Hey, all cheaters. Welcome to the Always Cheating podcast. We're back. This is the fourth pod we have done since the international break began. The first one, though, Brennan, we have actual FPL to get into, which I'm excited about. We have a midweek. So right off the bat. Just quick. If this is, you know, if you've completely checked out in this podcast, just hit your feet for the first time.

And, you know, actually, we've been doing pods. I don't know what we've been talking about. Yeah, we've been doing a lot of... You're a liar, listener. Yeah, yeah. But if you're... Yeah, exactly. But if you are, like, just now checking back in to fantasy, please note, there are games on Tuesday. it's a midweek.

So the F.A. Cup matches this weekend.

Obviously, that had a big impact on... No, there are games on Tuesday. It's a midweek. So the F8 Cup matches this weekend.

Obviously, that had a big impact on the rest of the season.

Just like old times, you know, you have the FAC Cup semifinals,

and that means there are teams that were scheduled to play on those weekends

that now have rescheduled fixtures.

And we don't actually have as much clarity as I kind of hoped we would have.

But we do have our very smart people who look at this stuff and make best guesses.

We've got some outside firms that are working on this around the clock for us.

They have consistently proven themselves to be, you know, worth listening to, right?

So I think we can we can rely on them.

Thank you to Ben Krellin and Legomane and all the other hardworking souls out there

who do the hard work to figure this stuff out.

Because I was looking through Ben's notes ahead of this.

Like, it is hard.

Like, it is, it is not easy easy it's like you are literally reading through

press releases from you know from from clubs trying to you know read tea leaves and stuff like that

and somehow it's like if you do enough of this across enough you know enough different venues you

get what what we have empirically found to be like an accurate picture of what's actually going to happen. And obviously they will formally announce all this stuff at some point, but it's pretty important to know if a team's going to be playing twice or blank, you know, in the upcoming weeks. I mean, obviously we know some of these teams are going to blank. We don't know which game weeks is going to happen, right? So if you know when it's going to happen, it has a major impact on your transfer strategy, right?

So the earlier you can kind of come to some conclusions about this, the better, you know,
