Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.It’s only moving a few brightly-coloured shirts around on a screen every week but the popularity of Fantasy Premier League has rocketed in the last few years, with millions of managers taking part worldwide every season.
The likes of Mohamed Salah and Kevin De Bruyne are becoming just as popular for their fantasy points-scoring as they are for their displays on the pitch, while the Premier League’s official game has helped to spread the league’s popularity around the globe.
Does it matter in the grand scheme of things? No, but it does offer us all another way to enjoy the weekend's top-flight action, making every game that little bit more interesting to those who play it.

Our fantasy articles have proved popular over the years, so I also write a newsletter every week with tips on how to do well during the forthcoming gameweek. Hopefully, once all is said and done, it can help you beat your mates and colleagues in your mini-leagues.
I'll be hand-picking players for each week's round of fixtures, building a weekly best XI, offering advice on captaincy, differentials and chip strategy, plus breaking down the fixture runs to keep us all one step ahead of the rest.
If you're wondering why I'm worth listening to, I've a decent record of finishing in the top 50k in the world in each of the last five seasons, with a 2.5k rank in 2020-21.
