Living in a fantasy footie world
So the FIFA World Cup has come to an end — but what’s more important than Spain beating the Netherlands and lifting The Cup for the first time? The Dusted Studio Fantasy Football League of course. Congratulations go to Jamie for winning (some might say predictably, but Paul the Octopus didn’t see it coming).
The race for second and third was slightly more interesting with David and Matt battling with friend of Dusted, Nic Achampong. However with Nic using most of his transfers early in the tournament, he had lost his second place by the end of the final whistle. A tactical captain choice by Matt (garnering him double points from goal scorer Iniesta) was enough to push him ahead of David, much to Mr Wall’s disappointment.
As for the remaining Dusted players, they all suffered from breaks away from the office and quite clearly paid for their leisurely approaches — apart from Darren who was just too busy to maintain his team.
