Let's wait until week 7 to start if possible. This is because:

NE Oklahoma Sidekicks
Midwest Ice Storm
North County Raiders
Aardvarks
Calibiri
Gargoyles
Intercourse Ball Kickers

are still in the US Open Cup and all but the Gargs have signed up for the FOFC Cup.



And I would also like it to be known that FOFCs Aardvarks are now the lowest seed left in the US Open Cup!

So you suggest we can book friendlies ?

That's my suggestion, but lets see what FrogMan and illinifan think I guess.


Plus, that's just the teams that are in the FOFC Fed., but I doubt there are too many(if any) more.

I won't be running the cup at all this time around, so I don't want to pronounce myself for others, but I have already booked a friendly for next week...

I don't know who is running it, but maybe we could start it this week, but just with the play in games. If we have more than 64 teams who want to and are able to do it, then the ones who are lower than 64 (and who are therefore probably out of the cup) could play this week and set up the round of 64 for next week.

But I'm just some guy who still doesn't know much about hattrick, so don't listen to me if this makes no sense.

That's a good idea, actually. Now we just have to figure out which teams are in for the rankings, right?

I don't particularly mind either way, just hope a decision is made ASAP for friendly booking purposes. :)

I didn't sign up because I figured that I would be making a cup run this year and the FOFC Cup would start before I was out. :) Oh well.

I think you should MOTS your cup game, and play all your starters...then play your backups in the following league game :D

Also- a MOTS might be in order against The Dallas Cowboys just to make sure your team spirit is horrible when we play in week 6

Yeah... two MOTSes in a row... right... I'll do just that :P

Really whatever you guys want. Since it seems like the majority of people booked, then yeah go with week 7 as the starting date. I'll try to get all the match-ups by next Thursday. Just go easy on me. I get home at 6 CDT PM so, if I don't have it Thursday night, I'll try my hardest to get it on Friday. :)
