Maniacal Misfitz HT Dynasty.... (Episode 1 - A n00b's hope!)
Well... since we are seriously lacking in HT Dynasty's reports ;) I thought i'd give it ago.
*****W A R N I N G***** I suck at spelling. so no bitching about words i spell wrong aight??? Or ill sick Afoci on ya. Im gonna use pretty much the same format DK uses. Why mess with perfection?? ~~~~~~~~~~~My Divison~~~~~~~~~~~ Over all i'd say my divsion is pretty weak. Only 1 team really scares me and im pretty sure there gonna win the divison. But i should get second place. Green Mages - They are in there third season under this owner and he just got demoted to Divison V. He's the best team in the divison and its gonna be very tough trying to beat him. Lucky for me i dont have to play him for awhile so ill have time to improve before we go at it. CristinaFC3 - Not to worried about them. there owner is rarley ever on and he hasnt really done much in the way of improving his team. PoBOXTeam - This team is OK at best. But i should have no problem thumping them both times we play. I'd look for them to end up around the middle of the divison at seasons end. Donkey Rapers - i think they will be third place by years end. They have a very tough Defense and a good goalie. But there midfield is horrible and there attack is pretty weak as well. ESAD - these guys have a passable coach and they've bought a few players on the transfer market. But i still see them finishing in the lower half of the divison. But the owner seems pretty active so dont be surprise if they steadly improve all year. Witches - hmmm this team is interesting as well. They just sold most of there squad. It looks like there gonna be doing some rebuilding. There gonna be a wait and see. But they could be a third place team if the owner plays his cards right. They might even give me hell for second :) Boston Bulldogs - this team sucks and the owner isnt very active. They should end the year in 7th or 8th place. Thats the divison. Right now its kinda weak. But with a couple owners rebuilding, this divison could heat up by the end of the year. ~~~~~~~~~~Coach~~~~~~~~~ Cory Pullen (8794312) 47 years, poor form, healthy A inadequate coach who goes all out A controversial person who is calm and honest. Has outstanding experience and passable leadership abilities. Nationality: USA Assessed value: 0 US$ Wage: 500 US$/week Owner: Maniacal Misfitz Warnings: 0 Well... i must be the most unlucky fucker to ever play HT. I went throught 9 coachs before i got this one. And he's average to say the least. I pissed away 100k to get this guy. LUCKY ME!!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~ARENA~~~~~~~~~~~~ 7,000 seater peice of shit. Im seriously considering selling my stud forward so i can upgrade this peice of shit to 14,000 seats. ~~~~~~~~~~~Training~~~~~~~~~~~ Training Level: 96% (Changing to 97%) Training Type: Defending Coach: Cory Pullen Team Spirit: composed Confidence: wonderful Formation experience 4-3-3: poor 4-5-1: excellent 3-5-2: poor 5-3-2: poor 3-4-3: wretched 5-4-1: wretched Ill be training defense all year since im running a 4-5-1.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Economy~~~~~~~~~~~
Cash funds: 57 981 US$ (41 031) US$ Sponsors: satisfied Supporter Club: 616 members Supporters: delirious Cant complain. Im getting 10-15 new suporters a week. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~Da Club~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Youth Squad: inadequate Investment in the Youth squad: 20 000 US$ / week Goaltending Coaches: 2 Assistant Coaches: 5 Sport Psychologists: 1 Spokepersons: 2 Economists: 0 Physiotherapists: 4 Doctors: 0 Ill be sticking with 20k a week in the youth squad until i hit passable. Then i might drop it to 10k if my money is tight. i guess its a wait and see kinda thing at this point. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Squad~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My team is fairly average for a new squad i'd say. I got very unlucky when i drew my team and i only got 3 good players. The rest of my team sucked big time. So i've had to buy alot of players and since im terrified of going into debt, i didnt have a chance to buy any big time players. Alan Magennis 51 000 US$, 18 years, inadequate form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: solid Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: inadequate Passing: poor Winger: wretched Defending: poor Scoring: passable Set Pieces: wretched i screwed up and bought him. I should have grabbed an older guy since i wont be training scoreing or playmaking at all this season. But nevertheless he's an average player. Alexander Blanco 68 000 US$, 27 years, passable form Has wretched experience and passable leadership abilities [Head] Stamina: passable Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: passable Passing: passable Winger: wretched Defending: disastrous Scoring: weak Set Pieces: wretched By far my best midfielder. He is a very good offensive midfielder with his great passing and [head] skill. he should get me quite a few goals and im hoping a few 3 star games Blaine Dent 11 000 US$, 23 years, wretched form Has wretched experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: passable Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: wretched Passing: poor Winger: wretched Defending: passable Scoring: wretched Set Pieces: wretched if i can ever get this fucker's form up he'll be a starter. But if i cant in like 4 more weeks im probally gonna try to dump him on the transfer market Brandon Kane 35 000 US$, 19 years, passable form Has disastrous experience and wretched leadership abilities Stamina: poor Keeper: weak Playmaking: disastrous Passing: disastrous Winger: wretched Defending: disastrous Scoring: disastrous Set Pieces: wretched My back-up goalie. He sucks but if for some reason my starter goes down then ill probally have to bite the bullet and grab another Inadequte on the transfer wire Charles Eddy 53 000 US$, 26 years, passable form Has wretched experience and poor leadership abilities [Unpredictable] Stamina: excellent Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: inadequate Passing: poor Winger: inadequate Defending: weak Scoring: weak Set Pieces: poor My starting winger for now. for some reason he gets 2 stars every game and is my leading scorer this year. i just bought an older passable winger which will replace eddy eventually once he gets his form up. but for now i cant complain. Ill take 2 stars a game anyday. Chip Fontaine 104 000 US$, 27 years, passable form Has poor experience and weak leadership abilities [Unpredictable] Stamina: passable Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: wretched Passing: wretched Winger: passable Defending: solid Scoring: weak Set Pieces: poor My stud wingback. he's a 2 1/2 to 3 star WB and i love him. And he just got passable form!! WOOT!! Chip Vogt 16 000 US$, 22 years, weak form Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities Stamina: poor Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: weak Passing: weak Winger: wretched Defending: inadequate Scoring: poor Set Pieces: disastrous Back-up defender that came with the team. Maybe i can bump him to passable one day and sell him. he's a wait and see kinda guy Einar Markhus 25 000 US$, 29 years, poor form Has wretched experience and inadequate leadership abilities [Head] Stamina: solid Keeper: wretched Playmaking: inadequate Passing: weak Winger: passable Defending: weak Scoring: poor Set Pieces: passable Just bought this guy last week. He will replace Eddy at winger eventually once i get his form up. Pretty good all around winger and i only paid 2,000 bucks Hector Browning 21 000 US$, 22 years, weak form Has wretched experience and weak leadership abilities [Head] Stamina: excellent Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: weak Passing: disastrous Winger: inadequate Defending: poor Scoring: weak Set Pieces: wretched not really sure why he's on my team. he's kinda like my back-up's back-up. He might see some action in the friendly's. But overall he pretty much sucks. Ignacio Ceballos 64 000 US$, 24 years, inadequate form Has wretched experience and inadequate leadership abilities [Unpredictable] Stamina: passable Keeper: wretched Playmaking: wretched Passing: weak Winger: inadequate Defending: passable Scoring: weak Set Pieces: wretched My other starting Wingback. I think he might be close to poping on defense. If i can get 2 Solid WB's ill be tough to score on from the wing's. Ismael Ferreira da Silva 35 000 US$, 19 years, passable form Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities [Powerful] Stamina: solid Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: inadequate Passing: poor Winger: poor Defending: inadequate Scoring: wretched Set Pieces: weak young defensive trainee. He is actually starting right now cause his form is so good. Gets me 2 stars everygame. He will probally be replaced by Blaine dent once Dents form gets high enough Jerome Hidalgo 29 000 US$, 26 years, weak form Has poor experience and poor leadership abilities [Head] Stamina: excellent Keeper: wretched Playmaking: weak Passing: weak Winger: inadequate Defending: weak Scoring: poor Set Pieces: weak ill be canning this guy soon. nuff said Jesper Lindhquist 26 000 US$, 20 years, passable form Has disastrous experience and inadequate leadership abilities Stamina: poor Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: poor Passing: poor Winger: inadequate Defending: inadequate Scoring: poor Set Pieces: weak Young Wingback Trainee. Should be a good player down the road. Johan Nilsson 27 000 US$, 17 years, passable form Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities Stamina: poor Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: wretched Passing: weak Winger: inadequate Defending: inadequate Scoring: weak Set Pieces: poor My other wingback Trainee. He's only 17 so in 2-3 years he should be an outright stud. Jökull Herjólfsson 6 000 US$, 18 years, wretched form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities [Quick] Stamina: excellent Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: poor Passing: poor Winger: poor Defending: inadequate Scoring: wretched Set Pieces: wretched a centre back trainee. For some reason this guys form refuses to go up. but it doesnt matter really. he's at least a tear away from starting Jorge Valdés 89 000 US$, 20 years, inadequate form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: weak Keeper: inadequate Playmaking: disastrous Passing: disastrous Winger: disastrous Defending: disastrous Scoring: disastrous Set Pieces: poor My starting goalie. he's only inadequate but he gets me a solid 2 stars every game. His form just dropped to inadequate so thats got me a little worried. Kahudi Widodo Simon 52 000 US$, 19 years, inadequate form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: excellent Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: inadequate Passing: weak Winger: weak Defending: inadequate Scoring: weak Set Pieces: disastrous well.... Kahudi is a tough one. he was supposed to be a defensive trainee but i've been playing him at inner mid. I cant really complain. He's getting me 2 stars a game. But his form just dropped as well so hopefully he'll continue to get me 2 stars. Leo Dugan 21 000 US$, 25 years, solid form Has wretched experience and passable leadership abilities Stamina: poor Keeper: wretched Playmaking: inadequate Passing: weak Winger: wretched Defending: inadequate Scoring: poor Set Pieces: poor He came with the team. My back-up inner mid. If his form stays the same and his stamina gets high enough he will probally start. He's a wait and see kinda guy Omar Nairn 38 000 US$, 20 years, poor form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: weak Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: weak Passing: weak Winger: poor Defending: passable Scoring: weak Set Pieces: inadequate My other starting Central back but his form just dropped like a mofo so im not sure what im gonna do with him this week. i think ill let him try to play throught it. i have a pretty easy game this week. Ossie Montoya 12 000 US$, 19 years, wretched form Has disastrous experience and passable leadership abilities [Technical] Stamina: passable Keeper: wretched Playmaking: wretched Passing: weak Winger: weak Defending: weak Scoring: weak Set Pieces: disastrous my back-up everything. he's my emergency guy. Yet in my last cup came it said he had a TERRIBLE game yet he got a hattrick?? wierd. Per Godland 40 000 US$, 20 years, weak form Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities Stamina: passable Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: wretched Passing: weak Winger: inadequate Defending: weak Scoring: passable Set Pieces: inadequate he's a back-up winger/forward. Seth Ortega 160 000 US$, 25 years, inadequate form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: solid Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: weak Passing: passable Winger: weak Defending: poor Scoring: solid Set Pieces: weak my stud forward. i love this guy. if i could get him to passable form he'd be a 3 star a game every game kinda guy. look for big numbers from him this year. But i might also sell him to upgrade my stadium. Ill wait and see. Stuart Troutt 65 000 US$, 20 years, passable form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: solid Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: weak Passing: weak Winger: passable Defending: poor Scoring: weak Set Pieces: wretched my other starting winger. he gets me 21/2 stars a game every game. i love him. and i think he's kinda near poping in winger. but ill never know ~~~~~~~~~~~~~Season Thougts~~~~~~~~~~~ Im happy with this squad. it could be better, it could be worse. But im not in dept and i shouldnt be in debt anytime soon. so im happy. I see no reason why i shouldnt get second place in my divison this year. There are a couple teams rebuilding though. so i wont get to optimistic yet. I have no really bad weakness a s of yet. My midfeild could use a little help. but they got a weak rating last week Which isnt bad for a new team. Up next..... First games of the season |
Season 1 - U.S.A. Cup - Round 1
Nevada Gurus vs Maniacal Misfitz First match of the season is a cup game vs a bot team. These guys suck big time and i should demolish them with little effort.I had to play my starters so i could keep there form up. Im playing my usual 4-5-1. Starters GK- Jorge Valdés Right Wingback - Ignacio Ceballos Central Defender 1 - Omar Nairn Central Defender 2 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Left Wingback - Chip Fountaine Right Winger - Charles Eddy Inner Mid 1 - Alexander Blanco (Captain) Inner Mid 2 - Kahudi Widodo Simon Inner Mid 3 - Alan Magennis Left Winger - Stuart Troutt Forward - Seth Ortega Subs GK - Micheal Bone Defender - Blaine Dent Winger - Jesper Lindhquist Inner Mid - Leo Dugan Forward - Per Godland Our starters should blow these guys to peices. Im interested to see how Alan plays at Inner Mid. That third Inner Mid spot is up for grabs. i have 3 guys competeing for the same job. but i think once his form goes up he'll be the starter for good. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Match~~~~~~~~~~~ The 5364 spectators at Nevada Bowl were in for an afternoon of sunshine. Nevada started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Ferrando - Jackson, Bernstein, Willis, Noel - Nowak, Person, Kennedy, Kelly - Sellers, Nicholas. Maniacal tactics involved an interesting 4-5-1 combination. The following players had been chosen: Valdés - Ceballos, Nairn, Ferreira da Silv, Fontaine - Eddy, Simon, Magennis, Blanco, Troutt - Ortega. Seth Ortega delivered a good free kick from an excellent position in the 12th minute, but luck wasn´t on Maniacal´s side this time, the ball going wide. After 40 minutes Maniacal put themselves up by 0 - 1 as Charles Eddy finished off a strike from the left with a real cannon placed at the far post. It was a hot and sunny day, and several players seemed worn out. Maybe this was why Marvin Noel found unusually much space for his snappy footwork. The away team´s Alexander Blanco took advantage of a mistake to the home side´s right in the 40:th minute increasing Maniacal´s lead to 0 - 2. Halftime score was 0 - 2. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Maniacal, with an impressive 76 percent possession of the ball. Ignacio Ceballos unexpectedly struck an inside out ball from no angle at all, and Charles Eddy forwarded it into goal for 0 - 3 The structure of the game started to change as Maniacal decided to pull back and meet their opponents in the defensive zone. The visitors Alan Magennis took advantage of an error due to a misunderstanding between the home side´s goalie and full backs in the 61st minute. 0 - 4 for Maniacal. Ignacio Ceballos increased the visitors lead by putting a volley shot away on a pass from the right. 0 - 5. Marvin Noel received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly, probably out of lack of experience, in the 71st minute and almost caused an opponent to score. Kahudi Widodo Simon came close to extending the visitors lead as he, completely unmarked in front of the goal, lifted a ball over Manuel Ferrando, hitting the bar. As usual, Ismael Ferreira da Silva tried to use his strength and hard work for the benefit of the team, but the heat hit him hard this day and he couldn´t keep the pace at all. Samuel Nicholas challenged the visitors full backs eagerly, producing a good chance in the 81st minute as he went for a through ball combination. But as so many times before, the guest´s defensive efforts got the best of it. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Maniacal, with an impressive 90 percent possession of the ball. The most dominating Nevada player was without a doubt Samuel Nicholas. However, Wiley Jackson made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating Maniacal player was without a doubt Seth Ortega. Alan Magennis was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 5. Goals Charles Eddy - 2 Ignacio Ceballos - 2 Alan Magennis - 1 Player Ratings Jorge Valdés ** Ignacio Ceballos ** Omar Nairn ** Ismael Ferreira da Silva ** Chip Fountaine **~ Charles Eddy ** Alexander Blanco ** Kahudi Widodo Simon **~ Alan Magennis *~ Stuart Troutt **~ Team Ratings Nevada Gurus Player rating and Team formation Midfield: disastrous Right Side Defence: poor Central Defence: inadequate Left Side Defence: inadequate Right Side Attack: poor Central Attack: weak Left Side Attack: poor Maniacal Misfitz Player rating and Team formation Midfield: poor Right Side Defence: inadequate Central Defence: passable Left Side Defence: passable Right Side Attack: inadequate Central Attack: weak Left Side Attack: passable Post Game Comments Im overall pretty happy with the game. I was a little upset at how long it took us to score our first goal. But we coasted after that. The midfield needs a little help. Alan Magennis 1 1/2 stars was a disappointment. But once i get him to passable form he should be ok. Charles Eddy pounding home 2 goals was kind of a surprise and my Wingback Ignacio Ceballos getting 2 goals also was very shocking :) But all in all it was a good warm-up match for our first league game on sunday were we'll be squaring off vs The Witches. Up next the league opener vs the witches!!! stay tuned |
Season 1 - League Game - Round 1
Witches vs Maniacal Misfitz well.... here we go!! first league game of the season!! Im excited but kinda nervous at the same time. i think im better then this team, But not by much and they have home field advantage.. They've got a strong attack and an O.K. defense. There Goalie is suspect and so is there midfield, but then again so is mine. :) Starters GK- Jorge Valdés Right Wingback - Ignacio Ceballos Central Defender 1 - Omar Nairn Central Defender 2 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Left Wingback - Chip Fountaine Right Winger - Charles Eddy Inner Mid 1 - Alexander Blanco (Captain) Inner Mid 2 - Kahudi Widodo Simon Inner Mid 3 - Alan Magennis Left Winger - Stuart Troutt Forward - Seth Ortega Subs GK - Micheal Bone Defender - Blaine Dent Winger - Jesper Lindhquist Inner Mid - Leo Dugan Forward - Per Godland Same line-up as last week. Gonna keep a close eye on Alan again. if he doesnt start cranking out 2 stars a game i might replace him with Leo. But Leo's stamina is terrible and i cant seem to make it go up. So since Leo's stam sucks right now, Alan's job is safe. ~~~~~~~~~~~The Match~~~~~~~~~~~ A brilliantly sunny day had enticed a crowd of 7220 to The Pentacle. Witches started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. Lineup: Ralston - Flowers, Eiriz, Mcintyre, Thorn - Bausa Lopez, Stensson, Cohen, Hubbard - Metz, Crow. Maniacal started off with a 4-5-1 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Valdés - Ceballos, Nairn, Ferreira da Silv, Fontaine - Eddy, Simon, Magennis, Blanco, Troutt - Ortega. Maniacal took the lead in the games 4:th minute with 0 - 1 after some elegant plays down the middle. Alexander Blanco was the scorer. José María Bausa Lopez of Witches received a yellow card in the 12th minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. 0 - 2 was a funny story: the seemingly nonchalant lob from Maniacal´s Chip Fontaine landed at the feet of Stuart Troutt who sent it into the net - goal! Some fine manouvering on the left lead to an 23rd minute Maniacal goal, making it 0 - 3. Ismael Ferreira da Silva was noted down as the scorer. Witchess Timothy Hubbard went wide in the 28:th minute, recieving a brilliant pass slicing through the visiting teams central defense line, putting the 1 - 3 goal away. Halftime score was 1 - 3. Maniacal, bringing the final ball possession rate to 55 percent, dominated the battle. Maniacal came close to extending their lead as Alan Magennis delivered a long range shot from the right but the angle was to sharp, and the shot hit the side of the goal. It wasn´t a good day at all for Ismael Ferreira da Silva. His powerful style of play didn´t fit the bill this warm day. A well placed corner kick from Seth Ortega was followed by Alexander Blanco´s hard but accurate header. The nice combination meant 1-4 for Maniacal. The structure of the game started to change as Maniacal decided to pull back and meet their opponents in the defensive zone. In the 80:th minute Maniacal put themselves up 1 - 5 after an attack from the right, caused by a defensive blunder. Scorer was Charles Eddy. Maniacals Ismael Ferreira da Silva got himself booked after a foul. Seth Ortega increased the visitors lead by putting a volley shot away on a pass from the right. 1 - 6. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Maniacal, with an impressive 58 percent possession of the ball. The most dominating Witches player was without a doubt Peter Crow. However, Thad Flowers made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating Maniacal player was without a doubt Chip Fontaine. Alan Magennis on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 6. Goals Alexander Blanco - 2 Seth Ortega - 2 Stuart Troutt - 1 Charles Eddy - 1 Player Ratings Jorge Valdés - ** Ignacio Ceballos - ** Omar Nairn - *~ Ismael Ferreira da Silva - ** Chip Fontaine - **~ Charles Eddy - ** Alexander Blanco - ** Kahudi Widodo Simon - ** Stuart Troutt - **~ Alan Magennis - *~ Seth Ortega - **~ Team Ratings Witches Player rating and Team formation Midfield: poor Right Side Defence: inadequate Central Defence: passable Left Side Defence: weak Right Side Attack: passable Central Attack: passable Left Side Attack: passable Maniacal Misfitz Player rating and Team formation Midfield: poor Right Side Defence: inadequate Central Defence: passable Left Side Defence: passable Right Side Attack: inadequate Central Attack: weak Left Side Attack: passable Post Game Comments Im kinda surprised we won by this big of a margin. i expected a much closer battle, espically since they were at home. My team played almost as expected. I was a little upset Omar and Alan only got 1 1/2 stars. But everyone else played pretty good. League Scores Green Mages - Donkey Rapers 3 - 1 This one went as expected. The Donkey Rapers Defense kept the score close. But they never really had a chance. The Green mages are just all around a solid team. CristinaFC3 - Boston Bulldo 6 - 0 I expect this one to be a little closer then it was. Nether one of there teams are very good and i thought the Bulldogs would put a little more of a fight. PoBOXTeam - ESAD 6-2 Pretty much how i thought this one would turn out. Neither one of these guys are any good. But PoBOXTeam is a little better. Coming up next is this weeks cup game!! I'll be playing a human team this week. But they look to be pretty weak. |
Season - 1 - U.S.A. Cup - Round 2
Maniacal Misfitz vs Turtle Quick Alright.... Cup game number 2. Im at home this time but it really doesnt matter. These guys suck. How the bot team they played in the first round didnt beat the shit outta them i'll never know. There Offense sucks, there defense sucks and there Midfield.... well i cant think of a word to discribe how bad they fucking are. This will be a peice of cake. Starters GK- Jorge Valdés Right Wingback - Johan Nilsson Central Defender 1 - Jökull Herjólfsson Central Defender 2 - Chip Vogt Left Wingback - Jesper Lindhquist Right Winger - Einar Markhus Inner Midfield 1 - Alexander Blanco Inner Midfield 2 - Leo Dugan Inner Midfield 3 - Alan Magennis Left Winger - Stuart Troutt Forward - Ossie Montoya Subs Gk - Michael Bone Defender - Blaine Dent Winger - Per Godland Inner Midfield - Kahudi Widodo Simon Forward - Seth Ortega Im playing mainly back-ups here. The only starters are Jorge Valdés my goalkeeper, Alexander Blanco my inner Midfielder, Alan Megennis another inner middy and Stuart Troutt my winger. I should have just played all my back-ups but i didnt wanna screw up and lose the game cause my back-ups fucked up. Anyway... i should still whip them pretty good. ~~~~~~~~~~~~The Match~~~~~~~~~~ Fairly good weather for football had drawn a crowd of 7000 to Maniacal Misfitz Arena. Maniacal started off with a 4-5-1 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Valdés - Nilsson, Herjólfsson, Vogt, Lindhquist - Markhus, Magennis, Blanco, Dugan, Troutt - Montoya. Turtle started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Hacker - Boykin, Quintanilla, Ramos, Connolly - Wiggins, Crane, Hager, Jung - Holloway, Romero. Johan Nilsson received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly, probably out of lack of experience, in the 4:th minute and almost caused an opponent to score. The 10:th minute saw the home team take a 1 - 0 lead after a leak in the visitors right side defense. Scorer for Maniacal was Alan Magennis. In the 17:th minute Turtles Jimmie Ramos received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Ossie Montoya almost managed to score another goal for Maniacal, but his header was tipped to a corner by the visitors goalie. A bit later, a magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Maniacal´s Ossie Montoya putting the lead up to 2 - 0. The structure of the game started to change as Maniacal decided to pull back and meet their opponents in the defensive zone. The teams went for a half-time break at 2 - 0. Maniacal, bringing the final ball possession rate to 78 percent, dominated the battle. The home side´s Alan Magennis came close to extending the lead in the 46:th minute. His shot came in off the right hand side but Bob Hacker managed saving with a fingernail. A couple of quick and successful challenges, followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area after 49 minutes might have resulted in another goal for Maniacal. However, Bob Hacker made a spectacular save. Things were going to get worse for the visitors. Ossie Montoya squirmed himself through the central defense line in the 73rd minute, asserting the lead to 3 - 0. Ossie Montoya increased Maniacals lead to 4 - 0 by putting a header away on a hooked ball from the right. This third goal made a hat trick for Ossie Montoya. Maniacal held the ball, with a clear 83 percent possession rate. most dominating Maniacal player was without a doubt Stuart Troutt. Ossie Montoya was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Turtle player was without a doubt Marvin Connolly. Omar Quintanilla on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 4 - 0. Goals Ossie Montoya - 3!!!!

