Game week 12 is now past tense, scores are in, and we're 32% of the comp down.
And yes, FPL still continues to tease and amuse and everything befuddling!
Well done everyone; no matter what your score was, it’s only the 12th week down of a long season, so onward and upwards from here.
Just to recap:
First off, give yourself a big hand –
you’re one of (already) a massive
12,505,046 players world-wide who have joined the EPL Fantasy Comps comp – WOW!!

Delta Blues (@guyofthetiger) again holding with a score of 560 points.
So BANG!!
Our leader board shows just how close the scores are, right down the ladder.
In another generally lows-scoring football round, where the "expected high-rollers" didn't score to meet reputations, our comp again highlights both how tough consistent scores are week in, week out, and the fickle nature of scoring points or not.
This round,
our points spread was a low 34 up to a high of 60 points: well done to both
Laroche (tiger_one) and Bon Vivant (Mrs tiger_one) - so extra congrats to all our above-average (ie 39 points across the entire FPL comp) scores this week in a strangely low week of scores.

Game week 13 kicks off early morning Sunday 30 November AEST, so remember to fix your teams before then.
And good luck everyone.
Finally, just as a tinsy incentive to maybe help, I will remind you that, coming up, is Sunday 30 November, the first day of Match-week 12. That day is also "International Shift Worker Day" - and what a fit that is to all of us!
Having spent all that time pre-comp just to select the best players who might perform in this fantasy arena, then all the constant juggling/swapping in all the ensuing 12 match-weeks sine, it sure can feel like we're a bit like a shift-worker!
So this week, maybe do what's needed, research etc but always take time to relax.
Then with the perhaps lesser time spent on teams, we each should just "clock-off" -then wait for the points to roll in.
The magic will happen.
The steps we take ensure it, point after point!
(Oh, if it was only that simple).
Forum H2H 25/26
Here, with this season’s H2H comp having 9 entrants, being a weekly format of mate against mate, we have 4 winners, with the other player against “ FPL average.”.
Congrats to Game week 12 winners, being
Eze does it, Bon Vivant, Laroche and
Real SoSoBad while
Slip Slot Slap defeated by FPL average.
After Game week 12, the leader board now shows more change:
In a very congested leader-board,
Laroche and
Eze does it are now co-leaders, out in front on 24 points.
Too De Ligt to Quit has dipped this week, but is still in a close-up 3rd position on 22 points
Real SoSoBad and Relegation FC are next and tied this week on 21 points.
WOW!!
And things are tight all the way down to
Delta Blues is still bringing us home on a steady 8 points.
I know it's early days but this is amazing and shows just how tight our comp is.

Game week 13 kicks off very early in the morning Sunday 30 November AEST, so remember to fix your teams before then.
And good luck everyone.
So, after the team selections, the tinkering, and then the actual games – our comps are well and truly up and running, with actually 32% of the comp down.
And while our EPL games seemingly take preference, there's the added input for some teams to also have to balance extra games in the Champions League, Europa League, Carabao Cup etc., so players will be rested, injured, carded - all the things which mystify FPL players'
The FUN (???) of a long season to come is happening.
Now..
If not too sure at any time, check any of the multitude of web resources, f/b, twitter (aka “x”) – there’s a zillion “experts” all wanting to say they know!
Choose wisely.
We just need to release our own:
