What's the line up and I'll come up with a set. We'll get some predictions in.

Does Guardiola have to comply with the 200 word limit too?

Would Pep be marked down for saying "pass it about a lot"?

And if the other team get the ball just kick em quick in their half.

Will Miky forego his bonuses this week due to lateness of posting tactics and results?

Nope

Nope

Can anyone verify you did your tactics and votes on time? Seeing as you've posted both late?

I'm not being harsh here, just I got £0 bonus last week for the same crimes and want to know where the line is drawn.

Fair comment actually.

Morning people. Ebbsfleets Mambo number 5 has had to retire due to a knee injury at the age of 26. Gutted for him.

I'm bringing him in as my assistant manager.

I had the same thought last week when saying we should all just post our votes on a results page seeing as we'd all have done them by now

mornin all...I've no problem at all with the votes being made public

So basically you are annoyed you got no bonus and are trying to pick people out for it? Not being harsh, just asking.

Its just funny how things like this happen when im a day later on getting results up when ive waited whole weekends for peoples votes/tactics in the past.

In fairness .. those people are then punished by not receiving a bonus

Keeps it a level playing field really. I'd happily take in tactics and votes if you were busy over a weekend

or have them on a designated page

I dont remember any bonus for doing the extra work every week on results???

If there is, id like it back dated please..

what you want extra cashola for doing something you wanted to do?

I'm meaning to sound ungrateful by the way - but why can't we have a "tactics page" are we really that concerned by people reading our 200 word generic tactics?

I voted for Moron. Done.

Where's Trebs?

I like the system for tactics and votes

Just saying if you are busy, or late yourself, it shouldn't be a problem for anyone else to take in votes and tactics, then post them up

If you are late with votes/tactics, the same rules on bonuses should apply

Bam to be fair mate, im just glad we are getting games every week, hence why I wanted to keep it as me getting the votes and tactics in each week because at one point, we couldnt even get people to write either

I appreciate all the organisation that goes into it, but I don't think its you collecting tactics and votes each week that has kept interest in the game this time

As I was very vocal on last time, its having a level playing ground and more importantly, chat on the boards which keeps it worthwhile coming back to the game

I still agree with Marky that you should be subject to the same rules on deadlines as the rest of us

I think when one person does so much, then this kinda conversation is bound to happen

when welshy had the dream league we had 3 managers email tactics rather than post on the tactics page...the amount of arse-ache that caused as people want transparency

Trouble is nobody has the "time" to do it Tino.

Bam yes I should be, I dont have any proof either because I clear my inbox each week.

I know time is difficult not once have I moaned about effort or lack there of...but I can see Marky's point of view - no-one knows when you've posted tactics...I'm not accusing you of cheating in any way just saying

Anyway, in summary - can we post our ruddy votes

I think for the work put in we just accept Miky’s word for it.

Whether we post tactics is a whole different conversation

i agree with not posting tactics

Votes shouldn't matter

If you ask then you might be surprised. I don't mind copy and pasting results in a new post. Can do it on my phone

I just dont understand the rush and the difference..

That's the point .. there is no difference

I don't think it's a rush as such but ya know deadlines are deadlines, plus I need my latest loss so I can add more money and sign another player

I feel like people just love to raise points to be awkward if you take offence to that, sorry but meh

offence? nah none taken

I'd happily do results or take in tactics if ever need be Miky

Or, people are raising valid questions that you seem to be taking offence to.

I take great pride in being awkward

I think Marky raises a valid point tbf and it’s just trying to improve the league for all rather than getting “one up” on others

Yes I have taken offence on occasion, I take it you guys know its hard work in the nicest way possible trying to keep as many happy as possible its also why ive backtracked on decisions in the past..its not easy, yes I agreed to do it and still want to, its just hard when things get brought up and they arent broken, if they arent broke we wont be fixing them.

Results are up.

Everyone can add £1.5m except the following

Marky - £750k
Olly - 750k
Nando - £750k

Morning guys, well played Miky.....was pleased with that win but like with a lot of games it is tough to call.

Will injuries go up soon? Wife's bday tomorrow so today is only day I can do tactics.

Christmas break ! I asked the same question lol

Can anyone sort some injuries?

Christmas break could be dangerous for the league Bam

I only have time to do the very basic of tactics this week anyway

I won't be on over Christmas. Surely we need to take a week, possibly two off.

Oh I had assumed it was agreed and I'd just forgotten when I asked about injuries

Yeah I ain’t gonna have time to do tactics and stuff over Xmas/new year
