The Gaffer Tapes: Fantasy Football Comedy Podcast

After an unscheduled break, the two most attractive and masculine of the gaffers are back to review a big scoring Gameweek 10, answer your questions and give you tips for the upcoming week of fantasy football. Plus, joining us live from up a tree in a Canadian forest somewhere: special guest Dominic Monaghan.

The Gaffers return in an attempt to put a positive spin on an incredibly underwhelming GW8. We talk about the little players that scored big points and the big players that scored minus points. There’s the usual social media questions, upcoming game-week preview and award nominated quiz, as well as one of the most heated debates since Hillary and Trump last went at it.

As the International break limps to a close, Tom, Ash & Craig get back to business, mulling over their #FPL futures and celebrating a second consecutive nomination for Best UK Football Podcast. Aguero going yellow causes global panic, manager of the month for September is announced and one lucky listener gets branded a Nazi. 

The Gaffers are back and it seems that everyone’s had a good Fantasy Football week as green arrows are the talk of the town. We ponder who to pick from in form Liverpool, and how you should probably just avoid West Ham players altogether, unless you fancy a beer. We answer the usual social media questions, try to keep our exceptional run of tips going… and Tom has problems keeping up with the conversation as he hasn’t brushed his ears. Seriously.

Game week 5 is over and ‘Wildcarding’ is the talk of the town. The Gaffers talk through a few options for your new look team and answer your questions which range from whether Aguero should return, to which player you’d like to bathe. Little Dommy Monaghan has some more inquisitive gems and Tom proves that sometimes a good quiz name doesn’t make for a good quiz.

Aguero might be taking a break but Tom, Ash & Craig aren’t as The Gaffer Tapes returns for another week of FPL news, tips and made up proverbs. With Lukaku’s hat trick saving some people’s week, the Gaffers talk striker options for the coming weeks and see what a low scoring gameweek has done to the top 10. They mispronounce some names in Tweets for my Tweet, get a voicemail from Dom Monaghan in a monastery and read your increasingly bizarre emails. Tom plucks another classic quiz from the archives and the guys make their picks for gameweek 5. 

Due to their growing success and international popularity, the Gaffers now refuse to be in the same room as each other. But thanks to modern technology (and Tom’s typewriter) the three lads are here to review the last game-week, answer the eternal question of Zlatan or Aguero… or neither, plus there’s a lot of talk about wildcards and even more about pizzas and Megan Fox.

The 2016/17 season starts with a bang (kind of). The Gaffers are here to review the opening game-week, point out where you all went wrong and persuade you that no matter how bad it was; you don’t need to wildcard yet! There’s the usual social media questions, the first round in Tom’s big quiz and we give you some more genuinely decent tips for the forthcoming weeks. Who would have thought?

The Gaffers are back for another pre-season podcast and this time the FPL site is actually live! There’s no more wild speculation, just hard stats and facts… and nob gags. We take an unusually professional and in depth look at who is over and under-priced, we answer your questions on more than just Twitter, we reveal some of our incredible prizes that could be yours in the 2016/17 season and we drop the PIN to the most competitive fantasy premier league out there. Boom. There’s also a wolf and some cheese. 

The Gaffers are back for a pre-season podcast, recorded just before the FPL site (finally) went live… textbook. Hear the speculation, witness the guesswork, experience the not-really-knowing-what-the-hell-is-going-on. No changes there then. Tom also dons the Quiz Wizard’s Cloak and we have not 1, not 2, not 4: but THREE special announcements.
