I will be pleased when this preseason is done if I’m honest. Every day there are more announcements of new players resulting in us having to go back to the drawing board. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a super exciting time but it’s also complicated all the same. I hope this shorter article helps withContinue reading “FPL Mariner musing’s: Forwards”

FINAL UPDATE – FPL Season 20/21 Team Selection – Dhillon’s 11
On the 2nd of September I published my first team selection article which was met with a lot of enthusiasm and I got a lot of feedback.

FPL Poker Tables GW1

Using my data which all of you wouldContinue reading “FPLMariner Musings : Goalkeepers”
2019-20 season review of my spreadsheet’s rolling 8GW data

Content Creation – My Journey!
Just over a year ago, completely disillusioned with my Twitter feed, with it being wall to wall with political angst and general disquiet about the world, I mulled switching my existing Twitter account off! It simply stopped being enjoyable. Life was tough enough and Twitter was no longer what I had envisioned it to beContinue reading “Content Creation – My Journey!”
