The Big One
It’s the BFFA Big One. The tried and tested (albeit inferior) traditional form of English Fantasy Football that requires each manager to build a team with a budget of £150,000,000. These teams must have no more than three players from any PL club, excessive transfers are penalised by point deductions, and everyone gets a Haaland (if they want one). Every team also gets to pick a Captain and there are bonus chips to play across the season – a Bench Boost, a Free Hit (unlimited transfers) and Triple Captain points. This is a classic-style fantasy league open to all BFFA managers past and present.
This week Jaysokker, Alleviate the Tedium and Peltier all made bold strides northwards with 70+ scores; Jaysokker taking the lead away from stalwarts Ampadu-du-du. And I nearly forgot to mention that BattleVar Galactico are building a strong comeback with back-to-back big scores, 67 & 74, lifting them off the bottom and back into the mix!
On top of hosting a league for the BFFA faithful, we are also involving some unsuspecting stars of the game. This week’s guest is England international, Kieran Trippier. Last season’s Newcastle United Player of the Year has scored five Premier League goals, twenty-eight PL assists, and one goal for England – in the 2018 World Cup Semi-Final against Croatia. And tonight, he also registered another Champions League assist in a historic night for the Toon Army. When he’s not busy embarrassing the French, he manages an FPL team aptly called Toon Army, currently second place in the NUFC players league, just one point behind fellow defender Fabian Schär (who also went one better at St. James’ by scoring tonight).
Next week, a striker who has represented England alongside Trippier on five occasions, most recently in the goalless draw against Italy last November, and fifty-five times in total. This player has scored 26 times in the Premier League and 25 times (so far) in Serie A, becoming the first Englishman to net 10+ in a season in the Italian top flight in over thirty years. He’s been out of the country for a couple of years now, but he is keeping in touch with the EPL through FPL while resting his ACL. He is an Arsenal fan who was enjoying Ødegaard’s 17FPts this weekend, but has just fallen to last place in his team’s mini-league…
