Scout Notes on today’s FA Cup action will be heading your way tomorrow, for now, we thought we’d bring you word that, as we did in January last season, we’ll be introducing a half-season membership. The price of membership to Fantasy Football Scout will drop from £15 to £10 for the remainder of the season on Monday.

This half season offer will give access to the Members Area, Members Ticker and Members articles, right up until June 1 and arrives in time for those still pondering their January wildcard selections.

We’re currently working on updated Player Projections that will offer our view on the players for the remaining 18 gameweeks. We’re also producing some FAQ based tutorials that will help new and existing members get the most from the Members area and tools. We expect both to be published early next week to coincide with the half-season offer. Click here for details on the benefits available to Members.

Coverage on the Scout gets back to normal next week after the busy holiday programme, with our usual regulars making reappearance. We’re also unveiling a new guest writer who will be contributing members and non-members articles for the remainder of the season. With at least two new writers to be announced from the recent “Scouting for Writers” article, the next few weeks should see plenty of progress. More on that next week.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Hi everyone.
    If a man says about A.
    Someone say A is not good and risk. And he says people advise him is ridiculous, idiot...because he says A is really good, not risk. he fights to die to protect his idea about A.

    But in the end of the day, he chooses B 😆

      Okay;
      Firstly, not 'everyone' said one thing, it was you and one other person.
      Secondly, I haven't even gone for the second option, I said I may or may not go one way or the other.

          Im holding on to Raylor, atleast to the Wildcard. I think Pardew rates him higher than Obertan, and if he wan Santon/Simpson at the backs, i can see alot of starts for him on the right midfield

    I have been planning a wildcard midfield of

    Bale, Silva, Dempsey, Walters, McClean - so no Nani (as long as he doesn't go mental V City today ...)

    Is it worth disrupting any of that for Ben Arfa? At 5.4 he is too expensive for me to be a fifth midfielder, so I'd be dropping one of the first four, and I don't know if it's worth it, given the rotation risk hanhing over HBA's head. Any advice?

    Cheers lads 🙂

    I've taken a punt on Ben-Arfa in midfield.
    With Ba now gone, i think he'll get the gametime and playing just behind the striker in an attacking role.
    Liking Newcastle's fixtures also.
    On another note, i've stayed off this site in recent days, far too much sarcasm, bickering and bad vibes.

      Ben Arfa worked out well enough for me when I had him but getting him is a risk since his gametime is questionable.

      It's a shame about the bad vibes but it seems over the last month or so the site's picked up a number of posters who aren't too bright. The amount of rubbish that's being posted is getting frustrating.

      Popular front-line. Mata's fixtures are good but is he worth the money - Sess or Dempsey preferred.

      Lindegard? Can see why people are picking him but I can see some disappointment when United have good fixtures - he won't play and you'll lose the cleansheet points.

      I like Huth's inclusion. Kompany over Richards for gametime and bonus points?
