FPL Silverdiggers FC

Lär känna FPL-laget Silverdiggers FC lite bättre! Silverdiggers FC är gruvarbetarnas lag – sliter hårt och är aldrig rädda att få skit under naglarna. Långärmade tröjor är inget som existerar utan både match och träning sker utan långbyxor eller några fjollhandskar. Här är det inte tal om några stilpoäng och tiki-taka – i Silverdiggers FC är det fullt fokus på hårt arbete, snabba omställningar och riktigt långa inkast. Sparka-spring fotboll när den är som allra bäst i kombination med 11 benknäckare som aldrig lägger fingrarna emellan. Lagnamnet syftar dels till deras legendariska managers efternamn Silversten dels på dess managers uppväxtort i Sala kommun som är känd för sin silvergruva där man började bryta silvermalm redan på 1400-talet. Hemmaarenan Silvervallen är den mest fruktade bortaarenan i ligan, hotfull stämning på såväl läktaren som på planen. Vad har du för förväntningar på säsongen 23/24? Som vanligt spelar vi för att vinna, om vi inte klarar det spelar vi för att skada. Att vi ska sluta före soplagen The Anfielders @Norrstroem och FC Snedgunga @PoddenFpl ser vi som en självklarhet. Vi ska sluta etta i alla våra miniligor men även ligga sist i Fairplay ligan när vi summerar allt efter 38 omgångar. Bästa FPL minne? Utan tvekan säsongen 17/18 då vi hamnade på en OR på 5820. Det var även i GW38 som vi klev förbi FC Snedgunga efter att legenden Patrick van Aanholt slår till med en drömstrut. Sämsta FPL minne? Ligger i närtid från förra säsongen. FPL servrarna hänger sig och det gör att vi inte lyckas få igenom något byte innan deadline, Cancelo med bindeln plockar det röda kortet redan under första halvlek. Inte för att vi i Silverdiggers FC har något emot röda kort men detta var en total domarkatastrof och något som inte ens skulle renderat i frispark. Värsta FPL rival? Utan tvekan FC Snedgunga som står för exakt allt vi i Silverdiggers FC är emot. Att dem dessutom har ”FC” före sitt klubbnamn snarare än efter tycker jag säger exakt allt…

Gästade @PoddenFpl och delade med mig av mina tankar!

@Norrstroem deras människosyn och politiska idéer - detta med anledning att både M och KD själva har närmat sig SDs politik i många år. Detta får mig dock att vilja kräkas och skämmas som svensk.

@Norrstroem regeringsunderlag och viktiga ministerposter något helt annat och något vi aldrig tidigare sett i svensk politisk historia. Man kanske inte ska bli så förvånad eller ens upprörd av att partier som dagens M och dagens KD krokar arm med ett parti som SD och är med och normaliserar

Det här måste väl i ärlighetens namn till och med sossar tycka vara riktigt pinsamt? Att stå så svarslös på sin egen presskonferens. Galet.

@Norrstroem Att inte se relevansen i en politisk kontext tycker jag är märkligt. Tycker det är mer pinsamt kring genomtänkt strategi att tillåta främlingsfientligt parti till viktiga ministerposter än att en enskild partiledare stakar sig på orden.

@ASilversten Det kan man så klart tycka är pinsamt, eller inte. Har dock svårt att se relevansen kopplat till svamlet i videon jag postade. Men att Jimmie eller Nooshi är minister i nästa regering är ju givet läget helt självklart för alla, så där måste man (alla partier) ju välja så klart.

Hi everyone! Does anyone have a benching headache this week they need help sorting?

