Welcome to the Fantasy Football Scout mini-leagues and community competitions roundup after Blank Gameweek 26, when many had to take a points hit just to field a full starting XI, differential captains Bukayo Saka and Ollie Watkins outscored the popular choice of Erling Haaland, whilst only a select few owned Jarrod Bowen’s hat-trick.
We report on the latest news from the Head-to-Head Leagues and Last Man Standing as well as on the leaders of many community mini-leagues. Strikers Keepers Losers Weepers, however, is covered by a separate series of articles.
FFSCOUT OPEN-TO-ALL LEAGUE
Even Winje is the new leader of our Fantasy Football Scout mini-league (code 5k0l6n) and has risen to 58th overall. Watkins had Even’s armband, also getting double-digit hauls from Saka, Phil Foden and Lewis Dunk.
Prizes will be awarded to the top ten FFS-registered teams at the end of the season. See this article for full details.

LAST MAN STANDING
The safety score for Gameweek 26 in TorresMagic’s Last Man Standing competition (LMS) was 47 after hits, with 48 teams being removed.

David Squires – now 3,561st overall – is top scorer of the Gameweek, with double-digit hauls from all four of his midfielders Bowen, Saka, Foden and Douglas Luiz. He is heading for a fourth successive top 20k finish.
