Thanks to @alwayscheatingfpl.bsky.social for all their fine work over the past 10 years.

I discovered them six years ago looking for a pod which allowed me to feel like I was talking about FPL with friends.

They were the first pod FPL I listened to every week.

Thanks, gents.

Should I bench boost?

Question for #fpl experts. I have a team value of 106.6m, which is the highest I have had ever.

I don’t really know what to do with that right now? Are there any strategies I should be thinking of because of that team value?

Was having the worst #fpl season of my life so through some hits at it and now at best OR of my life. A long way to go and realise margin for error is very low. Chip strategy worries me, particularly AM chip. Never got up to more than 2 FTs either. Got lucky.

Should I bench boost this #fpl squad?

The people saying this are broadly just addicted the drama of recent years and only understand politics through the prism of the Tory party. The Labour Party mechanism doesn’t work in the same way and even if it did there’s no equivalent discontent or political split in the current Labour party.
Have read a few pieces saying Starmer may not survive as PM & don't think people are appreciating the consequences. I can't stress enough I just don't think the public will tolerate 'one more switch of PM' instead will conclude the system is not just broken but unfixable

This is an outstanding article as it properly considers the issue.
Hard Thinking on Assisted Dying
I am in favour of assisted dying, but I am delighted I won't have to make this decision in Parliament. Here's why.
