| 0:00.0 | FPO is finally back and we're wondering whether it's really wise to wildcard this week as we |
| 0:05.0 | plot our chip strategies. We do an in-depth dive on the doubling teams. Explain it might be worth |
| 0:09.6 | going early on Brighton and apologies in advance that I can't count. |
| 0:17.1 | Well, it's been a good week, hasn't it? We've had Easter. Hopefully the Easter bunny visited you. We've had some sunshine if you're in the UK. I'm sure there's people listening to this in far sunnier climes that say, well, we have sunshine all year. Well, we don't in the UK, okay? So we're happy because we've had a bit of sunshine. But the best bit of news is still to come. The Premier League is back, which means a few of us have got a few headaches, like whether to |
| 0:38.3 | wild card. I'm looking at myself in that one. Sam and Jules don't have that headache, but we've all got headaches, haven't we? We've got plenty of excitement because it is back. And Jules, do you want to get out the way early? We're recording late on Wednesday night and you're probably going to rub it in the face of all of the Liverpool fans that PSG just beat them. yeah no i, I mean, I don't want to rub anything Liverpool fans, but your team was dreadful. My team was great tonight. And that should set up swell for the second leg next week at Enfield. Enough of that, though, Sam. How are you feeling? Don't take a swig of your team. I'm about to ask you a question. Don't sit back. I'm not going to sit there and let him gloat because everyone will be turning off and our listeners will go down. No, no, no, no, no, no. |
| 1:13.8 | How are you feeling about |
| 1:14.6 | the return of FPR? I can show my shirt if you want underneath my... Oh no, please. Sam, Sam, start talking. Start talking. distract from him. It's going to be great. too much off there, Jules. |
| 1:24.1 | This is the best. |
| 1:25.0 | No, please don't. |
| 1:26.1 | This is going to be the best part of the season. |
| 1:27.7 | He can't hear us because he's taking his headphones out. |
| 1:29.5 | It's going to be the best part of the season for us, right? |
| 1:31.2 | We're getting into the fun bit. We're getting into the bit where the blanks and the doubles come. We're getting into the bit where chips. Everyone goes a bit chip crazy. And so the next seven weeks are going to be the difference makers, I guess. They're the ones that you have to |
| 1:44.3 | get right. It doesn't matter really necessarily how well it's gone so far. If you mess up your chip |
| 1:48.7 | strategy, if you mess up these last seven weeks, it's very easy to throw away leads. But equally, |
| 1:53.9 | it's very easy to start gaining points back if you get the strategy right and if you get on the |
| 1:58.7 | right pairs at the right time. So yeah, definitely don't miss Friday's deadline and be ready for the coming weeks. Yeah, there's your first reminder. 6.30pm because there's a big game at the bottom really, West Ham versus Wolves. It's big, well, Sam doesn't need me to remind her it. It's big because if West Ham win that, you've got a problem on your hands, Sam. I was thinking before we started this podcast, |
| 2:19.5 | sorry, before we dive into kind of our tips and thoughts on the season, who do you think |
| 2:23.5 | there is more pressure on on this podcast going into the run-in? Because myself and Sam are chasing |
| 2:28.6 | and trying to salvage what's been a disappointing season, but Jules could be on for another really, |
| 2:33.7 | really good finish. Who's there more pressure on, do you reckon, Sam? Us but Jules could be on for another really, really good finish. |
| 2:34.9 | Who's there more pressure on, do you reckon, Sam, us or Jules? |
