The Non-League Football Paper

WIN £5000 WEEKLY UPDATE

- By Ian White

Welcome to the latest update of Fantasy NonLeague 2020/21. Today’s update covers the period Sunday 17th January 2021 through to Saturday 23rd January 2021.

As today is Sunday 31st January 2021 and the substituti­on deadline I thought I would give you your final chance to make those changes. The window closes at midnight tonight.

So, you can send in your substituti­on choices during the month of January 2021 and then your choices will be activated at midnight on Sunday 31st January 2021. You can swap up to three teams and those three teams must have been included on your entry form back at the start of the competitio­n. 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 side and replace them with a team from The Mixture if you so wish. So, 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 Sunday 31st January 2021 are frozen in your team calculatio­ns and then every point Dartford score from the 1st of February 2021 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 it will count as one of your substituti­ons.

So, after reading this you are sat there thinking why I should bother to change anything when I am sat in 823rd 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 second part of the season!! 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 (I can’t take your changes over the phone they must be written down) 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 as they might not reach me in time.
