We’re trying to keep calm, but are really struggling. Fantasy football returns tomorrow!! Three long months have passed and as with every year, players seem far more expensive this season. This seasons goal is to beat last years position of 33,870. GAMEWEEK 1 This seasons strategy may very well be to Wildcard after GW3, when there’s […]

Is this going to be the most open Premier League ever?
I’m not sure we’ll see a English Premier League season like 2015/2016 for many years, but this season may be the most open… After last season’s madness, it isn’t surprising that the managerial merry-go-round has been in full swing. With Manchester United finishing fifth, and 15 points off top spot, LvG was given the boot and replaced by Jose Mourinho. […]
Our Protea’s starting XI
I’ve been keeping a close eye on the Protea’s T20 side over the past few months. I haven’t said much, knowing there’s a world T20 competition on the horizon, I wanted to watch as many games as possible to see if we actually have a chance of beating India, the outright favourites for the competition. […]
Fantasy Football – GW30
We’ve been on a bit of a roll for 7 or 8 gameweeks now and we were hoping to keep it going this week, and luckily for us – we did. There were no clean-sheets in our team, but Alderweireld (7) managed to score a goal and Butland (5) made a few saves and picked up a […]
Fantasy Football – GW29
With the midweek fixtures, we decided it was time to take a risk. Very often, managers forget to change their sides for midweek games – meaning it’s a great time to climb the overall rankings. We took a huge risk and dropped Kane for Costa and gave him the armband. This week, Cresswell (6) kept a clean […]
Fantasy Football – GW28
With six green arrows in our previous seven weeks, our side seems quite settled and strong. We can’t say we’re making great strides though – seven weeks ago we were in position 62,260, six green arrows later and we’re only in position 52,845. Time for a few risks. This week, there were only eight fixtures, so the […]
Fantasy Football – GW18
We had a feeling that this week was going to be a high scoring one, and it was. But we must say – this season is so bizarre that it’s almost boring. The same players are scoring points every week. Alderweireld was our only defender who kept clean sheet for us. Barkley, Vardy and Ozil all got two assists (the amount […]
Fantasy Football – GW17
After two bad weeks and dropping 20,000 places – we have steadied the ship again. With a different captaincy decision – we could have had a huge Gameweek, but it wasn’t to be. Koscielny and Butland (Again!) kept clean sheets and picked up two and three bonus points respectively. Ozil got an assist (about his millionth this […]
Fantasy Football – GW16
GUT-WRENCHING! That’s what last weekend’s game week was for us. Alderweireld, Ozil and Vardy all got an assist, while Lukaku found the net. What made the week such a disaster, was our bench. We left Butland (7), Mahrez (21) and Francis (6) all on the bench. That’s a massive 34 points! We managed 49 points, when the […]
Fantasy Football – GW15
Apologies for us missing last weeks post – and it’s a real pity, as Gameweek 13 saw us rake it a very tasty 80 points, which saw us get inside the top 9,000 places globally. But as this season seems to have gone for us, we have a good week, followed by an average week. […]
