On his way the White Hart Lane as we speak

Unexpected even

Another inexpected gift of #worldbookday I have just got to see Ruth Bader Ginsberg boxing a unicorn.

Been away most of the season come back and find high brow stuff like this to do.

I have completed, hope the research goes well.

Made one, but team is not ideal this week. Really like the big at the back, I have been winging it, though always struggle when it comes to playing chips.
Didn't think I would make it back to the top 10 for a while, so just happy with that

Very strong team there, Stach injury is a tough one, like you I have had to keep just not sure what to do with it.

The highlight for my two was the hot dog pre game.

They have refused to go ever since

I tried, but when his first game was v Bristol City, memorial to JB and a boring 0-0 for 88 minutes and then they score it set my campaign back many years

Desperate times. 9 year old son is an Arsenal fan.

He has asked to see Arsenal play for his birthday.

Can anyone in FPL world suggest best way to do it?

As a lowly Millwall fan I am very out of the loop on Premier League tickets.

Could just be me then

Is it really football if you aren't relying on an overseas injury prone striker to save your season?

Wing and a prayer for the 3rd go at #fpl30m hosted by the great @fpl-gills.bsky.social here's hoping to go better than just top 3.
Good luck all

Best part of the season for a Millwall Fan, fully optimistic, everything is possible, promotion push likely and hopes of an opening day victory.

Roll on 5.45 when all that can be put to bed.

Not at all, you were one of the first podcasts that was essential for me, would have been 6 or so years ago. I was still living near Thamesmead.
Hope you have a good season when it arrives.

@trig-talks-fpl.bsky.social and @planetfplpod.bsky.social always worth a listen.

Though I am also tempted to give @gaffr.bsky.social a go this year and if so I would need to learn how to play it.

Had a few weeks of FPL free living. Thinking I should probably my start listening to stuff again.
What have I missed?

Great thanks Sertalp. Amazing stuff. Hope you and your family are having a good summer.
Hoping to apply some of the learning to try last man standing as a trial run.
As ever thanks for all you do.

Dam knew I would miss it, been on a football and social media check out. I will have a look on discord but is it possible to read through and self teach using the information on discord?

@22grandpod.bsky.social hello mate. Went looking for scripts etc today, no luck yet. Will try again, I did though find boxes of CDs promos etc from random 00s bands incase helpful. Taking a few home for a listen, covers stuff from Blur through to The Chalets most seems from 04-07

I think with moving more to playing analytically and looking at models it is interesting how many routes actually open up to you. Not just by changing things like risk appetite and minutes estimates but how some of the biggest gains can be in backing your judgement if the model disagrees.

And that just 4 years after Amersham Arms where I first experienced Art Brut and she was not even on the horizon yet.

Just 12 years ago today @eddieargos.bsky.social and #ArtBrut at Scala, with then girlfriend. I cannot say it is the reason she went on to be my wife, but I am sure it played a huge part

Thanks for the shout out, but I have zero chance of catching. Got closer than I thought and Craig has had an immense season and his chips ready to go.

Have a good week!

Hope so have blown my TC on him.
Have a good week Nick.

Sertalp you have totally changed the way I play FPL and even looking at how analytics could work in my job. The pod ending feels like a huge loss. The discord, the site, the pod are all essentials for me and your time and effort are hugely appreciated

Sorry to hear that Sertalp, hope you are ok. There are bigger things in life but this is still frustrating.
Go well and hope you cruise through the rest of the season.

And thanks for keeping the league going. Has been really enjoyable again

Incredible season from Craig, consistently so strong

Have free hit so big gambles on just a couple of teams.
But puts me out of chips, so just got to hope. How about you?
Just need to cling on for 3rd now.
