We have launched a new Fantasy Premier League classic mini-league to mark the resumption of the 2019/20 season, with scoring starting from Gameweek 30+.

Whether you’re currently ranked first in the world or closer to the seven-million mark, everyone is in with a chance of winning as all entrants start from zero.

Head to the FPL site via this link and use the code ‘i3lxye’ to sign up (full details are towards the bottom of this piece).

There’s not only pride at stake in this mini-league but the carrot of free annual memberships to the managers who finish in the top five places.

Don’t worry if you’re already subscribed for 2020/21 – we’ll refund your payment if your finish qualifies you for this prize.

Our new end-of-season mini-league is called the ‘The FFScout Charity Shield‘ and we’re also using this opportunity to try and raise money for the NHS.

We usually offer Amazon vouchers to those finishing in the podium places of our Fantasy Football Scout and Fantasy Football Scout Members leagues, and that remains the case in this stop-start season.

For ‘The FFScout Charity Shield’, we at Fantasy Football Scout are pledging the cash equivalent – £300 – to NHS Charities Together.

The selfless work that our National Health Service key workers carry out on a daily basis has been brought into sharp focus over the last three months.

We’re honoured to be donating money to such a worthwhile cause and we’re inviting you to do the same via our JustGiving page.

We should stress that a donation is not mandatory and anyone can enter ‘The FFScout Charity Shield’ whether they are able to make a financial contribution or not; we fully appreciate that these are tough, unprecedented times and some of you will perhaps not be in a position to do so.

If you are able to spare a bob or two, however, then you can do so by clicking on the below link.

Many thanks to anyone who donates to the fund and good luck for the rest of the season.

    3. Majestic Chanka
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      More £ to lose for me but an easy hold unless it give 2-3 more players you really want.

  2. dierstraights

    moron question...how do i see if i still have wildcard left? I completely forgot FPL for the past couple of months...

    1. Flynny
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Check transfer history

    2. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

    3. Ron_Swanson

    4. JIMMY TUGGINS
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      I wish I could forget using it.

  3. Flynny
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Hi ....any views on this free hit please? Uses all cash

    Only alternative I can see is Doherty to a 3rd sheffield defender...

    Leno
    TAA Doherty lunds oconell
    Sterling Kdb grealish
    Kun auba abraham

    Thanks

    1. Shark Team
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      I would prefer a midfielder like Sarr vs LEI instead of TAA

      1. Flynny
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Interesting....thanks

  4. Shark Team
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    2 Yearsjust now
    My plan: (please tell me if it sounds good or bad to you)
    Gw30+: Bench Boost(3mci, 3shu, 2ars, 2avl players + wolves x3 + Sarr + Lascelles)
    Gw31+: Sterling out for Son or Fernandes
    Gw 32+:...Transfers....
    Gw33+: Wildcard having a better view of all the players and the teams planning for a great team for the last 6 gws
    Gw 34+ - 38+: Free Hit in a gw where my team hasn't got satisfying fixtures probably gw 37-38 where everything comes to an end

    1. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      GW 33 looks great for FH then WC after

  5. Tim
    • 16 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Do we have a captain poll for this gw¿

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      In quarantine atm.

    2. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      It'll likely be

      1st Kun
      2nd KDB
      3rd Auba
      4th Sterling
      5th Grealish

  6. JJeyy
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    FH thoughts?

    Leno
    Lundstram Stevens Alonso
    Sterling Grealish KDB Pepe
    Aguero Mcburnie Auba

    1. The Mandalorian
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Can't Che keeping a cs

      1. The Mandalorian
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        can't see

        1. JJeyy
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 11 days ago

          could swap him for doherty, just like alonso going foward

          1. The Mandalorian
            • 13 Years
            6 years, 11 days ago

            Villa will score they r fighting relegation

            1. The Mandalorian
              • 13 Years
              6 years, 11 days ago

              Laporte looks the best and scores in dgws

            2. JJeyy
              • 10 Years
              6 years, 11 days ago

              dont see him starting both

            3. Don Van Vliet
              • 12 Years
              6 years, 11 days ago

              West Ham also very much fighting relegation.
              Alonso much more of a risk than Doherty, however.

