*BIG WEEKEND* *GW28* 🎈 Start of March league (just 2 GWs). 🎈 Semi-finals, Cup of Champions. 🎈 Semi-finals, UCCFFC Shield. 🎈 Last Manager Standing, Round 5. Good luck everybody. #Season24 #FPL

ON THE DOUBLE! Gary Hurley is now a two-time monthly champion, adding the February 2025 title to his January 2017 success. Congratulations πŸŽ‰. Who will win our 221st monthly league? March only has two GWs so it will be a fast sprint! Good luck to each of our 145 managers πŸ†.

Issue 857 of FANTASY FOOTBALL FRENZY is out, with Virgil van Dijk on the cover. Would he make the all-time Liverpool XI? We have a season summary, cost saving suggestions for Manchester United, the 8 seconds rule, CHATGPT and Last Manager Standing. Enjoy! #Season24 #FPL

A clearly ecstatic Alan Gibbs was presented with three CR7 bags today after winning Friday night's Leicester v Brentford 'first goal' competition. Congratulations, Alan πŸŽ‰. #Season24 #FPL @UCCstaffsports1

Issue 856 of FANTASY FOOTBALL FRENZY is out now with Salah and Mac Allister on the cover. We update 'Last Manager Standing', discuss Man Utd's possible relegation 🀣 and analyse our Manager of Season race. Also, Leicester 😬, Amorim in Europe, red cards, Isak ... and more Mo! #Season24 #FPL ⚽

Research seminar @ucc.ie tomorrow with Professor Maggie O'Neill. 'Im/mobile Lives in Turbulent Times'. All welcome. @orlalynch-ucc.bsky.social @uccresearch.bsky.social @ucclibrary.bsky.social @uccinnovation.bsky.social

Well played Ipswich πŸ‘ ... but the LAST MANAGER STANDING field is decimated! #Season24

Issue 854 of FANTASY FOOTBALL FRENZY is out! The Premier League has revealed its VAR errors and we have Round 2 of Last Manager Standing, as well as our Cup schedule. Also, the race for Champions League qualification and Ruben Amorim's rocky Old Trafford start. Enjoy πŸ‘.

If Chelsea do not win tonight, our Last Manager Standing field will be decimated πŸ˜‚. #Season24.

#OnThisDay in 2018, President of @ucc.ie, Professor Patrick O'Shea, presented the trophy for our 150th monthly competition to the victorious Frank O'Donovan of Audio Visual Services. We are currently contesting our 220th monthly league πŸ’ͺ. #Season24 #FPL

34 managers no longer standing, let down primarily by Newcastle, Ipswich and Aston Villa. #Season24 #FPL #LastManagerStanding

Judging by our current top ten, a LOT of Chips are in play this week πŸ’ͺ. #Season24 #FPL #BringItOn

Even though there is only one extra fixture, the first DGW of the season feels like a big one! Will we see a lot of Chips in play, especially TC and Assistant Manager? The deadline is 11.00. Good luck to all. #Season24 #FPL

πŸ₯Ά He clearly likes the cold weather! It is now three monthly titles for @decjordan.bsky.social in November 2018, December 2020 and January 2025 ❄️. #Season24 #FPL @officialfpl.bsky.social @ucc.ie

Our LAST MANAGER STANDING competition commences this weekend with an especially tricky set of fixtures πŸ˜‚. We predict carnage! #Season24 #FPL #SurvivalOfTheFittest πŸ’ͺ

Well done to Conor Hill, the winner of our 'First Class Honours' competition. Conor received 'The Ajax Way' by Dylan O'Connell, a Dutch national team beanie hat and a UCCFFC water bottle. Enjoy! #Season24 #FPL

Six months of the season gone and six different monthly champions. Who will be celebrating at the end of February? πŸ† #Season24 #FPL ⚽

Congratulations πŸŽ‰ to @decjordan.bsky.social, the winner of our 219th monthly league (January 2025). This is his third monthly win after earlier successes in November 2018 and December 2020. Who will win our 220th league in February? @officialfpl.bsky.social @ucc.ie @ucclibrary.bsky.social

