The second Fantasy Football Fest is almost here – and you can win two tickets to next Friday’s event!

If you’ve not heard about this huge social gathering, it’s the brainchild of Gianni Buttice, Ed Gray and the one and only Mark Sutherns.

Ourselves, Fantasy Football Hub and Fantasy Football Fix are all supporting the event, too.

The aim was and is to bring the Fantasy community together under one roof for a fun-filled evening, with activities for FPL managers including a quiz, stand-up sets and Q&As.

More importantly, though, Fest is also a brilliant opportunity to meet the people that make the community what it is. Many of the most well-known voices and faces from the Fantasy world will be present, while Kelly Somers and James Richardson will be hosting again.

Tickets for the Spring Fest cost £20 and are available here but there are a pair of tickets up for grabs via the giveaway below.

HOW TO WIN TICKETS

The good folk at Fantasy Football Fest have handed us two Spring Fest tickets to give away. To enter, head over to this Fantasy Football Community Tweet here.

You’ll need to tag a friend, follow @FFCommunity_and @ff_fest, and retweet to be in with a chance of winning.

The competition will close on Wednesday 13 April.

Good luck!

WHEN AND WHERE IS THE NEXT FANTASY FOOTBALL FEST?

Fantasy Football Fest will be taking place at 26 Leake Street, which is located right next to Waterloo Station in London.

The evening runs from 16:00 through until midnight on Friday 22 April, 2022.

      So much rotation involving not only normal players but possible youth team players that it'll probably end up a waste. Also it's generally a day for freak results.

              FH could be gold if the league is not done by the last game and some relegation matches in there too.

                It comes with risks. But if I’m happy with my team for 33, WC35 ahead of 36 and 37, it’s either 34 or 38. And the fun is higher in 38 I think

    Thoughts on Bruno Guimaraes? Just watched MOTD and it looked like he was everywhere for Newcastle, made a lot of surging runs into the box and carried the ball well. With it looking like Fraser is out and big doubts over Willock's fitness it seems like he may be the creative focus, he was playing further ahead of Shelvey in midfield from the looks of things. Funnily enough reminded me a bit of Bruno Fernandes in his first year at ManUtd, would be sitting behind the halfway line playing a ball out wide one minute and the next was darting into the box.

    My attempt at FH33 - keep flipping between bringing in Ronaldo or Bruno (current draft the former). Got coverage in most places but nervous about Salah/Trent ditching. My hope is City bag a clean sheet, hence double on them. Just fancy taking a chance on having a Son/Kane/Ronaldo (or Bruno) combo this gw. Bench might need a tidy up but dont trust Lei/Ars defence at moment, so got them as 2 cheapy enablers. Leaves me 0.1 in the bank. Plan to WC 34/35 as well

    Schmeichel*
    Schar*, Cancelo, Laporte
    Saka*, Jota, Maddison*, Son, Martineli*
    Kane, Ronaldo*

    Bench: Foster, Amartey*, White*, Gelhardt

        0,1 short off, but Saka to Kulusevski would free funds to upgrade a defender. Also cheaper goalkeepers if on WC. The problem is 5-4-1 / 4-5-1 formation with not enough good players. Double Leeds fodder attack to get 1 pt usually if needed.

          No cancelo is good for the season. Laporte may be similar to Cancelo minutes wise and James Is unpredictable for starts.

          I’d only go James if you are chasing big points otherwise cancelo is the good pick for the rest of the season.

              They have the FA cup. So good chance James plays midweek, then again in the fa cup at Wembley at the weekend, then benched midweek V arsenal. No chance Reece starts the next 3 then the game 3 days after arsenal as well. Too risky, and like you said, very injury prone.

    Amartey has DGW. BR said that he will definitely have to rotate. There is no guarantee if Amartey will start or play any minutes. Gordon had attacking returns in the last two and he will play at home again. I'm leaning to him a bit.

    Ramsdale*
    TAA - Robbo - Cancelo - Laporte

      Definitely - weg-donkey will only start 1 game out of the two and if your lucky (i.e. he doesn't get booked) it would be 2 points. Just one Wood goal means your in credit.

      The biggest bonus of the lot, Weg-Donkey is out of your team for good!

    Might downgrade Forster with a FT this week. Is it worth going Foster, or shall I just go for fodder at 3.9 and save the 0.2?

    Other keeper is Dubravka & Newcastle's fixtures are LIV, mci, ARS after this, whereas Foster doubles in 36.

    But then again, Watford are pretty useless.

      I think Fofana becomes a safe bet if Leics get knocked out of Europe this week (& Castagne dislodges Thomas in that scenario). Until then, chaos at the back aside from Schmeichel.

      I'd play Cornet. Ronaldo a gamble, Saka could easily blank too. Would probably pick a single GW over White.

        I could switch JWP and Ronaldo > Bruno and Toney, play Cornet and bench Toney. Which single gameweek over White? Any suggestions for Saka replacement?

          So depending on if you want to protect or improve rank, Salah or KDB would be good targets, if you can make it work that is. Saka is tough - he could do fine, or he and Arsenal may not - I'm turning against him. You could take a punt on Dewsbury-Hall even as an enabler here instead of JWP. Toney is an expensive bench option to have I feel. You could downgrade Foster to Jakupovic also to save cash.

        I can't see myself to dropping a double GW'ker even if he has been bad so far recently. But yeah next week he is a goner if there are no more pressing issues to deal with by that time.

    Anyone else thinking of risking it on Saint-Maximim over Wood? Also Salah (given record vs Utd) or KDB (given Pep's rotation)?

    Only going with 7 DGWs atm ...

    Schmeichel
    Cancelo, Tarkowski, Schar
    Fernandes (c), Maddison (vc), Son, Salah, Cornet
    Kane, Saint-Maximim

    Jakupovic, Cedric, Tsimikas, Delap

      I'm risking with Saint-Maximin. Taking probably quite big risks, taking out James to get more budget and bringing in Saint Maximin for 2 GW's probably. Also thinking about captaining Maddison. Want to get better overall rank and I'm thinking there's no way to get higher considerably withour risks.

        Yeah, I've finally had a green arrow after literally months of red. Want to get back into that 100k (currently 225k). Have 2 FHs and BB to make it happen.

        Yet have unexpectedly retaken the lead in my mini league having been 61 points down 3 GWs ago, I'm now 25 up, which is making think slightly differently about what risks to take. Feels like I need to cover Salah now I'm ahead.
