Six green arrows from GW30-38 saw me finish on 130k. I'm disappointed to be outside the top 100k, but happy with the finish and my win in the mini-league I care most about.
I'll try and take some lessons from this season. I was too slow to move away from Haaland, and missed some gems like Bowen.

Cracking week in FPL: I captained Wood and brought in MGW instead of Elanga. I can feel the big red arrow hovering over my head like the sword of Damacles. #FPL

Anyone who had Moyes, Emery and then Glasner for their AM in the last three GWs reaped 56 points. If you get it right this chip is a POWERHOUSE. Obviously, I had Slot for most of this run. #FPL

In 24 hours my plans went from TC Salah, Gordon -> Mbeumo & Mateta -> Gakpo to AM Slot, Raya -> Pickford & Wood -> Wissa. #FPL is bonkers.

When we have Hall, Robinson, Muoz and the lads from Forest then do we need premium defenders? Gabriel, Saliba and Trent aren't really justifying their prices. #FPL

In GW18 Anthony Gordon (10 points) came out top in the Saka replacement battle over Bruno, Son, Odegaard, Martinelli, Foden, Diaz and Jota who all scored 3 points or less. Gordon is nailed, playing for an attacking side and faces Wolves and Southampton in the next 5 matches. #FPL

Thanks Matheus. Wolves might be struggling, but you've been a great FPL asset for me. I appreciate the goodbye present of the haul against Man Utd. #FPL

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope the day is bringing you the lovely food, drink and family moments you wished for.
Me, I'm just counting the seconds until I can switch away from migraine-inducing Alvin and the Chipmunks episodes my son insists on viewing.

Goodbye RAN, hello Robinson.
The Wolves man gave me a paltry 17 points over 8 GWs. I'd have been better off with Ashley Young, unlikely as that seemed at the start of the season. #FPL

If Everton vs Liverpool is cancelled then I'm very happy I kept hold of my TC chip.

Yesterday Newcastle registered 0.02 xG against Palace. In its own way that's impressive. A single shot on target in the final third should surpass that.

Spurs are one of the most attacking sides in the league, but who will give points in #FPL? Today it's Maddison, but Solanke and Johnson were the stars in other GWs.

Is it just me or does Bluesky feel more friendly than X?
If all the civil people have migrated I dread to think what X is like now.

When I make transfers I get a red flag. When my team doesn't change I get a red flag. What to do? #FPLquandries

There's always something so cute about my son's little legs in his Hearts socks for his weekly football class.

Bluesky is encouraging me to like posts to train the algorithm. Should I pretend to be erudite and go for the latest post-modern interpretations of Shakespeare, or be honest and look for cat memes?

I'm curious to try out Bluesky. Fingers crossed that it doesn't start well and then become another X.
