Training!

[Poli]

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 Hieu to pop!
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!

Thought I'd get an early start, I have football tonight!

[fantastic flying froggies]

Very early start indeed!

[saintjo]

its funny because i went ahead and listed one of my defenders that will pop thurs early at the same time you posted this. looks like a lot of people are looking forward to this training update. i just need the money asap.

[Poli]

Very early start indeed!
Well, I've been slacking as of late, and my match is already over.

[Tellistto]

+6/-2 on form
+12/-5 on value

Very nice update on form and value after last weeks value dump for nearly the whole team. Nicest thing about tonight though is this:

A pretty good week for SSFC here at the tail end of the season.

Form was +5/-3, with the starters at +2/0.

We also had three players pop this week.

[MacroGuru]

Im out of the office and away from my machine, so I don't know my form, however.

17 yr old scoring trainee popped to Excellent

[Poli]

I still won't call him Ceaser. :pGood, because it's Caesar.

[Poli]

Hieu popped to outstanding.

[Vince]

Me? I lost my top middie (20 yo Magnificent) to a three week injury last sunday. I lost my #2 middie (19/20 yo outstanding...I don't remember his age) to a 3 week injury this wednesday. I also lost my #6 middie (18 yo Excellent) to a 4 week injury this wednesday. Damned injuries.

I did get my 33 yo winger to pop to excellent PM though.

[mckerney]

Good, because it's Caesar.

I never could spell, and I still won't call him that. :p

[sterlingice]

Mick Starks is almost ready to get back into the starting lineup after most of a season in the form crapper. Been a mixed bag of form this week, at best. Along with Starks, Johansen (my offensive central defender) has been out of the lineup for a few weeks and his form is now down to wretched :P

But, on the training front, there's been some good news:

Roland Janni (http://www9.hattrick.org/Common/playerDetails.asp?playerID=25768891)

Since I started, there's always been something about "world class" in my mind. It's the difference between good and great. Maybe it's because it's two words or double the level of the players when I started. But, whatever the case, former Hippo YP Thomas Little is now world class. So, in the words of Asok from the short lived Dilbert cartoon: "I shall now begin the paperwork to make you a god".

My backup keeper bumped to poor scoring! :)

No pops otherwise.

Form +4/-8, +1/-2 to starters.

No pops, none expected.

[rmk284]

...as they say, the only stupid questions are the ones not asked.

I'm training PM, and as we head to the offseason, I want to switch and get some stamina training. If I change the training now, it will still be PM this week until the update, and then switch after that, right?

Nyet, Comrade. Wait until Friday (or Thursday night after training has taken place) to change over to stamina. It will train whatever is listed at the time the training update takes place. Good thing you asked :)

Thanks SI

Okay, so the next training update takes place at 03:30 on 10/01 - wait until after that update to switch?

Yeah, updates happen on Thursday night (USA time, depends on your time zone exactly what time). So, the next day you'll want to change up. Or any time between then and the next Thursday before training time.

FFF : I think I'll only do a 1 week stamina training. Depends, might do 2.