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚽️WE HAVE DONE IT AGAIN! ⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Another podcast trip can now be added to the list of phenomenal football-themed experiences. For the fifth year in a row, we at @PoddenFpl brought a large group of listeners to London for a long weekend of watching football, socializing, and discovering everything the city has to offer. This year we went all out, and in total, we were 5⃣0⃣(!) people in the party. But let’s take it from the beginning… The podcast was represented on this trip by @Norrstroem, Stefan Knutsson, and @ASilversten. As early as Thursday evening, we gathered at Alex's place to catch the 07:00 flight✈️to Heathrow, London, in the early hours of Friday morning. Upon arrival, we made our way to our regular hotel, the Royal National🏨, and after dropping off our bags, we set our sights on a full day by the Thames. First, we had an always-pleasant lunch at the Borough Market food market, and then we took a short walk to the wonderful Bierkeller Bermondsey. One of London's coolest underground pubs, which, in addition to great beer and drinks, gave us the opportunity to throw darts, play shuffleboard, and even try axe-throwing 🪓🎯with an instructor. The prize for a 180 score? A Jäger shot! After a few hours hanging out at the Bierkeller, we stopped by the hotel and then got ready for another recurring spot on these trips—the lovely 🇨🇮 Waxy O’Connors 🇨🇮, which turns into a sort of pub/club fusion during the final hours before closing. The large balcony floor was reserved for our group, and you can probably guess who owned the dance floor🕺when the troubadour started the live music🎸🎶. From Waxy’s, parts of the group continued out into the London night, and the nightclub O’Neills proved enticing once again on this trip. On Saturday, 1⃣1⃣ people in the party, led by Alex, took the train to Birmingham to see Aston Villa vs. Leeds, while Stefan and I were part of the group of 2⃣4⃣ who set course for The Den to see Millwall vs. Portsmouth. The Birmingham group had a memorable trip, to say the least, which Alex summarizes like this: From London Euston, we headed toward Birmingham, and on the train ride there, the atmosphere was at its peak with quizzes, 🍺,🍸, and🥜. Once there, the club shop outside Villa Park had to be visited, shirts purchased, retro jerseys photographed, and of course, a little hug-fest with Villa's club mascot! 🦁Naturally, there was a TV commotion 📸📺when the Swedish FPL Podcast visited the village, with TV crews and autograph hunters crowding to get a piece of us. Despite the TV buzz, we weren't allowed into The Holte Pub, where only season ticket holders have access—but it was worth a try anyway… And the stadium, Villa Park? The most powerful thing we’ve ever experienced, like a temple for worshiping the sport we all love, with features such as golden lion statues, mosaic stairs, church windows, the gates of heaven—simply a brick architect's masterpiece. For some, it was standing room in the lower section of the home end, while others sat right at the halfway line in the best seats in the stadium. 🤩When heart-pumping ticket trouble became a reality at the arena, the group could easily conclude that official tickets with serious operators like @OLKASportresor are highly recommended. The match? It ended 1-1 after a beautiful free kick by Stach and a not-as-beautiful but oh-so-important home goal by Tammy Abraham. We just barely made the train home thanks to a minor train delay, and the journey back offered an unexpected encounter with a very strange woman. We’ll leave it at that—those who know, know.😉 The Birmingham trip is best summarized by Ozzy himself, with the song “Crazy Train.” Those of us who stayed in London, hoping Millwall could show why they are third in The Championship, instead saw Portsmouth take three important points after winning 3-1. However, four goals and a pleasant pre-match buildup kept our spirits high. Ticking off the legendary Den from the bucket list was fun for many in the group, and the Millwall slogan “No one likes us – we don’t care” was a common thread from the pub all the way to the stadium. On Saturday evening, we had reserved the pleasant pub Marquis Cornwallis, and here the Millwall group, the Birmingham gang, and those who spent Saturday relaxing in London without football all met up. Food, drinks, quizzes, and a really nice hangout were topped off by us running into one of the world's biggest FPL YouTubers—@FPLMate. An incredibly nice guy, one of perhaps 5-6 people in the world who make a living entirely on FPL content, and who could hardly believe he didn't just run into Swedish FPL content creators, but an entire travel group of 50 Swedish FPL listeners in a London pub. I think we made his night as much as he livened up ours. Many in the group then set their sights on the London night once more, and, according to rumours around town, the partying was of the highest calibre. To be honest, Sunday morning was a bit sluggish for some in the group, but when the sun peeked out and the buildup for the trip's main event, Tottenham vs. Arsenal, kicked off, there was a great atmosphere around the stadium. Those of us who hold Liverpool FC in our hearts also brought a 1-0 overtime victory into the stadium just as we walked through the gates. Hugs and big smiles for my part. As usual, the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium offered a magical atmosphere; sure, it cost 11 billion to build, but few new stadiums are more optimized specifically for football than this one. A 5 out of 5 rating! We sat high up in the stands for this match, and it was actually really cool to get a unique perspective on the play. Many in our large party supported Arsenal, but we also had a group of Spurs supporters. Someone was going to get to celebrate, and this time it was the Arsenal fans. The final score was 4-1, and we saw, among other things, the Swede Viktor Gyökeres score two goals. After the match, the group split up; one gang went to the pubs around the Emirates to celebrate the Gunners' victory, and I took a group to another recurring feature of our podcast trips—the Italian restaurant DeGusto in Camden. It was appreciated to break up the pub food diet with some Italian food and a glass of red wine. Monday meant the journey home for everyone, albeit at slightly different times. However, we can summarize another incredibly successful Podcast Trip with eleven goals in three matches, newfound friends, and memories for life. As usual, not even a fraction of everything that happened fits into a post like this (even though this became quite long, sorry about that). But the trip also included, among other things: a children's party, an unpaid pub tab, two stray portions of fish & chips, axe throwing, darts, two glass thefts, a denied bar order, a celebrity, a beer glass full of wine, Gert Fylking's football-playing son, an oversized backpack, a newly divorced man from Västmanland on Tinder, a fox, a fox transport, a Danish Millwall-fan's head hitting a metal wall, a saving "Ginger from Sweden," a saving Swede's goal celebration, a witch, five empty Jäger bottles, a desperate woman looking for company, a Harry Kane documentary in an Arsenal pub, an engagement party, a presumed baby-making session in the ladies' room, an ejected away supporter, a converting son, a fire drill, and a sharp look from a head of referees. A big thank you to my partners in crime, Alex and Stefan, for another magical Podcast Trip. It went really well, and we had a blast. Podden Away celebrated five years in the best possible way. A big thank you also to everyone who was on the trip—you are the best! We hope you got the experience you were hoping for. We go again!

More confident now @FPLMate? ❤️🤍❤️

Time to for an unusual update in English. Fifth time in London with our listeners and during the warm up for tomorrows North London Derby we run into one of the nicest content creators out there, bless you @FPLMate 🤩❤️⚽️

Platserna blir färre och färre, se till att säkra upp din plats på årets fetaste FPL event i Stockholm tillsammans med @PoddenFpl - vi syns väl där?

Always remembered. Never forgotten. The Flowers of English football. The Flowers of Manchester. 🌹❤️

Detta vill man inte missa!!! Ses vi den 21/3?

Fokusera på att möta dagens United 🤣

@AlexStrombergg Wow, skaplig skåpställning i första matchen

Dagens lottning är ute och det är ju såklart svårt att få en bra lottning. Didde har en tuff match mot rutinerade Jelle Klaasen, och kan möta på många tuffa i sextondel och åttondel. Men kan man slå Ross Smith på Ally Pally kan man slå de flesta. Nu hoppas vi på en bra dag! 👊🏼❤️

@AlexStrombergg van Schie utslagen dessutom!

Fjärde raka vinsten! Didde spelar otroligt fint just nu 😍 Nu kör vi hela vägen! 👏🏼
