Introduction
There’s 3 polls. These are the normal captain and the transfer in and out polls return.
There’s only 1 vote per poll. That makes sense on the Captain Poll. On the transfer polls I would have liked to have 2 but there’s no obvious way of allowing it so sorry it’s 1 vote only. Just do your primary transfer.
If you’re wildcarding or free hitting or carrying over a free transfer there are options for them as well.
The fixtures
It’s a Gameweek 8 UK Saturday morning gameweek deadline
