I'm not in charge of your results I'm afraid, but I think it is your game that needs the adjustment before they can be posted.

I already know my result

Haha, it would be my game wouldnt it lol

Yeah we are just checking that the 7-0 loss someone gave you was legit. Then we can post your crushing defeat here

eah we are just checking that the 7-0 loss someone gave you was legit. Then we can post your crushing defeat here

it probably is legit!

First ever win against Hero, finally broken the curse!

Well played though mate, thought it would be close. Where are people thinking that the mighty Chorizo should improve next?

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.

Hold fire, based on the rules, the results aren't final as 1) not everyone has voted and 2) some where late.

Whos that then?

I didn't want to be the one that said it, but those who sent in votes this morning shouldn't get the £1m bonus. They missed the deadline!

Hello all, finally have the Internet sorted!

I'm not going to lie! It feels so good to not be restricted

Not saying, but anyone who didn't vote before midnight last night will lose a goal, and anyone who still hasn't voted, will get default loss if they don't vote by midnight tonight (-1 goal if they do).

theres a 1m bonus?

£1m bonus will be to everyone who submitted tactics AND voted, ahead of deadline. And provided decent explanation for their vote.

theres a 1m bonus?

I though there was no bonus this time round.

So what score did i lose to afro?

It was a 1-1 draw Nad

Thats a relief then! I thought Mr 5-0 was gonna strike again. Well played afro.

Whats my games score Afro?

Don't know yet Zidane.

Actually that is a point Nad, it's provisionally 1-1, but I think we are still missing 1 or 2 votes.

Can you just give me a 17-0 win ??

Can we add our £1m now or do we have to wait?

Hi, can just get my result double checked please?

It is only added when there is a need to add it otherwise it can distort the actual score.

What does IIRC mean?

You can add yours Viva

It's only the people that didn't get votes in by the 12am deadline that don't get the £1m

Okay that's fine Sodhat

And I will add my 1m now

Soddy, do I get £1m then?

Zinedine_Ze_Zebra wrote:Soddy, do I get £1m then?

You did not get your votes in by the 12am deadline, you posted yours around 10am today.

Thank you Sodhat.

You voted late zeb so you don't get the bonus. I don't make the rules but I follow them.
#respecttherules

I posted when available. Don't be mean let me have the bonus. I have to pay Trend otherwise he's gonna send the heavies round

You can have the 1mill if you can answer this correctly

If money doesn't grow on trees, then why do banks have branches?

The guys are correct that you don't get the bonus because you missed the deadline I'm afraid.

On this occassion you only miss out on the bonus and don't get the full punishment of a goal being taken off the score. Trust me, if Afro had his way you'd all be doing lines right about now...

I should point out, though, that next week the full rule will be enforced. The votes deadline is 12am on Monday night, anyone late gets a goal taken off their score from here on out.

but I wasnt available on Monday to vote. Your mean sody. I used to like you, youve changed! gone all corporate now your a bigshot runner

I used to prefer it when it was Wednesday tactics and Saturday results because I had more time to do stuff at my desk. Across the weekend is far more awkward for me.

Sorry ZZZZZZZ, but them's the rules and everyone has to be treated the same so we don't get told off by you all.

Lawyers and Injuries are up for whichever league it is I have just done.

I'm going to be scarce from now until Friday, so have fun.