If our colleague @hardyschwamm.bsky.social ever needs evidence that he is a data maestro then he need only point to below πŸ‘‡ second in Jan 2025 @uccstafffpl.bsky.social πŸŽ‰ And congrats @decjordan.bsky.social on winning & sympathies to @martinoconnor.bsky.social who started weekend 5th & slumped πŸ˜†

Confirmation that @decjordan.bsky.social is our January 2025 monthly champion πŸ†. Congratulations πŸŽ‰ to him & well done to the other managers in the top five. We do it all again for our 220th monthly league in February. #Season24 #FPL @ucc.bsky.social @ucclibrary.bsky.social @officialfpl.bsky.social

Issue 852 of FANTASY FOOTBALL FRENZY is out, with Dango Ouattara on the cover. We update our Cup of Champions tables and launch 'Last Manager Standing'. Also, Premier League stars from 20 years ago still playing, Myles Lewis-Skelly 😭, Timo Werner πŸ”« and Ange Postecoglou. #GoodbyeMate #FPL

Drama at Palace as Mbeumo misses a penalty but scores the retake (after encroachment). Double Palace clean sheet wiped out for @decjordan.bsky.social ... but he does have Mbeumo too 🀣. #Season24 #FPL

The January top five entering today. Damian: 2 to play. Hardy: 2 to play. Dan: 3 to play. Adam: 1 to play. Deckie: 8 to play. Who will win? #Season24 #FPL

The January monthly league is hard to call at this stage. Free Hitting Damian Butler leads the way, but Bench Boosting @decjordan.bsky.social still has a staggering eight players to come! #Season24 #FPL

Congratulations πŸŽ‰ to Conor Hill who has won our FIRST CLASS HONOURS competition. His prizes are 'The Ajax Way' by Dylan O'Connell, a Dutch national team beanie & a UCCFFC water bottle. As the gallant runner-up, Karol Coleman has to be content with a big bar of Toblerone! #Season24 #FPL

The best of luck to Karol Coleman and Conor Hill who contest the tie-breaker round of our FIRST CLASS HONOURS competition this weekend. It should be decided at the Etihad Stadium 🏟️. #Season24 #FPL

πŸ”Š MASSIVE GW23 in store πŸ”Š With attractive fixtures, high scores are anticipated as we conclude the January league and see who progresses in the Cup of Champions πŸ† and UCCFFC Shield πŸ›‘οΈ. Good luck to our 145 managers. #Season24 #FPL ⚽

What a finish is in store next weekend to our 219th monthly league. It will be a blockbuster! πŸŽ‰ #Season24 #FPL πŸ†

10 monthly champions for the calendar year 2024 πŸ†. #Season24 #FPL

Even though #GW22 is not complete, we have a new leader in Conor Quinlan. Conor was the world number 29 in 2015/16 and finished as runner-up in our league last season! #Season24 #FPL @officialfpl.bsky.social

For our remaining 12 students, these are the 25 Third Year propositions. All relate to matches on Tuesday and Wednesday. The entry deadline is 3.00pm on Tuesday. #Season24 πŸ§‘β€πŸŽ“

Issue 851 of FANTASY FOOTBALL FRENZY is out as we pay tribute to Denis Law - Rest in Peace. Our Chairman reports from Emirates Stadium, we highlight the FPL points race and pose 25 questions in our First Class Honours comp. Also, Kluivert, Diallo, Haaland, Saliba and Everton. #Season24 #FPL ⚽

Super defensive performance in #GW22 by monthly league leader, @decjordan.bsky.social. #Season24 #FPL

Not much action from our managers in #GW22. Two Wildcards (Donal Shiels & Alan Gibbs) and two Bench Boosts (Damian Butler & Dan Murphy). Salah is the dominant captain (46.9%), followed by Isak (17.9%) & Palmer (15.2%). Good luck to everyone. #Season24 #FPL

Our #Season24 monthly champions to date. August - Daire McSweeney September - Stephen Power October - Mark James November - PΓ‘draic Morrissey December - Ger Clarke Who will triumph in January? #FPL

We're delighted to be on this new platform. Hoping for lots of follows from the FPL community. Currently at the halfway point of our 219th monthly league (January 2025) with @decjordan.bsky.social leading the way! #Season24 #FPL
