Training!

[Brillig]

Training, training time is near
Time for laughter and time for cheer
We've been good, but we can't last
Hurry, training, hurry fast

Want a keeper to stop a shot,
Want the HIFers form to drop!
We can hardly stand the wait
Please, training, don't be late

Training, training time is near
Time for laughter and time for cheer
We've been good, but we can't last
Hurry, training, hurry fast

Want a keeper to stop a shot,
Me, I want Jerome to pop!
We can hardly stand the wait
Please, training, don't be late!


Good luck, everyone!

-------------------

Form mostly flat, pair of scorer pops. Decent week for me :)

[saintjo]

2 pops in defending...
18 year old to formidable in 7 weeks. i was surprised until i saw...
18 year old to excellent in 6 weeks :) i bought him at passable. so right before he bumped to solid, he must have been right within a few points from popping. so when he went to solid he was really almost solid+1. regardless, im extremely happy

edit: those number of weeks were from HAM,. i looked at my training spreadsheet when i got to work today and it says 8 and 7 weeks. i trust my own spreadsheet more than HAM. but im still happy about the pops :)

[Raven Hawk]

Woot two huge pops for the Gargs.

17 y/o Striker to Excellent (which means he should hit formidable before the end of the season)

20 y/o Striker to World Class. :D :D :D

Form updates were good, too. All my starters are passable and higher now, except for one defender.

[Maltby]

Defender and Winger each PM pop one to passable other to inad.

+4/-4 on form

[One_to7]

3 defender pops. Both new trainees got training by playing for other teams, which is a nice bonus. Hopefully both of them pop before the end of the season. That would be very nice. :)

Brillig: Good job with the training song, although I would've said something about HIFers getting one of their 35 year olds hurt. :D

[BlueMage]

1 striker pop to formidable

Mixed form results... my oustanding defender has been poor all season long.. he finally went up in TSI this week, but is still poor, while my other outstanding defender who has been passable all season is inad, but took a huge TSI drop.

Looking forward to maybe 2 pops next week :D

Brillig, you rock. Turned out I had duty tonight and couldn't post the FOFC's favorite song. Thanks!

[Rich1033]

Just one pop in scoring this week.

He has been on my team forever, but I just dont think I can train him any longer. Sunday will probably be the last time he suits up for Toledo. :(

[Alf]

Rich, how much do you expect from this guy ? I just have a guy pop in PM at World Class and consider selling him to upgrade offense.

Another minor bump to a winger trainee (formidable PM), form is down a bit (-7/+2)

[Poli]

Ah, on my training front, a scorer to outstanding, and a middie to poor scoring.

[fantastic flying froggies]

3 scoring pops, hurray !
a 19yd old to oustanding
a 17 yd old to solid (bought him here from the FOFC Charlotte Jets )
a 17 yd old to passable (well OK, that's pathetic but he just joined my training program...)

Form update was simply brutal, +5/-11, 6 of those minuses to starters...

[Icy]

FORM: + 6 / -4
One of my defenders poped to Solid PM??? i haven't ever played him in the midle, weird thing.

[The Un-Ghosted Chubby]

starter popped to Formidable PM (1st Formidable player!), should have another in 3 weeks.

form +7/-3 starters were +5/-1 great update

[squirrel201]

Starter form was a modest +1/-1, Overall +5/-2. All three starting defenders remain in excellent form, and I'm hoping for two keeper pops next week.

[mrkilla22]

Had two PM pops, my #1 to outstanding and #6 to formidable. #1 will be sold now.

[JFiz]

Just form for me: +6 and -3

[DataKing]

A mixed bad this week for the Screamin' Seamen. Form improved this week, +7/-2, but only +1/-1 for the starters (FOFC Cup opponents, watch out). Average form for the club is now an impressive 6.3.

No improvements in playmaking this week, but none were expected either. 18-year-old trainee Uffe Denning Hansen has finally recovered from a nasty knee injury and will resume training this week.

The bad news is that Ben McMahon, the last remaining original Seaman and elder statesman for the club (he's 32 years old) is beginning to see his skills decline. His defensive abilities dropped this week to solid.

[BreizhManu]

[nickfox45]

i managed a whopping 3 PM pops and +7 on form, best week of training ever!

[terpkristin]

Not too much going on in RTFC-world.
Net form change was 0, though it's obvious that Dixon is dropping form (instead of gaining a few thousand TSI, he's gaining only a couple hundred... :()

He's titanic+2, whereas new trainee Light is solid still (about solid+2 if my guess is right).

Not too terrible I gues.

~tk

[finkenst]

two pm pops.. 20 yo passable/passable pm/wing
17yo to passable pm/solid wing.

form players: +10/-3
form levels: +10/-4

[Rich1033]

Rich, how much do you expect from this guy ? I just have a guy pop in PM at World Class and consider selling him to upgrade offense.
Not really sure. I would hope around 4 million, but that could be high. He has been at inad experience since last season and has been getting me 5 stars for a few weeks now. It would be nice if those factors plus his form push up his price.

I will look around the transfer list and figure out a good starting price. Keep an eye on the transfer thread for more information.
