FPL_Hoodini Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 So, we all have had those moments in FPL when we have pulled off a transfer or two that have paid off significantly. Does anyone have any stories to tell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPL_Fairy Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 One season I went 8 gameweeks without making a single transfer and I had green arrows every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPL Socialist Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Usually slugging it out with a mate for which of us (usually me!!!) wins the mini-league we're in. A couple of seasons ago persuaded him to do a "you show me mine..." team reveal a few days before the deadline. Got a good idea of which premiums he was set on. Imagine his delight when I then showed him my team, which was still the auto-pick one 🙃 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPL Courtney Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I TC Bamford v Wolves and Southampton in I think it was 20/21 season and everyone laughed after the Wolves games cause he didn’t get anything forgetting there was still 1 more game to play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple Crown FPL Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Twas 17-18 season I think I was 4th in a work Mini-league.... all hope was lost In the latter GWs of that Season, Man City had a DGW. I Triple Captained Aguero, he had 3+ returns across the DGW. This propelled me to the top of the mini-league, I held on for a most famous victory I still remind those losers about that Triple Captain awesomeness 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPL_Hoodini Posted March 20 Author Share Posted March 20 My story goes back to the 22/23 season when Son wasn't scoring for Spurs. As above, I was competing in my mini league. I was at work saying how I was going to bring in Son. I said he was overdue a goal and he is bound to score because he has gone around 6-7 weeks without a goal. My mate at work laughed at me. This was the week when I used my Free Hit. So the gameweek deadline comes and goes, only to find out Son was benched when the team sheets are released. Sigh! I look at my phone and there was no sign of him being brought on until mid way through the 2nd half. Yay I thought, 1 point! Then a few minutes later my phone pings, Son scores, a few minutes after that another ping, Son got a 2nd goal, and yes a few minutes later Son scored his 3rd goal!!! I was bouncing and I went into work on Monday reminding everyone. And of course....I never brought Son in my team again all season after that and I bagged his 19 points.

FPL_Owl82 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 I have had a few over the years and perhaps I did not recognise at the time how significant they were until finding a community like this. One of my most recent ones that I had last season was where I owned Ben White from Arsenal before he was as popular as he is now. He got subbed off in the 2nd half and I bagged his clean sheet. Of course, my mini league rival (work colleague) had another Arsenal defender that did not keep his clean sheet bonus. 🤣 It is the little things that make the difference lolololol..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
