Furious Football Association © : HomePage Season 2, Page 20

I've got 23. I've kept players like Ortega and Jorgenson so they take up injuries etc.

Ditto....got another loan and two releases tonight to get my squad to 23.

Penny dropped why my first teamers kept getting injured. Now hopefully they won't as often and I still only have 2 injuries a week

23 squad 3 out on loan

2 injuries which doesnt really harm you that much, I can deal with two 1st teamers out 3 with europe

He is Hulk, hear him ROOOOOARRR!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17015322

think i may ahve got the 100,000th thousanth post on teh SG section

jsut gonna warn evryoen im bus for teh next few days-weeks so im not going to be on much

If my squad is 32 then if I get maximum injuries and one in midweek i'd still have a squad of 27, different options for different formations.

So often i've seen people change formation due to injuries to both players who play in the same position, that shouldn't happen to me with a squad so big.

Morning

Switcharooney !!!!!!!!!!

Morning...whose a switching?

Switcharooney !!

Watch out for it him

It's Wayne Rooney's new racehorse. I think.

Yes it is, was meant to be kept a secret until he blabbed the name on Twitter.

He imposed a media embargo and then broke it himself yesterday afternoon.

Remains to be seen whether it is any good though.

It was going to be called Oceans Seven, but the name had already been taken ad he had to change it. Apparently Switcharooney and his other horse Tomway are likely to race in April/May time - with nice pink silks picked as Rooney's colours!!!

Crimey, you've not posted tactics for the Champions Cup game, if you do wish to take part v me then please add up some tactics ASAP.
I have posted a team up but that was one done due to you not posting as I don't want to get a bad injury. If you do post I have written different tactics which I did post last night in the admin section to go up.

Just looking at the FEL briefly. Those guys sure are keen on 5/6 player swap deals aren't they?

Yep.

Those leagues tend to see you swapping half your team.

They are all about the big name players and getting as good a starting XI as possible. There is no consideration to unsettling a team, or balance of the team, or players working well together. It's just eleven names.

Your stereotypical unrealistic league

I know, which is something I'm not keen on at all!

I'm trying to build the German national team.
Unfortunately TSC is one step ahead of me as he started as Bayern Munich and YI has snaffled up Hummels.

Deals?

Slow morning and I want to laugh in the face at your putrid offers...Muhahahahahahahahahaha ha

Remains to be seen whether it is any good though.

Its being trained by Tom Dascombe.
Been hearing, based on if they put Switcharooney into the race they have in mind, its going in as 4/1 favorite.
Thats an insider shout from my horsey friend.

What you reckon to this:
Manchester Utd, Manchester City, Valencia, Udinese & Schalke 04 all to win 40/1

I wasn't sure about the whole 'no tactics' route either. It seems to defeat the object of the game, or at least much of the fun.

Seems to be a heavy PL bias to it as well

I can imagine the new Furious League will be a bit similar when we all get new teams after Season 3!

Kevin Prince = What a goal !!! His one earlier in the CL Group stage was better thou.

Morning I'm always up for a deal.

I don't like horse racing it should be banned, horses should only be for petting and feeding them carrots.

And if you are Welsh, using them as a leisure centre.....

Hang on, that is a sheep tied to a lamppost........

Do you often get involved with petting horses?
What about bombing and running?

Im up for deals. I want to change my team to all players available for right cost.

Viva, horse racing is sick!!! No need for it to be bannded, they dont abuse the horses and that one jokey who "whipped" his horse too much last year (i think it was) got done for it and banned. They are well looked after.

I'm not a fan of Horse racing either. I hate seeing them fall over as well. Except for when they squash the little man on their back, that makes me chuckle.

Anyone watch Arsenal last night?

They were appalling, but if RVP had stuck that volley past Abbiati after Henry's flick it would have been goal of the season.

Koscielny looked like the only player who knew how to defend until he got injured too.

I'm sure when they get whipped it does hurt, who wants to be running all day.

I was playing Red Dead Redeption ages ago online and the ones who played it would know how big the maps are and at times you're alone. So as I was travelling with my horse I went passed a little hut and something caught my eye. So I got of my horse and slowly sneaked right outside the door, and there was this guy in the hut with his horse and he killed it, he would whistle for another horse and do the same thing a couple of times, he whistled again but I came running in this time he assumed I was the horse but I got my shot gun out and blam blam blamed him dead and in RDD when you respawn you don't reswpan far from the guy who killed you so I did this about 6 times and then sent him a message; How do you like it? Animal Cruelty is wrong.

