About this listen

After another poor game week, there is pressure on Matt and his FPL team as some incorrect 50/50 decisions seems him slide further down the league tables. One of his new years' resolutions has to be to stop benching his better players. Nick on the other hand is riding the crest of a wave and benefited from his accidental wildcard.Looking forward, it's now or never for Matt's bench boost as the brothers talk about their plans for game weeks 18 and 19. Nick, conversely, is looking to remove Brentford's Igor Thiago whose form has been very disappointing of late.Matt and Nick finish the show with by reviewing their Fantasy WSL season so far. Thankfully for Matt, he is doing much better in this game with him and Nick both serving their Women's Super League apprenticeship this year.There's also random tangental chat about school sports days and the "oh my god" particle.Join the conversation via any, or all, of the following platforms...InstagramYouTubeTik-TokBlue Sky X (mainly known as Twitter)And when it comes to Fantasy leagues and codes, you can play FPL against us via the code BN59SG.