Alot of these guys havent played in 3 weeks. So there form is all shot to hell. But there were a couple surprise performances. Leo Dugan played great, his stamina is now at poor. If i can get it to passable ill be able to start him at inner mid which will help. Ossie Montoya got my first ever HATTRICK!!! kinda funny that he got it considering he is probally the worse player on my team. go figure :) Einar Markhus was kind of a let down. He is Passable winger and eventually he will replace Eddy as a starter. But his form is at Wretched and he only got me 1 star. Hopefully in a few weeks i can get him to inadequate form and get him into my starting line-up. But Eddy must know his in trouble because he's been playing like a stud the last couple weeks. All in all it was a good game for my back-ups. I cant complain. Up next, this weeks training results and youth pull update |
Big News First!!
Well i got good news and bad news. Good news first..... I Finally stopped talking about selling Seth Ortega to upgrade my stadium and i did it. It was a tough decision but after looking through the Transfer lists all morning and bidding on a bunch of guys to replace Seth i finally found this little gem just waiting for ME!! Yuri Ruiter 77 000 US$, 27 years, passable form Has poor experience and solid leadership abilities [Technical] Stamina: weak Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: poor Passing: passable Winger: disastrous Defending: inadequate Scoring: passable Set Pieces: passable I only paid 14,500 for him This is an outright steal. He is a 2 1/2 star a game forward. He's also in top form and he has Solid Leadership!! 2 of my last 3 transfer picks have been great. i got this winger last week for only 2,000 bucks. Einar Markhus 25 000 US$, 29 years, poor form Has wretched experience and inadequate leadership abilities [Head] Stamina: solid Keeper: wretched Playmaking: inadequate Passing: weak Winger: passable Defending: weak Scoring: poor Set Pieces: passable Once his form gets up to passable he's a 2 1/2 star a game kinda guy as well. There are deals all over the Transfer Market, you just gotta be patient. The Bad News....... Im really gonna miss Seth Ortega :( He is a beast. Once his form hits passable he'll be a 3 star a game forward everygame. If any of you more exp. guys with some money are in need of a solid forward here's Seth's skills. Seth Ortega 160 000 US$, 25 years, inadequate form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: solid Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: weak Passing: passable Winger: weak Defending: poor Scoring: solid Set Pieces: weak Deadline: 4/16/2003 at 00:59 The Bidding starts at 160,000 but i expect him to sell for between 200,000k - 300,000k. That will be plenty to upgrade my arena and still have a little cash to burn afterwards. Training Update Well, it wasnt the greatest training week ever but something wierd happened. i guy i didnt play at defense went up in defense. I've never heard of that happening before. Maybe its a bug or something but who cares, ill take it :) It was Per Godland my back-up forward. He didn't even play a game last weak and his defense still bumped from poor to weak. Besides him bumping noone else went up in defense. Not the greatest form week ever either. 6 guys went up in form including 3 starters But 8 guys went down :mad: Including 3 starters Balance Sheet 25 531 US$ Revenue Expenses Crowd 21 440 Arena 3 900 Sponsors 28 650 Wages 19 810 Financial 0 Interest 0 Temporary 1 170 Temporary 20 500 Staff 19 500 Youth squad 20 000 Total revenue 51 260 Total expenses 83 710 Last week´s income/loss -32 450 Started off the week with~~~~~~ 57,981 US$ Ended the week with~~~~~~~~~ 25 531 US$ Not bad considering i added a few players. Next weeks should look alot different. I have a home game on sunday, My cup game should get me about 20k, and selling Seth should get me a big chunk of change. But then ill upgrade my stadium with that money. I still should make a very nice profit next week. Up next, this weeks League game vs CristinaFC3 |
Quick question.... who would you make youe team captain???
This guy....... Alexander Blanco (8787050) 27 years, passable form, healthy A popular guy who is calm and upright. Has wretched experience and passable leadership abilities or this guy........ Yuri Ruiter (10693028) 27 years, passable form, healthy A controversial person who is balanced and honest. Has poor experience and solid leadership abilities Yuri's got Solid leadership but he is Controversial and Alexander has Passble leadership and he is a popular guy. whaddya think?? |
I think I read somewhere that team captain has more to do with experience and a little with leadership....so if that is the case then Ruiter should be your guy.
|
That's true, Doug, but I also read in the game rules the following:
All players have a "personality". They can be nice or nasty, leaders or loners, temperamental or calm, or why not cheaters or something else? Leadership and agreeability are only applied to the player with the highest leadership factor, "the team leader". If this person is agreeable, the teams athmosphere will be as well, and if he´s nasty you might end up with a really nasty atmosphere in your squad. A coach with strong leadership abilities might counteract a disagreeable "team leader" amongst the players. So, would this indicate that Ruiter's controversial nature would hinder his leadership to some degree? That's how I've interpreted it. Havok's coach is passable in leadership, so I don't think he'd counteract it that much. But, then again, how important is nature vs. leadership ability? I'd say just get a clown and don't worry about it anymore. That's on my to-do list. |
Dola... got confused about captain vs. leader... the rules agree with you on captain Doug.
|
Now you know why Yuri was so cheap- he's death to team spirit. Unless you have another solid leadership guy, he is, by default, your "team leader". Unfortunately, your coach, the only guy who can really counteract that, is also controversial so... well, hmm... you're doomed to mediocre team spirit at best so PIC games if you can.
The good news, however, is that Yuri will be a good onfield "team captain"- as that is basically an addition of experience + leadership and he's pretty good on both. SI |
well... since there are a couple weak teams in my divison i'll be able to PIC once every couple weeks so it wont be to much of a problem hopefully. I guess we'll wait and see.
|
Well if everything I've been seeing here is true, I have facts to back it up. My team captain:
Erasmo Eiriz 27 years, passable form, healthy A pleasant guy who is calm and honest. Has weak experience and solid leadership abilities has been my team captain since I got the team. With the exception when I hired to many coaches and they decided not to get along, or when I acquired a couple different players, my team spirit has jumped leaps & bounds and I've never PIC always "Normal" or "MOTS. |
Season - 1 - League Game - Round 2
Maniacal Misfitz VS CristinaFC3 I shouldnt have much of a problem with these guys. There the first place team in the league buts thats only because they played a shitty team last weak and killed them 6-0. There Midfield is pretty good, but there offense and defense sucks big time. Also... this will be Seth Ortega's last game in a Misfitz uniform :( Maybe he can light things up for me as a going away present. Starters GK- Jorge Valdés Right Wingback - Ignacio Ceballos Central Defender 1 - Omar Nairn Central Defender 2 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Left Wingback - Chip Fountaine Right Winger - Charles Eddy Inner Mid 1 - Alexander Blanco (Captain) Inner Mid 2 - Kahudi Widodo Simon Inner Mid 3 - Alan Magennis Left Winger - Stuart Troutt Forward - Seth Ortega Subs GK - Micheal Bone Defender - Blaine Dent Winger - Jesper Lindhquist Inner Mid - Leo Dugan Forward - Yuri Ruiter Same line-up as my last league game. Except my new forward Yuri will be the back-up forward. Im gonna keep an eye on Omar Nairn this game. He had a big form drop from last week (Inadequate to poor). Im gonna see if he can play through it but if his form doesn't go back up by the team league game ill have to bench him. Im also keeping an eye on my Goalkeeper Jorge Valdés, His form just dropped to Inadequate so that might be a problem. ~~~~~~~~~~~~The Match~~~~~~~~~~~~ Weather conditions were fairly good for football, and Maniacal Misfitz Arena saw a crowd turnout of 7000. People from all of Florida had joined up for the derby. Maniacal tactics involved an interesting 4-5-1 combination. The following players had been chosen: Valdés - Ceballos, Nairn, Ferreira da Silv, Fontaine - Eddy, Simon, Magennis, Blanco, Troutt - Ortega. CristinaFC3 had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. They fielded: Phillips - Daniels, Smiley, Abendańo - Garland, Robert, Polanco, Hines, Swee-Seng - Stokes, Munson. Maniacal took the lead in the 4:th minute of the game by 1 to 0, as Alexander Blanco elegantly received a pass going deep, finishing off with a half-volley shot just below the bar. Visitors Ned Stokes was alert on a play coming in from the left, making the score a tie at 1 - 1 in the 14:th minute. Some beautiful plays on the left side of the field resulted in a 19:th minute goal by Seth Ortega for Maniacal, putting them ahead 2 - 1. Maniacals Ismael Ferreira da Silva got himself booked after a foul. David Polanco received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly, probably out of lack of experience, in the 41st minute and almost caused an opponent to score. Seth Ortega increased Maniacals lead to 3 - 1 by putting a header away on a hooked ball from the right. 3 - 1 was the half-time score. Maniacal, bringing the final ball possession rate to 52 percent, dominated the battle. A bit later, a magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Maniacal´s Ignacio Ceballos putting the lead up to 4 - 1. The referee showed CristinaFC3s Ken Hines the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. CristinaFC3 had a fair chance to reply after 65 minutes, due to some fine moves down the left, but in the end no one was there to put their head to the ball as it was lifted into the box. CristinaFC3 held the ball, with a clear 52 percent possession rate. The most dominating Maniacal player was without a doubt Chip Fontaine. Omar Nairn on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating CristinaFC3 player was without a doubt Ned Robert. However, Ken Hines made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 4 - 1. Goals Seth Ortega - 2 :) Alexander Blanco - 1 Ignacio Ceballos - 1 Player Ratings Jorge Valdés - *~ Ignacio Ceballos - ** Omar Nairn - *~ Ismael Ferreira da Silva - ** Chip Fountaine - **~ Charles Eddy - ** Alexander Blanco - **~ Kahudi Widodo Simon - ** Alan Magennis - *~ Stuart Troutt - **~ Seth Ortega - **~ Team Ratings Maniacal Misfitz Player rating and Team formation Midfield: weak Right Side Defence: passable Central Defence: solid Left Side Defence: solid Right Side Attack: inadequate Central Attack: weak Left Side Attack: passable CristinaFC3 Player rating and Team formation Midfield: weak Right Side Defence: weak Central Defence: weak Left Side Defence: poor Right Side Attack: inadequate Central Attack: inadequate Left Side Attack: inadequate Post Game Comments Seth came through in his last game!!! Netting 2 goals and dominating up front. And also as expect Omar Narin and Jorge Valdés both played like crap. Depending on how much i have left over after i sell Seth and upgrade my stadium i might grab a passable Goalie. Even though droping a 100k on one player isnt the greatest idea for a new team it will help my defensive ratings out alot. But i could just be jumping the gun here. When Jorge is in Passable form he gets me 2 stars. So hopefully his form will bump back up to passable this weekend. The game overall went about as planned and I won 4-1. There midfield played pretty good as expected but there O-fense and D-fense let them down. First place in the divison!!! :) (for now) Around the League Donkey Rapers - vs - Witches 0 - 1 Fellow FOFC'er Johnny is the GM of the Witches. I think he got a tougher then expect game from the Donkey Rapers. They took the lead early with a goal from the star forward Peter crow. But they just couldnt find the net the rest of the game. Donkey's strong defense and there excellent goalie John Youngblood kept them in the game. But in the end.... The Witches prevailed. ESAD - vs - Green Mages 0 - 2 Im kinda surprised that the Green Mages only won this game 2-0. They dominated the possession by 64% and 76% but they just kept blowing there scoring chances. Boston Bulldogs - vs - PoBOXTeam 3 - 1 I think i may have underestimated the bulldogs. They played a pretty good game today. After looking over there team ratings there team doesnt look quite as bad as i had originaly thought. There still few players away from contending, but it should be interesting to watch them over the course of the season and see how they progress. -------Team----------------Played--------Goals---------Points 1.

