The Non-League Football Paper

WEEKLY UPDATE

- By Ian White

WELCOME to the latest update of Fantasy Non-League 2019/20. Today’s update covers the period Sunday December 1 through to Saturday December 7.

So, guys, did you pick the right teams? I bet a lot of you were already thinking about making your subs back in September. Well it is now time to send in your substituti­ons. The window for your subs is open and all your substituti­on requests must be with me here at FNL Towers by midnight on Tuesday December

31. Your changes will be activated on Wednesday January 1, 2020.

Now, remember you can only make up to three substituti­ons and those three teams must have been included on your entry form back in August at the start of the season. Your changes do not have to be like for like as far as the leagues are concerned. For example, you can remove a National League Premier side and replace them with a team from The Mixture if you so wish.

If you are new to FNL this season this is how the subs work. If you remove Dover Athletic from your team and replace them with, say, Dartford, all the points Dover have scored up to midnight on December 31 are frozen in your team calculatio­ns and then every point Dartford score from January 1, 2020 up to the end of the season become part of your main score.

Please Note: You can change your Jokers, but if you do this will count as one of your substituti­ons.

If after reading this you are sat there thinking why I should bother to change anything when I am sat in 1,202nd in the main FNL table, well a good reason could be if you make the right changes you could pick up a FNL Manager of the Month award in the New Year! Also, remember that you can pick up £50 for finishing bottom each month, so if you are nearer the bottom then the top then make some changes that might give you the chance of finishing bottom.

Finally, send the changes you want to make to the FNL Helpdesk either by e-mail, text or by post to FNL Substituti­ons, Flat 14 Chataway House, Leach Road, Chard, Somerset, TA20 1GH. Please don’t send any of your changes to the paper. fnl07544@ btinternet.com Phone Number 07909 993854
