We at Fantasy Football Scout are delighted to announce that we’re teaming up with the newly launched English Football League (EFL) Fantasy game for the 2024/25 season.
We’ll be producing plenty of content on this new Fantasy EFL game, both before the season and during it, which will appear both on FFS AND also on the official EFL site, as FFS is teaming up directly with the world’s oldest football league who are running the game. To avoid too much duplication we’ll include links to both.
And all of our pre-season articles will be able to be found in this page – so bookmark it and keep coming back as it gets progressively more filled.

We’ve also set up our own Fantasy Football Scout mini-league. Head to this link here to join or use the code JFV419AC after hitting ‘Join a league‘ in the Leagues section.
