Project Restart. Football came back after a three month lockdown. Right away the banter taps were opened and the humour started flowing non-stop. It was certainly apparent that our witty jibs and trolls had not become entangled or locked down. Here is a collection for your enjoyment. (Note: These were collated before the FA cup semis)

Welcome back. There are three things quite important in a football fan’s life. Banter, Bragging Rights, Banter. In that order. We might as well put those three words on a flag and have it as the backdrop to this section of FootieFantasy.com.

Quid Pro Quo, a phrase that has suddenly become mainstream. According to wikipedia, ”it is a Latin phrase used in English to mean an exchange of goods or services, in which one transfer is contingent upon the other; “a favour for a favour”. Phrases with similar meanings include: “give and take”, “tit for tat”, and “you scratch my back, and I’ll scratch yours”.
Quid Pro Troll, a phrase that encompasses the definitions above but also applicable to entertaining banter in the world of football. So go ahead and enjoy the generous act of ”A troll for a troll”, the favourable giving and taking of good-humoured jabs in the ”tit for tat” universe of our extraordinary footie fans.
So here we are. Here we go again. The first month of Season 2019/20 had many memorable moments and many opportunities for our PFLEF members to express their creativity. The banter and the trolling immediately hit top level from day one. Here is our collection of the best of the best. So let’s have DMX serenade us into this edition. Enjoy !!
The 2018/19 season is reaching breaking point. And the music is reaching a crescendo. The top two teams keep swapping between first and second place (A record 29 times as at the time this article was written) . The other ”Top 6” members beneath them also keep swapping positions. As aptly termed by our FootieFantasy’s EeJay, it all seems like a game of musical chairs. Spurs are the only spoilsports who haven’t participated fully in this joyous party activity. We still have a lot of troll and banter material regardless. Let the music play.
Brexit. A word which didn’t even exist until the year 2012. However, it is now also a word we have probably heard uttered in the news 7 million times in the subsequent 7 years. While the political shambles of the Brexit process has been an ongoing situation, English football’s ”Big Six” clubs are refusing to Brexit the European club competitions. Liverpool, Manchester City, Tottenham, Arsenal, Manchester United, and Chelsea are all still in Europe.
Their success and progress at that level have not absolved them of being trolled at various times. Here is our round-up of the hard-hitting, the humorous and the hurtful (including some bonus material featuring non-English sides).
If you think reading this may stress you out as badly as Theresa May, may we advise that you activate Article 50 and exit this article at this point? Thank you.
My fellow citizens of BanterinLand, I am here today to let you know that the FootieFantasy Government is declaring a State of Emergency. We did not take this decision lightly. There has been an unprecedented influx of trolls and memes and we can not cope with the accumulation of such content any longer. We could have declared the State of Emergency earlier but felt that it would be unfair on our loyal readers. So please make do with this collection of material gathered as evidence in the past few weeks. There will be no customary commentary attached to them due to the nature of this emergency. Bear with us.

No, we don’t have Lauryn Hill as a guest writer. We do have some trolls as memorable as some of her hit songs from the classic album ”The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill”.
