What counts as A GOOD SCORE?

A snowy mountain peak, against a dazzling blue sky - a distant pinnacle to dream of

Season high scores from the global frontrunners can swing up and down a fair amount - so you might have to adjust your expectations according to the average returns in a given year..

Weekly high scores can vary HUGELY, and unpredictably - so, setting one arbitrary target there is pretty meaningless

I hope to be 10-15 points better than the global average every week.


And when I launched this blog, I stated that my ultimate goal is always to reach 2,500 points for the season.


Now, these days, you're probably going to need well over 2,600, or even 2,700 points - some years, perhaps, even above 2,800 points - to have a chance of being the Global Champion. But that's pie-in-the-sky stuff - not worth thinking about.


2,500 points usually represents the top 1% or so of participants, and is a massive pinnacle to climb!


2,300 points is a very, very good score - and if you can consistently achieve above that for a number of years... I would say you've arrived as a more-than-competent FPL manager.


2,100 points is fairly respectable - and would in fact be an outstanding debut season score for someone new to the game.

If you are a complete newbie, you should be reasonably happy with 1,800 or 1,900 points in your first season - that should put you at least a little above the global average.


Always striving to be better-than-the-average is a very good place to start in this game. Then, as you get better, you can gradually ramp up your expectations of how much better-than-the-average you can be!

It ain't FAIR!

  It is a recurring problem in big knockout tournaments like the current World Clup Cup that the Fantasy games based on them have never give...
