This season I have noticed a bigger balls up than usual with FF games.
I play 4 and 3 have screwed up.
1 FPL - Massive balls up and still can't get H2H sorted.
2 Sun - Can't do correct leagues
3 DM - cannot calculate correct scores

None have indicated they will ever solve their issues.

The Telegraph is good this year, a problem with the live match info at the start but they've got an android app that works for subs and have made the game better in other ways. I'm surprised tbh, they've reversed their decline well.

As for the FPL game, how to eff up a great game for no reason at all, they should be ashamed of themselves.

As FPL is free I have no idea why people are complaining, same with the Mail.

The Sun is slightly worse as you pay to play this game.

Agreed, If you pay for something you expect a decent service, otherwise if its free then no reason to complain.

I'm just asking that they add up correctly. It is not rocket science. Just because it's free doesn't give them licence to be crap.

Yep, they have done all the important stuff right this year :D I enjoyed doing my transfers from the bath using the phone on friday night :lol:

Surely directly related to the fact that, for once, the game is being organised by the same people for two years running. The bit they screwed up was the new bit and weeren't FPL changing a heck of a lot of stuff???

Agreed. If nobody complains, nobody knows that anything is wrong.

FPL - awful
TFF - has been great except the live score centre not working on day 1, but not bothered about that
Mail - seen a few complaints about them but it has been fine for me
Sky - problems week 1 and minileagues still not sorted
Star - fine except they can't award points properly
Sun - fine except minileagues still not sorted
OFL - back to normal excellent performance (had a few issues last year or the year before, when they brought in a new website design - now it's all settled in it's fine, looks like all the other games are catching up!)

I agree.. i can't see the total numbers but from the position of my teams .. they've probably got in to 300k region.. whereas last year i would have said around 240k...was their max..
i would agree that a lot of FF GAMES have performed badly.. at the initial stages.. and i'm still not happy with FPL.. as the font is not eye-friendly.. i'm guessing that yes.. as it is free.. we should not complain but make our displeasure felt and go elsewhere.. errr i fortunately have 30 elsewheres to go to!!
