    Note to self: Don't play the Alberts in a friendly with shockingly low form players.

    and it's not gonna be three
    and it's not gonna be four
    it's more likely to be 5-1.

    Anyone any objections to same format for next season(ie. 2 games a week and no cup, 3up and 3 down)? If so, suggest an alternative and see what people think.

    I don't mind either way.

    Almost tradition at this stage that I am proposing one game a week and a cup.

    I would support one league game a week and two cups. I would argue that a 10 team league is too big for one game a week and would take too long to finish, so would shorten it.

    We must defend our last remaining title.

    one league match and two cups sounds good. Might drag on though if you get knocked out of the cup in the first round.
    Everyone needs something to believe in, I believe I'll have another beer.

    Definitely, couple of teams without a manager at present. League details are on the first page.

    Shorten it to what? Get rid of inactive teams is it?

    No problem. You can take over any of:

    Arrow Harps
    Depor Cali Bohs
    Mullaney Bros FC

    Or start with a new team. If you're taking over one of the above then let me know in advance so I can sack their manager.

    That's the hard thing. A 10 team league would last 18 weeks - 4.5 months which is very long and very open to form fluctuations.

    But shortening it by taking out the inactive teams might mean that there's no room for last season's top three to be promoted if divided equally between the divisions.

    I thought it was fine as it is. Pretty much everyone had important games up to the end of the season.

    Jaysus, they're in rag order! I'd rather start afresh with a new team, but I already have a team in the league we have on the Drogs mb so I'm not sure if I'm allowed another one?

    If you get your xpert rating to 95 you would be allowed an additional private league team. Here's the bit from the rules about xpert rating:

    The Xpert rating
    The Xpert rating is a measure of how active and serious you are as a manager. If you place the mouse pointer over the Xpert rating (the horizontal bar) you will see your exact rating.
    The Xpert rating is based on:
    1) You start with 25 points.
    2) Number of days on which you have logged on during the last 3 months (maximum 75 points)
    3) Number of days on which you have issued press statements of more than 150 characters in the Xpert leagues during the last 2 months. Each day is worth 1,5 points. (maximum 30 points)
    4) The number of penalty points you have been given.

    Penalty points are given in the following situations:
    1) A press statement that is deleted in the Xpert leagues by the league admin or a moderator. Gives -5.
    2) If you leave a league (non Xpert league), you get between -6 and -24 points depending on whether you have played for a whole season or pull out during a season or before a season has started. You will get penalty points whether you resign or the administrator sacks you.
    3) In addition we in the X11 team can give penalty points if a user misbehaves or breaks any rules. Between -5 and -50 points.
    You keep penalty points for 3 months.

    It's not that difficult to get your rating to 95. Mine is always higher than that and I don't usually bother with press releases.

    Alternatively you could become a VIP which gives you full team quota (3 months €8, 6 months €14, 12 months €24).

    My rating is currently at 83. So I should have it over 95 before your season starts up again

    I had this in my inbox today;
    Following Wexford Boys's last match, Police have unearthed irregular betting patterns on the result of the game. Several playing staff at the club have been found guilty of betting on the match and as a result, the club have been fined 1 060 000 econ.

    Quite good timing I think!

    Are you still up for joining Windmill Warrior? I don't want to delay the new season too much like. Bluebeard has made the press release now so Flynny's is available if you want it and have brought your rating up.

    Bluebeard's taking over Depor Cali Bohs in the First Division. At the moment(or at least when Bluebeard moves soon) nobody is managing Flynny's. Does anyone want to apply for it? If not, the most successful team will be history
