Don't Get Fancy

We drafted our Don’t Get Fancy team for CWC Fantasy — the squad we’ll be entering into the mini-leagues.

But of course, we had to spice things up. We asked for your house rule suggestions, threw them into the wheel and spun it.

Our best finish yet — Top 20k. GW38 heartbreak, our favorite hauls, captaincy highs, punts, and the regrets that still sting. Each of us shares one key lesson we’re carrying into next season. And to close it out: Don’t Get Fancy x FPL Jacob are co-hosting a Club World Cup Fantasy mini league.

As the curtain falls on this FPL season, we look back at a wild GW37 — what worked, what didn't and our very own hindsight captain.

We preview GW38 fixtures and differentials, can we finish the season with greens all around and a Top 10K finish?

Our first ever episode and we're not sure how this happened either.

One of us is sitting inches away from the Top 10K, a couple of us are chasing, and nobody's quite sure who to captain.

We talk a bit about ourselves, look back at GW36, and make plans for what's next.
