Stats & Fantasy
Your weekly kickabout has no story — no records, no rivalries, nothing to chat about.
Capo gives you Fantasy Premier League energy — except it's your actual mates.
Every Stat That Matters
Capo tracks everything that matters in your 5-a-side — and turns it into something worth looking at. Goals, wins, losses, clean sheets, appearances, streaks, form: all recorded the moment you save a match result, updated automatically in the background. No manual entry, no spreadsheet, no waiting for the one person who messages the group at midnight with the scores.
What you end up with is a proper individual record for every player in your group. How many games has Dave actually played this season? What's his win rate? Is he genuinely good, or has he just been lucky with teams? The numbers are all there — updated after every match, and impossible to argue with. Mostly.
Goals, wins, clean sheets
The basics — but tracked properly, not scribbled on a napkin.
Streaks and form
Hot streaks, cold patches, and "who's actually turning up".
Fantasy-style points
Points per game, total points, title races — the full FPL experience.
League Tables That Write Themselves
Every time a match is completed, Capo updates the league tables — season standings and all-time. No spreadsheets. No arguments about who forgot to update it.
Half-Season
Mid-season standings so form changes get their own chapter.
Full Season
The title race. Points, goals, clean sheets — the whole picture.
All-Time
Your group's permanent record — who's actually been the best, ever.
Points are configurable per group — see the full breakdown below.
The 5-a-Side Fantasy Points System
Every match you play earns fantasy points. The defaults reward showing up, winning and keeping clean sheets — not just scoring goals.
Why team results, not goals? The original Thursday night group tracked goals for years — and it turned forwards into goal-hangers. “The Barry factor,” as founder Ian Strang calls it. The fix: a points system where showing up, winning, and keeping clean sheets matter more than individual output. Your group can adjust every value — or switch goal points on if you prefer.
Default Points (configurable per group)
Heavy win & loss penalties
Losing 7-1 costs more than losing 2-1. Heavy-win bonuses and heavy-loss penalties keep games competitive — even when one team is already behind.
Fully configurable
Every point value can be adjusted by the organiser. Want +5 for a win? Want goals to count double? Set it up once and Capo applies it to every match going forward.
The Race
A cumulative points chart showing the top five players over the season — like a Premier League title race graph, but for your group. Watch the lines cross, gaps open, and comebacks happen in real time.
It's the view that turns a table into a story. When two players are neck-and-neck going into the final few weeks of the season, the Race is what everyone checks. The table tells you who's winning. The Race shows you how it happened.
Season Wrapped
Spotify turned a year of listening into a story everyone shares. Capo does the same for your 5-a-side. When your season (or half-season) wraps up, every player gets their own personal recap — swipeable story slides covering their numbers, their best month, the teammate they win most with, the nemesis they still can't beat, and whether they made the Team of the Season.
Every slide comes with a shareable card — one tap and it's in the group chat. And when the season ends, Capo emails everyone their Wrapped, so even the mate who never opens the app gets pulled back in by the one recap a year that's actually about them.
It's the payoff for every stat Capo tracked all season — and the closest your kickabout gets to an end-of-season awards do without hiring a function room.
Team of the Season
Capo picks a best XI from your group and lays it out on a pitch — club badges and all. Nobody actually has a position in 5-a-side, so each line is picked by the stat that matches the job: goals up front, goals-against at the back, fantasy points in midfield. Picked by the numbers, start to finish.
And it's live all season as a “Team of the Season so far” — so every match can shuffle the XI, and everyone can watch their case build (or collapse) week by week. The formation even matches how your club actually plays.
There's a shareable card too, for the week your mate finally gets dropped from a team that doesn't exist. Somehow that stings more.
Rivalries & Head-to-Head
Fantasy Premier League energy — but it's you. Every player profile shows your win rate against every regular opponent in the group, including your nemesis (the one you just cannot beat) and your favourite opponent (the one you always seem to). Ten years of “I always win when we're against each other” finally meets the actual numbers.
Then there's the compare screen: pick any two players and see their careers side by side — games, goals, points, win percentage, goal difference, minutes per goal and points per game, with the better number highlighted on every row.
Underneath that, the bit that ends pub debates: their record when they face each other, and their record when they're on the same team. Some pairs should clearly never be separated. Others should never be picked together again. Now there's proof either way.
Beyond the League Table
The table tells the obvious story. These features tell the one people actually argue about in the pub.
Power Rating
Your average fantasy points per game, weighted for recency. Play well recently and it climbs. Have a rough patch and it drifts down — slowly enough that one bad night doesn't undo everything. This is also what the AI uses to balance teams.
Chemistry
Capo tracks who you win most with — and whose team you consistently end up on the losing side with. When someone insists they're the reason their team keeps winning, you've got the actual numbers.
Feats & Records
All-time records for your group — most goals in a game, longest win streak, longest unbeaten run. Break one and it shows up in the match report for everyone to see.
Legends Hall of Fame
Season champions and runners-up, preserved forever. Your group's permanent honour roll — who won the title each year, all the way back to your first season.
Fair stats for goalkeepers: If someone plays in goal for a game, Capo excludes that match from their goals-per-game and scoring rate calculations. Goalkeepers don't get penalised for doing the job nobody else wanted. Their outfield numbers reflect outfield games only.
Why your group will love it
Strava turned solo runs into stories people share. Capo does the same for your football — every week becomes an episode in a series, not a standalone.
When there are real numbers on the line, even a mid-table scrap feels like it matters. People turn up more consistently when they're chasing something — a title push, a personal best, a goal streak they don't want to break. Stats give them that reason to care, week after week.
Bragging Rights
Tables don't lie (mostly). When you're top, everyone knows it. When you're not, you've got something to chase.
Real Rivalries
The "race" makes every week count. Even a mid-table scrap for 5th feels like a cup final when points are on the line.
League Identity
Your kickabout stops feeling like "just Thursday" and starts feeling like a proper league. Because it is one.
Motivation
People turn up when they're chasing something. A title push, a personal best, or just not being bottom. Stats give them that.
Result:
Tables don't lie. Neither do your mates.
