Morning people!

Loved Torreira's celebration - he's turning out to be some player! And how crap is Eric Dier on a scale of 1-10? I don't know why any professional football team would ever select him. He's the worst England player since Carlton Palmer and every time I watch him play, he sucks ass harder than Viva.

Dier is, well, he is dire...

Sorry for the pun. Awful player for me. Brings a very negative way to play DM, which in this day and age isn't up to scratch. Could be a half decent CB if he stuck at it. 

only saving grace, he scored that penalty!

No saving grace for me. I was screaming at Southgate for allowing Dier to take that pen, even after he scored it.

If Eric Dier was a v2 manager he's be Nando. Good at the back, strong hard tackle, and not particularly offensive.

He really does negate a sides attacking ability. If you always look to pass backward, you're not going to get any attacks started. 

In other news, I actually managed to win a game this weekend! #upthelisle

Once Declan confirms for England, he'll take Dier's place. And it will be transformative for the midfield

What were the cup results? Did Big Bad Barry Corr play well in goal?

I would prefer Ant at DM tbh, he's more physically assertive than Dec and would be more helpful defending set pieces.

They both provide a threat in the air at least

Wow, I think it says a lot about this game that I only lost 2-0 with the team I put out

Nah, you were only playing Nando

Nah, I think Ant would be a car crash

Looking forward to taking over at United next season gunna make Jose look like a top offensive manager thinking of converting Romelu to a CB

Ant's forehead could rival Maguire's.

Did everyone get tactics bonus Hero?

Did we ever decide what was happening with non FIFA players btw

Sorry for delay on final game, Mrs in A+E with suspected appendicitis. Ska and Olly missed out on bonus.

Can’t be apologising there, hope everything is going ok   


Ludy another jaer has said he’d be keen to look at taking a team so hopefully he takes Newport

Don’t worry about it mate. More important things in life.

How is she?

Don’t think I’ll be able to get to lawyers and injuries until lunchtime sorry

Want me to do it?

Go for it Dolph

I'm halfway through injuries and remembered I've gotta go to the dentist. I'll post the incomplete list, and either someone can finish it or i'll finish it in an hour

Waiting on an ultrasound atm but she's been moved onto a normal ward now and dosed up with painkillers. Means I can't go to visit until 2pm so I'm getting the game done now that was missing.

Ouch, get well soon Mrs H

Will do the draw for the cup later too.

Can someone PM me the following teams randomly numbered 1-8

Exeter
Grimsby
Carlisle
Colchester
Bury
MK Dons
Cheltenham
Forest Green

And can someone else send me 4 random fixtures with the numbers 1 to 8 (e.g 1v6, 5v3 etc)

I'm back so will continue injuries and can do that too

Have pm'd Afro the teams, just needs the fixtures

Done. Injuries done except mine. I did Cheltenham's - am I meant to do my opponents?

Should I do lawyers?

Bam sent

1. MK Dons
2. Exeter
3. Cheltenham
4. Forest Green
5. Bury
6. Colchester
7. Grimsby
8. Carlisle

Dolph sent



1 v 5
4 v 3
8 v 2
6 v 7

So the draw is
MK Dons v Bury
Forest Green v Cheltenham
Carlisle v Exeter
Colchester v Grimsby

Someone else will need to do Cheltenham's injuries really.

Yes please do lawyers if you can

Do I need to not do Cheltenham's Lawyers too or is that fine?

Also, I'm doing 10% and rounding up any 0.5s

Lawyers done. I did Cheltenham too but can remove if necessary. Mine aren't done

Whilst I'm on a roll, should I do the Press Conference?

Excellent, do you know when he'll be coming on board? Would be good to get them making some signings before Newport fall too far behind, even if they don't do tactics this week

Why are Sau Paulo not in the game?

Pro Evo

Not a scooby unfortunately Bam, messaged on ja and he said Mon or Tue, but wouldn’t say he’d definitely take it unless he comes on and says so!

Looking at fixtures I should maybe hope he doesn’t though 

Dolphin Ziggler wrote:Lawyers done. I did Cheltenham too but can remove if necessary. Mine aren't done

Your fine to do Twists lawyers

Tactics sent. Good luck Eric

Tactics in

My tactics are in, good luck $ka

Tactics in. Good luck Bam.

Come to the decision that the prize for the cup will be:

Winners get to nominate both your lawyers in the week following the final;
Runners-up get to nominate 1 lawyer in the week following the final;

Everyone okay with that?

No doubt some people will say they'd have tried harder in the Cup had they known that was the prize, but speaking as someone who's still determined to lose in the next round, I concur with these prizes.

Shouldn't be a shock, the options of prizes was discussed before the cup was played. And there is always the second cup in the second half of the season