Quick update
It seems my divison isnt so weak after all. According to http://usa.hatstats.info/ We are the 26th strongest League in Divison V out of 256. I guess with the Bulldogs recent turn around and the Mages, Witches, Rapers and me all being pretty good teams this could be a very interesting Divison to watch :) Stay tuned...... |
I see that Mr. Ortega will definitely be leaving the Misfitz... that's the way it goes though. Once you are selling out your new digs you'll be all "Seth who?" :)
|
yeah... ill miss him. but when the 15,000 seat Arena is rocking during home games it will make it all worth it :)

Breaking news update!!!!
well... once again i woke up earley as shit in the morning and had nothing better to do before work, so i scanned the Transfer market for awhile. Mainly looking at passable keepers. i came across about 5 that i was interested in. But they all quickly went out of my price range. I was just looking for bargins.... no serious bidding really. But i place a 53k big on this one guy 2 hours before the bidding was up. and wouldn't ya know it...... NOONE ELSE BID!!!! i got a passable keeper for 53k!! i was so happy i was jumping up and down in my apartment!! :) The other 4 guys i was bidding on went for between 80k-100k.and one went for 65k (he was 32 years old) So once again i get a lucky break on the Transfer market. I suck at pulling youth but im getting lucky buying players. here's my new starting goalie. Vlad "The Impaler" Nutiu 194 000 US$, 30 years, weak form Has inadequate experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: excellent Keeper: passable Playmaking: wretched Passing: wretched Winger: wretched Defending: wretched Scoring: disastrous Set Pieces: weak he's 30 and his value is pretty high. i dont think he'll be declining to Inadequate anytime soon :) My team is basically complete now. i wont have to buy anyone else off the market for awhile. maybe an occansional young trainee but besides that, im good. The bidding on Seth Ortega is up to 170k with about 13 hours to go. Im hopeing to get at least 200k for him, But hopefully much more. i guess we'll have to wait and see. Stay tuned |
Breaking News.....
Seth Ortega Sold today for 247k to a divison V club in England. He will be missed but that money is well worth it. In 9 days my arena will seat 15,150 Screaming Misfitz Fans!!! Ill have 10,000 Terraces seats, 4,000 Basic Seats, 1,000 Seats under roof and 150 VIP seats. It came out to exactly 200k. My Financial report so far this weak looks like this.........

