#FPL #GW11 We've got to that point in the season where everyone's team feels a bit similar (seems to come earlier every year, like 🎄) Gyok>Mateta 🌍 OR 1.09m

Being up all night covering a by-election is not great for #FPL transfer planning when there's a Friday deadline.

Before the gw6 wildcard: 4.3m 🌍 After the gw8 bench boost: 1.1m 🌍 83pts this week. I think Saka's calling. #FPL

I think I saw Jeremy Doku nutmeg two defenders at the same time tonight. What a ridiculously good footballer he is.

Give it to Allardyce until the end of the season.

Managed to get some Super Furry Animals tickets for next May. Not quite the bargain price they were first time round... #SFA #bargen

Decent wildcard - decent progress. Up to the top 2.5million 🥳 If my subs can repeat this next week on a bench boost I'll be very happy. #FPL

Only three of these are surviving on the wildcard. Warra season so far. #FPL

What could have been for Joe! I'll take it anyway. #FPL

I've worked at the BBC for nearly 15 years. People are always talking about a guy called Ed Poll, who I've never met but is across all kinds of big decisions. Last week, I learned it's actually a department called Editorial Policy.

The early season curse is broken. #FPL

When your star men are central defenders you know it's not going well. #fpl

Started Wirtz instead of Thiago. Skill issue #FPL

Very rarely do I offer up #fpl advice but last year I came up with this thread, hot off the heels of finishing 21st overall in 23/24. (have I mentioned that before?). Anyway, here's a few things I've learnt about this game over the years. 🧵...

You wouldn't know them, they go to a different school.

Top tip: always give your trainers a good shake before putting them on. There might be a surprise inside…

Finally found my three-digit #FPL ID. Won't be hard to remember.

If we need Gen AI to boil an egg we might well be doomed as a civilization.

How can any news organisation mislead their readers to this extent just to make clickbait? It means grandparents with full time custody of children but it makes it sound like grandparents helping out. And £79 a week is so much money, they will create and then destroy real hope - just for clicks.

Former Wales national team coach Rob Page is to return to the dug out as head coach of Liverpool Under-21s.

Have deleted my earlier chart - clearly bad mistakes but would also like to set out what happened, as a cautionary tale. Although it makes me look extremely silly, it's worth sharing.

PSG have won the Champions League, at long last, and all it took was eight managers, 14 years, £2bn in transfer fees, more in wages, one hyperinflationary spiral and the complete restricting of European football. Easy to love the team. Less so the project. observer.co.uk/news/sport/a...

I knew I liked a Salah captaincy, and here’s the proof. 🇪🇬👑. Enormous fun pitting myself against the pros, even if it went a bit Nottingham Forest at the end. #fpl

Not quite the 21st placed finish of last season, but it ends with a green arrow and a fourth top 50k finish in 8 seasons of playing #fpl. Frustrating last few weeks overall, but lessons learnt for next season.

TogetherStronger Euro2016 vibes from Glasner...

Crystal Palace are the third first-time winners of the FA Cup this century The last ten new winners Crystal Palace (2025) Leicester City (2021) Wigan Athletic (2013) Wimbledon (1988) Coventry City (1987) Ipswich Town (1978) Southampton (1976) Leeds United (1972) Chelsea (1970) Liverpool (1965)

There is still joy to be had in football. Well done Palace - one in the eye for xG #FACup

Friday night triple captain - why not eh? Preparing myself for crushing disappointment. #fpl

End of a short era. Handing on the trophy, to the current world no 2 by the looks of things. #FPL #FPLCommunity

Remember the National? The short-lived news service for Wales closed in 2022, but last month the title was "relaunched" at the same web address, declaring itself: "Independent. Trusted. Unapologetically Welsh." That tagline, and everything else about the site, was a sham...
