Important End of Season information -- please read

STAR PLAYER BIDS ARE OPEN

Star Player bids will commence Wednesday (15th), and run to Friday (17th) at midnight, when bidding is closed. Who got who will be posted on Saturday all being well - and assuming it can't be done earlier. If you miss out initially, there will be a second round bidding process and you may make another bid on a player. All bids will be sealed and PM'd to Hero and sodhat. It should be made clear that you cannot make a big bid on a Star Player, and then not have the cash all at once. All money must be paid immediately, or you miss out. We aren't doing IOU's on it, and that applies to everyone.

To qualify for the second round you must have submitted a first round bid - you can't just wait and see what's left. If there are exceptional circumstances as to why you missed the deadline you may appeal to the runners, but these circumstances absolutely do not include "I was playing Ultimate Team for 4 days with the curtains closed."

Can't do til later personally, no pc at work

by Bull Fri 24 Aug 2012, 9:32 am

has anyone seen that some one on wiki edited Hector Herrera's page and put he transferred to United on the 31st of August Laugh

by FIFA Diva Fri 24 Aug 2012, 9:40 am

Morning

Had Sunny D after 14 years, what have they done to it? No sugar, no taste, it's water with a little orange flavour.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 10:57 am

Gregers I will not be requiring Biglia until he actually signs for Norwich, if he does

by Gregers Fri 24 Aug 2012, 11:07 am

Left you an offer olly.

Azpillicueta signed for Chelsea Yahoo

by **Hero** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 11:09 am

Hearing a few rumours that you're getting Hulk this weekend too.

by **Hero** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 11:33 am

I've just put together the bids for the 2nd round of SPs,
I have the following four people bidding...

Russell
Afro
Bull
Fernando

If you did bid in the 2nd round and your name isn't above then forward me the original message that included your bid asap.

by Marky Fri 24 Aug 2012, 11:35 am

Julio Cesar just a medical away from joining QPR.

Only 32, on a free transfer, that's a superb signing.

by FIFA Diva Fri 24 Aug 2012, 11:35 am

Can anyone bid in the second round or is it just people who didn't get players in first round?

Nice faith in Rob Green they have...

by **Hero** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 11:36 am

Only those that didn't get one in the first round.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 11:41 am

James Vaughan is on his way to Huddersfield from us it seems. Hopefully it means another striker will come in, we need one.

I must admit I am not a Vaughan fan, he is far too injury prone, and despite having a very good pre season, I still think if we could get a replacement in, we should let him go

by FIFA Diva Fri 24 Aug 2012, 11:41 am

Lawless, The Watch, Judge Dredd and Total Recall are on my list to watch.

by Russell_Elmo Fri 24 Aug 2012, 11:54 am

Morning all,

Did anyone see the article yesterday, from the Sun, about the players that have left arsenal and have gone onto win 44 winners medals, whilst the ones that have stayed haven't won any lol

Crawley Town have won more trophies in the last 7 years than Arsenal The Euro Division Homepage XXVI - Page 17 3559488474

by **Hero** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 12:23 pm

They've won the Emirates Cup 3 times, a cup specifically designed to allow them to win a trophy each year but still sometimes they fail on that.

I have no idea. Next I'll be getting adverts for Veet hair removal cream and Deflatine.

by **Hero** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 1:07 pm

Strangely enough I've just been reading an article about a woman arrested for shaving her bikini line whilst driving.

by The Special Juan Fri 24 Aug 2012, 1:10 pm

I wouldn't be touching her hands when I was putting handcuffs on.

Was her name Eleanor Hamilton? On THAT Veet Hair Removal review on Amazon a woman named:

"Eleanor Hamilton says:
thanks for the warning - I was just poised to do the same"

with the warning being about a man applying the cream somewhere around his midriff.

by Bull Fri 24 Aug 2012, 1:13 pm

what was mine hero?

by Marky Fri 24 Aug 2012, 1:28 pm

Look yourself Bull, it's on the first draft page.

Yeah it was my first time, and I thought most people would go for Premier League players, so I went for players I thought I would get, instead of actual good ones Laugh

by **Hero** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 1:47 pm

Charlie Adam £9m

Shocked

Ruddy
Naughton - Hangeland - Agger - Enrique
The Ox - Lucas Leiva - Cabaye - Pilks
Bellamy
Ba

by Marky Fri 24 Aug 2012, 2:19 pm

After Week 1 we should do our starting XI for Week 1 in seasons 1-3.

Afternoon

For next season I hope that money will not be available as easy as it has been in this league. I would prefer it if we stopped giving money for voting, to be honest I think it's a joke that we give money for votes. Should be part of the league.

Perhaps it's something to consider for the reset at the end of season 3?

by **Hero** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 2:40 pm

As shown in the realistic league though there was 5 votes on some games when there should be 14 voting, the cash does incentivize some.

by **Hero** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 2:42 pm

Last call to inform me that you had a SP in.
Results will go up in 5 minutes otherwise.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 2:42 pm

Yeah you need something to give people a reason to vote, or else they won't. Pretty much everyone votes anyway with this system, so dont really see the need to change it

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 24 Aug 2012, 2:45 pm

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19368229

Seems Utd won't be making anymore signings then...

by Fernando Fri 24 Aug 2012, 2:45 pm

The idea of the league is to make it relatively even so why not give people who lose 2m draw 1m win 0m so give the rubbish sides a chance to catch up a bit The Euro Division Homepage XXVI - Page 17 3559488474

by sodhat Fri 24 Aug 2012, 2:50 pm

Plus the £2m is awarded if you vote and put tactics in, so it gives a good turnout for both

Maybe win/loss bonuses can be cut though