Good luck in your cup match Havok!
Johnny - Witches |
im gonna get creamed!!
i just said to hell with it and played my back-ups and PIC'ed it |
I don't know if you already have a clown on your team already but, if not, I'd look for one fairly quick. You should be able to find a non-playing clown for cheap that will let you counteract Yuri's, ahem, "disposition". I still think he's a good buy for that price and what he can bring to the team at this point, you'll just need to work around him with a clown. I also think Nutiu is a good buy. He's not your "keeper of the future" at 30 but hopefully you'll have enough to afford a younger solid by the time you need one anyhow. Or, y'know, win the FOFC "You Suck!" award with a solid keeper youth pull. :)
PS - Given Yuri's disposition and the definition of a Hattie 'clown', can we call Yuri 'assclown'? (Perhaps not to his face.) Edit: Because I spell like bbor. *sigh* |

Season - 1 - USA Cup - Round 3
Maniacal Misfitz - VS - THE BRONCOS Unless god himself comes down and grants the Misfitz a miricle ill be out of the USA cup after this game. I've drawn a very tough Divison 4 team. He averages around 29-31 stars a game. So i've decided im just gonna play my back-ups and PIC the game. I think if i played my starters and MOTS'ed it i'd have a small chance of winning. But the hit to my teams Spirit just isnt worth it. I'll just take my ass-whopping here and move on. Starters Gk - Vladimir Nutiu (my new goalie) Right Wingback - Johan Nilsson Central Defender 1 - Blaine Dent Cebtral Defender 2 - Kahudi Widodo Simon Cebtral Defender 3 - Jökull Herjólfsson Left Wingback - Jesper Lindhquist Right Winger - Einar Markhus Inner Midfielder 1 - Leo Dugan Inner Midfielder 2 - Jerome Hidalgo Left Winger - Per Godland Forward - Yuri Ruiter (my new forward) Subs Gk - Jorge Valdés Defender - Chip Vogt Inner Midfielder - Alexander Blanco Winger - Charles Eddy Forward - Stuart Troutt I'll be playing my new passable Goalie and my new Starting Forward so there form doesnt drop for not playing a league game this week. But besides that im playing all back-ups. Im also running a 5-4-1 for the first time so i can train 5 defender's. The Match At Maniacal Misfitz Arena, 7000 punters turned up, and despite threatening clouds at the horizon, no rain came. Maniacal had chosen a strategic 5-4-1 formation. They fielded: Nutiu - Nilsson, Simon, Herjólfsson, Dent, Lindhquist - Markhus, Dugan, Hidalgo, Godland - Ruiter. BRONCOS tactics involved an interesting 3-4-3 combination. They fielded: Gore - Borgsten, Hultlind, Josefsson - Dobrea, Grimes, Cunningham, van Asseldonk - Högskär, Wright, Tomlin. A mistake by the home sides central defence in the 8:th minute allowed Ty Tomlin to score 0 - 1 for BRONCOS. Jökull Herjólfsson of Maniacal received a yellow card in the 20:th minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. After 27 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for Keith Grimes who increased BRONCOS´s lead to 0 - 2. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, BRONCOS´s Keith Grimes got himself booked. In the 36:th minute the visitors put themselves ahead 0 - 3 as Ty Tomlin finished off an attack from the left with a spectacular scissors kick. Keith Grimes increased the visitors lead by putting a volley shot away on a pass from the right. 0 - 4. By now BRONCOS were drawing the troops back in order to defend their lead. 0 - 4 was the half-time score. BRONCOS held the ball, with a clear 72 percent possession rate. BRONCOS´s Keith Grimes made it through the home teams defence in the 64:th minute, and had only to place the ball in an unguarded goal when the home side´s defender sprang up from the left, clearing the ball on the line. In the game's 70:th minute Maniacal´s Yuri Ruiter limped slightly after a late challenge, but he was able to continue. After 73 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for Ĺke Hultlind who increased BRONCOS´s lead to 0 - 5. BRONCOS's Mats Josefsson scored 0 - 6 by shooting accurately and hard from a long distance, leaving the opponent goalie no other option than to pick up the ball from the net. BRONCOS´s Ted Wright received a play slashing through the home side´s defense in the 80:th minute, chipping it past the keeper scoring 0 - 7. The home crowd was not pleased with that one. BRONCOS´s Keith Grimes received a play slashing through the home side´s defense in the 88:th minute, chipping it past the keeper scoring 0 - 8. The home crowd was not pleased with that one. By then Keith Grimes was a three time scorer - a hat trick! BRONCOS held the ball, with a clear 75 percent possession rate. The most dominating Maniacal player was without a doubt Yuri Ruiter. Jökull Herjólfsson on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating BRONCOS player was without a doubt Wally Gore. However, Ted Wright made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 8.

My first non-friendly loss ever :( ohh well, no biggie. He even played his back-up midfielders but he played his starting forwards and they killed me. ok.... lets try to find some good in all this shall we??. My new goalie played ok considering he's in weak form. Hopefully he'll get to Inadequate or higher for my league match on sunday so he can put up 2 1/2 stars. Both my young wingback's played pretty good getting 2 stars a piece and my new forward Yuri played ok getting 2 stars.... he probally would have had 2 1/2 but he got an injury during the game. He's bruised but playing.... i might rest him during the next league game if he's still injured and play my young back-up forward Per Godland. I'll wait and see. The Bad.... well alot of players played like shit. Both my wingers did but i'm pretty sure i know why. I played them both Defensive and neither one of them are any good defensive. Blain Dent played like crap again.... hopefully his form will go up from Wretched soon. Jökull Herjólfsson also played like shit... his form is wretched also. I only lost 3 supporters which isnt to bad considering how bad we got crushed, But my Team Confidence went from Strong to wretched!!!!. since i PIC'ed the game my Team Spirit only dropped 1 level to Calm. Up next... Training update |
Training Update
Not a bad training week. i had one starter bump in defending. Ismael Ferreria Da Silva bumped to passable Defending. He's been a 2 star a game guy so far... hopefully soon he'll start grabing me 2 1/2 stars a game. He's the only one that bumped but i got a few more who are very close. It was a average form week. 3 guys increased there form (2 starters) 3 guys lost form ( 2 starters) My new goalie dropped to poor form :( So i have a Inadequate Goalie with Inadequate form and a passable goalie with Poor form. Ill just play Vlad my passable goalie. Hopefully he'll grab me 2 stars but more then likely he'll only grab me 1 1/2. Lucky for me im playing one of the worse teams in the league this week so it shouldn't matter to much. Kahudi Widodo Simon is starting to worry me a little. He's a starting inner mid and his form has went from Solid to weak in the past 3 weeks. Hopefully he'll turn it around soon or i might have to replace him. Up next, Economy update and youth pull.... |
Newbie question....is there any way to track skill/form changes other than keeping records of what they were pre-training?
|
Those of us not insanely meticulous with our records like DataKing (you can see how he gets that name!) generally go with an external program. The two common ones I've heard mentioned here have been HAM and HattrickPoli. HAM will require a registration of $7 beyond the first month. But it's Hattrick-approved and will allow you to fetch match results. HattrickPoli is still waiting approval and not quite as fleshed out at the moment but will still allow you to track your changes.
|
yeah... i use Hattrickpoli
its pretty good |
Thanks guys. How often should I upload the *.hrf file for HattickPoli?

People with sanity probably look at it most gamedays and possibly some time after the update occur to see if any popping occurs.
Proper Hattrick-a-holic, of course, loads it daily. Just in case. |
Youth Pull
My Youth pull sucked big time again. I cant really remember his skills very much because when i pulled him last night it was 3:30 in the morning and i was drunk as hell. But Im pretty sure they were all mostly wretched. My youth squad is still at Inadequate but i think it will bump to passable next week.

Season - 1 - League Game - Round - 3
Maniacal Misfitz - vs - PoBOXTeam This week i play The PoBOXTeam, this is the first team i ever played. Last time i played them was the last game of last season. I won 3-0.There team is a little better now and so is mine. But im still clearly the better team. I shouldn't have a problem beating these guys. There's another important game being played today aswell. The Witches (Owned by fellow FOFC'er Johnny) takes on the leagues best team The Green Mages. Im really hoping Johnny can pull out a win or even a tie would be nice cause then if i win, i'll have soul possession of first place. Starters GK- Vladimir Nutiu Right Wingback - Ignacio Ceballos Central Defender 1 - Omar Nairn Central Defender 2 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Left Wingback - Chip Fountaine Right Winger - Charles Eddy Inner Mid 1 - Alexander Blanco Inner Mid 2 - Kahudi Widodo Simon Inner Mid 3 - Leo Dugan Left Winger - Stuart Troutt Forward - Yuri Ruiter (Captain) Subs GK - Jorge Valdés Defender - Blaine Dent Winger - Jesper Lindhquist Inner Mid - Alan Magennis Forward - Per Godland I have a couple new starters this week. My new gaolie Vlad "The Impaler" Nutiu and my new forward Yuri Ruiter will get there first league game starts for my team. Also Leo Dugan will make his first start this season as well, He'll be replacing Alan Magennis at Inner Mid. Im a little worried about a few players this game. Yuri is "bruised but playing" so i dont expect a big game outta him. Kahudi Widodo Simon's form is down to weak which is gonna hurt my midfield rating and my new goalie Vlad's form is at poor. Here we go! The Match The crowd of 4060 turning up at PoBOXTeam Arena today were greeted by some nasty showers of rain. PoBOXTeam started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. They fielded: Schuster - Martin, Baird, Lankford - Overstreet, Rouse, Gill, Stiles, Maza - Tyson, Cintron. Maniacal tactics involved an interesting 4-5-1 combination. They fielded: Nutiu - Ceballos, Nairn, Ferreira da Silv, Fontaine - Eddy, Simon, Blanco, Dugan, Troutt - Ruiter. PoBOXTeam had a good opportunity to take the lead as Donald Cintron came up the left side, but he struck the ball weakly and it went straight into thearms of Vladimir Nutiu. Alexander Blanco sailed high, high above the opponents as he headed the 0-1 in after a corner kick after 10 minutes of play. What ever got into Chip Fontaine, the crowd mumbled, as he suddenly struck a cross pass through the own defense - ending up right in front of PoBOXTeam´s Donald Cintron, who easily put the ball away for 1-1. Maniacal will have to do without Stuart Troutt for a time due to a bad foot injury. He was substituted by Jesper Lindhquist. PoBOXTeam could have put themselves ahead in the 41st minute as José Rouse missed a volley shot on a ball coming in from the right. In the 42nd minute Donald Cintron almost put the home team one ahead on a cross pass coming in from the right, but the shot went wide. Charles Eddy of Maniacal received a yellow card in the 43rd minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. The teams went for a half-time break at 1 - 1. PoBOXTeam held the ball, with a clear 55 percent possession rate. PoBOXTeam were very close to putting themselves one up in the 48:th minute as Donald Cintron got through, but failing in concentration, he shot the ball wide. PoBOXTeam´s Derrick Baird left the field after 48 minutes because of a nasty blow to the shin. His replacement was Terry Templeton. After 62 minutes Maniacals Yuri Ruiter made his way through the middle, putting the visitors up 1 - 2. Marty Lankford of PoBOXTeam received a yellow card in the 68:th minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. In the 70:th minute the visitors put themselves ahead 1 - 3 as Leo Dugan finished off an attack from the left with a spectacular scissors kick. Leo Dugan of Maniacal received a yellow card in the 74:th minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. PoBOXTeam held the ball, with a clear 62 percent possession rate. The most dominating PoBOXTeam player was without a doubt Lorenzo Maza. Kraig Schuster on the other hand, had a terrible day. Maniacal´s best player was Chip Fontaine. Leo Dugan on the other hand, had a terrible day.The match ends 1 - 3.

I won the game on the road which is good. But my team didnt play to well. I should have beaten this team by more then 3-1.This was my worst Midfield performance in a long time. Kahudi Widodo Simon's weak form hurt us alot. I hope he pull's out of it soon.... i cant have poor midfield ratings and expect to win very often. Losing Stuart Troutt for 4 weeks is gonna hurt alot. He's been my best winger this year and one of the better player's on my team. Lucky for me i have a couple good back-up wingers but its still gonna hurt my offense and my midfield alot. But the good news is my defense played very well even though my goalie played terrible. i got my first ever 3 star rating from Chip Fountaine and my other wingback Ignacio Ceballos got his first ever 2 1/2 star rating :) I think Ignacio is gonna pop to Solid defending very soon. Also my new forward Yuri played ok getting me 2 stars and scoring a goal. Hopefully he'll be fully healed by next game and put up the 2 1/2 star ratings i know he's capable of. Around The League CristinaFC3 - vs - Donkey Rapers 4 - 0 The poor Donkey Rapers.... They've only scored 1 goal in 3 league games now. There defense is very strong but there lack of midfield and offense is killing them. I thought they'd end the year around 3rd or 4th place. But with the way there playing now, there in danger of being auto-demoted. ESAD - vs - Boston Bulldogs 1 - 3 This game went pretty much as expected but it could have easly been 6-1. The Bulldogs dominated the ball possession and got alot of scoring chances, they're looking better and better every week. I play them in 2 weeks at there house so that should be a very tough game. Witches - vs - Green Mages 1 - 1 Well Johnny did it!!! a 1-1 tie against the best team in the divison is a victory in itself. If the Witches wouldn't have missed on some of there earlier scoring chances they could have pulled out the victory. But thanks to this tie, i now sit in first place in the divison all by myself!!! :) Team---------------------- Played------------- Goals------------ Points 1.

