TiBB 2024/25 Premier League Fantasy Football

[James]

The TiBB FPL league for the 2024/25 season has been renewed at https://fantasy.premierleague.com. You might already be in it if you played last season.

I've posted the invite link to the TIBB League 2024/25 in a Private forum here - https://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forums/showpost.php?p=11493154&postcount=3091

The new Premier League season starts on Saturday - 17th August.

What is Fantasy Premier League...


How to register

To play Fantasy Premier League for the first time, you must register on the FPL site.

Head over to https://fantasy.premierleague.com to register your account by submitting an email address, setting up a password and then confirming your email address.

Once you have set up your account and chosen a team name you are ready to start playing.


How to play

FPL is a game that casts you in the role of a Fantasy manager of Premier League players.

You must pick a squad of 15 players from the 2022/23 Premier League, who score points for your team based on their performances for their clubs in PL matches.

Prices are given to players based on the number of FPL points they are projected to deliver and you are limited to a budget of £100.0m for your 15-man squad.


How are points awarded?

Points are awarded to players for goals, assists, saves and clean sheets.

Players can also earn additional bonus points in Fantasy as a reward for a good performance in a match (see the Bonus Points System for more).

Your team's points for the match round or "Gameweek" will be scored by your starting XI. But if a starting player does not feature for their club in that round of matches, the points scored by the first player on your bench will automatically be counted instead.

The same process occurs if two or three starting players fail to appear.

You can also earn extra points by selecting a captain from your starting line-up. The captain's points are doubled in that Gameweek.

£5.0m last season… £10.5m this time around.

It’s the biggest starting price rise in FPL history as Cole Palmer enters the premium pool following his 244-point campaign in 2023/24.

[bots]

like for like, palmer will probably play every game he is fit for. Haaland won't. 15m is pricing him out of the options

[Crimson Dynamo]

Official FPL have announced some BIG changes for 2024/25, including...

💥 Bank up to FIVE free transfers
💥 Keep your transfers after playing a chip
💥 Mystery chip
💥 New look pitch design
💥 10 points if your GK scores a goal

[Crimson Dynamo]

Game has now launched and we already has 5 teams in the Tibb league

You have 6 now.

Deadline at 6.30 folks

Bloody hard to pick a week 1 team this year

[bots]

Teams are apparently being announced 15 minutes earlier this season, so the shutoff will happen earlier every game week compared to last season

[Beso]

Thanks bots..I need that for my cunning plan to work.:smug:

Ooops..I forgot I had a plan when I started tweaking things today.

[Beso]

Good luck everyone.

Let's hope it stays close.

[MTVN]

Here we go again

I've managed to get Salah and Haaland but my defence is budget as hell. Made a very late switch from Trent to Quansah and a 4.5 lad to Eze

[bots]

i've given my squad a little refresh, going for some young talent this season

[James]

I missed the deadline, so just went with the auto-selected team. :laugh:

The line-up doesn't look too bad.

[Beso]

I was going to go with 3 liverpool midfielders for the first two games, Salah, Diaz and jota..then transfer harland in for havertz in week 2 with the 7million I had left in the tank. I've had a feeling about Longstaff as well all week, but transfered him out today as well. I had brighton and Fulham defence, with trent. Was going to flip flop the 2 brighton and Fulham each week, that went out the window today as well..I've messed up, and left my bench really really bare now..

Deadline should have been last night.

Seemed a good week to play the free chip with city, spurs, liverpool and fulham all having easy looking ties. Only city are away.

I can use my permanent transfer for a double week and save my transfers (5 max) for the next double week.


If its rubbish teams I wont even bother changing anything. My plan is to have you all playing catch up by then.:smug:

Haaland doesn't let me down

[MTVN]

Fair play LT good use of the chip

[bots]

if you are changing your captain, i recommend checking it the next day to make sure it updated. I got caught by this in week 1 and i've since heard it's a bug that has happened to others

I dont think you can change captain after the first game kicks off. If that's what you mean?

No, i mean in between game weeks, if you change your captain, there is a bug where if you go back and check it, the change in captain hasn't registered

I'm going to use my wildcard to change my team this week. I've gave it 3 trial runs so far. All look amazing for the coming weeks.

[Beso]

This game has been a rag doll to a bull for me ever since I joined 2 years ago. I get so bored through the week trudging to work, then trudging back to eat and sleep after flicking the same routine on my phone at night(TIBB, FANTASY FOOTBALL,YOUTUBE)

last year i must have made about 80 transfers, or more. For the whole season.

Well, I just got a wee bit bored just now after coming back from the golf and more worthy of a mention! The pints afterwards. So I've played my wild 2nd wild card..(the 2 big ones gone)

But, well I reckon I will be too far ahead this time after a few weeks that i can make as many subs as I want.


Dont mind sharing either.

Erling Haaland might miss Manchester City’s match against Brentford as he has
been granted compassionate leave following the death of a close family friend.
He was seen training on Thursday but could decide to sit out. Haaland has paid
tribute to Ivar Eggja, who was like an uncle to him.

[bots]

From gameweek 24 of the Fantasy Premier League season (1 February 2025), managers have the option to play the Assistant Manager chip.

It's new, might be a bit confusing and you need to plan ahead for it.

Don't panic! We're here to help you and have come up with five of the best options for activating the chip.

When you activate the chip, you bring a Premier League manager into your squad for three weeks and his team's results will earn FPL points for you.

How does the assistant manager score points?

His team wins = 6 points

His team draws = 3 points

His team scores a goal = 1 point per goal

His team keeps a clean sheet = 2 points

Table bonus = 10 extra points for a win, or five extra points for a draw, if the manager faces a club ranked at least five places higher in the table (at the start of the gameweek)

What will the assistant manager cost?

Prices have yet to be revealed but managers will cost between £0.5m and £1.5m and, importantly, that has to come out of your existing budget. So forward planning is needed.

Does the assistant manager count towards my quota of three players from any club?

Yes. Sorry.

What else do I need to know about the Assistant Manager chip?
There are three key things to consider when planning for the chip, aside from making sure you have some spare cash.

Playing other chips

Firstly, when the chip is active, you can't play any other chips. So think about when you might want to use Triple Captain and make sure you have a rough plan for using your wildcard.

Wildcarding in the weeks before you play the Assistant Manager chip could be a good plan.

Transferring managers

Secondly, playing the chip does not cost a transfer but you can change your assistant manager within the three-week period, which costs a transfer as if you were buying a player.

So that's a chance to get cute if you like and chase maximum upside with juicy fixtures.

Top managers have less upside

Because of the table bonus, it doesn't necessarily pay best to pick the manager of a title-chasing side.

Mikel Arteta, Arne Slot and Enzo Maresca have a best three-week score of 32 points or fewer this season. But Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola leads the way with a 47-point total, thanks to wins over Arsenal and Manchester City.

Of course, predicting those wins is the hard thing!

So do you play it safe or go for glory?

[Crimson Dynamo]

Its being called The Ass Man chip
