Hello, hello, hello. And welcome to Scoutcast brought to you by Fantasy Football Scout. And as always, you're joined by me and the FPL mode. We are also joined by two extremely lovely people, one of which, we don't get on here very much, but I'll come to him in a second. Hibbo, thank you so much for joining us again this evening. It is always a pleasure to have you on with us. How is it going, my man?

SPEAKER_3 (1:07)

It's going good. And I think it's important to start the show by saying the Andy mode season continues, because we have Andy mode on the cusp, on the very, very cusp of top 10k after, what is it, nine game weeks. So I think it bodes well for the part ahead, because like you've been talking in seasons gone by about, if I could start as well as I could finish, and maybe that's an analogy for other things in your life. But look, it's great to be on the pod. Loads of talk about I think we've had big defenders coming on big once again.

And it's good to celebrate your rink as well. So I think you should celebrate yours.

SPEAKER_2 (1:42)

Oh, thank you very much. I wasn't going to mention it.

I wasn't going to mention it at all. So I'm glad that you've shoehorned it in there, because I wasn't going to mention my week or my season at all. But one thing I was going to mention was somebody that makes me weak at the knees, which is Chai. How is it going, my man? We haven't, I don't think I've streamed with you since World Cup coverage.

SPEAKER_4 (2:03)

I was going to say, Andy, I've hosted Scalecast two or three times now, and I've been waiting to come on, if I'm being honest. And this time Callum is flagged, he's out and I'm happy to take his place. And looking forward to the stream. Good to see that you're having an absolute storm of the season though. I mean, nearly, almost in the top 10k, I might just give it to you, which makes you one of the best content creators out there. So good stuff, Andy.

SPEAKER_2 (2:25)

I mean, I've been saying it for years, but at least now, my rank actually shows that.

Do you know what? I was, cause I remember messaging you when I, cause I was on holiday when you hosted Scoutcast. And I remember messaging you saying, don't do too good a job, mate. I need this. I need to be the host. And obviously you came on and you were great. And I was like, if I get a message from someone saying, yeah, you don't need to come back again. So I thought, you know what? I need a good season to make sure Chai doesn't usurp me. But it's an absolute pleasure to have you on here again, mate. And like I said, it feels like a long time ago, how we were doing World Cup stuff. But we've got some FPL to talk about. We're going to be talking about our points from this week and see how we all got on. We're also going to be looking at our advert teams for, what's it called? Fantasy Footie League. So we're going to be talking about that as well. We've done it. This is our third week in a row now. We've been talking about those and we've got our five player teams to be talking about. We've got our CBIT tables. We've got our XGI tables. We've also got Captain C and there is a very interesting name at the top of Captain C this week. Then we've got our fixtures to look at. We've got XGI and DC. We've got suspension tightrope, which is an interesting one, which we don't normally talk about but we're bringing it in this week because there's some that are close to suspension. We've got the new COM Team League. We've got our bus teams and we've also got a little bit of a Q&A at the end as well. So without any further ado, let's see how we did this week and let's start with my team. I ended up with 81 points this week, which I'm not really sure how I did it, but it did help a little bit that my team, Manchester United, are so incredibly awful. And I had two midfielders up against them, but I did have Ryron Konzer, who got me 15 points between them. Konzer, I chose to start over Calafiore because I thought he could get Defcon against Liverpool. Sorry, I'm definitely going to sneeze in a second.