Breaking News.....
well... after a lackluster Midfield performance last week i realized that im kinda thin in the midfield department. So i decided to fix that today. I've just added 2 new midfielders to the squad and here they are!!!! Haldor Gravem (7557999) 22 years, poor form, healthy Has wretched experience and inadequate leadership abilities. Nationality: Norge Assessed value: 42 000 US$ Owner: Maniacal Misfitz Warnings: 0 Stamina: weak Goaltending: wretched Playmaking: inadequate Passing: passable Winger: weak Defending: weak Scoring: poor Set Pieces: wretched Paid 11,000 Haldor is an average middy. He wont blow anyone out of the water but once his form and stamina go up some he'll be a solid 2 star a game Offensive middy. Im pretty sure his stam and form will go up quickly because there not to bad now considering he hasn't played a game in a month and a half. Im also gonna try to get this guy some defensive training. if i can bump him to Inadequate defending he will be a good all-around middy. Mathias Liebers (3659315) 26 years, inadequate form, healthy Has poor experience and passable leadership abilities. Nationality: Deutschland Assessed value: 61 000 US$ Owner: Maniacal Misfitz Warnings: 0 Stamina: excellent Goaltending: disastrous Playmaking: inadequate Passing: inadequate Winger: poor Defending: poor Scoring: inadequate Set Pieces: wretched Paid 16,000 I like this guy :) He's another average 2 star a game Offensive Middy but His value is pretty high which leads me to believe he is a high Inadequate in playmaking. I've looked over his past games and he always gets at least 2 stars a game and in Solid form he's a 2 1/2 star a game which will be nice if i can ever get him to Solid form :) Ill be 41k in debt after this week if i dont sell someone so i decided to sell this guy........ Alan Magennis 52 000 US$, 18 years, inadequate form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: solid Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: inadequate Passing: poor Winger: wretched Defending: poor Scoring: passable Set Pieces: wretched I really have no use for him now. He was the first player i ever bought and he was gonna be a back-up forward for me but i've been playing him at Inner mid and he's only getting me 1 1/2 stars a game. But i have another back-up forward now and there's no point in keeping Alan around. Since he is only 18 and has passable scoring, good form, good stamina and good Assessed Value he should at least get me 30k but i have a feeling he'll go for a little higher. Press Announcement The Misfitz add 2..... In a not to surprising move Misfitz GM added 2 new Midfielders to the squad today. After yesterdays poor midfielding against POBOXteam, GM Bryan vowed to improve it. Haldor Gravem and Mathias Liebers were just bought hours ago and are expected to play in wednesday's friendly vs Ultra Nox. Chip Vogt was fired today in order to make room for the new midfielders and rumor has it that back-up forward/midfielder Alan Magennis will be put on the transfer wire by days end. Up next, This weeks Friendly Vs Ultra Nox..... |
Season - 1 - Friendly Game - Round 3
Ultra Nox - vs - Maniacal Misfitz Today we have a friendly vs Qwikshots "Ultra Nox". I'd much rather be playing a cup game but i have alot of guys in crappy form so this game will help alot. Qwikshot has built one hell of a team very fast, even though it took him 2 teams to get it right :) It should be a pretty boring game since im running a 5-4-1. Starters Right Wingback - Jesper Lindhquist Central Defender 1 - Jökull Herjólfsson Central Defender 2 - Kahudi Widodo Simon Central Defender 3 - Blaine Dent Left Wingback - Johan Nilsson Right Winger - Per Godland Inner Midfielder 1 - Mathias Liebers Inner Midfielder 2 - Haldor Gravem Left Winger - Einar Markhus Forward - Alan Magennis Like i said before i have a couple guys in really shitty form and i hope this game help's. Right now Einar Markhus is in poor form but he is very good winger, Im hoping i can get him to Inadequate(or higher) so he can fill in for Stuart Troutt(who is injuried) for my game 2 weeks from now vs The Bulldogs. I dont need him this week cause im playing a pretty crappy team. I also need Blaine Dent to get out of wretched form. He's a 23 year old passable defender and once i get him to Inadequate form im gonna sell him and buy a younger Defensive trainee. Both my new inner midfielders will play there first game with the squad today. Mathias Liebers is in inadequte form and Haldor Gravem is in poor form. Whoever plays the best of the two and has the best form by sunday will play in my league game. The Match A scorching day at Ultra Nox Arena, where 368 spectators were in place for today´s match. Ultra had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Supriyadi - Nuijens, Marusic, Emilsson - Hansson, Cabras, Delay, Isobe, Josefsson - Svarva , Zabawa. Maniacal tactics involved an interesting 5-4-1 combination. Lineup: Valdés - Lindhquist, Simon, Herjólfsson, Dent, Nilsson - Godland, Liebers, Gravem, Markhus - Magennis. Eli Svarva gave his Ultra the lead with 1 - 0, as he successfully challenged both the guests central defenders, then placed the ball unreachably at the goaltenders right post. In the 24:th minute Maniacals Blaine Dent received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Maniacal seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion about the organization of the team. Bartlomiej Zabawa should probably have put his team up another goal in the 29:th minute, but some great goaltending by Jorge Valdés kept the visitors in the game. In the 34:th minute Maniacals Mathias Liebers received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. In the games 37:th minute Ultra´s Tord Emilsson fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee booked Tord Emilsson for taking a dive. In the to 40:th minute a very unfortunate collision in the home teams penalty area led to Ultra´s Yuki Isobe being carried off the pitch and replaced by Jin Ming-Chung. The teams went for a half-time break at 1 - 0. Ultra held the ball, with a clear 73 percent possession rate. The Maniacal players spent the half-time break getting a rerun of the teams tactical organization. In the games 47:th minute, Tord Emilsson could have extended the lead, but his very hard free kick went just over the bar. Maniacal appeared unsure on how to play. Christian Hansson didn´t pace himself at all, and after a series of daring offensive runs he was too tired to help out in the defensive play. Jorge Valdés was caught napping a bit later as Tord Emilsson lifted a ball over him after a free kick, but the ball hit the bar, rebounding into the keepers arms. Einar Markhus made a run for the goal in the 81st minute but the home teams far left defense managed to sort the situation out in the end. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, Maniacal´s Johan Nilsson got himself booked. Maniacal seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion about the organization of the team. Ultra held the ball, with a clear 70 percent possession rate. Most important Ultra player was Tord Emilsson. Jin Ming-Chung on the other hand, had a terrible day.Most important Maniacal player was Jesper Lindhquist. Blaine Dent on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 0.

I thought i'd lose more like 2-0 or 3-0 so im happy only losing 1-0. The Bad..... Blaine Dent played like crap again... that wretched form is killing him, same with Jökull Herjólfsson. Haldor Gravem's poor form really hurt his game today, i thought with his poor form he still would have gotten 1 1/2 stars, i guess i was wrong :) and finally Per Godland, he only got 1 star cause he isnt a winger. He's a forward but since i had Alan playing forward i had to stick him somewhere and winger was the only spot open. The Good..... Mathias Liebers getting me 2 stars is a nice surprise. I thought he'd only get me 1 1/2 since he is in Inadequte form but he played well and got 2 stars. When i bought him the other day i had a feeling he was a "high" Inadequte playmaker since his assesed value was so high. I guess i was right. Both my back-up wingbacks played well and Einar Markhus got me 1 1/2 stars in poor form. Once i get this guy 2 passable form and Stuart Troutt comes back from his injury ill have two 2 1/2 star wingers.... that should help my attack out alot. P.S. - My next friendly will be vs another FOFC'er, Ill be playing Panther's Tomahawks. upnext.... This weeks Training update |
Training Update
Not a good week of training for me. Not a single dam defender popped. I have a feeling some are getting really close, so hopefully next week. A very bad form week aswell. 3 starter dropped in form and no starters bumped!!!! My wingers are becoming a serious problem right now. My Best Winger Stuart Troutt is injured for 3 more weeks (probally only 2 more), My other starting winger charles eddy just had his form drop to Inadequate which is a problem cause he's really not that great of a winger but since he was always in passable form or higher i always started him and he'd get 2 stars. Im not sure if he'll get 2 stars in inadequte form. My Replacment winger for Stuart is Jesper Lindhquist. he's a 2 star winger in passable form but he just dropped to inadequate form also!!! And my other back-up winger is in poor form. So im not sure what the hell im gonna do, but lucky for me im playing a pretty easy game this week so it shouldn't be a problem. But next week i have a tougher game so hopefully by then ill be a little more luck in the form department. Neither of my goalie's increased in form either. My passable goalie is still in poor form and my inadequate is still in inadequte form. So it looks like another 1 1/2 star showing from my goalie's :( . Form has been kicking my ass as of late. im tempted to train General for a week. But everyone tells me its a waste of time. I guess i'll wait a little longer and see what happens. 3 form increases - (no starters) 3 form decreases - (3 starters) in other news..... Not all is bad in the world of Hattrick for me today!!! Once again the Transfer market was very good to me. Since i bought a few midfielder's earlier this week i decided i didnt need this guy anymore.... Alan Magennis (8502503) 18 years, inadequate form, healthy A sympathetic guy who is calm and honest. Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities. Nationality: Ireland Assessed value: 52 000 US$ Wage: 888 US$/week including 20% Bonus Owner: Maniacal Misfitz Warnings: 0 Stamina: solid Goaltending: disastrous Playmaking: inadequate Passing: poor Winger: wretched Defending: poor Scoring: passable Set Pieces: wretched I was expecting to get around 35-45k form him but 2 newbies got into a bidding war and he finally went for 80k!!!!! I bought this guy like over a month ago for 35k and now i just sold him for 80k!!! the only thing thats different about him is his stamina is a little higher then when i bought him. Gotta love those Hattrick Newbie's!!!! :) Press Release Arena Upgrade complete........ The Manical Misfitz arena upgrade was finished today. The New Arena will seat up to 15,150 fans. There are 10,000 Terrace seats, 4,000 Basic seats, 1,000 Seats under the roof and 150 VIP box seats. Misfitz GM Bryan had this to say.... "This is a win-win situation, More seats for the fans and more revenue for the club. We will more then double the amount of money we make during home games now." The first game in the upgraded arena is on sunday vs league rival ESAD. up next, this weeks youth pull and economy update..... |

I would think because he is 17, you should be able to get some more. maybe not though...I would guess around 20k when it is done.
edit: Didn't see the wretched passing and stamina...so nevermind ;) |
League Game - Season 1 - Round 4
Maniacal Misfitz - vs - ESAD My first home game in my new stadium :) I should have no problem spanking ESAD. The owner is pretty active on the transfer market but his team is still pretty bad. They're in last place in the divison and they'll probally finish the year in 7th just above The Donkey Raper's. The Game of the week in my divison is The Green Mages - vs - Boston Bulldogs. Im sure the Green Mages will whip them pretty good and thats exactly what i want them to do, since i play The Bulldogs next week. I want there Team Spirit to be as low as possible. Starters GK - Vladimir Nutiu Right Wingback - Chip Fontaine Central Defender 1 - Omar Nairn Central Defender 2 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Left Wingback - Ignacio Ceballos Right Winger - Charles Eddy Inner Midfielder 1 - Alexander Blanco Inner Midfielder 2 - Mathias Liebers Inner Midfielder 3 - Ewen Buckley Left Winger - Johan Nilsson Forward - Yuri Ruiter (Team Captain) Subs GK - Jorge Valdés Defender - Dumitru Burghelea Inner Midfielder - Kahudi Widodo Simon Winger - Einar Markhus Forward - Per Godland 3 new starters from last week. Mathias Liebers and Ewen Buckley are new transfers that i just brought in. Johan Nilsson is normally a Wingback Trainee but since my star winger Stuart Troutt is out this week and my back-up winger is in poor form i decided to let Johan Nilsson get the start. He should to pretty good because he's in solid form but his Wretched Playmaking will hurt the midfield some. Vlad "The Impaler" Nutiu is still in poor form which is gonna hurt my defensive rating big time. If his form or Jorge's form dont improve after the next training update i might have to go grab a Inadequate goalie with passable form so i can get at least 2 stars a game until Vlad finally comes around. The Match Date: 4/28/2003 at 01:00 MatchID: 5555092 Arena: Maniacal Misfitz Arena Crowd: 8825 8825 spectators arrived at Maniacal Misfitz Arena, where weather conditions were pretty good for football. Maniacal tactics involved an interesting 4-5-1 combination. The following players had been chosen: Nutiu - Fontaine, Nairn, Ferreira da Silv, Ceballos - Eddy, Liebers, Buckley, Blanco, Nilsson - Ruiter. ESAD tactics involved an interesting 4-4-2 combination. The following players had been chosen: Sandér - Hook, MacCarthy, Sengupta, Cheng - Mccormick, Monzón, Bonilla, Danielsson - Perez, Cal. After a fine move down the middle Charles Eddy nearly gave the home side one up in the 10:th minute. The finishing shot went just wide, though. The referee showed ESADs Marcos Francisco Monzón the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Ismael Ferreira da Silva went down after a savage challenge, but could keep on playing after some medical attention. A well placed corner kick from Yuri Ruiter was followed by Alexander Blanco´s hard but accurate header. The nice combination meant 1-0 for Maniacal. Maniacal put themselves up 2 - 0 when Yuri Ruiter broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him. Halftime score was 2 - 0. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Maniacal, with an impressive 69 percent possession of the ball. A couple of quick and successful challenges, followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area after 46 minutes might have resulted in another goal for Maniacal. However, Olof Sandér made a spectacular save. In the 50:th minute of the match the visitors central line of defence had to look on as Chip Fontaine dashed through, knocking home 3 - 0 for Maniacal. The structure of the game started to change as Maniacal decided to pull back and meet their opponents in the defensive zone. Maniacal held the ball, with a clear 72 percent possession rate. Most important Maniacal player was Chip Fontaine. Vladimir Nutiu on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important ESAD player was Enrique Cal. Leslie Cheng on the other hand, had a terrible day.

