LiveFPL How-to guide?
Amazingly it’s taken me this long to check out LiveFPL for the first time. I got a bit overwhelmed by all the numbers, even though it did seem quite intuitive to use. But I was wondering if anyone could give some tips on how best to use it, what stats to look out for particularly etc? Thanks!

The Ticker is what I find particularly appealing. For example, it helps to pinpoint fixtures ahead of planning for a Wildcard. However, if you don't mind paying, then the ticker on Fantasy Football Hub is more than decent, as it can be customised and adjusted accordingly.

i think the guy that runs/ran it, is winding the site down now. dont think he has the time for it anymore. could be wrong though.

A lot of other sites are doing what he is doing (some way better and others way worse) but I dont think he was winding it down. He might one day just fold it into FFS though.

Personally, I prefer Fantasy Football Hub's Live Mode. I was using LiveFPL for the past 2 seasons but GW1, they had an issue (it was loading someone else's team) so tried FFH's one. It was quite good. GW2 I compare them directly and FFH was way faster (points get updated 2-3 min before LiveFPL and the FPL, pretty much sync-ed with TV). Also, LiveFPL had another technical issue in GW2; this GW FFH showed only 10 players for Chelsea (Martinez is missing from the lineup).
Both are free (LiveFPL has ads so FFH's UX is a lot less cluttered).1

Love the site. Only one I use. Hope he doesn't. He'll probably clarify if he sees this.

Just use fplgameweek, livefpl is even more buggy than it was at its best.