          2. Garth Marenghi
            • 10 Years
            6 years, 11 days ago

            Doherty will start, Alonso is questionable.

      2. _Ninja_
        • 15 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Alonso's a Midfielder who get the bonus of an occasional cleanie.

  7. SADIO SANÉ
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    B is clearly better right?

    a) Targett, Fleck, Bruno, Laca
    b) O'Connell, Saka, Mane, Samatta

    1. Twisted Melon
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      B

  8. Twisted Melon
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    FH team, anyone you would change?

    Hendo
    TAA Lundy Baldock
    KDB Sterling Grealish Sama
    Aguero Auba Vardy

    1. FPL_Devil
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Who is Sama? Did you mean Saka?

      1. FPL_Devil
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Rest of team looks good

    2. Twisted Melon
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Saka*

  9. FPL_Devil
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    This is my current team. Thoughts?
    Have BB and FH left. Laporte to Doherty for GW31+

    Pope-McCarthy
    TAA-Laporte-O’Connell-Justin-Fernandez
    Mane-KDB-Fernandes-Grealish-Shelvey
    Rashford-Jimenez-DCL

    Any comments appreciated:)

    1. Twisted Melon
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Not thinking to FH?

      1. FPL_Devil
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        No. Tbh I can’t quite see what I was thinking with my wildcard lol so my revert team isn’t that good.

  10. FCSB
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Is Sterling worth the extra investment over Mahrez??

    1. FPL_Devil
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      I don’t think so

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      one week punt ? then yes imo

      1. FCSB
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        yes it would be FH

    3. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Yes, think so

      1. FCSB
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        his last few games pre covid scores were terrible, hope he returns with the same level of form he started the season with

    4. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Bsilva could start over Mahrez.

      1. FCSB
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        is Raheem nailed ?? thanks

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 11 days ago

          no

        2. dunas_dog
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          6 years, 11 days ago

          No fair chance plays v Arsenal and rested with 20 minute cameo v Burnley with Chelsea 3 days later. But having said that other than KDB should get more minutes than most City mids

        3. _Ninja_
          • 15 Years
          6 years, 11 days ago

          Not nailed, will get about same mins as Aguero

  11. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    bb gw 30+

    gtg ?

    Henderson

    TAA* / targett / Egan
    KDB / Sterling / Grealish / McGinn / Fleck
    Auba / Aguero

    Leno / hanley* / doherty* / nketiah

    * : single gw

    thanks a lot 🙂

    1. Sid123
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Not sure Hanley and Nketiah are going to get many minutes to make the most of your bb

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        thanks. not sure about either as well to be honest. could downgrade doherty to upgrade hanley

        1. Ajax Hamsterdam
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 11 days ago

          could have boly and van aanholt instead

          1. Sid123
            • 6 Years
            6 years, 11 days ago

            I think that would work. Still have wolves coverage and guranteed players

            1. Ajax Hamsterdam
              • 11 Years
              6 years, 11 days ago

              cheers

  12. FCSB
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    on a FH, are Doherty and Mount better picks than TAA and McGinn ??

    thanks

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Don't think so.

      1. FCSB
        • 10 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        ah mate i just cant decide

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      no mcginn has two fixtures and taa is a legend 🙂

      1. Rocky FPL
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        This

    3. Garth Marenghi
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Yes, probably. Do we think McGinn starts both games?

  13. Sid123
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Thoughts on this bb team? A bit different with man city mids. 0.3 itb.

    Henderson leno
    TAA Doherty egan basham targett
    Kdb gundogan Grealish fernandes Douglas Luiz
    Aguero Jimenez auba

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      gundogan feels a nit like a man city spot wasted. doherty to laporte instead ?