I dominated the whole game as i expected. I thought i'd score a few more goals but since im missing my best offensive winger i guess im not really that surprised i only scored 3. My Defense put up its best performance ever. If only my dam PASSABLE! Goalie would get at least 2 stars a game my ratings would be Excellent/Excellent/Solid. Poor form sucks!! :) The Good - Omar Narin put up his first ever 2 1/2 star performance. His assesed value is at 55,000 now, i think he'll be popping to Solid defending soon. Chip Fontaine got another 3 stars for me and Ignacio Ceballos played great and got me 2 1/2 stars. My Man Yuri Ruiter!!!! He's finally not "bruised, but playing" and he gets me 2 1/2 stars!!!! I love it!!! payed 14,500 for a 2 1/2 star forward :) The Bad - Once again my goalie lets me down. I was all happy when i grabbed a Passable goalie for 53k, but now its coming back to bite me in the ass. His poor form is killing him and me!! Im not sure what im gonna do if he doesnt improve soon. Ewen Buckly only picked up 1 1/2 stars in his first start for my team. Im not to surprised, his weak stamina and Inadequate form are a problem. But that should work itself out in a few weeks. i have plenty of back-up midfields now so if he doesnt improve i'll have someone else come in and play. Around The League Green Mages - vs - Boston Bulldogs 3 - 1 Im glad the Green Mages won. The Bulldogs are gonna get crushed in there next cup game on wednesday aswell. So there Team Spirit and Team Confidence should be terrible for our game next weekend at there arena. Donkey Rapers - vs - PoBOXTeam 0 - 2 The "who cares" game of the week. Once again the Donkey Rapers didnt score a goal. There offense and midfield are just horrid. Witches - vs - CristinaFC3 7 - 1 Former FOFC'er Johnny won easy today. He put up his best stars ever. He has like 2 guys in Excellent form and a few more in solid and passable. Im not sure if he's training general or not but it cant last. I've only ever had 1 guy in excellent form and that lasted 1 week. League Standings Team--------------------Played-----------Goals------------Points 1.

Quick Update
Blaine Dent sold today for a little more the expected, 20,000 was the final bid. I cant say im not glad to see him go. His passable defense was nice but after 2 months of Wretched form he had to go. Hopefully he'll turn it around for his new squad. I've got 2 more guys up for sale, but they will probally only fetch between 1,000-5,000 tops. Im gonna place my Passable keeper on the transfer wire for 85k tonight. His poor form is driving me nutz. I doubt anyone will bite for 85k but if they do i'll use the money to buy another keeper. P.S. i also decided to place my inadequate goalie on the transfer wire for 40k. If someone bites and takes him i'll go buy another one cheaper. |
More Breaking News.....
well..... i just cant stop buying players :) I saw this guy on the market for well well below market price. Aron Capotă (10513810) 21 years, passable form, A controversial person who is balanced and dishonest. Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities. Speciality: Head Nationality: România Assessed value: 46 000 US$ Wage: 930 US$/week Owner: Pescarusul-Varasti Warnings: 0 Stamina: wretched Goaltending: disastrous Playmaking: weak Passing: passable Winger: weak Defending: inadequate Scoring: passable Set Pieces: passable i got him for 32k!!! but there's a catch..... he's injured for 4 weeks :( But since i already have 2 doctors because Stuart Trout is out and since this guy is only 20 he should be ready to go in 2 - 2 1/2 weeks. Then i can either sell him for 70-90k or i can sell my other passable/passable forward Yuri. Yuri probally will only sell for around 40k - 50k tops because he has solid leadership and he's controversial so he can hurt your TS if you dont have a clown. so in a few weeks i'll have a decision to make. But overall i think it was a good purchase. |
i just keep going and going and going.....
well... i just bought another player!! Since my Passable goalie is in poor form and playing like shit, i had to get another passable. i found this little gem in Canada. Ken Eastham (11304003) 20 years, passable form, healthy A controversial person who is temperamental and upright. Has disastrous experience and wretched leadership abilities. Nationality: Canada Assessed value: 180 000 US$ Wage: 1 520 US$/week Owner: Evil Warriors Warnings: 0 Stamina: wretched Goaltending: passable Playmaking: wretched Passing: wretched Winger: disastrous Defending: disastrous Scoring: disastrous Set Pieces: disastrous Only paid 66k :) So now i'll sell my back-up and i should break even. Late night in Canada you can find some nice deals. i saw a 21 year old passable keeper in passable form go for 63k 2 nights ago and a 24 year old solid keeper in inadequate form go for 163k last week.. So if anyone needs a keeper.... check out Canada :) |
havok, are you going to send anyone to the previctory party or does that put them at risk for the market? :) You keep buying all these players, the people that make your jerseys will become the second richest company behind microsoft or walmart(whoever it is) ;) good buys though!

LOL!!!

Friendly Game - Season 1
Maniacal Misfitz - vs - Tomahawks Today we have a friendly vs fellow FOFC'er Panther. My new passable goalie Ken Eastham will make his first career start for the Misfitz, Actually its his first pro start ever. Also starting in there first Misfitz game are my 2 new 17 year old defensive trainee's Rikard Larsson and Dumitru Burghelea. This should be a pretty boring game since im running my usual friendly 5-4-1 and Panther is running a 4-5-1. So i dont expect there to be much scoring. Starters GK - Ken Eastham Right Wingback - Johan Nilsson Central Defender 1 - Rikard Larsson Central Defender 2 - Dumitru Burghelea Central Defender 3 - Kahudi Widodo Simon Left Wingback - Jesper Lindhquist Right Winger - Einar Markhus (Captain) Inner Midfielder 1 - Amir Hajjaj Inner Midfielder 2 - Haldor Gravem Left Winger - Jerome Hidalgo Forward - Per Godland Subs GK - Vladimir Nutiu Defender - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Inner Midfielder - Ewen Buckley Winger - Charles Eddy Forward - Yuri Ruiter 2 of my new back-up midfielders will be playing today. But both of them are in bad form and have stamina issues so i dont expect very good games from them. The Match The crowd of 463 turning up at Maniacal Misfitz Arena today were greeted by some nasty showers of rain. Maniacal tactics involved an interesting 5-4-1 combination. They fielded: Eastham - Nilsson, Simon, Burghelea, Larsson, Lindhquist - Markhus, Gravem, Hajjaj, Hidalgo - Godland. Tomahawks tactics involved an interesting 4-5-1 combination. They fielded: Hedwald - Gorham, Titus, Swancutt, Beckmann - Hicks, Pitts, Marsh, Phan, Adamson - Bethea. Maniacal took the lead in the 8:th minute after a magnificent free kick. Einar Markhus adjusted the score to 1 - 0. In the 11th minute Maniacals Kahudi Widodo Simon received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Cleo Marsh of Tomahawks received a yellow card in the 20:th minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Jesper Lindhquist received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly, probably out of lack of experience, in the 23rd minute and almost caused an opponent to score. In the 29:th minute Tomahawkss Miguel Adamson received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. A couple of quick and successful challenges, followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area after 35 minutes might have resulted in another goal for Maniacal. However, Peter Hedwald made a spectacular save. Tomahawks seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion about the organization of the team. Halftime score was 1 - 0. Maniacal, bringing the final ball possession rate to 57 percent, dominated the battle. During the break Tomahawks´s coach went through the teams new tactics yet again. Maniacal put themselves up 2 - 0 when Einar Markhus broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him. The structure of the game started to change as Maniacal decided to pull back and meet their opponents in the defensive zone. Jesper Lindhquist wasn´t fit enough for a full game made several mistakes out of sheer tiredness. One of them was exploited by Nicholas Gorham who squeezed in 2-1. Maniacal seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion about the organization of the team. Amir Hajjaj almost managed to score another goal for Maniacal, but his header was tipped to a corner by the visitors goalie. The home side´s Haldor Gravem came close to extending the lead in the 87:th minute. His shot came in off the right hand side but Peter Hedwald managed saving with a fingernail. Tomahawks appeared unsure on how to play. 87 minutes into the game Tomahawks´s Jack Phan found a gap in the home sides central defense scoring with a long shot, making it 2 - 2. Maniacal held the ball, with a clear 64 percent possession rate. The most dominating Maniacal player was without a doubt Ken Eastham. Haldor Gravem on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating Tomahawks player was without a doubt Miguel Adamson. Ty Titus was a disappointment, however. The match ends 2 - 2.

I got away injury free some thats all i care about. The Good - My new goalie Ken Eastham played great, getting me 2 1/2 stars. My back-up forward kinda shocked me,Per Godland put up 2 stars in weak form. So that means in Passable form he will put up 2 1/2 stars, the reason that surprises me is because he's a passable scorer but he's only a weak passer. I guess he's a pretty high passable. The Bad - Both my new inner mid's played terrible. Amir Hajjaj and Haldor Gravem only put up 1 star a piece. Im seriously considering training form next week and then stamina the week after that. But i really dont wanna lose 2 weeks of defensive training. we'll see whats happens after tommarrow's training update. Around The League The Green Mages lost there cup game today 4-0 and they also lost another starting midfielder. So when they play me in 2 weeks they'll be missing 2 inner midfeidlers. So i might actually have a shot at a tie. Maybe even a win!!!! Im praying they get another player injured this week in there league game :) Upnext, this weeks training update |
Breaking News....
well... i've totally lost my mind :) i've bought yet another middy....... Stephane Rohn (5093232) 22 years, solid form, A sympathetic guy who is balanced and upright. Has wretched experience and weak leadership abilities.

But i should be able to get that back to zero after i sell my back-up passable goalie and my young passable defender. Then all i'll have to buy is a 17 year old defensive trainee for 1-4k. |
Training update
wooohoooo!!! Lots of good news to talk about today. First off i just sold my crappy 30 year old passable goalie in poor form for 101k!!!! God i love Hattrick newbies. So that cleared up alot of my debt problems right there. And as for training, this is my best Form week in a LONG time. 6 guys went up in Form and only 1 dropped. Unfortunetly the 1 that dropped was my best Inner mid who puts up 2 1/2 stars a game. Hopefully he will still get me 2 1/2 stars in inadequate form. My 17 year old Wingback Trainee Johan Nilsson just hit excellent form. Im gonna start him at central Defender this week and i expect 2 1/2 stars out of him. My STUD wingback Chip Fontaine (Passble winger/Solid Defender) just hit Solid form. He'll get me 3 stars, maybe 3 1/2 if im lucky but i doubt it. Ismael Ferreira da Silva my 19 year old Passable defender/inadeqaute Playmaker just hit passable form. I decided to play him at inner mid this week since my 3rd best inner mid is out and my 4th best inner mid will have to play wing. Omar Nairn my 20 year old passable defender(soon to be solid i think) just hit passable form, he might grab me 3 stars but more then likely he'll get me 2 1/2 again. Kahudi Widodo Simon Finally got back to Inadequte form. Normally i'd put him back at inner mid but since im short of wingers this week i'll play him at wing. He might get 2 stars on wing if my lucky. But his excellent stamina and inadequate playmaking should help my midfield rating out. Per Godland My back-up forward just hit inadequate form. and finally... my only form drop, but it was kind of a big one. Alexander Blanco My star midfielder and leading goal scoring in the league dropped to inadequate form :( hopfully he'll still put up 2 1/2 stars. i guess we'll have to wait and see. I had 1 player bump in defending, Jesper Lindhquist my other back-up wingback bumped to passable defending. Since he's 20 years old im gonna sell him and buy a 17 year old Wingback trainee. I should get close to 30k for jesper which is good considering i bought him a month ago for 1,000. So all in all it's been a very good week. After selling Vlad tonight im only 21k in the hole and once i sell Jesper and buy a wingback trainee i should be even. But i have back-to-back road games coming up so i'll go about 85k in debt after those 2 weeks unless i get a good youth pull or sell someone. We'll see what happens. P.S. opps....i forgot to add my Teams value and players Value. Total Team Value - $1,325,000 (24 players) Average Player Value - $55,208 Upnext, this weeks youth pull and economic update..... |

