Written by @NiallHawthorne Yet another international break draws to a close and we can all get back to the real business of FPL, free from these ridiculous breaks to our fantasy football rhythm for…wait, what?…another one in four weeks’ time? Oh for the love of all that is holy, sweet, divine, innocent and pure. All […]

Fantasy Football Gameweek 7: Chelsea, Leeds and Watford?
Oct 1
Written by @NiallHawthorne I’ve been amused this week by the contrast between Britain and Ireland in relation to the supposed ‘post-pandemic new normal’. In Ireland they were told they’re likely to get a new Bank Holiday as a thank you to front-line workers, and the Irish people in general, for their fortitude throughout the crisis. […]

They say a week is a long time in politics…. Well, in football, an international break is an eternity. Not only have we been forced to wait a full fortnight for the return of Premier League action, we’ve also been left with a Wildcard burning a hole in all our pockets (unless you pulled the […]
Fantasy Football – Gameweek 3: Manchester United, West Ham and Leicester?
Aug 27
Always at this point of a new FPL season we see proclamations that what we’ve witnessed in GW1 and GW2 is a sure sign of things to come. The die has been cast, the future is set, and nothing will change. With that in mind I’d like to congratulate West Ham on winning the Premier […]

Written by Mr. @NiallHawthorne Well that was a nice dull start to the new season, eh? 34 goals, 14 players with double digit hauls and if you had neither Bruno nor Salah, your season is over before it has begun. What larks! Onto GW2! Defender: Oleksandr Zinchenko, Manchester City I can’t tip TAA again, […]

Preview Written by Mr @NiallHawthorne Well Hello…. Nice to see you again. Yes, you. You’re looking splendid. New #FPL accounts may come along with ChattySnaps and Tok-Tiks and Instabook Spaces or whatever, but here at FantasyYIRMA towers, we keep it old school. We’re always here (this is the 135th season in a row providing FPL […]
Gameweek 36 Preview: Liverpool, Spurs and Southampton?
May 14
We approach the end of the strangest season in living memory. A season without fans. A season without any real drama. A season without any classic matches that spring to mind. Relegation has been confirmed for all three teams at the earliest point in a Premier League season ever. Manchester City were confirmed champions when […]
Fantasy Football: Triple Gameweek for Manchester United!!
May 6
Written by @Niallhawthorne I’ve worked it out. We’re living in some form of The Matrix or The Truman Show. There’s no other explanation for this past season, this past fourteen months and particularly this past week. The biggest game in English football cancelled by fans doing bicycle kicks into the Stretford End. Gary Neville and […]
Fantasy Football Preview: Gameweek 32 – Spurs With The Double
Apr 16
GW32 has now evolved into the perfect antithesis of the FPL game we know and love, while simultaneously being the perfect reflection of what this god-forsaken football season has been like. We start on Friday night, end next Thursday night, have games every night of the week in between and by the time it ends, […]

There has been a lot of talk about NFT fantasy platform Sorare in the FPL community lately and I wanted to provide an article to talk about what the game is, what it is not, and how to get started. I am writing a Daily newsletter about this, and you can subscribe or sign-up for […]
