10 of the most rib-tickling Fantasy Premier League team names

It’s not all about accruing points.

Published

Fantasy football pre-season is mostly spent worrying about whether to invest more heavily in midfield or attack, but a few minutes at least will be given to picking a team name.

The good people at Fantasy Premier League allow managers just 20 characters to play with, so there’s not much room for messing around.

That said, each year a plethora of fantastically funny team names rear their heads, so here are 10 of the most appropriate for the 2018/19 season.
