On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Burnley fan Jack Toner and Nottingham Forest fan Mark Sutherns to discuss the latest at their clubs ahead of Sunday's final day meeting at Turf Moor.

On the weekend Review of Gameweek 37 Suj and James discuss all the games from the weekend which included confirmation of Burnley's relegation and Luton Town will almost certainly be joining them; while Manchester City and Arsenal both won to nil to confirm that the title race will go to the final day, but how James' Tottenham do against City tomorrow is likely to be decisive. But do Tottenham even want to win!? Bench Boosters have ...

There's ...

On the Sky Fantasy Football Podcast Suj and James preview the penultimate week of the season for Sky Fantasy and it was further disaster for Suj on the weekend and James, who is now out of transfers, has a unique suggestion of what (not) to do with Suj's remaining 4 transfers. On the Pod, why injury news on Bruno Fernandes may present those with transfers left with the opportunity to invest in some great differentials on Sunday, th...

Suj and James discuss another dramatic week in FPL where the top 10k average hit 100 and James exceeded that to enter into the top 100k but for Suj, the less said the better! All the games reviewed as usual which included Suj and James teams getting slapped respectively and conceding a combined 9 at Stamford Bridge and Anfield. And Manchester United didn't want to be left out as they crumbled to a 4-0 loss at Crystal Palace last ni...

James is joined by Leicester City correspondent Aaron Lagor following the Foxes crowning as Championship Champions that means they will be making an immediate return to the Premier League under the stewardship of Enzo Maresca. There's discussion on how The Foxes did it, Maresca's philosophy and tactics which naturally has parallels with that of Pep Guardiola, whom Maresca was previously assistant to at Manchester City. There's an o...

Plus, there's chat on captaincy for the weekend, the latest on Ederson's injury concerns, defensive assets for Bench Boosters and much more. Tomorrow on Planet FPL: The Fan...

Suj and James discuss all the latest talking points for Sky Fantasy Football and this weekend provides the opportunity for some unlikely differential captaincy options with Erling Haaland and Mo Salah both lower owned than we would normally expect at this stage of the season.

Clayton joins James for a discussion on the state of refereeing in the Premier League and what can be to do improve standards the many believe have hit an all time low. But is it really that bad? What does good refereeing look like? What do we as fans actually want most, is it accuracy or is it something else? There's discussion on if VAR has actually hindered the quality of our referees and what fans actually want from the use of ...

Suj and James review the weekend of Gameweek 35 and for many Wildcarders it wasn't the success that many had hoped for (so far), particularly with Arsenal's Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka returning well in Arsenal's North London Derby victory that has left James with a sore throat. And it was a strange game that features in the discussion from all the games. As usual all the games covered including Chelsea's excellent display at Villa...

Suj and James review the 6 games played in midweek as Arsenal and Manchester City went big in their pursuit of the title but Liverpool's attempt to keep pace hits the skids in the Merseyside Derby at Everton. Now focus turns from Free Hit 34 to Wildcard 35 with Suj (probably) and James both on Wildcard. On the Podcast there's a big lean in the discussion to covering FPL assets from the teams who played in midweek which features 5 o...

On Clash of the Correspondents it's a focus on the only two teams who double in Gameweek 35 as James is joined by Chelsea fan Gary Mantle and Tottenham fan Ricky Saunders to discuss the latest at their clubs and talk about the best FPL assets from each club with many Wildcarders this week look to load up with 3 from each ahead of their two double gameweeks in 35 and 37. But neither are in good form! A Chelsea without Cole Palmer we...

Suj rejoins James for the Sky Fantasy Football Podcast ahead of another big night of moves where differentials will be purchased - but will they actually be differentials? Manchester United and Newcastle assets could become popular quickly and James reveals the 3 he intends to buy, it's only 3 as there was a stroke of luck when forced into a move on Sunday and one more needs to be saved for Manchester City tomorrow. But will Suj ac...

On the first of two Clash of the Correspondents this week James is joined by Brighton fan Sam Murray and Manchester City fan Jonny Pringle to discuss the latest at their clubs and the FPL assets of interest ahead of Thursday's meeting between the two clubs.

On the weekend review of DGW34 Suj returns to join James to discuss the 7 games played so far and for those who took the plunge on Crystal Palace attacking assets it was likely a good weekend with all of Eze, Olise and Mateta returning well. Arsenal and Everton defensive assets also returned well but there was large rotation for Liverpool in their victory at Fulham with Trent Alexander-Arnold being the one that got away for James. ...
