Update on FFScout Memberships

In light of the Premier League’s recent announcement, Fantasy Football Scout would like to clarify the situation for our existing members.

The Premier League is now suspended until April 4, which means all Gameweek 30 and 31 fixtures have been postponed.

That, in turn, means there are no more matches of Fantasy relevance in the month of March.

While our Members’ tools remain open to use, and strategy-based articles will continue to be posted behind the paywall, we appreciate that, even as we all look forward to the return of the league, there is no immediate Gameweek to prepare for.

We would encourage you not to cancel your Scout membership as, once you do, you will immediately lose the benefits of access to the Members Area, data, tools and any articles we produce behind the paywall.

Instead, if you signed up for a rolling monthly subscription that has missed (or will in the future miss) a Gameweek due to the Premier League suspension, we are happy to offer a cancellation and partial refund for the relevant period. If so, get in touch with support@fantasyfootballscout.co.uk.

Naturally, should further postponements occur in the Premier League, beyond April 4, then this policy will continue for that period, so you won’t be paying for Gameweeks that you miss.

What to do if you think you might have coronavirus*

If you think you might have coronavirus or you’ve been in close contact with someone who has it:

  • stay at home and avoid close contact with other people
  • do not go to a GP surgery, pharmacy or hospital
  • use the NHS 111 online coronavirus service to find out what to do next

The 111 coronavirus service will tell you if you need to continue to stay at home (self-isolate) or if you need medical help.

        I think there's already a vaccination, available for the rich and powerful of course. Take advantage of population control then announce a vaccination in 12 months time.

    Who is expecting autosub points for a flagged KDB this GW 😀

  3. BNMC

    The game still has to "update" even with no fixtures...

    I know no one knows answer but what do you think - If season was voided presumably fpl would void also but if they went down route of finishing season as of now and declaring Liverpool champions and promoting Leeds and West Brom with no relegation then our overall score would be part of our fpl record?

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      I think the season in FPL will count regardless of what happens to the real Premier League.

      1. FFSbet.com
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 15 days ago

        Hope it stays 6.5k

    2. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      Voiding the season may end up death to football for many teams in the lower FA leagues.

    3. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      I hope not, my rank is awful

    4. DeadStarComing
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      FPL as a website seems to be so "locked in". They don't seem to have the ability to adjust anything. I'm not moaning about this but it just seems to be how it is. I imagine the overall rank will apply - however it all ends up.

    5. Forza
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      Even if the official season is voided, the FPL season might still count.

      The problem with voiding the Premier League is that different teams have played different fixtures, but we all have the same fixture list every GW in FPL, so the problem isn't there.

    6. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      A 22 team Premier League would be interesting. Temporary flashback to the early 90's.

      1. Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 15 days ago

        Klopp would love that - Christmas Day fixtures - just like in the good old days,

  5. RealVirg
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 15 days ago

    Should the fixture ticket be updated to reflect postponed games. There could be folks living under rocks unaware of the Corona...but still fantasy enthusiasts

    Lads help me plz.

    I have 2 free transfers. Can i use them now to refresh my non playing defs or whatever and still have 2 free transfers for gw31?

    Enlighten me plx.

    1. BNMC
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      Rules haven't changed, you can't have more than 2 FTs at once.

    2. DeadStarComing
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      If you have 2 free transfers ahead of the GW31 deadline (as GW30 has just passed) then going by what FPL have said you should use 1, or you will lose it.

      1. alfast1c
        • 13 Years
        4 years, 15 days ago

        so i already lost1. ok tnx

  7. DeadStarComing
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 15 days ago

    Just before I sign off for a bit, it's important people remember FPL is a separate entity to the Premier League. FPL as a game may decide to just end the season as/when they want even if the Premier League is delayed to much later on.

  8. FOO FIGHTER
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 15 days ago

    Just a heads up from the reply I received from FPL about my complaint re many receiving points from starting a flagged KDB and receiving autosub points when he did not play vs UTD and the match vs Arsenal was cancelled. Autosub is BS.

    -------
    We don't yet know when this game will be rescheduled but it'll be added to a future gameweek and will be displayed on the fixture list when the announcement is made.

    Points can't be backdated so any points scored in the rescheduled fixture will count towards the gameweek in which the fixture is played.

