Our FPL league is off to a flier 2 weeks in and we have allready paid out €492 worth of prizes!

This week seen an insane 19+ Teams breach the 100 points in a week target to win our €100 cash prize sponsored by TQConsulting (there is a second one if anyone can do it again after Xmas)

Top points scorer for the week was Billy Hogan with his Gabi in attack squad with a massive 137 points after popping his Bench boost and Captaining Bruno.

However to win the TQConsulting spot prize you must not have used any cards so the €100 goes to Tommy Quigley with a score of 128 points.

TQConsulting isnt our Only Sponsor either we had two €50 season passes for https://fantasy-intelligence-hub.replit.app/ kindly Sponsored by its devepoper and one of our long term players Gary Dempsey this is a fantastic AI app to help you pick your teams and keep up to date with which players to keep your eye on each week.

No surprise Tzapu won one of these entries and went on to win the month and reach 786 in the world. Check it out free trials available.
