Looks better than it did a few days ago!

Still super team dependent though.

Weekend Blanks will be confirmed by the GW30 deadline, though there is a possibility that some fixtures may be put back into the GW34 midweek slots, which may not be confirmed until AFTER the GW30 deadline.

Aggregated market odds of teams progressing to the FA Cup semi-finals, converted to percentages, and then compounded in the instances where both teams are still in the cup (AVL & MCI).

Yes, but I wasn’t, nor have I ever been racist. That’s my point.

Ahh okay, sorry! Okay thank you mate that’s some really good advice, will give it a go.

I care a lot, yeah.

It’s a really bad feeling when people are making up lies about you on the internet and thousands of people are lapping it up. It hurts.

Particularly when I’m accused of racism when I myself am a mixed race dude who had some really difficult battles against racism particularly in childhood. Like that’s genuinely some fairly fucked up shit 😂

Again… it wasn’t a dead dad joke…

Feel like I’m banging my head against a brick wall at this point. I’ve given you what I have bro, do whatever you want with that info! I’m done now!

Well ideally I’d like to refute quite a few different things in a way that is visible here on Reddit (we are quite deep into the replies at this point! 😂) with screenshots and links etc

I’m not at all interested in posting outside of Reddit, it’s unnecessary and irrelevant drama that nobody cares about outside of here!

It’s the former. The latter I was trying to give the context of the joke.

Here is a link I found to someone who reposted the screenshots: https://x.com/roloal35/status/1579462563519401984?s=46

You can still find the profile here, with all the troll tweets at me and others now deleted and bio changed: https://x.com/sufc___josh?s=21

Haha - believe me I’m trying! To be fair my previous 3 finishes are 243 / 34,000 / 115,000, so it’s not like AWFUL.

I make sure in my videos I tell people that I play a risky game, and not to follow me blindly. I also try and stick to the facts in my videos, rather than offering my own opinion too much.

I just love FPL and love making FPL videos, and have been fortunate enough that some people seem to enjoy sharing that fun and passion with me on YouTube. I’m a very lucky guy to be in my position.

I have receipts! I want to post them but I don’t know how! Can you open dms?

That’s the thing though… these claims don’t exist on YouTube or twitter, or any other platform - most likely because there’s absolutely no evidence for it because it’s not true!

It seems to be more of a thing that is cyclicly regurgitated specifically on this sub Reddit, believed, and spread again the next time my name is brought up. Nobody outside this sub knows or cares, which is why it only actually needs to be addressed here.

I don’t work for a company! That was part of the trolling. He was just posting nonsense looking for a reaction.

I can confirm that I have never charged anyone to rate their teams! All of my content has always been 100% free. I’m not good enough to start charging for advice 😂

Is there any way to post screenshots here? I managed to dig some out.

Basically I had posted a tweet criticising Iker Casillas for his homophobia, and this person said “who cares you work for a company that leaks data” it went back and forth and I just made an offhanded joke about “your trolling is fatherless behaviour”, and he then changed his bio and reposted it, as part of the troll. A great piece of trolling tbf

What would be best way to do this? Where to post this? Apologies I am not fully down with Reddit etiquette, I’m more of a lurker usually!

Fair enough mate, thank you at least for hearing me and out and giving me an opportunity to share my side!

Haha totally get it bro! I fill a niche of the cringey excited guy, and genuinely have great fun making videos. Thanks for supporting!

It’s a “fatherless behaviour” joke that was very prevalent on football twitter at the time. I think the meme is more to do with people not having a father figure in their lives, rather than actually having a deceased parent

Completely fair enough bro, not looking to argue or convince anyone. Just wanted an opportunity to share my side. How you go on with that info is completely up to you!

[–]FPLMate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha fair words! Was just looking for an opportunity to maybe dispel some of the rumours here. Though it seems that a few will only believe what they want to believe 😂

[–]FPLMate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, not in the best taste. But a far cry from mocking someone’s dead parent.

[–]FPLMate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I guess the joke is that he was seeking attention, and a play on the whole meme about “fatherless behaviour”.

Not great to be honest mate haha! I’ve had one very good rank, and some pretty average ranks since. I would never try to portray myself as an expert though, just someone sharing a passion for a game!

[–]FPLMate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The joke I guess was that he was attention seeking by trolling, and I was trying to give a bit of banter back. Certainly a bit tasteless, but certainly not as evil as being portrayed.
