As we close on a century of episodes it was time to freshen things up and bring new voices to accompany my drone and that of grumpy Granville. In this weeks’ episode, we draft in both “Professor” Chris Atkinson and his “Rate My Team” computer, plus long-time community member and contributor, Jonty, for a new ScoutCast regular.

Don’t worry, the usual format remains intact although, having recorded this just minutes after last night’s whistles, Granville escapes the usual mini-league grilling. Not surprisingly, there’s plenty of “Granny’s miffed” to endure, plus “All Aboard” and the weekend preview. That’s’ rounded off by the “Full Jonty” a brand new feature that will bring you, the community, into our weekly ramblings.

Have a listen then get involved by mailing jonty@fantasyfootballscout.co.uk

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

    was looking forward to tomorrow/saturday morning with 2 free transfers after all the transfers but doesn't really looking like many viable options.

    other than samba, maybe, any other recent transfers worth a punt?

          He's a CM (defensive) right now. Cover for Lucas maybe. Quite good defensively, not sure he's got the passing range for the Liverpool system.

      "Assists are awarded to the player from the goal scoring team, who makes the last touch before the goal is scored.

      If after this touch, an opposing player touches the ball outside the penalty area altering the intended destination of the ball, then no assist is given, except if this intervention directly results in an own goal."
