TACTICS NEED TO BE IN THIS WEDNESDAY (11PM) FOR THE FIRST WEEK OF SEASON 2.
To Qualify for the £2M Bonus, teams need to post their tactics by Midnight on Wednesday and PM their results by Midnight on Friday
NEW RULES!!!!
- Spoiler:
- 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.
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!

Even when I've faced 18 year old goalkeepers that haven't played a league game in real life or in a fantasy game no-one has ever paid attention to it, I've stated tactics that would really unnerve the keepers, not a blind bit of difference.

And they play Schurrle there too. I think Schurrle is ahead of Reus in the Germany pecking order

Think it was, there was him (ok he's now 22) and another week I faced someone who was on a reserve keeper and tried to unsettle them to no avail.

I had never heard of him and was frantically trying to buy another keeper
My PR machine earned it's money that week.
And TSC - Reus is a really good player, one of the best wingers in Europe last year. I was just saying where I thought Low puts him in his pecking order. I think Reus will get on the pitch, but only as a sub

Yeah, I wasn't meaning you didn't have any love for Reus, I was meaning Low didn't have any love for Reus. Mind you, he has a "good" selection dilemma as he has so many good players.
"German football magazine Kicker says Japan star Shinji Kagawa is set to join Manchester United for 15m euros with the deal almost complete."
Come on face.

Re: Homepage XV
The fact that this weekend even with a depleted squad of no Bayern players and he still didn't make the starting eleven would suggest to me he's not that high in the pecking order, though he did get his name on the goalsheet so that might have an effect.

To be honest, the type of player depends entirely on your formation, what players are playing in other positions and their strengths and weaknesses, your intended style of play.

Strootman, M'Villa, Luuk de Jong, Dempsey, Nene, Khedira, Gourcuff (those are the ones I can see playing there) unless I have 4-3-3 with Khedira, M'Villa and Strootman behind and Cardozo up front. Rather than a 4-2-3-1 which I was driving at above.

Re: Homepage XV
This would change depending upon the opposition, but purely hypothetically, I would one of two teams from your squad:
Your full-backs are very attacking, so you need to play two holding CMs IMO otherwise you will be exposed. When you want to dominate midfield, I would play 3 there, with Reus and Nene either side of de Jong (both are players who will get in and support the main striker).
When you are up against a weaker midfield, then you can play the extra forward.
I would actually play Nene ahead of Schurrle atm. Schurrle is a good player, but he has his iffy moments (which is due to inexperience). Nene has been the best player for PSG this season and is severly underrated in these leagues.
Given
Lichtsteiner--Cahill--Sakho--Adriano
Strootman--M'Vila--Khedira
Reus---de Jong---Schurrle/Nene

Also, I think it's a flip of a coin between M'vila and Strootman atm.
M'vila is the better player, but his form is poor, whereas Strootman's is good.

Those idiots at Three have replied back to me saying, "Unfortunately following Samsung's recent announcement, the Pebble Blue Samsung SIII will not be available when expected".
Even though yesterday Three said that I will get my phone on time.
