Mark does a great podcast the athletic is foolish for dropping this pod
JM41000 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/31/23
Most of the FPL podcasts work well due to the interaction and banter between the co-hosts. As a lone presenter, I feel Mark is at something of a disadvantage in that respect, but he is an excellent presenter and it has not been to his detriment. Podcasts are succinct, which I like, and I enjoy...Read full review »

Just the right length for the spin in/out to work. Covers all the topics I want and keeps FPL fun the way it should be. Nice one Mark.

I’ve listened to quite a few different FPL pods over the last 3 years and I find Mark provides the best content out there. Clear and concise info that helps you make your own informed decisions. Listening helps keep me level headed and it stops me from making too many rash decisions. I highly...Read full review »

Not much insight and nothing to set this Podcast apart from the FPL Pod crowd. Waaaay too many Ads for a podcast that weighs in at just over 20 minutes for some episodes

BEST podcast in Fantasy football❤️ I love General!
nafeemas via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 01/04/22
FPL General makes it short and straight to the point. Plus he gives two podcasts before the next GW which is really good. Overall excellent content.

The General’s podcast is the best there is. He has a method for playing the game which is so helpful, so calm and consistent that you end up having more fun as an FPL player. The content is always brilliant - never a wasted minute, because it’s so concise and to the point. You could waste hours...Read full review »

Very good content and yet clear on how the game can be played, yet there are always great options after listening to the 5 star FPL General 😃👌
WingCommander888 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/02/21
The General is thoughtful and methodical, and he delivers the knowledge in a cool, clear manner. All killer, no filler. Love it!
Bernardo Sylva via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/22/21
Content remains v. strong but the number of adverts these days is pretty nauseating.
CBNMNIJ via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/21/21
Hi the content is great but the volume is way too low. I have to turn it up to max volume and still really struggle to hear it when I’m listening to my pods (on my commute). Same can be said for most Athletic pods. But enjoyable when I can hear it.

Well worth your time over the course of the run up to the gameweek. The new Friday episode’s agenda and concise nature is fantastic, particularly if you’ve held on to your transfer until then.
podcastreviewsfromjames via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 08/21/21
This is IMO essential listening for any FPL player looking to improve their rank. The tone is a bit more serious than other pods out there but the content is well researched and to the point. If you only listen to one FPL podcast a week then this is the go to.
Hickofahack via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/16/21
Great work Mark. Really good listening to you each week. Excellent advice
jamesm19881988 via Apple Podcasts · United Arab Emirates · 03/05/21
I really like the podcast, I think Mark does a great job and it’s now my go to pod for FPL. However why oh why do you release a podcast before the GW has ended. Last week the podcast came out before the Spurs v Liverpool game. Mark’s strategy was to bring Kane in, obviously with Kane getting...Read full review »
Doofus7981 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/01/21
I love Mark’s articles on The Athletic and supplements them well on this podcast. I follow both The Official FPL Podcast (who doesn’t love AC Jimbo) and this one. Great Saturday morning listening just before the regular 11am Saturday deadlines - very granular and meticulous in his approach and...Read full review »

Dull and entitled. Don’t recommend.
None, why bother via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/14/21
Been listening to the General for a few seasons now, look forward to it every week. Highly informative and everything is explained at the perfect level as he’s able to connect with the veterans and newbies alike. Top stuff!
Fran McL via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/09/21
Provides great prep before each gameweek
JCole1878 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/22/20
Great detailed reviews of players abs fixtures. No nonsense style, no waffle on the money. Great work!
Reschs999 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/21/20
Definitely the best FPL podcast, listen every week!
Chris 545 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/17/20
I easily recommend this to anyone who plays FPL, his advices were always a help and it makes things so much easier.
Sipan58 via Apple Podcasts · Jordan · 12/17/20
Most accurate, articulate and concise fpl podcast on the net. Love it!
Ethel & Alan via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 12/17/20
Probably my favourite FPL podcast. Has the right episode length, positive attitude and the content is great. A very logical guy and makes it very interesting. Superb content
chris_ellis1986 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/25/20
Such an informative FPL podcast Love the watch list stuff in particular
FPLJAY via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/02/20
So much content out there, but when this podcast drops in it is always the first one I listen to. Concise summary of all the key info you need
Tomthewise1 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/08/20
Used to like the quick 30 min pod but with all the advertising on it now it’s just completely ruined it as have to constantly skip the adverts. I know the General probably needs adverts as he’s doing it full time and for a living but this is too far much the other way
Bluearmys via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/23/20
Mark is great. Excellent quick weekly format. Excellent twitter follow also. He’s been my primary source in my first year playing FPL
dmdaniels via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/25/20
Advertising the cancer that is B365? Goodbye. Planet FPL pod highly recommended
PSW8537 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/04/20
Agree with another reviewer, removing the pauses changes this completely - way to heroic sounding now. Used to love the slow and considered pace of this podcast.
Garujbhfddv via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/21/20
Mark - please put your natural pauses back into the podcast. I’m guessing you have a new editor at Athletic but cutting the pauses out of your speech after every sentence ruins the pace of the pod. Today’s pod is like listening to an fplgeneral on speed. The pod is not a race, you are sharing a...Read full review »

I played FPL in 2018 and finished with a pretty average rank of 2.2 million. This year I started listening to this podcast after seeing some of the General’s articles on The Athletic, and now I’m ranked inside the top 2,000 after 14 green arrows in the last 15 GWs. Is it a coincidence? Maybe you...Read full review »

You are on an airplane and all the crew and passengers fall ill except you. It’s up to you to land the plane. You are scared and unsure but a calm confident voice speaks to you on your headset and helps you to make all the right decisions and pilot that plane back to safety on the ground. ...Read full review »

The general is a fun listen and his podcast gleams some light on why he’s so successful at FPL!
COD's Plan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/20
Favourite FPL-pod out there. To the point, well thought out, comfortable listen. My best FPL-season this season after listening to the General every week. You should give Mark a listen
roflemannen via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 01/07/20
This podcast is extremely helpful and easy to listen to. Mark does a great job keeping us in the loop with all his insider information. I’m doing well this year in FPL and I feel it’s because I’ve become a Patreon member of his. Check it out if you want to do better.
Hi im John via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/19
The general all round great content to improve your Fpl performance year on year.
FPL_Pk@Pk_EPL via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/07/19
Short & to the point. Look forward to it every Tuesday.
FPL Pablo via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 09/19/19
Finally! No laboured banter stretched out over 2 hours, just thoughtful FPL strategy and analysis. You love to see it.

Thanks for the tips, a new player that needs all the help I can get!

Condensed, precise summary on all the latest going-ons with Fantasy Premier League.
The Ki Side via Apple Podcasts · Sweden · 04/17/19
Format = 5* - Many other FPL pods get a bit rambly. This one doesn’t as the regular sections give it structure. Presenter = 5* - The General is very funny and his lovely Irish accent is soothing to listen. Content = 5* - The General is one of the best FPL brains (just check his rankings over...Read full review »

One of three top podcast on FPL. Fresh perspective with the pedigree as a manager to back it up.
