With just the FA Cup Final, the UEFA Cup Final and the Champions League Final to
come, the 2005/06 Fantasy Football Season is near its end.
So let's take a brief look at how the top Seasonal Fantasy Football games are
heading with the finishing line so close.
For those who can't wait until the start of the 2006 World Cup then check the
following FISO Forum thread which lists the 2006 World Cup

Telegraph Fantasy Football (TFF)

This game has the scores for Sunday's final set of EPL
fixtures and the FA Cup Final left.

As you can see the table is very close, just 7pts separating the top 2 teams.
There is a further gap of 24pts separating 3rd place, but the run in could all
be decided on whether the top teams had Henry in their team and have any
transfers left, or have enough Liverpool and West Ham players in their teams now
to get them over the finishing line. With such a vast difference between 1st (£50,000)
and 2nd (£5,000) prize it really will be 'squeaky bum' time for Messrs Burton
and Fox during the FA Cup Final.Good luck to Messrs Fox and Clark from FISO who
are 2nd and 4th overall.
The top Super League “LEAGUE OF GENTLEMEN” has a healthy 21pts
average over “FISO'S FANTASY FORUM”. All the Chairmen of the top 5
Super Leagues are regular FISO Forum members.

It’s pretty close at the top on the run in with just UEFA Cup final, FA Cup
final and Champions League Final matches now to count. There is also the 20
point bonus to be allocated to presumably Thierry Henry. There are two people
from FISO in the top 40 but they both look unlikely to get into the top 10.
On the mini league front, FISO has a slight lead.
