FPL - WINNER TAKES ALL - 2024/25 (Money Leagues)

This will be the twentieth year I have run an online mini-league on the Premier Leagues own fantasy football game.

Quite simply - register online, select your team and then if you wish join one or both of my mini leagues.

website address: Fantasy Premier League (FPL)

My Classic League is £15 (£10 + £5) total to enter. This is because of the Cup competition FPL introduced a several seasons ago in Classic Scoring Leagues. So, the extra £5 entry per team is to make the prize for the Cup winner.

However, there is no Cup competition in The Head-to-Head league so it is just £10 to enter.

The first league is what’s known as a ‘classic’ style league - where we are all in a league together and your total fantasy points scored decides your position in the league and at the end of the season whoever is top takes home the number of entrants in the league x £10… hence the league name being: WINNER TAKES ALL & the eventual winner of the new Cup competition will bank the number of teams in the league x £5.

I RESTARTED my Classic league this season as FPL gave me the option to do so - which means anyone who played in it last year will automatically be added to my league this season if they do a team on the new FPL website so as I cannot be sure everyone will want to play for money in my classic WTA league again this season I will delete any unpaid for teams once the season starts. So, if you do want to play in this league this season make sure to pay your entry fee(s) before the season kicks off. If you’re new to my FPL leagues or did not play in my leagues last year these are the codes:

Classic

Name of this league: WINNER TAKES ALL entry fee - £15

Code to join this league:

The other league I run is a ‘head to head’ style league where you are matched with another opponent in the league each week of the season and your weekly score versus the person you’re playing decides whether you win, lose or draw and like in the real Premier League you get 3 points a win, 1 point a draw and nothing for a loss. Those points decide your place within the league and with this league whomever is top of the league at the end of the season wins all the money (as the head-to-head league does not have a cup competition and I have chosen to have no knock out rounds).

Head-to-Head

Name of this league: HEAD 2 HEAD - W.T.A. entry fee - £10

Code to join this league:

So, in both leagues it works like this - 1st place at the end of the season takes all the £10 wonga (so # of teams x £10 = prize).

But also, in the Classic league the extra £5 entry fee goes to make up the internal Cup prize. (so # of teams x £5 = cup prize).

The more teams, the more prize money on offer - so go recruit your friends (but not if there any good)!

FPL lets you join many leagues but you can only have one team and that team is in however many leagues you join - so it’s no more time consuming to join multiple leagues. So, if you’re doing this game already think about joining one or both of my money leagues - after all it’s only a few quid and you may win a nice prize for your season’s efforts… always more fun when there’s money on it - don’t you think?

You can play in these leagues from anywhere in the world and everyone is welcome. However I seem to get brand new names every season join and no contact is made to pay so from now on anyone who has not paid the entry fee in the Classic league will be deleted during Gameweek one and in the Head to Head league I will have a cull on the first day of the season before first deadline is reached and remove any unpaid for teams. So, if you truly want in to these money leagues make sure you pay before the season starts.

If you’re new to my games and don’t know how to pay me or simply forgotten just e-mail me, PM me from here (TFP forum) or hit me up on my Discord channel Discord / BLM fantasy games and I’ll send you the info. upon request.

PS - I keep winners history records for all fantasy games I run so thought you might like to see the history for my FPL money leagues (perhaps your name can appear here at the end of this coming season):

FPL - WINNER TAKES ALL - League History

UPDATE - FPL (Winner Takes All) Head to Head league

I am sorry to be so late doing this but 3 or so weeks ago my PC refused to boot into windows and no matter what I did could not get it to work - I think my hard drive failed. I had to buy a new lap top as my notebook was so old (OS was XP) it would not work with the modern internet and kept freezing up plus any web pages took forever to load - just completely unuseable!

I tried to manage these FPL leagues from the Premier League app but it did not offer me the admin options the website does and I was unable to delete the unpaid for teams as planned from the Head to Head league before the season started. So alas we have a couple of interlopers this season squewing the Head to Head league. As a code had to be entered to join the Head to Head league the following two unpaid entrants (screen shotted below) can not win the cash prize pot and will be added to my Welchers Blacklist here:

I have bought a new lap top to be able to continue running my games and am doing my best to catch up on all games admin.

PRIZE CONFORMATIONS

After removing the non-paid for teams from my ‘FPL WTA Classic’ league we were left with 42 paid up entrants. So that makes the prizes for the 2024/25 season as follows:

This is my biggest ever entry pool in my ‘Winner Takes All’ Classic FPL league!


In my ‘FPL WTA Head to Head’ league I got 29 paid entries and two welchers - 五条 悟 and Bernard Amoah (teams shown in previous post above) - who I was unable to delete before season had started due to my PC issues mentioned above in previous post. So the H2H prize for the 2024/25 season is:

I believe this is also my biggest ever entry pool in my ‘Winner Takes All’ Head to Head FPL league!


Have fun & may the best fantasy managers win!
