Angry HT Flung Some Poo At RTFC

In the game I *really* needed to win, I pulled all the stops I could short of MOTS'ing. In reviewing the game, I'm not sure a MOTS would have helped. Needless to say, I'm pretty pissed. The HT gods must hate me (this means I'm in a fight for 2nd, instead of locking it up, having lost an unfortunate one on the road to Midwest in the first half of the season). Alas. Sometimes this game drives me nuts. Is there any other reason, other than just bad luck? GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Me: 207 Hatstats, 47.5 stars
Him: 155 Hatstats, 36 stars

RTFC (me)
Midfield: solid (very low)
Right Side Defence: solid (very low)
Central Defence: inadequate (low)
Left Side Defence: inadequate (low)
Right Side Attack: passable (very low)
Central Attack: inadequate (very high)
Left Side Attack: excellent (low)

Midwest United (him)
Midfield: poor (very high)
Right Side Defence: inadequate (high)
Central Defence: passable (very low)
Left Side Defence: passable (very low)
Right Side Attack: passable (low)
Central Attack: inadequate (high)
Left Side Attack: inadequate (very low)

I lost to Brillig again. I was a little surprised at this one.

HT gave me a 3-0 lead on the road which would have assured me of a top 4 finish for the first time in team history; however, we ended up blowing the lead and the game 4-5.

Hey, I did the best I could, including "pulling back the troops" after only 29 minutes. If there's a better way of trying to lose a relatively even match, I don't know what it is.

Oh, and...




PWNED

The game engine feels really erratic of late. I've seen tons of games with people outdone in all or most positions and still win, some even pretty big. It's bizarre.

what was the score TK? with that big of a midfield difference and offense/defense match ups, i agree you should have won.

2-2.
Gotta love presing matches where there are more than 2 goals scored (total). Pressing=low scoring my butt.

I have the second most goals scored for my series, and I'm in last place 3 points from safety. I don't want to hear it

terpkristin, you have angered the HT Gods by ignoring your defense. Ignore it again at your own peril.
