Foster 50% owned in top 10k. Wow how can he be that high.

I guess people have not used keeper transfers, but still insane given that De Gea, Ramsdale have had blanks.

Bruno higher owned than Ronaldo after the opposite being true one week ago. So many guys with Bruno that increased the rank a lot.

Did people actually spend their FT to get in Foster? Why? He is just a low score keeper.
I literally traded Bachmann for him this week. Watford keeps have been a constant for me this season as I don't use much money in that position usually. This news has angered me greatly.

Same man. Unreal luck. Looks like he'll be back for the Burnley game anyway and still might outscore DDG. Just got to laugh at this season...

FFS. Foster could have posted that on Instagram an hour earlier!

I started Bachman over DDG just in case Foster is out. Not sure I made the right call considering Foster will probably be back for the second game now.
Not if he has covid and Bachman does ok

There's just some players you never get any gain from isn't there?

Foster, Brownhill...others?

Anyone who either brought Foster in for a -4 or for a transfer, or changed captain off Dennis due to that dodgy twitter account must be absolutely raging.

That sucks. You can try writing to them but I haven't seen anything been done so far.
It was actually 975 transfer for a -3900 hit. Was up inside 30k too, and winning a couple of cash leagues with mates.

I've written to them via help but not expecting anything. Ah well.

:lol:
You'll go apesh!t if Dennis has a big un.
I actually changed back after everyone calling it bullshit, but could go both way. Dennis higher ownership makes me feel like I can hope for both doing well which is more fun.
I actually have no feeling either way. Could see them assist each other which would be nice. Or Pedro takes the show.

You guys realise not releasing squad news is more important than helping people playing a fantasy game? :lol:
Surely the priority would be securing a 2 pointer for us!??

Do you have a screenshot of that?! That is absolutely bonkers.

Your pals must have fallen off their seats when checking what you'd done this week :houllier:

I went to the pub and forgot to transfer in Foden. I always laugh at people that do this, so this is pay back.

That said I will laugh so hard if he blanks.

Looking down my league a few in the top 10 have done it, but one guy did a -4 to take him out :lol:
Hope he's punished.

I hope you’re able to get your team back mate.

Saw someone in my league take him out this week.
Wonder what their thinking was?!

Decided to take -4 for Ronaldo & ESR to Dennis & KDB.

I just have a feeling KDB will kill it this week. His record vs Southampton is also pretty good like 4 goals and 7 assists in 10 games.

DDG
Cancelo TAA White
KdB Jota Bowen Gray BSilva
Dennis(C) Kane

Good luck lads

Didn’t even notice that. At the very least I don’t have to worry about missing deadlines anymore!

Right, we could do 2,000 points of hits, that'll screw him.

Nah, do 3,900 to make sure.

So feckin shitty. I know it’s ‘just a game’, but considering you can win real prizes on FF, I think people hacking should be charged and fined (heftily).

If it continues on without FPL reversing it, it has the potential to wreck the game.
Problem is you can't identify who is doing it as they're probably in some obscure country and maybe even doing it via a script.

Though I do like the idea of some gimpish twat sat in his dark basement individually making transfers for hours.

@Baxter can you clear that up...are the transfer times all the same, or are they a few seconds apart...see if we're dealing with a weird kid or script.

Almost browned myself when Dennis just studded someone....imagine if he got a red!!!

Doesn't look like he can control a ball at times which is not promising.

The recent ones are done through a script. All around the same 3900 mark.
I suppose no clues how they're managing to hack into these?
People using ropey passwords, crap security, etc?

Nonchalantly scoring the winner...

Yeah, FPL should reverse it to the team you had previously and give you a 24 point hit or something to prevent people from doing it on purpose when they want to reverse their transfers.

Soon, winning it will be potentially corrupted as it’s highly possible that hackers are being paid to wreck other high ranked teams.

It pretty much seems they hacked into the FPL server and nicked a copy of the entire database.

Just keep changing password to be safe. But really there should be two factor authentication.

It depends if they've got a sophisticated enough system to see what teams have had these huge hits (3,900?) and then have something built that adds xxx points back on.

I suspect they don't have anything clever enough to do that to be honest, as they never change anything else.

Or stay crap enough to not hit their radar :lol:

Yeah all the same. 17.52 into 17.53. I checked twitter and a few had the same squad and team name that mine was changed too. Must be a script. If I logged in before the deadline, probably could have used a free hit but didn’t think to check obviously :lol:
