Welcome to the Fantasy Football Scout mini-leagues and community competitions round-up after the first Gameweek of the 2022/23 season.

See this article for details of last season’s winners.

FFSCOUT OPEN-TO-ALL LEAGUE

Alex Guttridge is the early leader in our Fantasy Football Scout mini-league (league code trz3n7). He scored 107 without playing a chip and is 142nd overall, only 12 points behind world number one Andrew Rogers (who triple captained Haaland), despite leaving Mitrovic’s 13 points on the bench!

FFSCOUT COMMUNITY MEMBERS LEAGUE

Alex also leads our Fantasy Football Scout Members mini-league, which is also open to all, the league code being visible in the widget on the FFS Home Page when signed in.

LAST MAN STANDING

See this article for details of how to enter and play TorresMagic’s Last Man Standing competition (league code 88xxin). New entrants must have passed all the previous safety scores (see LMS Update).

The safety score for Gameweek 1 was 44, with 137 teams eliminated and 2,201 surviving.

The top scorer was Jonathan Muyimba, who played his Bench Boost for 102 points.

It reopened at 3am on Wednesday morning for 50 odd new entries and will open again at 9pm on Thursday evening for another 50.

HEAD-TO-HEAD LEAGUES

Entries for MIR’s FFS Head-to-Head Leagues have now closed.

9,483 teams entered before the deadline (1,100 more than last season) and it is hoped that these will be allocated to Divisions in the 9 League pyramid before Gameweek 2.

All teams will have had a fixture in Gameweek 1 – they just won’t know who they’ve played till later!

Moshe has had six successive top 20k finishes, two of them in the top 4k, and is 191st in our FFS Career Hall of Fame, while Ignazio has never finished outside the top 30k in his ten seasons, with four top 10k finishes including two in the top thousand, and is 66th in our FFS Career Hall of Fame.

MULTIPLE TOP 10K FINISHES

Rados Stramput is the early leader in my Multiple Top 10k Finishes mini-league (new league code wid4fw), which is for teams with two or more top 10,000 finishes, after playing his Bench Boost for 89 points. He had three successive top 10k finishes from 2014/15 to 2016/17.

    Teams have now been allocated to Divisions in the FFS Head-to-Head Leagues.
    See https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/head-to-head-leagues/ for details of how to find out which Division you are in and how you fared in Gameweek 1.
    Ignazio La Rosa leads League 1 by virtue of having the best overall rank in that League.

      Hi, I competed in the FFS H2H last season and finished 12th in L4 D3 and my fpl id was 112862 (last season). I have just checked the H2H Leagues for this season I am not there?. When I registered for FPL this season it shown FFS H2H League-Entry (vhuv6z) in my Leagues so I don't know why this has disappeared especially because the entry was supposed to be automatic if I completed the FFS H2H last season. My FPL id is 5181 for this season and my name is Wayne Dean. Can you please look into this for me.

        Apologies. It appears that the H2H Leagues situation is not as advanced as I thought.

          Thanks for the update but I am concerned that I will not be entered in the FFS H2H League for this season because FFS H2H League-Entry (vhuv6z) has disappeared from my Leagues on the FPL website. Any further updates will be greatly appreciated and if you require anymore info please let me know. PS I have been competing in the FFS H2H Leagues since it was launched and would be gutted if I can't continue to do this.

        The LG9 search and Fixtures and Results still refer to ids and Divisions as they were in GW38 last season.

        League Tables does show totals after GW1 this season, but first you have to locate your new division!

          Why is my points 63 when I got 79 points this GW. I still think my id is mixed up with my old id.

            A search of LG9 shows a points score of 67 for you, and Fixtures & Results shows your score as 62 - very strange.
            But these probably both have some relation to your score in GW38 last season, and this is a problem for all teams, not just yours.

            However, it has now been discovered that 1,200 teams appear to have been accidentally omitted from this season's leagues; this is being investigated, and the draw will then have to be redone to include the missing ones.

              Hi REDLIGHTNING, When the draw is redone will we need to enter a new league code for the FPL website or will the existing one vhuv6z be valid because at the moment it states 'This league is closed to new entries.'. Sorry to pester you again and I will let you get on trying to sort out the problem. All the best.

                The number of teams ranked in vhuv6z (excluding those listed as New Entries) is 9,483, which requires 475 twenty team Divisions, 220 of which would be in League 9. But the Leagues currently only contain only 8,280 teams in 414 Divisions, 158 of which are in League 9, which means that about 1,203 teams have been omitted.

                That probably doesn't help your team if it is no longer ranked in vhuv6z. Perhaps you should ask MIR again about this. I don't know whether there is any way of finding out why it disappeared from vhuv6z or of reinstating it.

                  Hi REDLIGHTNING, Has per your advice I sent the info regarding the FFS H2H League-Entry (vhuv6z) has disappeared from my Leagues on the FPL website to MIR. I have had no response yet from MIR. Do you know if he is aware of the problem. Thanks again for all your help in this matter.

                    Will (TopMarx) has reported the problem of the missing teams to Mat and is waiting for him to fix it.

                    I have also informed Will of your problem.

                    Will and Mat do the technical stuff for MIR's H2H Leagues.

                        Will says your team disappearing from the FFS H2H League-Entry mini-league is a question for FPL really.

                        Thanks for the update REDLIGHTNING. It now seems like I won't be in the FFS H2H League-Entry (vhuv6z) through no fault of my own. I am gutted because I really enjoyed competing in this League since it was launched.

      I wouldn't risk leaving FFS H2H League-Entry before the number of Divisions in League 9 has increased from 158 to 220.

      The omitted teams may not all be League 9 ones, and if some of them aren't then the other Leagues may be affected too..