Sod - can you post those results for your league up

Result
1-1 Lopez - Huntelaar

Atalantas, midfield is what wins it for me here, its a bit stronger, especially down the wings. where pienaar offers a little defensive cover. Routledge doesnt do this so much and this is where I see this won being won and lost
both sides created chances but in the end settled for a draw
The Falcons dominate in midfield with Noble and Biglia not being pressured by Holtby and Draxler, who should be higher with more freedom. The Sour Krauts though do have some good attacking talent and they would have given their opponents problems there.
I liked the principle of what Sour Krauts were looking to achieve, but they were far too lightweight in midfield, with little experience and no physical presence in there. Therefore, Noble and Biglia were able to keep hold of the ball at their leisure and control the game
I feel the Falcons made a mistake in not starting El Shaaraway as he has been on hot form irl. I have no idea on who Britos is tbh and would feel Huntelaar would come up top against him. The Krauts formation was too defensive imo and they needed to play someone next to Huntelaar to trouble the Falcons defence more.
I love the set up from TwisT, and I think that he has caught Soddy off guard here. Huntelaar gets an early goal from a Routledge cross, and Sour Krauts are solid enough defensively to keep the Falcons out and pick up the win.
Atlanta played the joker in not playing El Sharawaay which meant that Huth was dragged out of position by the deep lying Reus, unfortunately they missed El Sharawaay's tenacity. For me this can be nothing other than a draw with both sides being set up very well
Really like the set up of the Krauts with some real speed on the wings and can see them causing teams a real danger over the season. Atlanta should have been starting with El Sharaawy and could have stole the draw if they had.

Result
1-2 Berbatov - Villa, Donovan

I like the look of spanish banks defense, but not having a four man midfield I can see them getting over run a little by the likes of Villa and Donovan. The overall strength of pass the dutchie is perhaps a little stronger though.
i think that PTD where to strong today , though SB did manage some great chances.
The Bankers don't have a good defense, Alba aside they need someone in the centre who has some experience. They look better going forward but Cassano's runs would have caused confusion. They were inviting pressure a bit playing so deep, but the Dutch come out on top here.
A tight game, which was difficult to call. In the end Pass the Dutchie won it for me through their two supporting attackers, with Donovan in particular enjoying the space that Alba left behind, and he was able to get the ball and run at Juan.
Bank really need to work on their tactics more as they have a decent team but tactics let them down. Dutchie did everything right and their tactics were spot on.
Not too overkeen on the attempt by Dutchie to state they swamp the midfield when they then state they're playing with 1 DM, 1 B2B & 1 AM in their instruction but the wingbacks for Bank I just can't see working well with a lone striker in the style of Berba.
Tight game for me is this one. Whilst I like Bank's set up, and I think it is very good use of the full backs, I prefer Dutchie's quality in the team, therefore I have plumped for a draw.
Spanish bank set up well but I feel that the added quality of Pass the Dutchie would see them through in the end, Cole kept Clyne quiet which meant that Villa didn't need to cover and it was him that made the difference.

2 fairly evenly matched teams here, I like how both teams set up, could be perhaps lacking the killer touch in each team.
felt that both teams where even and manged to gain a draw.
Difficult game to predict, with a lot of quality in midfields on both sides. The Deutsch look a lot better in terms of quality of their side and the likes of Macheda and Zaha aren't good enough for this level. However, the murderers do enough to get a point.
I couldn't split these two and went for the on the fence draw. FCISKD were well balanced, and I couldn't highlight one area of standout weakness, however Zidane's were stronger in their midfield, which leveled it out. Zidane do need to improve at DM though
Deutsch's main strenght is their defence, which I felt dealt with Zidanes's attacking threat well. I feel Kroos is more suited in a more deeper role and they need to upgrade on Macheda as he was totally isolated up front against Hummels.
Really good game this one, I like Zidane's wingers in Zaha and Lallana, but for me Macheda up front against Hummels/Papadopolous is a no contest. As for Russ's team, I really like the balance, and the front four is very good and ultimately they are not going to be kept out, and Russ's side is worth the win.
On another day could have been very different but the injuires to Zidane's team scuppered him, not a fan of Kroos & Lampard in a similar role and can see them ending up like Lampard & Gerrard not clicking. The loss of Defoe up front was huge, Macheda just isn't a replacement.
Zidanes team is possibly stronger but misses that clinical edge up front allowing Russ to knick it

Not a bad result for first game and a new system
well done olly

And Marky gets the default win over Nando

Thanks Sod

Do I add £2m bonus for winning the match?

Azzy congrats unlucky GSC you put up a tough fight

Not bad. Well done on the win Russ
Injuries did me over this week. Im aware I need a striker. Marcheda was only bought to get the Italian numbers up, cheaper option than El Shaarawy. With Defoe I would of been better off. Soon as I have Pedro, Defoe and Kroos all fit Im confident I can achieve better results.
