Yeah, you can replace a FD team. Let me know when you want in and who ya want to take over. Theirs currently no sacked managers but a lot of ones not active so pick one of them and let me know and I'll sack them.
I applied for the winning team today.
But who's not active anyways..
Along with the winning team, Looprevil, Lee FC and Workington.Quote:

Right, you have access to them now. Keep active;)Quote:

The rats must have been saving the money up for you:D.Quote:

0-0 at the Showgrounds tonight. Disappointed not to have won the title but I'm happy just to be going up to where I belong. I'll get revenge on BGR next season when we finish above them;).
Being in Finland all week has seriously affected all my sides in preparation and team selection..still kept up the wins against UCD at The Empress though :)
Out of my Xpert Cup, unable to start a new season in my own league, lost 6-0 in another cup game in another league by default, lost 3-1 and my 8 game unbeaten record in the other league.
Really poor season since Pants again. We've stagnated and gone stale in the last two seasons and will struggle next season.
Looking forward to renewing my rivalry with yourself dfx...the real Rovers back in the top flight...well deserved:p.Why's that?:confused:Quote:

That is at least the second time you've reported something like that happening Biscuit. You never thought of starting some games with Killybegs, did you?Quote:

But in this game he got 3-4 performance points in 13 mins in a game where other players scored and set up 2?? Just thought twas a lil strange!
I see Sligo are back...just when we got rid of one, the other comes back :p
Hmm. Cobh, Piquet, Nardini, Wome, Haggander, Breen, Davidsson and Silverspjut all increase. Best change report in some time.
Very happy with change report- only one player I thought would increase that didn't. In all honest, I think I would be the favourites for the First Division.:p
Just looking at the other teams there and it's going to be tight. Burton Albion's midfield is all 8 skilled and have a 9 skill striker also. Badger Gravy have a class defence (10skill and 9skill players in there :eek:) and the rest of their team is solid. Fags had a good change report and have bits of quality throughout their team, likewise with the Starlets. Definitely three from those five going up. I fancy us to go straight back up though.:cool:
Good Change report for 18-30 too, first time I've ever been happy with one tbh
I'm having a bit of a clear out now anyway. alot of my star players are getting on in years now and some will have to move aside for younger lads
not agreat change report for me,expected alot better tbh :(:(
Meh, so, so change report really. Bashford was the only drop and that wasn't a visible drop - he was out for a huge portion of the season.
How Mustoe is still a 6 is beyond me, been stuck at 6 for numerous successive seasons now, despite 10+ form each time.
Anyways:
Olausson up to 7
Aboyne up to 10
Ferriera up to 7
McKenzie up to 8
Ward up to 7.
I fully expect to get hit hard with retirements at the end of the coming season. This should be Camoranesi's swansong at 34 years of age. Geladaris, Sunnerborn, and Pearcy all at 32 years of age - this could be the current defence's last hurrah - still strong as fcuk mind you.
Reckon I can defo squeeze another season out of the current squad. ;)
Boco the only real improvement for me, up to 9 skill now. Room for signings now with the two retirements so I will be making a few changes, not loaded with money though.
Risky tactic after working hard to get up? You might have trouble getting points if there's a influx of players without the heart symbol who won't care about a relegation fight...if you're in one.Quote:

Always good to hammer Harps :D
4-0
On my team page it says I'm a TWELVE skilled manager :eek:
But on the Team Statistics page I'm still on 8 one behind Lucanhoop :confused:
EDIT: OK just noticed we all got raised. Lucan you're a 13, Dmans a 12 etc . Must be a new way of calculating it.
Yeah, manager ranking for private leagues is now based over 6 months (like the xpert leagues) instead of three months as it was previously.
What am i? 3?Quote:

Another 4-0 win today against Club 18-30, but still having serious trouble trying to get form to rebound :o
Two wins against top division opposition. :)
Having the same difficulties with the form as well. Going to spend less money on training than I usually would in pre season and see how it goes.
Had to break down and shell out for training, considering its just a week til seasons start and given that form is so low. :oQuote:

Might bring in the cavalry of Valentia, Davidsson, Di Napoli and Silverspjut or might not and leave out a few regulars that played tonight - form is ok, nothing spectacular though
and I didn't even have time to do any tactics;)...maybe that was a good thing judging by the result?:DQuote:

Form still hasn't budged ahead of our match against Sligo though despite winning 3 out of 3 and scoring 14 goals in the process. Kinda worried by our pre season form actually, the last two preseasons we were cr@p and had our highest ever finishes....hope good preseason form doesn't mean the opposite. :o
Sligo Rovers F.C. 0-1 Pants AFC
Cobh Ramblers F.C 0-6 Flynny Alberts
Provisional SRFC 5-1 Club 18-30
Landenstown Forest 3-1 Loftys Lazy 11
Wexford Boys 2-1 Drunk Babysitters
Not too bad of a result for me against a good team. Same amount of chances created, Pants just had a lot more possession. I take comfort in the fact that I've injured Camoranesi too:D. Good to see my fellow promotion(ists...is that a word?:)) getting thumped;) New signing at the Showgrounds tonight too, watch out!
Our win was largely expected in the circumstances, so could afford not playing Maynooth, Piquet, Davidsson or O'Leary.
But Flynny Alberts winning 0-6 at Cobh who are active and are a decent team!:eek:
Sligo signed off in relegation with crippling Valentia. First game back and they cripple Camoranesi:rolleyes: :p
