League Breakdown and Rules
- Spoiler:
- Welcome to the 606v2 Euro Division
Where this will be different to the existing leagues is that the sides involved are entirely made up.
You don't inherit a pre-made European side.
Instead you make your own.
You would initially start with £150m with which to buy a MINIMUM of 15 players and a MAXIMUM of 23 players.
The prices for these players are determined entirely through the transfermarkt website.
http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/
But here's where it gets interesting...the prices that are used on transfermarkt are the minimum you can bid, because other people in the league may also want the same person, so do you risk bidding the flat fee or do you bid more (increased bids have to be a minimum £500k more), the other point of note at this stage is that the maximum value player you can bid on is £15m (though you can choose to bid more than the £15m to get the player)
You then get an ADDITIONAL £50m with which to purchase upto 2 STAR players (min 1), though the maximum you can spend on 1 player is £35m.
This will then result in you having a team of a minimum of 16 players and maximum of 25 players.
You then have to name the team, give it a location where they play their home games and send this via PM to myself and Sodhat before the cut off point (to be decided).
Results of who got which player will then be announced and for those that lost out on players due to being outbid, a second chance is available to acquire players before the league starts, and third etc if needed.
Number of leagues is dependent upon how many players participate.
Foreign transfers.
As the only deciding factor for selling a player is cash then there shouldn't be wrangles over if a TP is accepted or not, if you have the cash you can buy!
TPs though will only go through once a week on a Sunday night for the week ahead.
Max transfer value for bringing in a player from foreign transfers is £15m in Season 1.
You can only make 2 foreign transfers per week.
Domestic transfers
Players can move only twice between domestic clubs per season, once they have moved twice you will have to wait until the following season to sell to another domestic club.
They can though be released or sold to an outside club.
For anyone that joins the league after it begins then the following rule applies for the first two weeks:
Transfers between 2 domestic clubs must be within 20% of each other in total monetary value. So for example if Team A wish to buy a player from Team B worth £10m then they must offer between £8-£12m in player/cash value.
Note that once 2 weeks have passed then the manager is allowed to but and sell as they please but this rule is in place to combat the usual bombardment of silly offers that litter the new managers page.
Injuries
Injuries shall be announced once per week on a Sunday night, they shall consist of 2 players, one based from the team picked for the previous weeks game and one from the entire squad.
Tactics
Each week you shall play 1 game, either league or cup (no more than one game per week though), tactics for this game shall consist of a team sheet, injuries for your team, if your team is home or away and a maximum of 15 bullet point lines worth of team instructions.
As well as the tactical instructions you are allowed 2 extra lines of a team talk to motivate your players, show your worth not just for tactics but how you build players up for the game!
Cash
Each week you receive 2m for a win, 1m for a draw, zilch for a loss.
You also receive an extra £2m per week for ensuring your tactics are handed in on time and you've voted on the results.
Each week there shall be a £1m cash bonus to the team voted best tactics.
Hopefully this is enough to entice to sign up! If you have any further questions then please do not hesitate to ask and I look forward to seeing your team sheets!

Morning,
F #ChelseaRentBoys, great preformance my backside. This was annoying me yday how people saying it was a brilliant preformance when all they did was park the bus!
Stoke get criticised for their tactics & I have an even better example of a team being slated for Parking the bus/playing defensive all match which I will revel if needed too.
Chelsea dont deserve to be in the Final.

Re: The 606v2 Fantastic Fantasy Football Homepage page IX
Is not being able to defend stoically against the proclaimed greatest club side in existence with 10 men and no centre-backs considered a great performance?
Fluid passing and attack attack mentally is not everything about football and is where unfortunately Utd have faltered when they come up against Barca, we cannot outplay, Chelsea realised this and played to the strengths, kudos to them.

Viva, will do.
Hero, It wasnt considered a great performance when Mourinho put 7 defensive players in the Copa Del Rey match last season against Barca. He was slated, Real were slated. Wasnt Mourinho's Inter team slated in the same way in 2010. (funny how its the same coach) but these are the higher matches. Many teams park the bus and are cussed for it, why praise Chelsea?
So sorry I do not consider it a great preformance.

I like good football. Man Utd (on occasions), Man City, Arsenal, Spurs, Bayern, Bilbao are some examples of teams who play good football that is good to watch. Barca lack a Plan B. If the tippy tappy nonsense doesn't work then they are buggered.

