My team has arrived

Reminds me of the England 2007 World Cup squad, when the players took control cause the coaches didn't know what they were doing

Ska, just about to do your game and you've added in players bought past the cut off for this week. Let me know what you want to do instead.

I guess they'll just have to be replaced by McFadzean and Miller

Problem is they've got work this morning, with their roofing business.

Judging by the way they've been playing so far, they should have bloody stayed up there.

Just as a reminder, next week is the first round of the Hardcore cup.

Therefore:
1) it will use the no-rules game mode;
2) there will be no  injuries drawn for anyone;
3) any cards incurred will not count towards suspension
4) I will not add the goals/assists to the top scorers/assists lists

Yay

I love it hardcore.

Hero - who can add their £200k?

Trebs - where's the press conference?

I went to an ice cream restaurant at the weekend, never knew they existed. It was like an American diner but only for dessert, which was great, but I left feeling hungry due to the lack of meat on offer

Everyone can add 200k

They should swap the flake for a sausage and the chocolate sauce for some gravy.

Whilst they are at it, they might as well swap the ice-cream for mash potato too

It was brought up a few weeks ago that the current system of transfer confirmation is convoluted. I thought that an agreement had been made with regard to rule changes, but clearly I was mistaken - as my two signings have been deemed by the powers that be as ineligible for this week's game .

Can we come up with a simpler system? It's not like foreigns are a bidding war, so I would argue that we should get rid of the foreign transfers page and just put the transfer on the confirmation page.

It was proposed to change it for season 2.

I suggested we could do it straight away, but got no response, so it didn't change.


So I suggest that from now on, there is no need to post separately for foreigns, releases or lawyers. Just post everything on the Transfer Confirmation page in the first instance, making sure that you include the nature of the transfer on there.

I mean, how hard is it to cut and paste something from one page to another? This isn't 2005

In a rare development, I agree with the 6 fingered one

I can also almost guarantee that someone will not state what transfer type it is within the first week

But why do something you don't need to anymore. This isn't 2005

BamBam wrote:In a rare development, I agree with the 6 fingered one

Then it doesn't count, same as not confirming now. But why keep an unnecessary extra step?

Reminder - when confirming domestic deals, especially for cash - please put the TM value of the player in the post

Gents, we need a new Newport manager as Soddy has vanished.

£200k finders bonus for anyone who can find a new manager. The bonus will be paid when the new manager has submitted two weeks of tactics within deadline

Will do lawyers shortly.

Please can someone do mine

Dhurgham Ismail (Rizespor) - £198k
Liam Mandeville (Morecambe) - £99k

Do we list the press conference as "Week 5" or "Cup Week 1"?

Cos it's week 5, but it's not gameweek 5. Could cause confusion.

Did someone say ludy was interested at the start Marky/Ska?

Suppose Marky does it matter depending on if you can answer the next one if you’re knocked out?

I have numbered the fixtures so that the next league game is Week 6, so should be okay.

Lawyers are up. Bam is going to think it's Christmas

Table, results, scorers and assists all updated. Cup fixtures added above.

Finally got to signing one of the players I considered during the draft

I'm glad to see everyone has moved to not using the foreign transfers page

Tactics done. Bam, get yours in so we can see you thrash me 8-0 in a midweek game

I shall endeavour to do them today sir

Yay! I channeled my inner Premier League manager and made 10 changes

BamBam wrote:I'm glad to see everyone has moved to not using the foreign transfers page

Well it was never agreed to actually do it, so its a risk to just do it on the Confirmation page

Right, I need to register complaints about an unfair system. I won’t be waiting till 9am your time again to confirm transfers as it’s had me robbed of Grady.

I'm also against 9am just because only nonces are in the office at 9am

BamBam wrote:I'm also against 9am just because only nonces are in the office at 9am

Eating pork pies I assume?

I was told not to do before 9am and today has illustrated why I shouldn't have listened. Now I'm laboured with an appalling team of minimal value and ability, a season at least behind people who understand all the practises involved, and I'm having players consistently stolen from me by people who have been able to engineer their own perfect deadline.

Yup

I assume its a favourite of the Ja lads

Rof can you see if Ludy is still interested?

Isn't it easier for you because you aren't having to do it sneakily at work hoping no one is watching.

With the internet here and other things like waiting all day to do it, it’s another silly rule I’m against.

We’ve a bloody player lawyered for £990k this week. It’s actually made me want to sack it in. I already hadn’t brought Grady in cos building up a budget to get a point on the board was too difficult to be able to chuck away a player with 60 rating. He’s gonna make £1.2m this week. I’ve had to buy in players I think might be legally dead to use my budget whilst building my team and capability to get some quality later with money.

Which goes without me laughing at the idea this is all some covert affair as the work police breathe down your necks

Tbf anyone could have purchased a 900k player in the draft and got a 990k lawyer

I just happen to have had one in my starting line up, Carlisle have also got a 990k lawyer this week

I signed him after 10am GMT. Not like I pounced at 9am on the dot tbf.

Do you guys not own phones??

It makes sense that transfers open at the same time for everyone surely, but is there a better time that would suit Dolph and not be middle of the night for everyone else or anything?

It’s only a part of the grievance. I mainly wanted him cos he’s a West Ham boy, but I couldn’t afford to spend £200k on a player who is pretty Poopie by this games standard with the team I have. So I waited till Cup week where at least I could earn 600k in two weeks without a league game, but had to be polite. And it just takes the piss that he’s then brought in.

The lads will play an experimental two goalkeepers outfield and Barry Corr in goal system for the cup in protest

They’ll be wearing shirts protesting Suarez’s suspension cos we can’t afford our own being made and Kenny Dalglish offered us those now he’s w*nked in em all

Dolph - would it be better to be earlier or later for you. Say we moved it an hour either way to 8am or 10am.

I'm all for 10am as it gives me a chance to do the lawyers without someone nicking my target whilst I do them

Wollongong is only 11 hours ahead.

9am is only 8pm for him, it's not like its the middle of the night.

I also support 10am because I should actually be at work by then
