I like him because he looks like my uncle lol

by TwisT Tue May 01, 2012 5:11 pm

He did look like he was let out on day release, and they had wheeled him in "Hannibal Lector" style. And I am a fan of his.....Woy's not Hannibal's.

by TwisT Tue May 01, 2012 5:43 pm

Question

Mamadou Sakho.....Branislav Ivanovic......Gary Cahill

Who would your CB pairing be? I really would like to make Sakho my captain, but I think Ivanovic and Cahill would work well as a CB (former Chelsea) pairing.

Got Vidal, Strootman and Khedira playing in front of them. It is like a wall at Real Ale.............no balls shall pass Wink

by Trebs Tue May 01, 2012 5:43 pm

Play Sakho and Cahill CB with Ivanovic RB

by TwisT Tue May 01, 2012 5:47 pm

I like Lichtsteiner as my RB though. It gives me pace on the FB position, with Adriano on the other side.

Strongly thinking about playing 5-3-2 next season, because of the strength of the teams I will be with.

------------------Ivanovic---Cahill---Sakho---------------
Lichtsteiner-----------------------------------------Adriano
-------------Khedira----Strootman----Vidal--------------

by Trebs Tue May 01, 2012 5:55 pm

Too defensive IMO. Something like that you need more attacking mids.

For me that would be too defensive, unless you had two world class forwards

Exposed on the wings.

by TwisT Tue May 01, 2012 7:28 pm

Lol alright alright....it was only a thought!

by Trebs Tue May 01, 2012 7:33 pm

I think if you went for the back five, Vidal and Khedira DM and got an attacking mid who could run about the place it could work though.

by TwisT Tue May 01, 2012 7:39 pm

How many players, from the original squad draft picks, do people still have?

I have 3 Shocked

I think this proves that the whole draft picking was a very good idea. We was worried that people would just stick with who they picked, but there have been a lot of chances per team.

by TwisT Tue May 01, 2012 7:41 pm

I have Eric Lamela or Dempsey.

I have 13

by The Special Juan Tue May 01, 2012 7:44 pm

Of course not Laugh

Change scares me. To be honest though, there's not many deals I'd do anyway.

by TwisT Tue May 01, 2012 7:48 pm

I like playing around with my team and coming up with different formations. With my squad I don't have that many! Laugh

I have 8

And yes they are mostly Norwich players Rolling Eyes

I have 12 players from the side I took off fan, it's been all change since I got here though, thoughts on my dealings to date?

I like what you are doing tbh, especially when you pay me £23 million for Cabaye Laugh

by Trebs Tue May 01, 2012 10:11 pm

I think Cabaye is world class, he'll get a move to a big club this summer.

Buy seriously, Cabaye aside, what are your thoughts?

Cabaye is a great player.

I think you have dealt very well, building a nice squad considering what you started with.
You are dealing better than me although that ain't exactly hard

by Trebs Tue May 01, 2012 10:14 pm

Mate, I'll help you out with a good deal, I gave you a nice one before with Cabaye

That Cabaye deal was like the only player I've made a profit on Laugh

I'm ok atm, I'm happy with my squad

by Marky Wed May 02, 2012 7:29 am

Pinto, Montoya and Armero are the only three original ones left in my squad!

My backup GK, backup RB and backup LB.

Rules changes for Season 2

Tactics & Voting

Tactics and voting are to be in promptly on the dates required.
If these deadlines are not met then the following happens:

1. The offending party receives a -1 goal to their score immediately.
2. If after 24 hours they have failed to still hand in tactics/votes then they receive a default loss for that week.
3. If this happens on a regular basis the manager shall be removed from their position.

If there is a valid reason as to why you cannot provide tactics or votes on time then this must be informed to the league runner as soon as possible.

Media Page

Each week 5 questions are provided by reporters, everyone has the opportunity to answer these for a 1m boost to kitty.

Manager of the Month

Every month there is a poll put up for manager of the month (the previous month's winner is excluded), the winner gets to use a magic sponge on a player that is injured at any point the following month to recover that player for that week.

Also to note the cash injection for the team pre season will be as follows:

League Winner: 10m
Teams placed 2nd to 4th: 5m
Teams placed 5th to 8th: 20m

The leagues for next season will be split so that the top four clubs from each league this season will go into The Premier League, the bottom four clubs from each league will go into the Championship.

Morning.

If there is a valid reason as to why you cannot provide tactics or votes on time then this must be informed to the league runner as soon as possible.

Hero, I have explained my problem several times. What day will Tactics need to be in for??

Great idea with the Magic Sponge, well done I like that.

by TwisT Wed May 02, 2012 9:13 am

After next weeks games, I will be posting an updated squad listing on a new Transfer Confirmation page ready for Season 2.