  14. Champions League Varane
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Am I right to BB this?

    Leno McCarthy
    Trent Doherty Lascelles Justin Egan
    KDB Bruno Martial Saka Grealish
    Vardy Jimenez (K)un

    Saka or Duda also?

    1. DA Minnion (Former great)
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Yes

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Thank you - any reasoning?

        Saka or Duda in your opinion?

  15. mr messi
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Mahrez or Fernandes for this week?

    1. Rocky FPL
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Mahrez

      1. Champions League Varane
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Bruno

    2. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Mahrez

    3. HurriKane
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Bruno

  16. _Ninja_
    • 15 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Have Henderson and Stevens. Final SHU player?

    A. Lundstram
    B Fleck

    1. Rocky FPL
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      A between those two.

      1. Rocky FPL
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        Wait for team news though.

    2. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Wait for leaked team news & Lund if confirmed starter

    3. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years

      Cheers both

  17. dunas_dog

    Mahrez

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      * failed response to Mr Messi

  18. Rocky FPL
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Is Saka more likely to get minutes than Nketiah? If so, how?
    Nketiah is more explosive and is in form.

    1. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      I’d back Nketiah for minutes & maybe even a start vs. Brighton

    2. Garth Marenghi
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Yes. He can come in for tierney. He can also come on for Lacazette, and play lw then Aubameyang moves up top. The other issue for Nketiah is martinelli. Martinelli got that goal against Chelsea, hard to tell who gets more playing time between them. Both will gain more time than usual with the 5 subs, but we don’t know Arteta’s current preference.

  19. Wally711
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    On a FH, which team is best?

    1) Henderson
    Baldock-Stevens-Doherty-Alonso
    KDB-Mahrez-Grealish
    Vardy-Aguero-Aubomayang

    2) Henderson
    Baldock-Stevens- Doherty
    KDB-Mahrez-Grealish-Mane
    Aguero-Aubomayang

    3)Henderson
    Baldock-Stevens-Doherty-TAA
    KDB-Mahrez-Grealish

    1. dunas_dog

    2. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      I'm going 3 with Lundy/Sterling over Baldock/Mahrez.

  20. SADIO SANÉ
    • 10 Years

    Alisson Alonso Pepe
    OR
    Leno Fernandez Mane

    1. Redbull Sucks
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      The first combination just edges, but they are mostly equal

  21. Redbull Sucks
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Saka or Harvey Barnes (just for this GW)

    1. FPL Diet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      Mount?

      1. Redbull Sucks
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        I have Alonso already. Dont want Chelsea double up for a SGW

  22. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 11 days ago

    Best out of these two options chaps???

    A- Saiss, Mount, Fernandez

    2. maglia rosa
      • 15 Years
      6 years, 11 days ago

      I’d think A as Mount and Bruno much better than Cantwell and Laca. Doherty May haul, but may not.

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 11 days ago

        It’s Fernandez The Newcastle defender mate, I have Bruno tho he’s going nowhere!! Haha

          • 15 Years

          Ahhhhhh sorry bout that. Hahaha. If it’s for the double then clearly B I reckon much closer going forward.

    Hi guys and girls. Any thoughts on this shambles?

    Team below was my team post lockdown with BB, TC and FH remaining.

    Henderson
    Trent Doherty Sais Femenía Taylor
    Salah Kdb Bruno Saka Foden
    Rashford Dcl Jota

    Rival has his WC to play with so he’ll BB then WC next week which gives him a real advantage I reckon.
    Felt my original team would give me a fighting chance post Dgw so minimising the losses up against BB meant it’s been a FH for me.
    Kinda hoping rival misses out on Mount, Pva, Doherty hauls with us matching up on the big hitters.

    Waddya reckon?

    Henderson
    Doherty Lundstram Pva O’Connell
    Sterling Grealish Kdb Mount
    Aguero Aubameyang

    Ramsdale Nketiah Luiz Janmat

    Just a word of warning or those planning to wait for a lineup leak before AST v SHU deadline.
    There's a strong possibility FPL will crash that day. Be prepared either way