But since i have a passable goalie up for bid and a young passable wingback, i should pretty much be even by the start of next week. This is the first week of my back-to-back away games. But after next week its smooth sailing for the rest of the season. Im looking pretty good in the economy department, and now that im daytrading Goalie's some, i should be start making a nice profit every week... i hope :) Upnext, this weeks league game |

League Game - Season 1 - Round 5
Boston Bulldogs - vs - Maniacal Misfitz This week we take on the Bulldogs at there house. They aren't a bad team at all. If there owner would add a few players they could be very tough. They run a 4-4-2 and there midfield gets a weak rating sometimes even with only having 4 middy's. I expect them to finish 4th place this year, maybe 3rd if they're lucky and the Witches screw up. Starter GK - Ken Eastham Right WIngback - Ignacio Ceballos Central Defender 1 - Omar Nairn Central Defender 2 - Johan Nilsson Left Wingback - Chip Fontaine Right Winger - Charles Eddy Inner Midfielder 1 - Alexander Blanco Inner Midfielder 2 - Mathias Liebers Inner Midfielder 3 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Left Winger - Kahudi Widodo Simon Forward - Yuri Ruiter (Captain) Subs GK - Tong Udom Defender - Jesper Lindhquist Inner Mifielder - Ewen Buckley Winger - Einar Markhus Forward - Per Godland Since my star winger is still hurt and my back-up winger Einar Markus is still in poor form, i have to play Kahudi Widodo Simon at winger. He's only a weak winger but he's got Excellent Stamina and Inadequate Playmaking so i'll play him towards the middle. And since my number 3 inner middy is hurt I'll be playing Ismael Ferreira da Silva at inner mid. He's got Inadequate Playmaking,Solid Stamina and passable defense, He usually starts at central defender but im a little short on Inner mid's in good form at the moment so he'll have to play midfield today. The Match 5/5/2003 at 01:00 MatchID: 5555098 Arena: Boston Bulldogs Arena Crowd: 7000 Weather conditions were fairly good for football, and Boston Bulldogs Arena saw a crowd turnout of 7000. Bulldogs had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Davidson - Dickens, Cerda, Baron, Gentile - Franklin, Lange, Posey, de Vega - Miner, Calvert. Maniacal had chosen a strategic 4-5-1 formation. Lineup: Eastham - Ceballos, Nairn, Nilsson, Fontaine - Eddy, Liebers, Ferreira da Silv, Blanco, Simon - Ruiter. Bulldogs created a good opportunity to score in the games 9:th minute when Adam Posey`s hooked ball created a scuffle in front of the goal, and the visitors defenders had a hard time clearing the ball. Charles Eddy of Maniacal received a yellow card in the 25:th minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. After a fine move down the middle Wesley Calvert nearly gave the home side one up in the 29:th minute. The finishing shot went just wide, though. After 38 minutes Maniacals Alexander Blanco made his way through the middle, putting the visitors up 0 - 1. In the games 40:th minute Alexander Blanco nearly put the visitors another one up as he broke through and fired from just outside the box, his shot passed just over the bar. 0 - 1 was the half-time score. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Maniacal, with an impressive 51 percent possession of the ball. One of many good passes from Charles Eddy at the wing was recieved and skillfully taken care of by Yuri Ruiter, scoring for Maniacal to 0 - 2. In the games 50:th minute Yuri Ruiter nearly put the visitors another one up as he broke through and fired from just outside the box, his shot passed just over the bar. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, Maniacal´s Omar Nairn got himself booked. Maniacal had, after 68 minutes of the game, worked the left side industriously, creating several opportunities to add to their lead, but somehow didn´t achieve closure. The home side attempted to get through in the middle and had a good chance of pulling one back as Wallace Miner tried lifting the ball over goalie Ken Eastham. Typically, the ball went just over the bar. Bulldogs held the ball, with a clear 51 percent possession rate. Most important Bulldogs player was Billy Cerda. Wesley Calvert was a disappointment, however. Most important Maniacal player was Chip Fontaine. However, Kahudi Widodo Simon made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 2.

I was hoping for more then 2 goals but without Stuart Trout in the lineup, my team hasnt been scoring as much. But he should be ready to go next week. This is my highest NSI rating ever and my highest stars per game as well. I keep getting better and better every week. The Good - My defense as a whole played great. they put up 12.5 stars total which is a Misfitz best. They are really starting to come together and with Omar and Ingnacio both very close to popping to solid defending soon (i think) they should only get better. Im hoping for a couple 13.5-14 stars a game from them before this season is out. The Bad - Kahudi Widodo Simon only got 1 1/2 stars on wing but im not to mad, He isnt a winger. Johan Nilsson didnt play bad, but i just thought that since he was in excellent form that he would get 2 1/2 stars. Good game all around for my guys. Next week i take on the best team in the league, The Greenmages at there house :( They put up between 26.5 - 28 stars a game and there NSI ratings are between 50 - 57. So i've got alot of thinking to do this week. I'll probally try to stack my midfield and go for a 0 - 0 tie. We'll see how my team looks after the training update. Around The League CristinaFC3 - vs - Green Mages 0 - 6 no surprise here. Easy win for The Mages. I was hoping they'd get a couple injuries this week since i play them next week but they didn't :( PoBOXTeam - vs - Witches 3 - 0 holy crap!!! i was in complete shock here. The owner of POBOXteam hasnt logged in for like 3 weeks and The Witches have been on a roll latley. They tied the greenmages (even thought the Mages screwed up and played the wrong guy at inner mid and it cost them the win) and they scored 7 goals last week VS CristinaFC3. This really helps me out. Unless something crazy happens i've all but locked up second place in the divison now. Thanx PoBOXTeam!!! ESAD - vs - Donkey Rapers 1 - 1 The "Who gives a shit" game of the week. Neither one of these guys have any points this year. I thought ESAD would win since there midfield is poor and the Donkey Rapers midfield is disastrous. But for some unknown reason ESAD decided to play a 5-3-2. This guy really doesnt know what he's doing. He's spent a bunch of money on the transfer market and his team still sucks bigtime. I sent him a PM a couple weeks ago asking him if he wanted to join us here at FOFC and if he had any Hattrick questions just ask me. But he didnt reply so i guess he likes being in last place :) League Standing ---------Team------------------Played------------Goals------------Points 1.

Breaking News.....
I've been looking for another winger for awhile. My best winger Stuartt Trout is injured but he should be ready to go this weekend. My second best winger is stuck in poor form and my number 3 winger has been playing well, but he dropped to inadequate form 2 weeks ago and this past week his value dropped another 2k, so i think he's about to drop to weak form. So i decided to find another winger. i came across this guy and couldn't pass him up. Willem Herben (5361367) 30 years, solid form, healthy A controversial person who is balanced and honest. Has inadequate experience and wretched leadership abilities. Nationality: Nederland Assessed value: 31 000 US$ Wage: 900 US$/week including 20% Bonus Owner: Maniacal Misfitz Warnings: 0 Stamina: solid Goaltending: disastrous Playmaking: inadequate Passing: poor Winger: passable Defending: weak Scoring: wretched Set Pieces: wretched Paid 10k Now he's not gonna score a million goals or anything. But in his current form he gets 2 1/2 stars. He'll be a good quick and cheap fix until i can get some money and buy a really good one. |
Somebody stop me!!!
ok... i swear this is the last guy i'll buy until im back in the green. I'm getting addicted to buying injured guys for really cheap prices. this is my 3rd one in 2 weeks. Ma Viet-Tan (5093266) 2 31 years, passable form, injured (2 weeks) A popular guy who is temperamental and honest. Has inadequate experience and wretched leadership abilities. Speciality: Powerful Nationality: Singapore Assessed value: 46 000 US$ Wage: 1 428 US$/week including 20% Bonus Owner: FC Dubak Warnings: 0 Stamina: passable Goaltending: wretched Playmaking: passable Passing: inadequate Winger: wretched Defending: passable Scoring: wretched Set Pieces: poor Paid 22k when he heals, he should be a dam good inner mid. he put up 3 stars about a month ago and in his last few games he's put up 2 1/2. He's kinda old but he's got another season or 2 left in him. |
"Hi, my name is Havok. And I'm a shop-a-holic." :)
Nice buys, though. Viet-tan should be a nice midfielder to have. Who will Herben replace? Plus, y'know, now we can safely talk about your 'Ma'. :) |
you are aware that there is a decent chance that he won't be healed in 2 weeks and may never heal again. a lot of older players just don't recover. hope he does though, but either way you only spent 22k.
|
Quote:
He'll replace Charles Eddy. Charles has gotten me 2 stars a game in every game he's ever played for me, but his form is droping and he'd make a better back-up winger then a starter. Quote:
Yeah, i thought about that before i bought him. But if he still isnt healed in like 3-4 weeks i'll sell him and try to make back the money i spent. I gotta keep my fingers crossed :) |
Good luck on healing him
|
With all these fix-me-up projects you have, how many doctors do you lug around?
|
i only have 2 doctors right now. But everyone is healing very fast.
2 doctors seems to cut healing time by about 1/3. I should be injury free by late next week if im lucky. |
Season 1 - Friendly Game - Round 5
Boston Wyckyd Sceptre - vs - Maniacal Misfitz Today we take on Ronnie's Sceptre's for a friendly at his stadium. Should be a pretty boring affair because we both run a 5-4-1. Im still looking for my first Friendly win of the season. Im 0-1-1 in friendly's this year, not like it matters but it's always more fun to win :) Starters GK - Jorge Valdés Right Wingback - Kahudi Widodo Simon Central Defender 1 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Central Defender 2 - Rikard Larsson Central Defender 3 - Dumitru Burghelea Left Wingback - Daniel Schulz Right Winger - Einar Markhus (Captain) Inner Midfielder 1 - Stephane Rohn Inner Midfielder 2 - Amir Hajjaj Left Winger - Willem Herben Forward - Per Godland I've got a couple starters playing in this game. I bought Stephane Rohn last week while he was injured so i had to play him today to help keep his form up. He's still "bruised but playing" but i still expect a 2 star game out of him. Willem Herben is my new starting winger that i bought yesterday. But since he hasn't played since last Wednesday, i'll have to play him today. He should put up 2 1/2 stars and kick some butt :) This is the last friendly before we start the FOFC cup. So im hoping for some good performances out of my back-ups. Lets see how they do...... The Match 5/8/2003 at 01:00 MatchID: 6980047 Arena: Globo-Chem Center for the Performing Arts Crowd: 718 718 spectators arrived at Globo-Chem Center for the Performing Arts, where weather conditions were pretty good for football. Sceptre had chosen a strategic 5-4-1 formation. Lineup: Noel - Sörensson, Longhurst, Clifton, King, Lehman - Floyd, Isaacs, Beebe, Gee - English. Maniacal had chosen a strategic 5-4-1 formation. The following players had been chosen: Valdés - Simon, Ferreira da Silv, Burghelea, Larsson, Schulz - Markhus, Rohn, Hajjaj, Herben - Godland. Roy Lehman behaved like an inexperienced youth player in the 16:th minute as he gave the ball away to an opponent. Lucky for him though, there was no goal. A mistake by the home sides central defence in the 20:th minute allowed Daniel Schulz to score 0 - 1 for Maniacal. Stephane Rohn increased the visitors lead by putting a volley shot away on a pass from the right. 0 - 2. Some fine manouvering on the left lead to an 34:th minute Maniacal goal, making it 0 - 3. Per Godland was noted down as the scorer. In the 34:th minute Maniacals Stephane Rohn received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. In the 40:th minute Maniacals Einar Markhus received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. The teams went for a half-time break at 0 - 3. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Maniacal, with an impressive 68 percent possession of the ball. Johan Sörensson of Sceptre received a yellow card in the 53rd minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Maniacal's Willem Herben had in the 72nd minute a header that touched the bar, following yet another fine corner. The referee showed Sceptres Carroll Floyd the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Amir Hajjaj went down after a savage challenge, but could keep on playing after some medical attention. Maniacal came close to extending their lead as Kahudi Widodo Simon delivered a long range shot from the right but the angle was to sharp, and the shot hit the side of the goal. Sceptres Taylor Clifton got himself booked after a foul. Maniacal came close to extending their lead as Amir Hajjaj delivered a long range shot from the right but the angle was to sharp, and the shot hit the side of the goal. In the 90:th minute Sceptres Graeme Longhurst received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Maniacal´s Per Godland refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon in the 90:th minute. Maniacal held the ball, with a clear 88 percent possession rate. The most dominating Sceptre player was without a doubt Philip Noel. Carrol English was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Maniacal player was without a doubt Willem Herben. Amir Hajjaj on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 0 - 3.