That way a list of players, and players transfered after the list was made, will be in one place. Therefore there should not be any excuse of making TP bids for players already in the league.

by **Hero** Wed May 02, 2012 9:14 am

Tactics will still be required to be in on a Wednesday and votes to be in by Friday.

by FIFA Diva Wed May 02, 2012 9:37 am

Morning

Happy Birthday David Beckham! cake

by nick_fury Wed May 02, 2012 9:39 am

Hero. start looking for a manager, get a waiting list up. Unfortunately I cant commit to wednesdays so it will probably be by the time four/five weeks have passed the following would of happened:

1. The offending party receives a -1 goal to their score immediately.
2. If after 24 hours they have failed to still hand in tactics/votes then they receive a default loss for that week.
3. If this happens on a regular basis the manager shall be removed from their position.

by FIFA Diva Wed May 02, 2012 9:43 am

Only one more day to go for the unveling of the Samsung Galaxy 3 Very Happy

by nick_fury Wed May 02, 2012 9:47 am

I know Viva, I cant wait to check it out.

by **Hero** Wed May 02, 2012 9:47 am

We can't alter a system just for one person when everyone else doesn't have an issue with it sorry Nick.

by nick_fury Wed May 02, 2012 9:53 am

Oh thats fine Hero. I mean it was never like it was on Friday for how long through how many league with no problems. Its not broke so why fix it?
Just giving you a heads up to find a manager.

by **Hero** Wed May 02, 2012 9:54 am

But you knew from the start of this league that it was on a Wednesday and signed up for it.

by nick_fury Wed May 02, 2012 9:59 am

I actually didnt until first week of handing in. I wasnt around alot when you set this up due to work, If you recall I was one of if not the last persons to hand in List of Players for Draft. Im pretty sure everyone was waiting for me, people were joking round giving me 12pm deadline etc and it may of been Afro, Sod, TSC (whoever was helping out) said get it in by 5pm.

If I was aware I would of said something, most likely along the lines of...Its not broke so why fix it?

by TwisT Wed May 02, 2012 10:02 am

It was agreed for Wednesday as there are a few of us that had WWA shows to write, which was also on Friday. Like Hero said though, it has always been Wednesday for this new league.

What is the problem with you not being able to post it on Wednesday but being able to if it was Friday? I mean you haven't PM'd results on a Friday either...........which is the same time that you would prefer to get your tactics in Erm

by nick_fury Wed May 02, 2012 10:07 am

TwisT, ive explain several times. Midweek is my busiest time at work. On Friday afternoons Groundsmen/Greenkeepers/Schools/Councils are all either finishing early and gone for the day or will have ordered what they need for the weekend. Thus My fridays afternoons are quiet.

I mean you haven't PM'd results on a Friday either...........which is the same time that you would prefer to get your tactics in

Bonus incentive is lost from not handing tactics in so why vote?

I cant commit to it week in week out as I dont know exactly how busy I will be. So its just a heads up to find a manager.
That is all.

by FIFA Diva Wed May 02, 2012 10:10 am

I don't really like the magic sponge thing, prefer to keep it real as possible.

by nick_fury Wed May 02, 2012 10:12 am

I don't really like the magic sponge thing, prefer to keep it real as possible.

I think its a good idea.

by TwisT Wed May 02, 2012 10:13 am

What do you mean don't vote, just because you don't get a bonus? That is disrespectful to the other guys in the league, where your results could change results (like last week for instance).

Only thing I can suggest is posting lawyers and injuries up of a Friday afternoon. I would be happy to take charge of that for your league next season. That way you will know your injuries, and plan for the following weeks game on Friday. Then just PM it to one of us, and we will post it for you on Wednesday

Im not the only one who does it TwisT. Also When I did vote one week after not the previous two someone figured it out and had a go at me.

That is disrespectful to the other guys in the league

works both ways.

That would be might nice of you. But you dont work around me, that isnt fair.

I am actually trying to build a team for next season and have every intent on being consistant.

by TwisT Wed May 02, 2012 10:35 am

It would not be working round you. It would be just a different date to post lawyers and injuries up. Everyone would benefit, but you more so as you can then take part easily.

If I say I will post lawyers/injuries of a Friday lunchtime (around 1pm) for the following gameweek, would you be able to take part?

by nick_fury Wed May 02, 2012 10:40 am

Most defo. I would know my injury so If I can PM tactics to someone not a problem. PMing tactics would just be a precaution in case I am really busy on a wednesday

There you go then. Sorted.

by nick_fury Wed May 02, 2012 10:59 am

Sorted TwisT.

Pogba is being sold as per lawyer offer. If anyone wants to beat £4m he is yours.
Adel Taarabt will also be departing the club. Should you wish to purchase him the current bid is at £7m.

Please let me know by 12pm.

Sessegnon is also up for sale.

by FIFA Diva Wed May 02, 2012 11:06 am

by FIFA Diva Wed May 02, 2012 11:10 am

Local elections tomorrow, who's everyone voting? Or not voting.

by nick_fury Wed May 02, 2012 11:10 am

TP max is currently £19.5m.

Does that rise every week or every 2 weeks??
