Policy and research… an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Running, hill walking, FPL, music, cricket, football.
All good things… Lovely to give #SaintEtienne a UK send off for (very likely) the final time…

#fpl GW5 = 49 points and an OR of 1.3m. Not good, not terrible. Will wildcard at some point in the next 20 days. See you in October!

#fpl GW5 - not much time as off to see @bobpetesarah.bsky.social do their thing. MGW in for Wirtz. Hoping for a pre-IB push into the top million. Nothing can stop us! (Hopefully) #saintetienne

#fpl Nice 750k green arrow. Very steady stuff. MGW in for Wirtz the most likely move for GW5 and then it’s all change during the IB... Until next time.

#fpl Bruno out, Palmer (c) in. OR: 2m, WC still due in GW6. The urge for a Calafiori hit has been resisted… May variance be kind to you all this week 😀

My niche GW4 #fpl dilemma… I have Raya but no other Arsenal defenders. I plan to WC during the international break. I need to play Thomas at home to Brighton. I have the funds… worth a hit for Calafiori (ie does he score 4 points more)?

#FPL I need to set up for GW3 today as heading away and no access to internet etc until post deadline. Will therefore miss team news et al so playing safe - will likely bring in Hall and Gross for Rodon and Tzolis (Thomas back on the bench). TC will go on the robot. What will be, will be.

#FPL Approx 5.3m green arrow so no complaints this week. 110 points, upto 2.2m. Some potential issues to address in GW3 include Rodon, Van Hecke and Tzolis. Not ideal, but will ponder some options.

Glum Wirtz owner here. When is Szoboszlai getting his #fpl points then?

#fpl Rational head - it’s a marathon, not a sprint; variance; in 10 mins it’s all out of my control. FPL head - how do this lot screw me for another 7.5m gameweek rank? Submitted with some residual post GW1 angst. Bruno (c)... ATB everyone!
August 28, 2026 at 5:23 PM
The view on poor early #fpl gameweeks is to ignore rank - and it’s sound advice. One extra small tip I have is to look at the LiveFPL website and keep tabs on how many points you are off the top 100k. I’m 42 off - that can be erased by a couple of good (lucky?) captaincies. Helps keep perspective 😀
August 25, 2026 at 7:08 AM
#FPL I’ve had better opening gameweeks - a rank of 7.5m is hardly ideal - but will keep this lot of point dodgers for GW2. I was never going to bench boost but those wasted points are frustrating. And Wirtz feels like a forced error on my part but hopefully things pick up. Until next time…
August 24, 2026 at 9:11 PM
#fpl Here we go again. To paraphrase, insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. In that spirit, welcome back Wirtz 😀 Otherwise fairly template. No chips for the foreseeable. Good luck everyone!

A warm evening, #fpl back up and running. Pondering the inclusion of Garner in GW1 squad and I get stung by a wasp. There’s probably a message in that. Namely, leave it for a couple of weeks.

Following the Football Manager esque ‘let’s change the mentality setting to cautious’ disaster class this evening, my mood is immediately improved by seeing that S4 of Strange New Worlds starts next week. That’s a bonus #SNW
July 15, 2026 at 10:03 PM
Oh well, I hope Spain take Argentina to the cleaners (TBF, they would have done that to us)
July 15, 2026 at 9:04 PM
Hottest June day on record? What else to do on an evening like this but sit outside, have some Rioja and listen to Spacemen 3.
June 25, 2026 at 9:56 PM
@supertrain.bsky.social I reckon this would have worked in the current SNW era… best of both worlds, even.
June 22, 2026 at 2:08 PM
#fpl Pleased to get XI out and finish the season with a green and final rank of (approx) 52k. Delighted as it has been a strange/tough/frustrating slog of a season... variance has been kind to me since GW32. Enjoy the summer!
May 24, 2026 at 5:45 PM
#fpl GW38 madness. Bowen comes in for Pedro with my solitary transfer. Have avoided a hit - but it means Mane over Saka. The times we live in! Good luck all!
May 24, 2026 at 1:33 PM
Totally unplanned but watched the ‘Miracle of Istanbul’ which then prompted a long overdue listen to the Tears debut (and only) album which came out about a week later. A welcome blast of nostalgia all round.
May 21, 2026 at 7:52 AM
#fpl So congrats to Arsenal and all that. But now GW38 could be a real pain to navigate. Until then, a welcome green - with (unlikely) thanks to Mane! OR: 71k
May 19, 2026 at 9:33 PM
#fpl In this season, we take miracles when we can
May 17, 2026 at 4:13 PM
#fpl GW37. Need 3 Arsenal but skint. Raya in, funded by DCL to Mane. Leaves me change for next week as well. A lot of EO etc covered so Mane is my mad (or unwise) bit of fun. Saka (c), 86k. Good luck all!
