New League Squad Limit Rules to be introduced!

From season 4, there will a 25 man league squad limit from which you will be able to select players to play in league games.

These will be the 25 players from which your injuries will be drawn so as to prevent managers from the bigger, richer teams from diluting the risk of their stars picking up injuries.

You will be able to take players in and out of your League 25, but from the point that injuries are drawn that is the 25 that you must select your league team from. Injuries will now be drawn on Wednesdays

Your overall squad can remain larger than 25, but your League eligible 25 must be shown separately. Players outside of the 25 can still play in cup and European competitions.

Catch y'all tomorrow wankstaz.
And nick accept my offer you pandejo.

Do people read tactics?

Why would Fellaini have been contsantly outnumbered when I was playing 4-4-2 and had given a direct instruction to Bonucci to step into midfield to support Fella.

Forlan not being good enough in AM I could accept
Bonucci not being good enough to step forward - fair enough.

But being outnumbered?????????

I can see why Viva's 4-6-0 was so successful now. The more you play in midfield, the better.

bigfellas, I did read tactics. If Bonnucci did move forward into midfield then it would have left you short in defense, and Forlan as an AM wouldn't have tracked back enough.
I didn't think the 4-6-0 was successful.

why Viva's 4-6-0 was so successful now

Yeah but mine wasnt so that says something.

Afro, non of that was from me star so direct it elsewhere. I think my comments were fair

Viva got a win with 4-0-6 and I get a loss with 4-2-4. Flip up Poopie

Wasn't just aimed at you. The one thing I have learnt in this league is that if you have fewer players in midfield than the other team you are done for, regardless of whether you outnumber them in other positions or if you have tactics that bypass the midfield altogether.

And Bonucci could step forward as they were playing 1 up front and two wingers.

Nick - your explanations made sense. I can accept them.

It pretty much was aimed at me. I think in any game, you need to have 2 central midfielders always, or one DM and two AMs, it would get slaughtered IRL.

If Bonnucci does step forward, it leaves their striker one on one with the other centre back, they'd get chances.

No it wasn't Mouse. There were other similar comments.

I think the comment should not be just being outnumbered based on what you were saying. The explanation should be that Forlan didn't track back support his midfield partner.

How about having 2 strikers, 2 wingers and an AM who doesn't track back. Surely that is going to get goals against a flat back four as it outnumbers it 5v4?

whats going on?

Forlan? can i buy him?

I'm sorry, maybe I didn't explain it enough. But that's basically it, Forlan didn't track back.

Aogo and Defour would get back and help out?

Aogo & Defour were busy being 3v1 against Fellaini to get back and help out weren't they?

BTW - I'm not being angry. I don't care that much as I don't manage Sunderland anymore.

Just want to highlight where some of the voting explanations don't make sense. I feel I can now without fear of reprisals in future votes.

When Blackburn attack, they'd drive forward and be three on one against Fellaini, or two v one at least.

When Blackburn defend, they'd help out.

If everyone else has the same opinion as me, then surely it must make a bit of sense?

I understand what you are saying and I don't disagree with the result. The support Fellaini would have got would not have been good enough.

In both cases you state above, Fellaini would have had help from Forlan and Bonucci as that is what they were instructed to do. Being outnumbered wouldn't happen. Being outclassed because I had a CB and a forward doing things they aren't good at would.

Viva

Seems like I'm out again for 12 weeks oh well at least I won the cup.

I played 4-6-0 against Sunderland and I still don't know what the result was, did i win?

It was a 1-1 draw Viva

Thank you Afro, to be honest looking at the teams I didn't expect your team to be as strong as it was and thought I may lose. But I think it was the heart and iwll to win that won it for me rather then skill ability.

My midfield must have been shocking.

I had 5 (4 internationals and a Spain U21) versus your 4 (one of whom was an Everton ressie/youth team player IRL) and you still beat me

This is why I struggle to keep up with the reasoning behind voting sometimes.

I am glad you won though. If I hadn't been able to win, I would have supported you

New Sunderland page up

Ill add 3m for being Runner up in the cup

And ill try and get my votes up tomorrow if i can. Training on new Software tomorrow as well so will more than likely be on later tomorrow.

Thats Furious League for you, I don't know how it worked. Being an ex-manager on here you can sell your story to The Independant and tell the public what really went on, how you felt dring T.P when certain people (Including me acted), how the voting went, any dodgy deals that went via PM or anything else which highlights the dirty, dark world of pretend managing and you won't have any backlash.

Thanks, Afro you have been a mentor to me during your reign on 606 and 606v2, I salute you.

What the frick just happened??

Unlucky Viva, dont rush your recover as it will only make it worse

Good luck with Sunderland Andy.

You have some big shoes to fill. The last 2 Sunderland managers are legends of the pretend management game, so expectations start high!

What happend where? In real life or here?

Yes I got to take it easy, I probably extend my recovery after Christmas just to be 100% fit, i think not warming up properly played a part.

Oh yeah do doctors put your foot up thier arse when examining the damaged knee? lol it happend to me.

Did he/she have his/her trousers on or off?

Oh yes Andy, the fans are used to top level performances and you need to bring that straight away. It will be hard to replace Viva and Afro but if anyone could do it, it would be you.

Afro will you still be around for the prediction game and the mindless mum bashing?

Yeah.

I'll still pop my head in every week for the predictions.

I want to build up a pot of pretend money to bring with me into a new job should I ever get back into the pretend management game.

It was a she from Scotland quite preety but sadly she did have her trousers on.

I think that is okay.

When does voting close for current league matches?

Rugby World Cup starts on Friday but when do England play thier first match? Don't really care about Rugby but gunna jump on the band wagon and hype of World Cups. Wilkinson is in the squad? England Semi Finals wild prediction.

Anybody recommend a good knee support? Playing my 1st game back to footie since I got a knee injury tonight but it still dont feel 100% think I need to put some support on it.

Oh yeah do doctors put your foot up thier arse when examining the damaged knee? lol it happend to me.

Viva got bottom sexually harrassed If you didnt enjoy it I suggest you go make a complaint and sue.

All votes are now in for the week 8 league matches, so voting is closed.

Andy - it's all yours for calculating the results.

England first world cup game is Argentina on Saturday morning - 9.30am

lol Nick no I won't sue NHS has enough problems as it is.

Ok so if I got 4 wins 2 draws and 2 loses does that mean I won the game? Both of the games I only lost by 1 goal.

I'll be setting my alarm for the match.

Yep. I think that will be a win Viva.

But you can't add your win bonus until Andy has confirmed the results

viva voted me to draw so I get a draw

Andy wanna speed up the process?

Nick - by my calculations it was 4 Everton wins, 3 draws and 1 Spurs win

That's an Everton win

Higuan and Di Maria and an own goal 3-1 Argies
Who needs Carlos Tevez????

Russia 0-0 Republic of Ireland HT

Feel free to thank me for score updates

Thanks for the score updates Nick.


I'm expecting it to be a two horse race between Everton and Liverpool going into the last league games with Everton 1 point ahead and a better GD.

Everton playing Birmingham, Liverpool playing Tottenham.
