Premier Predictions (Week 15)

Straight on with week 15
8 games on Saturday and 2 on Sunday.

Arsenal v Man U looks the pick of the games with the usual Wenger v Mourinho hate fest.
Rafa returns to Chelsea where he should get a warm welcome :)
West Ham go to City with the only bright spot being that Hart can't play, might risk a quid on the world's most unlikely result? πŸ˜†

Alan Pardew and Sam Allardyce both start new jobs, both considered not good enough for the Hammers but they have been trusted to keep their new teams above us, while we have ended up with Moyes??
Bilic, Grant and Roeder should brush up their CV's for when Swansea are looking for a new boss.

Chelsea v Newcastle
Brighton v Liverpool
Everton v Huddersfield
Leicester v Burnley
Stoke v Swansea
Watford v Tottenham
WBA v Crystal Palace
Arsenal v Man Utd

Bournemouth v Southampton
Man City v West Ham

Good Luck All πŸ‘ πŸ˜‰ ⚽️

Fantasy Football Update

Fantasy Premier League: Over 5 Million players worldwide and 6 of them are in the NBTF League.
Unlike our predictions league I am doing pretty well and Paul is having a nightmare :)













Telegraph Fantasy Football
The NBTF League is still near the top of the table (a high of 5th)
Currently 14th out of about 500 leagues, good stuff.


















Richard still leading the way, although Terry sneaked in 21 teams before the deadline and is doing pretty well (all in front of my best placed team in 26th).
Although I get the feeling that a lot of the best placed sides have blown a few transfers searching for a manager of the week or month award, my tactic of only replacing injured or non playing players usually means that I have a strong run after Christmas with ¾ of my transfers left?