    You would have to have these players in your starting 11 for that gameweek or you won't score any points for those players in the rescheduled game.

    The rules state the free hit chip and wildcard can't be cancelled once confirmed.
    Also, the bench boost and triple captain chip can't be cancelled once the gameweek deadline has passed.

    All points have now been updated, with any eligible auto substitutions and captain/vice captain substitutions processed. The league tables are currently updating.

    We understand this is disappointing but in the interest of consistency we must adhere to the rules as they're written.

    Regards

      Did people really get KDB auto-subs?
      Never knew that.

      Can you link some example teams?

      1. DeadStarComing

          Never mind, I read this wrong!

          Yeah, that's absolutely fine. My rival got Barnes in for KDB and I'm not moaning about that.

          1. Hazz

            Didn't even know it was a point of contention!

    2. TRIPOS TOPPER

      not sure you had a leg to stand on

    3. DeadStarComing
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      I agree with FPL. What was your issue? Why wouldn't an auto sub come in for KDB? Those are the rules any other game week and have been for years.

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 15 days ago

        If you start a flagged player you should be well aware he is not going to score points.

        What about those managers who do not start with flagged players and bench them.

        I reckon the rules will change next season.

        Element of luck should be abandoned from this game.

        1. DeadStarComing
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          4 years, 15 days ago

          Lol. One like this I struggle to grasp if you're being serious? Lots of flagged players play and score points. I think your wrong - that rule won't change.

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 15 days ago

            Majority only play one flagged player, KDB.

            1. DeadStarComing
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              4 years, 15 days ago

              Maybe FPL should make it so that if anyone plays a flagged KDB they don't get an autosub? Or even better - you only get the autosub if they scored 2 points or less?

              1. FOO FIGHTER
                • 4 Years
                4 years, 15 days ago

                Or maybe live subs.

        2. Hazz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 15 days ago

          LOL

          If I could count the amount of times I have started a Yellow-Flagged player due to hope of them starting...

          Press conferences often don't divulge all the information. You lose nothing by chancing 'starting' the flagged player, if you so wish to do so.

          The risk of a cameo is punishment enough as it is. The flag is just an indicator unless red (suspended, loaned, long term injury etc.)

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 15 days ago

            It is your choice to start with a flagged player, not gain free points from the bench.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years

          Are you being serious? The rules are really clear on this

      By the way, my email has been sent to the design team.

      I'm surprised that they didn't ask you to grow a pair.

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 15 days ago

        Oh believe me, I have a very big pair especially getting 13 points from autosub the whole season not depending on flagged players getting me the points 😉

    7. RoysCallerAnne

      Your "complaint" is pathetic. i'd they say they all fell around the place laughing, you were lucky to even receive a response.

      Imagine being #1 and taking a ht that took you off top spot then the season is cancelled.

    4. El Presidente

    Hang on - I had 2 FT but didn't use them before the deadline because I didn't think it would happen - have I lost a FT here if I could have got one after the update?

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      Yes, you have lost a FT.

      Yep. It's lost forever that tranny

  14. BNMC

    I'd take a 22-team season if it means no EFL Cup; City will have one less trophy to win.

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      I think that it would be better to restrict the League Cup to Championship league and lower.

    Hi TM you out there

    How does this affect LMS? Made 2 transfers for this week for a - 4. Would seem somewhat harsh to be eliminated for making a transfer with no games played :(.

    1. thegaffer82
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      Harsh;

      But fair

    2. BNMC
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 15 days ago

      I think he posted earlier today that the LMS would be paused for these 2 weeks

      1. Hazz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 15 days ago

        Makes sense. It's less beholden to a H2H, set GW format.

        If there are few GWs remaining, it can be tweaked to knock out a greater percentage of people each week.

        (Or at least so I guess.)

    3. Hy liverpool

      Won't be eliminated don't be worry.

    How has your GW gone so far?

    Which of your players were benched? Did you get any injuries? How did your bench perform? Did your captain return?

    My brother bought a one month BT sports pass last week for 25 quid.

    Oh how I chuckled when he told me that!

    He called them and asked if he can get a refund, seen as though pretty much every sporting competition is cancelled now. I think you can guess their response...

    1. Fantasy Gold

      £25?

      I get BT for £10 a month.
