Gameweek 1 Report
August 15, 2007
Hi Everyone,
Welcome to the Fantasy Premier League & specifically the Harold League contained within. Last year Harold League won the FPL's prestigous award for 'Best International League Named After a Pompus Character from Neighbours'. At the time media sources reported that the Mrs Mangle league, based in New Zealand were 'vary dusipunted' to have failed to win the award for the third year in a row.
43 teams and counting in the league, which makes it a record line-up for the Harold League
In the first week of the league 'Rivers Stockpile' put in a wonderful performance to start the league in front on 58 points, in front of 'Bold and the Beautiful' (great start for a first time league participant in Karl Quast) on 54 & 'The Fighters' on 53.
The league's average score was a very modest 36.6 points, most managers probably choosing to start the league a little conservatively & not risk their star players until they are fully fit (a part from Sir Alec, who clearly thought it would be a good idea to cut down his abundance of strikers by playing a not fully fit Wayne Rooney) seemingly having an impact on league scoring.
It would be rude to start laying into the players near the bottom in the first week of the season but consider this notice 'Figo's Army' & 'Team Larry'.
Cheers,
Ross.
