FPL Pod VS Tok

著者: Matthew Homer
  • サマリー

  • If there's one thing that the brothers Matt and Nick Homer like more than Fantasy Premier League, it's trying to out do each other with their respective FPL Teams. However, with both of them struggling to watch every Premier League game and scour the web for online stats and spreadsheets, they've taken to shaping their Teams by taking on the advice of different FPL content creators.

    Matt prefers to glean this FPL wisdom via different podcasts and Nick enjoys the no nonsense immediacy of Tik Tok for his inspiration. In keeping with their friendly sibling rivalry, they wanted to see whose team would do better based on the ways in which they consume FPL content, and so FPL: Pod VS Tok was born!

    Each week Matt and Nick will be talking about how their respective teams are doing as well as providing reviews of the content providers that are helping shape their tactics and transfers week by week. They'll do all this with their unique blend of brotherly teasing random musings and extracts of their journeys to different football grounds ranging from amateur to the Premier League stadiums!

    Matt and Nick can't wait for you to join us as they document their battle for brotherly supremacy through the medium of Fantasy Football!

    You can also play with us through the FPL code: Jeepsw


    So until next time, keep it fun and keep it FPL!

  • A Flurry of Festive Fixtures
    2024/12/24

    There's no rest for these Merry Gentleman as Matt and Saint Nick, (he does have the beard for it), dive straight in talk about their respective game week 17 performances. Whilst Team Tok win again, there are reasons to be joyful and triumphant for Team Pod as a haul from the Egyptian King, Mo Salah, provides some long awaited green arrows for Matt's beleaguered squad.


    The lads then discuss their plans for game weeks 18 and 19 with both brothers promising to ring the Carol Bells of change and make some shrewd signings to strengthen their teams for this busy Christmas schedule. There also promises to be Boxing Day Blues, of the Chelsea variety, as Matt and Nick both look to bring in the bargain that is Enzo Fernandez to bolster their midfields.


    This episode also features more clips from the University of Brighton's SAS Choir with Procedentem Sponsum starting the proceedings (4:44), followed by Ó,gyönyörű szép titokzatos éj, which partly included for the Tik-Tok reference at 15:34. The Choir then sing us out with Silent Night at the end of the podcast.


    Given that we are headed into the part of the year where all the days blur together, we thought it was especially important to provide the transfer deadlines for game weeks 18 and 19, which are: Thursday the 26th of December at 11:00am (game week 18) and game week 19 is Sunday the 29th of December at 1:00pm.

  • Dazed and Confused
    2024/12/19

    In an episode that is part rock 'n' roll and part festive special, Matt and Nick talk about their respective game week 16s as well as the Premier League fixtures ahead.


    In perhaps what is the low point of his season, Matt recounts how more poor decision making cost him 17 points this week. While he admits that he did consider resigning as Manager of Team Pod after benching Lewis Hall and missing out on his plethora of points whilst playing Rayan Aït-Nouri who "achieved" a -2, Matt has resolved to do better in the second half of the season. He has started his recovery by choosing the Gianni Butticè Podcast as his pod of the week.


    With celebrity fan Robert Palmer being in the stands at the Molineux to witness Wolves' capitulation against Ipswich, the brothers squeeze in as many Led Zeppelin puns into the episode as possible. You will be Dazed and Confused by the end of it! Matt also persists with his Pep Guardiola impression as he empathises with City's own run of bad form.


    Conversely, Nick continues to put in strong performances as Manager of Team Tok and, in response to Matt's admission that he may need to take in more stats and spreadsheets to turn his season around, he details his approach by stating: "I watch TikTok's, I drink vodka and I'm winning!"


    With Matt needing some kind of Christmas miracle to turn his season around, he sees an opportunity with the long-awaiting Mystery Chip being revealed as the Assistant Manager Chip. The brothers analyse this new asset which will be available from game week 24. Will this provide the much needed boost for Matt and Team Pod?


    With the lads still waiting on their podcast music, the interludes in this week's show are provided by the SAS Choir and features renditions of "God Rest You, Merry Gentlemen" (00:00), "Es ist ein Rose Entrsprungen" (6:52), "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" (22:58), "Jingle Bells" (38:54) and "We Wish you a Merry Christmas!" (45:33).


    Transfer deadlines and social media details are included below...

    • Transfer deadline 11:00, Saturday the 21st of December.
    • League code: jeepsw
    • Blue Sky: @fplpodvstok.bsky.social
    • Insta @ fplpodvstok2024
    • X @ @fplpodvstok


    Happy Holidays listeners and remember, keep it Festive and Keep it F.P.L!


    Bye for now!

  • Poor Performance from Hamlet
    2024/12/13

    In this week's episode, Nick regales the pod about his underwhelming experience of non-league football action when, due to storm Darragh, he had to switch from the Mayfield to Champion Hill to see Dulwich Hamlet take on the far superior Dover Athletic. The lack of atmosphere at the game leads Nick to conclude that if it comes to watching Dulwich or no football that weekend, he'd take his chances and not watch a game at all. Dulwich fans, you know how to contact us if you disagree.


    Ahead of talking all things Premier League, Matt talks about making time to see more Sussex based football as well as overcoming his aversion to watching Brighton and Hove Albion. Despite being a Chelsea fan, maybe those trips to Selhurst Park as a youngster sewed the seeds of bias against the Seagulls.


    Matt's miserable season continues as the lads talk about their game weeks 14 and 15 and it's made all the worse when the new listeners to the Pod VS Tok league also beat beat him. It can only get better right!


    There's genuinely good FPL advice the lads look to GW 16 and Nick talks Liverpool and double game weeks. We finish the episode by wishing, former Tooting and Mitcham player and current West Ham forward, Michail Antonio all the best in his recovery.


    The first footie clip in this episode is from Dulwich V Dover, the remaining sound bites are more clips from the brother's visit to the Cherry Red to see AFC Wimbledon take on Accrington Stanley. As it may be a little while before we see any live football, we would appreciate any recordings that you have from matches where you have seen you local team! We'd love to hear them with a view to featuring them on the pod, so please do email them over!


    And here's the rest of the details ahead of game week 16.


    • Transfer deadline 13:30, Saturday the 14th of December.
    • League code: jeepsw (Come and have a go if you think your 'are enough!)
    • Blue Sky: @fplpodvstok.bsky.social
    • Insta @ fplpodvstok2024
    • X @ @fplpodvstok


    And our email is: fplpodvstok@gmail.com


    Thank you for listening and please do like and review the pod as well as share with your friends, family and other football lovers!


    Keep it fun and keep it FPL!
