For a short time only you can get £50 of free money when you open an account using the link below.
Give it a go, you won’t regret it!

There doesn’t seem much interest for this platform on here which surprises me considering it is a mixture of football, betting and to a certain extent fantasy football.
Should also add that in addition to the free £50 if you use the link above there is a £500 money back guarantee if you don’t like the platform.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/mar/06/football-index-customers-furious-market-crash
Thousands of customers with money trapped in Football Index, the self-styled “stock market of football”, have reacted with fury to significant changes to the site’s terms and conditions, which prompted the latest in a series of crashes in its market when the site reopened for trading at 7am on Saturday.
...
The latest crash is the most significant to date and came after the firm gave its users 28 days’ notice of a dramatic reduction in dividend payments. Trading in shares was suspended before the announcement until Saturday morning, when the price at which most shares in the top 200 players on the index could be sold dived to 1p or 2p, with no sell price at all available for many more.
Good luck to those who got involved. Hope most got some of their money out.

There's been stories circulating on Twitter for some time that Football Index should be avoided, & it looks like they were right.
Hopefully Matt50 escaped unscathed.
google "Football Index Scam" & scores of results come up.
This one was in January;

Short version?
WARNING: This is THE most deceptive/dangerous gambling product I have ever seen! If you want to lose a few quid a week in a fun fantasy football game, enjoy it. However, under no circumstances put any significant amount of money in there. If you have any significant money in there get it the f@*k out now, as the risk of losing it all is significantly greater than you perceive.

It looked horrid from the start, but thankfully very few seemed interested here.

yeah it seemed to me a question of when the exit strategy would happen and not if. A lot of the people that used the product seem very cultish. Any criticism was shouted down. And of course the more people that signed up was better for them as the values rose. Similar parallels with some crypto bubbles here.

Was a Ponzi scheme sadly in all but name
I give it a try a while back but luckily escaped without any damage it just didn't feel right (as well as the obvious)
The almost cult-like tweets and pushes about it (for example this thread) also fired warnings
