FPL Clarification – The Checklist

There still seems to be some confusion amongst the Fantasy Premier League community regarding a number of elements associated with the changes implemented by the game this week.

To clarify matters, we’ve put together a list of points that has, this afternoon, been checked and confirmed by the FPL.

  • Transfers made this week are all free. Any points deducted from your total will be refunded to you once the Gameweek two deadline has passed.
  • Any Wildcards played in advance of Gameweek two will be returned to players once the Gameweek two deadline has passed.


  • The number of transfers you make in advance of Gameweek two’s deadline will be wiped and reset to zero once the deadline passed. This will mean that they will not count against you and become a factor should you be tied on points with a manager in your mini-league.


  • Price rises are frozen ahead of Gameweek two. Once the deadline has passed all transfer totals that are collected by players will be reset. Therefore, players will need to accrue further transfers in and transfers out next week in order to have their price rise or fall.


  • Gameweek one points will remain in the game and count towards the FPL overall points tallies. Mini-league admins can decide to reset their mini-leagues to start on Gameweek two should they wish. In the interest of those managers unable to log in and make changes prior to Gameweek one, Fantasy Football Scout will reset their mini-leagues accordingly.


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

    First post Ever!
    Done alot of chopping and changing this week. Here is my RMT

    Given/Hilario

    Kompany/Senderos/Brown/Bosingwa/Simpson

    Taarabt/N'Zogbia/Malouda/Silva/Dyer

    Suarez/Aguero/Suarez

    Will Hilario get the nod over Turnbull?
    Bosingwa and Senderos are obv not nailed on
    Malouda did nothing last week
    Had Bent but i think Agueros price will rise.
    Also, would AJ be a better shout than Zamora now

    Whats the verdict?

      There's every chance Silva's price will rise in those 2 weeks meaning you might not be able to bring him back into your team without a reshuffle. Just saying.
