Having revealed that one of the Fantasy Football Scout league, Dimitri Nicolaou, emerged triumphant in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL), we can also confirm that Alan Wood was the runaway winner in the Sky Sports Fantasy Football game.

Alan has led from the front for a number of months now and finally sealed his place at the summit, with his team “Atum Forest FC” clinching an astonishing 106-point advantage over his nearest challenger in second spot. Congratulations to Alan, who earns a handy £20,000 for his endeavours in 2015/16.

Fantasy Football Scout supplied three of the top six managers in the Sky Sports game. Jonathan Bancroft took third spot, just five points shy of second, and resultantly earns £1,000. Dexter Hayes, meanwhile, sat in sixth on 2429 points – just nine points behind Jonathan.

In the FFScout league, Trevor Fricker (13th overall) and Barry Grimes (14th) helped complete the top five. Thanks to the endeavours, we successfully defended our crown in the “League of Leagues”, which comes with a £2,000 prize – the top five managers in the Fantasy Football Scout table will each receive £400 as a reward.

Look out for an interview with Alan over the next few days as he discusses his successful campaign.

    Disgusting simulation by Rami. One of the most dishonest games of the last 10 years. This is some Juventus 1998 BS. Shocking.

      One of the most dishonest games of the last 10 years. Talk about overreacting. Your overreaction is some Juventus 1998 BS. Shocking.

    The Sevilla players must play FPL. You can tell they've felt the sting of Klopp rotation and crave revenge.

      I was hoping Wimbledon win. Weaker opponents to meet in the final.

    Almost a Moreno assist there, having a stormer for Sevilla.

      yup he is still assisting for Sevilla

        One of their best players tonight.

      Always nice when players give something back to their boyhood club

      1. Somalion

        Agreed. Touching to see.

    karma for klopp rotating the sh1t out of his teams and screwing us over

    Not sure why, but really fancy a Coke right now?!

        or not.

    2016/17 template (so far)

    Aguero
    3 x Liverpool
    3 x Chelsea

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Rest of the team made up from promoted teams then.

      1. Camp No No
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Wednesday GK seems quite good.

        ...but more seriously, we start with some 8 big club players every year. Liverpool and Chelsea won't even be as expensive as the City and Arsenal guys.

    2. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      My template:

      0 x Lukaku
      0 x Leicester
      3 x Liverpool
      3 x Chelsea
      3 x Aguero

      😉

        I love the 0 x Lukaku

        1. Camp No No
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 1 month ago

          He's the first name NOT in my team.

          1. Hamstergod
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 1 month ago

            I fully agree, single handedly messed up the end of my season. Unless he starts scoring 2-3 goals a match I don't want him near my team again.

            Although on second thought, it will be interesting seeing how his fortunes goes without Martinez he could actually do something.

            1. Camp No No
              • 12 Years
              10 years, 1 month ago

              He will start scoring those goals now that I don't have him. There's a serious negative correlation between Lukaku being in my team and Lukaku scoring goals.

              1. Hamstergod
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years
                10 years, 1 month ago

                Same here, seems like most of this website could do with a Lukaku anonymous support group 🙂

                1. Camp No No
                  • 12 Years
                  10 years, 1 month ago

                  😆

    3. Worzel Gummidge
      10 years, 1 month ago

      All I know is Hazard, Sanchez and Aguero are nailed in my team.

    4. Piggs Boson
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Depends on fixtures and prices.

      I'm almost certain I won't have 3 Liverpool players though.

    5. Tomeister
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Don't you think Kane is just as essential as aguero?

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Something that burns people every year, trebling up on a team that turns out to be a slow starter. Aim more for double-ups and then it's easier to de-escalate from than a treble up if it all goes tits up. Meanwhile, you're still only 1FT from getting a 3rd player if it's really necessary.

  8. Bubz

    All that rotation for nothing 🙁

    1. Somalion
      • 16 Years

      That's the risk.

    Still on the plus side think of all the toblerones they can eat

    @Somalion is it time to blame Mignolet ?

      You know it 😎

    2. Worzel Gummidge

      TBF he is utter garbage. Not sure he is even in the top 100 GKs of UK Primary schools.

    Anything

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Made a better account of themselves than your team. That is for sure. As a neutral they are by far a better team than Man U currently.

    2. Annie

      United are woeful, no hope. Liverpool are going the other way to that boring pile of crap

      1. Worzel Gummidge
        10 years, 1 month ago

        I couldn't even be bothered responding to his embarrassing post above. Pool are a better team as it stands. That may change after transfers.

        1. Annie

          I'm not even sure how his post hasn't been removed, odd moderation on here

          Overwhelming evidence is indefensible I suppose. Good idea to not reply. Just my opinion on a site that thrives on opinions.

  16. Bøwstring The Carp

    Liverpool were 7th when they sacked Rodgers 😯

    1. Odikostar
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Haha really?!

    2. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Rodgers is unfairly maligned, imo.

      Good coach, just bad at buying and press conferences.

    3. Scratch
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Tbf Liverpool could've taken more points had they anything left to play for.

      1. Camp No No
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 1 month ago

        ^this. They played second string for the whole end season, which was not optimal for their final position.

  17. Colonel Shoe 肝池
    • 14 Years

    well 10 minutes 3 goals needed ......easy

    do Liverpool not even get Europa League if they lose this?

  22. The Mandalorian

    I can't remember a more dishonest game of football, quite shocking. The ref has done everything possible to help Sevilla win. I'm not a pool fan but this is a disgrace. So much for a reformed FIFA, this ref is following orders from above no doubt about that.

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      10 years, 1 month ago

      ne of the most dishonest games of the last 10 years. This is some Juventus 1998 BS. Shocking.

    2. Colonel Shoe 肝池
      • 14 Years

      are you kidding.............im a pool fan and weve been terrible this half, like a different side.....thats why we're losing

      1. The Mandalorian
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 1 month ago

        2 penalties denied would have made this a different game

      2. Colonel Shoe 肝池

        unless moreno is following orders

        1. The Mandalorian