Anyone watch Arsenal last night?

I watched the highlights as I had Aussie Rules at 7:30 till 8:30 then Football from 9 till 10.

Sorry Sodhat, it wouldnt of been goal of the season for me, ive seen many better.
Koscielny has improved greatly but I still dont rate him.
Arsenal as a whole are weak. RVP has carried them, if he doesnt leave it will be a miracle.
Arsenal fans really need to come down to earth, even Wenger it trying to manage their expectations and has tried all season yet somehow they still think there a top team.

Zenit v Benfica was a mad match, full of mistakes everywhere.

Do you have Piers Morgan on twitter? The guy is going off on one all the time about how Wenger needs to go, Chamberlain needs to be played in every position, and RVP is leaving.

I know a couple of Arsenal fans quite well and one of them is just resigned to it all now.

Probably not goal of the season, no, I was a bit overzealous there but one hell of a goal nonetheless.

Piers Morgan is one of the biggest fickle ....... fans ever.
Other week 2-0 down to Villa hes saying Wenger out! then they win and hes saying Wenger in.
#WengerInWengerOut started tranding. Do the Wengerokie started going mad too haha, "WengerIn WengerOut thats what the Arsenals about"
#TearsForPiers started trending again last night haha.

I think I may make a Twitter account and ask all the Footballers to give me a RT because it's my birthday. Nick you got any RT from famous people?

Yeah, it's Owen's yard and Dasco trains Rooney's other horse too. The word is that this new horse is much the better of the two, so at least the inside word's agree.

But how can anyone quote a price atm. They aren't going to race for two months yet and they will have idea what other horses will be the race. But guarantee because it is Rooney's and it is getting publicity, the money will come for it.

If it was me I would be keeping it as quiet as possible, keep the money from coming and keep the price as high as possible so I can get more benefit.

Yet, Mike Delinquent had a 7/8 tweet conversation with me.
Keith Gilespie tweeted me and got into mini argument with me.
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson retweeted me.
Tom Cleverley retweeted me.
Some banging hot american girl retweeted me.
Sean Paul retweeted me.

List goes on but there the most recent

We all know why they retweeted you they thought it was David Villas Twitter.

I would love Balotelli to make a Twitter account.

Rooney's and it is getting publicity, the money will come for it.

Course.

Err why?? Better price more people bet on it. Bookies benifit there. Rooney benefits from how well it races, race types entered, finishing places etc.

Get Me Fam!!! Not now, ive been growing my hair.

So you now look like David Villas smaller sister?

morning guys

If people know it's Rooney's horse, they bet on it regardless of how good it is. Therefore, the price is artificially low.

If I owned a horse, I would be betting on it and want the price as high as possible to get as much money back as possible.

I don't give two hoots whether a bookies makes profit from other punters. I just care about my returns being as high as possible.

So you now look like David Villas smaller sister

The sister who has been working at the Pork Pie factory I presume

Let me rephrase that, Who wants to be FORCED to run all day?

If it was up to these horses they would chill out in the fields eating some grass drinking some water chatting up lady horses run up and down when they feel like it rest under a apple tree eat a couple of apples talk with thier mates.

Afro you love to eat food so do I but would you be happy if you were told to eat so much that you felt sick and they forced it on you and when you slowed down eating they would whip your face.

I've been to that Jacamo restaurant!!!

It's no laughing matter guys.

You miss the point.
Rooney will make more money from the horse finishing in good positions rarther then betting on it himself.

If a horse wins the grand national at say 8/1 how much money do you think the owner will have to stake to make what he would actually win in prize money?

There is no need to, a good winner of a horse will make poopie loads for the owner.
Also why bet on your own horse when you will be investigated for allsorts such as abuse or drug us along with many other pitfalls. This then can go a lot deep into the world of racing and "cheaters". There was something with Henderson betting on himself to train 0 winners at Cheltenham one year and somehow he got away with it.

I'm on your side Viva, I don't like Horse racing either.

But the image of someone being whacked in the face when they're eating too slowly made me chuckle. A good analogy, but also hilarious...
