[Raven Hawk]

Booyah! Keep on runnin'!

[Vikas]

I hope to make round 9 :)
bought a goalie today, portugal U20 guy, and hope to pick up another player before tomorrow

got a tough match, but what do ya expect in round 8 :) prolly gonna be a midfield clash, like 2 E-T's.....im aiming at a 110 nsi or something

[Vikas]

Btw lytic, im pissed at myself for not buying the hanguk U20 goalie :)
he woulda been a good buy, but he wouldnt have been trained so i guess you're lucky :(

[Alf]

I bought a low-formidable goalie (in poor form though) which is an upgrade from my mid-solid (youth pull goalie with weak XP now).

I also purchased an 18yo excellent winger with solid passing to try boost attack.

Ah, and I am MOTSing too, the guy I play gets titanic midfield when normalling... :eek: My best ever is brilliant...

[Vince]

Good luck guys...pretty impressive to make it this far!

[fantastic flying froggies]

Half-time update :
Alf is tied at 1-1, is playing pressing and has 53% possession.

In another french game, there is a huge upset in the making as the last div 5 team is leading 1-0 against the Nappes Xcutors (div 1), who's won something like 10 french cups and championships !

[fantastic flying froggies]

Alf takes the lead in the 56th. Come on !

Vikas kicks-off in 45 minutes now.

[Alf]

62nd minutes : 3-1 for me : he has injured my 2 best midfield trainees though...

I was in a meeting until now.. Cool !!!

[fantastic flying froggies]

78th, Alf only leading 3-2 now. Come on, just over 10 minutes to hold on !

[Alf]

Argh... He also injured my keeper...

[fantastic flying froggies]

ALF WINS !!!!!!!!!

[Alf]

Yes ! 3-2 for me !

Should be my highest NSI. Too lazy to calculate.

Do like me : use Hattrick Buddy, it calculates it for me :)

[Alf]

2 players injured (1 week)
1 bruised but playing

Since I already have 10 doctors (6 weeks injury to another middie trainee), they should be available for next week's game.

I even had a defender replace a midfield... but still got a supernatural midfield !

[FrogMan]

Congrats Alfie!!! :)

FM

[BreizhManu]

just checked your injuries, you're lucky just 1 week for both of them.

[fantastic flying froggies]

91.

All you need is ask, Master...

[Vikas]

NICE alf! congrats!

My game starts in 5!!! nervousssss

[Alf]

Thanks FFF ! Good luc Vikas.

[Alf]

TS is at composed now...

[fantastic flying froggies]

Vikas down 1-0... :(

[Vikas]

crap :(
wonder why he's pressing me, he is slightly better than me usually

boring match too...not much happening. I hope his pressing will pay off for me in the late 2nd half..

[DataKing]

Congratulations Alf! Way to represent!

Vikas, I'm watching the SubSpace match and rooting for you.

[Vikas]

51% possession...0-1 behind

I wonder why i didn't get a single chance...
My opponent is pressing, but it wasn't mentioned to be successful in the report, so that shouldn't be an issue concerning my chances...

Hope to have a better 2nd half.

[DataKing]

Klintin with the equalizer for SubSpace in the 74th minute.

[Vikas]

114 nsi.....50*....it all wasn't enough...

I just got killed in overtime :(

[lytic]

Nice ratings Viklas!! (http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail43.html)

You were robbed, you must have some SPC in you.

[Alf]

Vikas : Do you plan on reselling the U-20 keeper now ?

[Vikas]

Dunno, im kinda happy with him....
i paid too much, i know that, but considering that he's 19 and i would probably not need another goalie for the next 10 seasons, i think paying 1M too much isnt that bad...

[Alf]

Sure, but he isn't going to be U-20 or Nat keeper for too long since I assume you don't train goalie, do you ?

[lytic]

Yeah, I wouldn't keep someone who isn't getting training.

[damnMikeBrown]

My kid is 21, and will be going on sale in 5-6 weeks. He'll be a Titanic Keeper. That's enough defense to last you a decade+ without worrying about an upgrade.

[lytic]

He's cursed!!! 0 points in IV.19!!!

[damnMikeBrown]

Jealous lies. He had something like 11 points in IV.19...wasn't his fault. . .

[Vikas]

I know he's getting his ass booted off U20...

but now i paid 8M, and its gonna be hard to get rid of him without making a loss, and i dont want that either :P
