"Death, taxes and leaving your best players on the bench..."

from The Bridge Brothers Presents...

In a role reversal, Matt has had a good week in FPL with Nick unusually not meeting the high standards that he has set himself. Will things change in game week 25?The chaps discuss goal-keeper choices, a West Ham revival and whether the Black Cats of Sunderland are largely fixture-proof when it comes to Fantasy Premier League.Matt's good fantasy football week continued in that he is now top of the Bridge Brothers' mini-est of mini-leagues, (you can find out how to compete against us below). He would have possibly beaten Nick's better score this week had he not benched Olivia Godfrey's 11 points. To refer to Oscar Wilde, the consistencies in life are: "death, taxes and Matt leaving his better performing players on the bench."As ever, the game week deadlines for FPL and FWSL are included below, as well as the joining codes for our mini-leagues. Could you stop Matt winning their FWSL league?FWSL: Game Week 15: Saturday the 7th of February at 11:00. FKWAXXFPL: Game week 23: Friday the 6th of February at 18:30.
