Nice short team signing I've made there- 27yo, 7 skill defender for 706 199. Estimated value is 4 452 500. I'll be making a nice profit in one month's time. :D

Yeah, was down as a 6 skill. Got it as a recommended player so was already evaluated. First time I've got something decent from that!Quote:

Was going to play 5-4-1, but then noticed the Blubeard always man marks the highest rated player. Until today seemingly... Probably would have got a draw then. :mad:
Should hopefully get a win against an understrength and out of form Wexford next week.
Loftys Lazy 11 1-1 Patsys Fags
Lost in Portugal 2-0 Wexford Boys
Institute 6-1 Sligo Starlets
Landenstown Forest 0-1 Provisional SRFC :)
Flynny Alberts 3-2 UCD AFC
Brought back in the old guard upfront - a late late show from Davidsson:)
Which swung 1.2m econ away from lucanhoop and into my bank account.:pQuote:

Great performance by makeshift "midfielder" Geladaris - 2 assists. And a vintage performance by Camoranesi. Ward gets his 4th goal in 3 games.
Managed to nab a 31 yo, 9 rated midfielder to fill in for Ferreira while he's out injured.
Forest up next....:o
My Xpert team recieved a youth talent today - 5 rated, 16 yo, defender - worth 16.5 million. Dunno whether to keep him or just cash in. :eek:
€€€€€ :o
Depends on if you have room to improve him or need points now instead
Like I said, its for my Xpert team - not my foot.ie team, so don't worry.Quote:

Good thing about him is though, he's got a "greedy" SQ. And I have to say, I actually like players with that SQ....you can get decent performances out of them even if their form is really low, by throwing in an auld 50,000 win bonus. ;) . Anyways, I think I'm going to hang on to him for a couple of seasons - gonna give him a start in the 5 remaining games of the season....and see how the update goes.
A defeat at home to the Provos:eek: whats the story with this season?, two away wins and a home defeat to the Provos, strange going ons. Pantstitute up at home next maybe things at home might go back to normal will happily keep the good away form though.
Steno I think what's happened is that your home advantage factor has changed. It can change from season to season. Obviously it was something around 100/0 before (;)) and has changed to something like 70/30.
Given we had 60% of possession, stifled the Huggers to one chance and then hit them late on, our record there, put Haggander on the bench and actually won (I still can't believe it), I'd say that percentage is more like 30/70 to explain it.:eek:

You were unlucky alright, but possession tells a different story.Quote:

Only our second win ever at Canalside. I was kinda expecting something from the game, given that Forest were missing Yeats and Suir, but great to get the 3 points.
Dissapointed not to get a win considering my poor start but a draw away to Wexford is a good result.
Badly need a new striker- saw a bargain on a 9 skill midfielder and couldn't resist. Hoping now that someone else makes a bid in the next few hours so I can use the money on a striker.
3 points behind 2nd placed Alberts is hardly obscurity...don't think the rest of us don't notice ;)Quote:

Pantstitute 3-0 Loftys
Delighted with that result, some measure of revenge for the name change debacle. Van der Weijden out for the next couple of weeks, and Rory Aboyne out injured too. Probably have to draft in one of the "kids" to partner Ward against Provos :o
Question: Ward scored twice today, played an 8 rated match and yet his form tendancy has gone down now. Keeper Alvarrson played a 10 best match ever and his FT is down too. Anyone want to hazard a guess as to how they work that out? :confused:
Great win for me. Half a chance now I might avoid relegation. Some of my players even finding decent form.
It's completely random. Some players have it, some don't. Form training should reverse it for a while.Quote:

Valentia's 100th X11 appearance with 5 others. Needed to be six points ahead of Pants ahead of the big games..have to be very happy with 11 wins out of 9 league games and 3 friendlies..
I don't trust you lot, you'll be well armed for your visit - you can play one upfront or Conlon again. You're supposedly our nightmare opponent...you know you're more than capable of beating us :pQuote:

Great result for me, pushing up the table now...come on Rovers!
Only three teams with a plus in the goal difference column. The team in fourth position is thinking only of survival, not of challenging. Most decorated club in league history looking at a relegation fight again.
What a victory. The rams WILL go back up! Nothing will get in the way of it happening
This is the crucial time of the season for the whole league. With the top three playing each other and taking points off each other, the rest of the league are playing each other away from the top three and can collect points that can save or wreck their season. Every side up to now has faced us, then Institute straight after and then Alberts..racking up the defeats.Quote:

can u control your team mid game??
was logged in at 7.30 but couldnt get to game, or is that not possible.
What a result for me! I'd have been very happy with a draw. Defence was in fantastic form and despite giving away lots of possession I managed to have much more chances. Avoiding relegation really looks possible now. :)
One upfront ;)Quote:

Huge result at the Canalside and possibly LiP only getting a point at Starlets another big result.
Can't complain about my result really, just need the others to slip up to move up the table.
