (Sagna, Caulker
    Payet, de Bruyne, Mata, Mahrez (Sako)
    Vardy, Ighalo, Pelle

    What ONE transfer would you guys make?

    1. st4rt__
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      I'd probably bin Ighalo.

      1. kumast
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Who would you replace him with?

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      I'd save the ft if you only have one.

      1. kumast
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Yes, just the one. Could miss out on potential points though...

    3. skeyrd
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Mata > Sanchez if you can afford

  14. FPL Daniel
    • 17 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    @Demi.

    Man were you kidding that A. Ayew always scores against his brother J. Ayew or that is some truth in it?

    Thanks

    did nobody use the fuzzy saga to post one of the best songs of all time?

    fuzzy, by grant lee buffalo. for followers of mellow music, a bit of a classic 🙂

  16. Steve McCroskey
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Pick 3 to play out of

    A. Dawson (nor)
    B. Cedric (liv)
    C. Williams (avl)
    D. Ben Davies (bou)

    1. Demelbrush
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Dawson Ced Davies

  17. Tshelby
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Safe FT?

    2.2ITB

    butland ( myhill )
    Kolarov, Bellerin, Richards ( Targett, Dann )
    Mahrez, alexis, payet, kdb ( surman )
    vardy, pelle, costa

  18. FPL Daniel
    • 17 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Are Stoke solid at the back now? Yeah you guessed it right, Ighalo owner here

    1. st4rt__
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      I'd say so, ShawX coming soon too.

    2. Demelbrush
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      no. that was a one-off

      1. FPL Daniel
        • 17 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        They seemed organised to me. Maybe Swans were that bad?

    3. Gotta Wijnaldum points
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Solid enough to keep out Watford

      1. Demelbrush
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        true

  19. Monkey Hanger
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Have to take into account that the Southampton players will view this match as a trial for a transfer to Liverpool, to meet up with all their mates.

    1. Lucy.
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Incredibly original.

  20. SweeSwee
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Gomis > Vardy -4 worth it?

    1. st4rt__
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Nah.

  21. CaptainPlatypus
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Opinions please folks.

    A) Martial + any midfielder up to 8.7.
    B) Ighalo + Sanchez (Ighalo will be benched more often than not).

    Current attack:
    KDB/Özil/Payet/Mahrez/Ayew (Ayew is coming out)
    Martial/Vardy/Pelle

    Martial has great fixtures post City, but I'm really not sure about him or United at the moment.

    1. st4rt__
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      B, I'd go Ayoze instead of Ighalo though.

  22. Syd.
    • 17 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Will Giroud start against Everton

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      50/50. If AOX starts than no IMO

    2. Demelbrush
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      i think so. guess though isnt it

    3. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      I doubt it.

  23. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 9 months ago

    Sightly ironic that Fuzzy quit the forum because people were ignoring his posts 😛

    1. FPL Daniel
      • 17 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      he quit??

      1. Fitzy.
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        He obviously ignored his post about it.

        1. Fitzy.
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          *You obviously ignored his post about it! 😳

      2. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        He had already quit then came back for 'that' post

    2. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      The vibe is different to how it was in his hay day. I can understand that

    3. Ayew Serious
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      He's an attention seeker

      1. KingNidge
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        of the highest degree.. and a good bloke too im sure

      2. Ryan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Sorry mate but its clear you don't know him very well. He's anything but

        1. The Light Knight
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          This

        2. Ayew Serious
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          Actually you know what, you are right I don't know him, but his actions are those of an attention seeker, but I am only making educated assumptions

      3. Tabasco
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Bit hypocritical

        1. Ayew Serious
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 9 months ago

          What do you mean by this?

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 9 months ago

      Varane and Isco. 😯

      1. Camp No No
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 9 months ago

        Some good business there.

      They drew with Ruben, they hardly set the game alight.