Id be happy to win it but I wouldnt be proud of the Final preformance.If Utd had done that in either of the final, I bet you would be stating otherwise.
Each time we lost to Barca I was still proud as we played them at football.
I would hate it if Man United played that sort of football.
People are quick to have a go at Stoke for negative football, Real Madrid, Jose's Inters team, the list can go on.

Re: The 606v2 Fantastic Fantasy Football Homepage page IX
People say Arsenal try to be like Barcelona, Barcelona last night were just like Arsenal. All the possession, none of the penetration.
Don't forget Fabregas diving to win a penalty which Messi missed.
And Nick, if that's your view, then you've lost it. Defending is an art too, it might not be as pretty as Barcelona's style of football, but football isn't about looking good, it's about winning. If you can win while looking good, it's a bonus. No-one can beat Barca at what they do, so you have to adapt your game to stop them. Chelsea did that, with 10 men as well, so they and Di Matteo deserve the credit.
Call it parking the bus all you like, but if they couldn't defend they'd just be a bunch of overpayed Cones for Barca to dribble around.

I think Nick has a point, I know Football is becoming more and more of a business but it still has to entertain the fans thats what they pay for. Ferguson himself has said it's hard to win any trophy but to win it playing good Football, flair, exciting is the best ever.
Credit to Chelsea they defended and defended and defended and got the result they wanted they have made the European Final fair play.
Would you United fans swap seasons with Chelsea? I wouldn't for me the League is the bred and butter and I would always take that above the Champions league.

That depends on the club in question. Chelsea have won the Premier League but not the Champions League. Manchester United have won both. Liverpool have won the Champions League but not the Premier League. It changes their priorities.

Given the choice I'd go for a Champions League win over a Premier League one.
A Champions League wins puts you at the pinnacle of Europe, it provides you with far more opportunity to attract further quality players and increase your fan base.

I dont think you understand my view Marky.And Nick, if that's your view, then you've lost it.
My view is Chelsea being praised so heavily is a joke.
Teams of a high standards have defended against Barca in the past and been criticised heavily.
No, I want the league. I want the league title every season. As Viva said, the league is bred and butter.Would you United fans swap seasons with Chelsea? I wouldn't for me the League is the bred and butter and I would always take that above the Champions league.
Chelsea are in the FA Cup final. Im not too bothered about the FA Cup. The FA have have undermined that themselves.
CL Final, well if Chelsea lose they wont be in the CL next season.
League it always will be for me.

For all of one season. What if you dont qualify? You have to win it each year to stay in it, no ones won it 2 years in a row since new format.A Champions League wins puts you at the pinnacle of Europe, it provides you with far more opportunity to attract further quality players and increase your fan base.
Also, can you explain Man United fan base then as we dont win the CL most years but we DO win the league a lot. Hows the fan base so big???

Easy choice for me. Liverpools. They came from 3-0 down in 45 mnutes.
Chelsea took a slender 1-0 lead with them after 90 mins and got a draw away after 90 mins.
180 minutes of football to win on 3-2 or to recover from 3-0 down in 45 minutes.

This Barca side is probably the best side ever but beating Chelsea has got them to a Final only wheras Liverpool won the cup and that Milan side were very good. Like they say nobody remembers semi finals or losers so I have to go with the Liverpool victory.
Re: The 606v2 Fantastic Fantasy Football Homepage page IX
I might be being biased but ours against Bayern was the best.
Re: The 606v2 Fantastic Fantasy Football Homepage page IX
Yeah I'd have to say that too. Although with 10 men it was impressive. I think they will get mashed in the final from whoever they play, not just because they are mssing 4 of their best players, but also because Bayern and Madrid are so much better than him and will not pass the ball into the net like Barca.

Re: The 606v2 Fantastic Fantasy Football Homepage page IX
I have to say I don't think the game revolved about how good Chelsea played, but how badly Barca played.
Glenn Hoddle made a good point that they need to have a Plan B. Playing 3 at the back played into Chelsea's hands of controlling the middle, especially when Terry was sent off. They should have brought on or had from the start Adriano and Alves. Then use the extra man, for them both to overlap and cut inside.
This would have stretched Chelsea to play further towards either touchline and gave Barca the few yards of space in the centre that would have caused havoc.
Passing it into the net is all very good, but in instances like that when it is 10 v 11, suitable footballing tactics need to be applied. In the end Barca looked like they had no answer to Chelsea's tactics (parking the bus or otherwise).
I would not call it a great performance. I would just say Chelsea did what they had to do. So fair play to them
