Best FPL Forfeits – The Internet’s Most Savage

Ahhh yes, the dreaded FPL forfeit. It’s probably around the time of the year where we can begin thinking about the punishment for the loser. In a tradition as old as time, the loser must undertake some sort of punishment for finishing last or what’s the point.

Now this is one thing our cousins over the pond are way better than us at. So, let’s do what we can to try and boost forfeit culture. If your mini-league doesn’t have a forfeit for the loser, then we highlight suggest bringing one in. As this means there is often still loads to play for at either end of the table.

Now if you came here for FPL tips then we recommend checking out our Game Week Tips section. Or if you wanted to check the predicted line-ups, best odds and predictions, then make sure you check out our Predicted Line-Ups Hub here.

Now without further ado, we scoured the internet for the best FPL forfeits we could find, and boy some were bad. Luckily, we’ve split them into different sections, so you can navigate right from the most savage, to the funniest, to the classics.

We will get started right away with the classics. We have left out the really standard ones like wearing a rival kit as quite frankly that’s just not serious enough.

 

The Classics

These are the ones you can do with your mates and have been a staple of FPL forfeits culture for as long as time. They are classics for a reason and always go down a treat.

 

The Fast Food 24 Hour Challenge

 

Now this is one we’ve actually done in one of my mini-leagues, and no it wasn’t me that had to do it…

The concept is fairly simple. The loser must spend 24 hours in a fast-food restaurant of the group’s choice – Normally McDonalds due to the 24-hour nature. The caveat is, for every burger they eat or 6 nuggets etc. This takes one hour off the clock. Naturally this leaves you with a couple different strategies. Do you absolutely ruin your insides and try get out there as soon as possible? Or do you settle in for the long run and actually eat a standard amount of food?

Now while there is no correct answer, it will always provide a good and relatively harmful laugh.

 

The Open Mic

 

This is another classic which definitely lands on the more embarrassing side. Again, the concept is fairly simple. The loser must sign up for an open mic comedy night at a venue near you and perform.

Now for many this would be their absolute worst nightmare. But it’s made even worse by the prospect of all your mates sitting in the crowd and jeering you. While also relatively harmless, this is again, not for the faint hearted. This adds a serious amount of jeopardy to any mini-league and can guarantee some seriously engaged managers in the relegation scrap.

The Spicy Food Challenge

 

Another absolute classic is the Spicy Food Challenge. This doesn’t require much elaboration. The loser must partake in some sort of spicy food challenge either at home or at a restaurant.

The severity of this will be complete luck of the draw but if you are someone who cannot handle spice that well (me) this is far from ideal. I couldn’t even finish my curry the other day so I would be doing everything in my power to avoid coming last. Not to mention the potential throwing up and dribbling on video.

 

Calendar or Photo Shoot

Another absolute classic straight off the shelf.

The calendar shoot is simple. The loser must partake in a calendar shoot for all 12 months then distribute the calendar to all members of the league upon completion.

For extra spice, we recommend either doing it naked or getting it professionally done. Either way this is always a winner and can also give you a good laugh in your day to day routine.

 

 

The Funniest

We now come to the funniest ones we’ve found from around the internet. Some of these may be fringe classics/more well known. But either way these are absolutely hilarious and often convoluted.

 

The Football League First to Score Forfeit

 

Now this one was told to me by a friend of mine who is in a giant 4 league FPL group. The concept is simple but brilliant.

The loser of each league from the previous year must prepare themselves on the sofa for the first day of the football league, as the first goal scored will be very important. Whichever team scores the first goal of the new season in the football league (Prem – League 2) will be where said loser will be taking a trip to.

This is not all, however. The loser must head up to that town, find a pub and sink a designated number of pints before they are allowed to return home. The fun part of this challenge is the permutations you can add on. No phone, higher number of pints, pick the worst pub etc. This one is an absolute belter and can often result in some great stories.

 

The Stuffed Animal/Sex Doll Dinner Date

Another absolute ripper from SportBible. This one is pretty self-explanatory. The loser of the FPL forfeit must make a booking or reservation, at a reasonably nice restaurant of course, for 2 people.

Upon arriving they must place said doll or toy in the other seat and proceed to pretend to speak to them and even order them their own food. ‘Oh, are you not hungry?’.

This is super high on the public embarrassment meter but is also absolutely hilarious. Especially if your mates can get a nearby table to watch you. The one rule is, you are allowed to tell the waiter it’s for a forfeit, so they don’t kick you out. If they kick you out anyway then it is what it is.

 

The Music Video

Now this is one that definitely errs on the side of classic. The loser must recreate a music video of the rest of the league’s choice.

As a result, a large section of the comedic value will come from the selection of the rest of the league. This is absolutely hilarious as it will live digitally and said loser will therefore never be able to escape it.

 

Haircut of Shame

 

Now this one errs on the more savage side. The loser of the fantasy league must have to assume a new hairstyle/colour/shave it off upon losing the league.

This is another iteration where a lot of the humour stems from the selected haircut. Bowl Cuts, England Flags, Dodgy Mullets. Nothing is off limits. Bonus points if they work in a corporate job and have to disgrace themselves in the office.

 

 

The Most Savage

These next few are not for the faint-hearted. We mean it when we say we scoured the internet for the absolute worst we could find.

Quick Disclaimer: We are unequivocally not recommending you partake in any of these. These are purely stories which we have found from around the internet. We’re not sure how many ere even true but please, do not try these at home.

Father a Child/Donate Sperm

We told you they were savage. One report from a Fantasy League in the US claimed that every year, the loser of their league has to go and donate sperm to a sperm bank. Now we did not follow up and ask if any children had been fathered as a result, but even the possibility makes this one of the most high stakes forfeits we’ve seen on the internet. To clarify, we do not condone forfeits such as this.

 

The Tattoo

 

We will bring the tone down slightly with this next one, which is essentially a mix of savage and classic. The loser of the league must get a permanent tattoo, often of the winner, somewhere on their body.

Naturally the severity of this is dialled up or down based on the tattoo itself and the location. But either way, to have something permanently on your body as a result of n FPL league, is a serious amount of jeopardy.

 

The Medieval Pillory

 

You may have seen videos of this one online and some of them have been absolutely savage. The loser is either tied to a pole or locked in a cage while the entire rest of the league pelts him with Sauces, Feathers, Flour, you name it. As a result of being tied to a pole or caged they can do nothing about it. This one ticks all the savage boxes as it can often be painful, uncomfortable and embarrassing. Especially if done in public.

 

The Full Body Wax

Does exactly what It says on the tin. The loser must get a full body wax from their pits to their bum. Facial hair can be kept.

Where this challenge can be particularly savage is if the loser is a particularly hairy bloke. Where not as embarrassing as some of the others, this likely storms into the lea don the pain scale.
