With the Members area now several months into its existence, we’re about to enter a new phase that will see further development work taking place. This will add an array of new features and also marks the end of the early season offer price of £12.50. From Sunday 17th October the fee for Membership will revert to the standard price £20.

So, if you’re yet to sign up as a Member you have just over a week to get in at the offer price of £12.50.

You can view the current benefits here or watch the a YouTube movie we’ve put together, handing you a preview of the current features on offer.

In addition to the current crop of features, Phase Two of the Members area will bring a host of new offerings. Here’s a glimpse at some of the stuff currently on the development list…

  • View all Opta stats by Gameweek – Filter Player and Team statistics for a single gameweek.
  • View all Opta stats by Gameweek Range – Filter Player and Team statistics for a range of gameweeks. So, for example, you can use this facility to view Arsenal’s data over a range of Gameweeks with or without Cesc Fabregas. Custom filters such as this will be supplied as suggestions.
  • View all Opta stats for Home/Away fixtures – Filter player data by Home and Away fixtures to find those players who perform best on the road and those who only produce for home fixtures.
  • View all Opta stats against specific opponents/group of opponents – View those players and teams who raise their game against the cream and the “flat-track bullies” who always produce against the bottom four.
  • New Player and Team Tables – New calculation tables will provide new key data for each position. For example you’ll be able to view stats such as Goal Attempts per minute/start, Crosses per minute/start to help analyse player performance.
  • Revised Player Projections – The new Projection tables will utilise the Opta data to “project” Fantasy returns based on performance stats such as Goals Attempts, Key Passes, Successful Crosses, as well as key Fantasy data such as Goals, Assists and Clean Sheets. This data will be cross referenced with Team statistics and data from previous seasons to create Player Projections that will automatically update each week.

All this goodness is in the works and we’re looking to deliver it in stages over the next few months. I will bring you more on the timescales involved in these features soon. Of course, all our current Members will have access to these features until their Memberships expire at the end of the season.

In addition to the above, Pure Olivia has continued his superb work on the Members Season Ticker and we currently have some exciting new features in test that will once again, hand Members extra tools to help with fixture analysis. We will bring you some more details once our testing stage is complete – I may even produce another movie to take you through the feature set.

If you’re yet to sign up and you want to upgrade your registration to a Member before the price rise then click here. Those without a Fantasy Football Scout account can get one here and subscribe as a Member.

Remember, the current price of £12.50 rises to £20 on Sunday 17th October.

For those who are unable or just don’t wish to use the Paypal payment system for Membership, you can now send cheques and postal orders to the following addresss…

Fantasy Football Scout Payment Centre
17 Wilmar Close
Uxbridge
Middlesex
UB8 1AS

Cheques should be made payable to “Fantasy Football Scout Ltd”.

Please be sure to register a “Free” account first and include your username and the email address you used to sign up with with your payment.

Once we receive your payment your account will be upgraded to a Member and you will be sent an email confirmation.

    Ethers to Fabregas or Malouda to Fabregas this week? I have Drogba and Cole. My take is that Malouda will get benched at least in one of the upcoming 4 games. I'd be looking to get him back in from GW12 -> and I don't think losing 0.4m is such a big deal, because you play this game for points not value.

      You're right that 0.4 is not a big deal but only as long as you ARE gaining points from that trade. If Malouda is to be rested at all then wolves at home seems the most likely but even if that's the case I still fancy him to get amongst the points vs villa and blackburn, and certainly outscore etherington with his crumby fixtures.

    Sorry for the re-post, but does anyone know how you qualify for the fantasy cup? I got 51 points last gameweek, I thought that is the only criteria you need to fulfil but I cant find my name in the list of games?

              There are two reasons for drinking wine; one is when you are thirsty, to cure it; the other, when you are not thirsty, to prevent it...Prevention is always better than a cure.
              Thomas Love Peacock, English novelist and poet, (1785-1866)

      I think Kerzhakov will score. He's been on fire recently. If Ireland scores (though hopefully the don't), I wish it's the great Spartak Moscow player Aiden McGuidy 🙂

        7/1 first goalscorer but i think Ireland will get the first goal, keane @ 11/2 sounds good to be. Will be a very tight game. Hope McGeady does well too.

          He's been quite good, I like him a lot. I like that he doesn't seem to be shocked by some parts of the Russian reality, such as an awful pitch or an empty stadium. He obviously needs some more time to get used to his new teammates and the way we play, but it should come soon. Spartak loves to play through short passes, while McGeady loves to get the ball and go himself as far as possible. When he starts to play more with his partners he'll be awesome I think.
