Here’s how it basically works.
You have a budget of 100m to purchase a squad with the following stipulations:

1. You MUST have a minimum of 6 players from the country designated to you.
2. You MUST have a minimum of 3 players that were born on or after 1st October 1991.
3. You CANNOT go over the squad limit of 25.

To buy your squad then you must make sealed bids for the players. How this works is that you check the value of the players on TM, the MINIMUM cost is what their value is on there, but you can bid more than that as others may wish to buy that player. The maximum value of a player that you can bid for is £12m although may wish to bid more than that in order to acquire him.
So for example;
Bull places a sealed bid of 875k for Paul Scholes as that is the TM value.
Viva places a sealed bid of 1m for Scholes as he thinks others may be bidding for him.

Viva therefore wins.

ALL squads are PM’d to myself and a designated neutral party (to ensure fairplay I will send my squad list first so it cannot be said I’ve gazumped anyone). I then reveal who has got which player in the first draft.
We continue the process until everyone has then spent up and we move onto the Star Player bid which works under the same principle although you have a budget of 25m + whatever remained from your normal bids for ONE player who has a value up to 25m

Clarification: Betting players or money between 2 clubs is strictly prohibited

You got a silver medal in this one mate, still pretty good Very Happy

(An 50 cent goes an makes a song with joe a few years later)

He has said the tune was a joke to show off. Nobody know if that was the truth. Most realistic scenario is the tune was to get his name out there which it did do. It still find it strange how DMX is the only name mentioned without a diss attached

by Trebs Fri Oct 05, 2012 4:06 pm

I don't think I'd have won anyway. Cheers though

by Guest Fri Oct 05, 2012 4:13 pm

Hero, what's your XBOX gamertag? We should play each other for the wooden spoon after both losing to marky.

by Fernando Fri Oct 05, 2012 4:14 pm

Marky is avoiding playing me Whistle

by Trebs Fri Oct 05, 2012 4:16 pm

I will buy Xbox Live soon. I will beat you all then, on fifa 12 as I don't yet have 13.

Is it actually any better, as I played the demo last night and it didn't seem much of an improvement. I only had a quick game to be fair.

I'm happy to get beat by anyone in fairness, only way ill get better is by facing superior players.

by GSC Fri Oct 05, 2012 4:18 pm

Added hero, play later?

You're hardly ever online when I am, and when you are, you're usually playing F1 anyway Ok!

I'm not about this weekend, so no Xbox live until Sunday night at earliest.

My wife's mum and partner round for dinner tonight, DIY tomorrow morning, Brentford v Crawley and a few beers rest of Saturday, taking the family to Peppa Pig World in Southampton on Sunday. Proper rock n roll lifestyle.

by sodhat Fri Oct 05, 2012 4:31 pm

It would be rock 'n roll if you trashed Pepper Pig World

Do it, and then I can see what you look like on the news on Monday

I genuinely suggested it to my Mrs (mentioned you were someone from the online football management thing I do rather than say you're my boss in the pretend wrestling I do Laugh

) and her retort was "The football will be finished by then as we're gonna be there from opening to close" Shocked

You could always bring your family and we'll skip merrily/stand in the rain and make awkward conversation.

by ncfc_Tooze Fri Oct 05, 2012 5:12 pm

Hi guys taken santon out of my squad

by **Afro** Fri Oct 05, 2012 5:13 pm

Yeah Tooze. Draft 3 is open, send them to me as Hero is dossing (or doing other more important stuff)

by ncfc_Tooze Fri Oct 05, 2012 5:14 pm

Go on tell her it's your wrestling boss. She might go for it, just to meet the man that you sit at your PC in spandex for

by **Afro** Fri Oct 05, 2012 5:27 pm

Got it, thanks GSC Ok!

by nadeem2099 Fri Oct 05, 2012 5:30 pm

Boston Red Sox are an NFL team aren't they?

by sodhat Fri Oct 05, 2012 5:31 pm

Baseball Nads.

Probably one of the most recognisable ones too...

by GSC Fri Oct 05, 2012 5:31 pm

MLB to be precise

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri Oct 05, 2012 5:32 pm

I need a DM for my team n can't think of one, grrrr

by Beer Fri Oct 05, 2012 5:33 pm

It's meant to be raining! Tell her it would be safer to shelter!

by nadeem2099 Fri Oct 05, 2012 6:18 pm

What happens with the left over money from the star player bids? For example i bid 20mill for Player X. What happens to the remaining 5mill?

by sodhat Fri Oct 05, 2012 6:19 pm

It's yours to keep

On the pretend manager game, not real life

Sorry

I could sell one of Coquelin/Barry/Tymoshchuk once domestic transfers open?

Nah.

by TwisT Fri Oct 05, 2012 6:46 pm

Didn't think he was that desperate for one..........

by nadeem2099 Fri Oct 05, 2012 7:03 pm

The desperate usually succeed because they have nothing to lose.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Oct 05, 2012 7:08 pm

Evening guys.

We are into the new house surrounded by boxes and the 3G is sh!t. It literally takes ls me like 2 minuts to go from page to page. My 3rd draft will be done sunday and i will update me squad then!

Come on Norwich against Chelsea tomorrow!! My head is telling me we have zero chance but that little part inside of me is saying we can get a result!! I believe!!! COME ON YOU YELLOWS!

by nadeem2099 Fri Oct 05, 2012 7:18 pm

Isn't there something called 4G coming out?

by GSC Fri Oct 05, 2012 7:25 pm

Yeah, but its Norwich. They only just moved past dialup

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Oct 05, 2012 7:29 pm

The actual internet sucks around here anyways. Dont get me started on the 3G...

No TV, No PC, No Internet, i feel like a deprived child. Damn moving house!

by Trebs Fri Oct 05, 2012 8:49 pm

Do we send star players with the third draft or is that later?

by **Afro** Fri Oct 05, 2012 9:01 pm

Later

by Trebs Fri Oct 05, 2012 9:02 pm

In that case, I'm not sending a draft as I have no cash to do so Laugh