Im overall pretty happy with this game. It was pretty boring, but i scored more then i thought i would. I got 2 guys injured late in the second half, but lucky for me they are both back-up's and they are just "Bruised but playing". The Good - Stephane Rohn my new inner middy played like a beast!! 2 1/2 stars while he's "bruised but playing". Not bad for only 27k, Im very impressed. he should be at full strength by sunday, and im gonna need him. Willem Herben my new winger played like a stud aswell. Posting 2 1/2 stars and just plain kicking ass up and down the wing all day long. The Bad - Amir Hajjaj played like crap again. His weak form and weak stamina are hurting him bigtime. He's a passable playmaker with Weak passing and inadequate defending. Once his form and stamina go up he'll be a good back-up inner mid. But for now he's playing like shit! Upnext, this weeks training update..... |

Oooh, that is good to know. I didn't know how many would be good so when my midfielder went down, I panicked and snagged 3 doctors. |
you can never have to many doctors :)
More good news is that Ma Viet-Tan is healing. His value went up 1,000 after the last player update which means he is healing. So i expect him back in a couple weeks. |
Thanks for the friendly... ugh, disastrous midfield? I think I'm going to have to "rent" a few ** midfielders so I can put a decent showing in at the cup... good luck with your group!
|
Im not sure what im gonna do in the FOFC cup. i might throw a couple starters in there from time to time. But im still gonna run a 5-4-1 cause i have alot of young defensive trainee's.
we'll see :) |
Training Update
It was a dam good week training wise. I had 3 guys bump in defending. Thats by far the most i've ever had in 1 week. Kahudi Widodo Simon bumped to passable defending. he's like my all around kinda guy. i can play him almost anywhere and he'll play pretty good. Dumitru Burghelea a 17 year old defensive trainee bumped to passable defending aswell. I just bought him 2 weeks ago so that makes me pretty happy. Hopefully i can get him to Solid defending by the end of the season. And last but not least.... Ignacio Ceballos bumped to Solid defending. I knew he was gonna bump soon. Now i have 2 Solid wingbacks... its gonna be tough to score on me from the wings :) Form It was a crazy form week. Bad and good all at the same time. 6 - Guys increased there form (4 starters) 6 - guys decreased in form (3 starters) Increases Ignacio Ceballos - bumped to Solid Form and bumped to solid defending. Im looking for 3 stars out of him on sunday. Ismael Ferreira da Silva - Bumped to Solid form, he's a starting central defender with inadequte playmaking and solid stamina. i think im gonna play him offensive on sunday because i need a midfield boost. Kahudi Widodo Simon - Bumped to passable defending and passable form. Im not sure where im gonna play him on sunday. Charles Eddy - bumped back up to passable form. He might play winger on sunday if Stuart troutt isnt fully healed. Per Godland - my back-up forward bumped up to passable form, which will be good for the first round of the FOFC cup on wednesday. Haldor Gravem - he bumped to weak form. but he will be sold tommarrow night so it doesnt matter. Decreases Dumitru Burghelea - Defensive trainee bumped to passable defending and dropped to passable form. Stephane Rohn - My new inner middy who played like a stud yesterday in my friendly dropped to inadequate form :( Ma Viet-Tan - another new inner middy who is injured at the moment dropped to inadequte form. Stuart Trout - dropped to inadequte form. He's been injured for the past 2 1/2 weeks so i kind of expected this. Hopefully he'll get back up to passable after this weeks games. Ken Eastham - i have no luck with goalie's. all of my goalie's drop in form when i play them. He dropped to inadequte form so i guess i'll only get 2 stars out of him this weekend. Jorge Valdés My back-up goalie countines his form drop. he's now down to weak form. I'll probally sell him next week and buy another inadequte. Inadequate goalie's are going for pretty cheap right now because everyone seems to be pulling goalie's with there youth pulls. Other News Well.....i placed a passable goalie on the transfer market earlier in the week for 140k, and wouldn't ya know it??? some noob actually bought him :) That help's alot. I'll only be around 15k in debt by the end of the week. Upnext, this weeks econmic update and youth pull |

yet another useless player from my youth squad. Im 0 - 11 now. Im truly skilled at pulling useless players.

This is the second week of my back-to-back away games. So unless i sell someone this week i'll be around 65k in the hole after this week. But then 5 out of the last 8 games of the season im at home. I might sell 19 year old Kahudi Widodo Simon, he just hit passable defending and he's got Excellent stamina,inadequate Playmaking and weak passing. I'd probally get a nice price for him. The main reason im thinking of selling him is his age. I want a younger defensive trainee. I want all 5 of my trainee's to be 17 and if i sell Kahudi and buy a 17 year old they will be. Supporters I keep forgeting to thank everyone that supports me. I have 4 supporters and inreturn for them supporting me, im supporting them aswell. 1.

This week i take on The Green Mages. This is there forth season in Hattrick. He was in Divison IV last year but he got demoted. The Green Mages are definitly better then me. But this week is probally the best chance i'll have at tieing or even beating them. The reason is that they have 2 starting inner midfielder's out. One is a 18 year old inner mid that they bought for 1,000,000 bucks! a few weeks ago. So he's probally got excellent playmaking. And the other one puts up btw 2 - 2 1/2 stars a game. I only wish i was playing him at home :( Then i'd have a much better chance at a tie or win. He's got 1 tie this year and its because he screwed up and put the wrong guy at inner mid and he got only 1 star. This pissed me off cause i want him to auto-promote this year so i can win the divison next year. I'm not sure if he's gonna MOTS me or not. I know he's PIC'ed quite a few league games this year but he just got crushed in his cup game 2 weeks ago so im not sure what his TS is like. To be completely honest with you, i'd rather tie him this week, and lose to him next time we play. That way he'll finish the year 12-0-2 with 38 points and he'll probally auto-promote. But if he beats me both times that will be ok also. i'll still probally get second place unless The Witches beat me in the last game of the season, and i doubt they will. He's pretty deep and debt and he's not training very well. So everyone make sure to watch my game on Sunday :) Its the biggest game of my young HT career and i'll need all the support i can get. Upnext, This weeks league game.... |

Season 1 - League Game - Round 6
Green Mages - vs - Maniacal Misfitz Well, this is it. The biggest game of my young Hattrick career. Today i take on The Green Mages. They're the best team in this Divison by far. This is his forth season in the league and he's got the talent to prove it. For a team in there forth season they are pretty bad to be honest. I mean, DK's squad is in they're third full season and he's 10 times better then The Mages. But still, he's one of the Top 30 teams in divison V. Starters Gk - Ken Eastman Right Wingback - Ignacio Ceballos Central Defender 1 - Omar Nairn Central Defender 2 - Kahudi Widodo Simon Left Wingback - Chip Fontaine Right Winger - Charles Eddy Inner Midfielder 1 - Alexander Blanco Inner Midfielder 2 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Inner Midfielder 3 - Stephane Rohn Left Winger - Willem Herben Forward - Yuri Ruiter Subs GK- Jorge Valdés Defender - Johan Nilsson Inner Midfielder - Ewen Buckley Winger - Stuart Troutt Forward - Per Godland His midfield is way better then mine. When they're all healthy he can get a passable midfield. But he's missing 2 starters today, so i might have a chance of making the possesion close. So im playing Kahudi Widodo Simon at central defender and playing him offensive and instead of playing Stuart Troutt at wing, i've decided to play Charles Eddy because he has a slightly better playmaking skill and play him towards the middle. So basically im sacraficing a little bit of defense and my right side attack for a better midfield. Its kind of risky but what the hell. The players to watch today are Stephane Rohn, this is his first league game with me and in solid form he got 2 1/2 stars in my friendly last week. But now he's in passable form, but im still hoping for 2 1/2 stars. And Ignacio Ceballos, he just popped to solid defending and solid form. So im expecting his first 3 star game out of him. The Match Date: 5/12/2003 at 01:00 MatchID: 5555099 Arena: Skill Arena Crowd: 31638 A brilliantly sunny day had enticed a crowd of 31638 to Skill Arena. Green had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Donald - Robles, Ragnsjö, Bolin - Young, Hagen, Betts, Paulsson, Kruger - Ferrara, Ahlby. Maniacal started off with a 4-5-1 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Eastham - Ceballos, Simon, Nairn, Fontaine - Eddy, Rohn, Ferreira da Silv, Blanco, Herben - Ruiter. The 11th minute saw the home team take a 1 - 0 lead after a leak in the visitors right side defense. Scorer for Green was Brett Ferrara. A speedy charge from the left side of the field put Green lead up with 2 - 0. Ulf Ahlby finished that one off competently, firing from an acute angle. The structure of the game started to change as Green decided to pull back and meet their opponents in the defensive zone. Almost all the way down to the corner flag Bob Young somhow managed to get a perfect pass into the middle, impossible to miss for Ulf Ahlby who struck for 3 - 0. Ulf Ahlby should probably have put his team up another goal in the 20:th minute, but some great goaltending by Ken Eastham kept the visitors in the game. The teams went for a half-time break at 3 - 0. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Green, with an impressive 54 percent possession of the ball. Maniacal fought on and, in the 48:th minute Ignacio Ceballos was able to reply with 3 - 1 after some excellent moves on the right side finished off by an incredibly clever chip. Ken Eastham was caught napping a bit later as Shelby Bolin lifted a ball over him after a free kick, but the ball hit the bar, rebounding into the keepers arms. A speedy charge from the left side of the field put Green lead up with 4 - 1. Shelby Bolin finished that one off competently, firing from an acute angle. The visitors got a chance of pulling one back in the 75:th minute, due to a defensive blunder leaving Stephane Rohn completely unmarked. His strike was pathetic though, easy prey for the home side´s keeper. Green held the ball, with a clear 51 percent possession rate. Green´s best player was Jason Hagen. However, Craig Donald made a disastrous appearance. Most important Maniacal player was Chip Fontaine. Charles Eddy was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 1.

Im actually not all that mad at how my guys played, I know i got MOTS'ed. He usually puts up a 55-60 NSI when his team is all healthy. But with this same lineup last week, his NSI was 51. And i dont blame him for MOTS'ing. I'm his only real threat in this divison. Kodo's to The Green Mages, We'll meet again in 3 weeks. Then you can whip me in my arena :P The Good - My wingbacks, Ignacio Ceballos and Chip Fontaine, they both put up 3 stars. Chip is 27 but his value is up to 131k. I think he might be near poping to Excellent defense. Stephane Rohn picked up 2 1/2 stars in passable form. Im pleasently surprised, Not bad for only 27k. Willem Herben picked up 2 1/2 stars in his first league game for my club. My Midfield as a whole played well. He only won the possession rate by 54% and 51%, and he got a Inadequate rating. So that means that i got a VERY high weak midfield rating. By best ever probally. The Bad - There really wasn't to much bad this week. I got my most stars ever with 25.5 and i got my third best NSI rating at 46. Charles Eddy Only got 1 1/2 stars but thats because i played him towards the middle.Ken Eastham only got 2 stars in the net for me. He dropped to inadequate form on thursday and it showed today. will i ever find a goalie who can stay at passable form or higher?? Doesnt look that way :( Around The League CristinaFC3 - vs - PoBOXTeam 5 - 2 After PoBOXteam upset the Witches last week they get crushed today. In another week or 2 PoBOXteam will turn into a computer controlled team unless the owner logs in again. Its to bad really, he doesnt have a half bad team. Donkey Rapers - vs - Boston Bulldo 0 - 2 Just as expected, The bulldogs would win in a low scoring game. I play the Donkey Rapers the next 2 weeks. They have a good defense but there midfield is terrible. I'll probally PIC them both since my TS is at Composed Witches - vs - ESAD 1 - 0 This one was kind of a shocker, i thought The Witches would score alot more then 1 goal. They dominated the possession but just couldn't find the net. Team------------------Played------------Goals------------Points 1. Green Mages--------6----------------19 - 4-------------16 2.

Breaking News....
well... i picked up yet another player :) grabbed another inner middy..... Guy Reverier (10816010) 29 years, inadequate form, healthy A nasty fellow who is tranquil and dishonest. Has wretched experience and weak leadership abilities. Speciality: Technical Nationality: België Assessed value: 90 000 US$ Wage: 1 000 US$/week Owner: daboytommies Warnings: 0 Stamina: inadequate Goaltending: disastrous Playmaking: solid Passing: weak Winger: inadequate Defending: weak Scoring: weak Set Pieces: weak Paid 42k The only problem with him is his Stamina, but since im training stamina this week, hopefully he'll bump to passable. |
Nice buy! That should be a nice addition for the midfield.
Just remember to keep him and Yuri on different side of the team bus. :) |
thanx
i got kind of lucky with him. I was just looking around the transfer market not really expecting to buy anyone when i looked in België. I saw him and he had 1 min left until bidding ran out. I had to make a quick decision. So i said what the hell and grabbed him :) I really want to have an Inadequte midfield by the time the season is over. So buying this guy is my first step. |
He may end up hurting your TS in the long run...
-Aes- |
i thought only team leaders effect your TS???
And with weak leadership he'll never be a team leader |
I think if he's nasty, he has the chance at hurting your team spirit once you bring him in (IE - A new bought player got off to a bad start...). However, if your leader is good enough, he will minimize/offset this effect.

Season 1 - FOFC Cup - Round 1
Maniacal Misfitz - vs - West Henrietta FC Today is the first round of the FOFC cup. Im kind of excited cause its fun playing fellow FOFC'ers. But since i'll be playing my back-ups the whole time, i dont expect to win many games. Im playing bigjdotcom01's West Henrietta FC today. He's had his team for a long time, but they still aren't very good. Looking at his last friendly's my back-ups appear to be better then his. But if he plays his starters i'll lose big time. Starters Gk - Ken Eastham Right Wingback - Johan Nilsson Central Defender 1 - Rikard Larsson Central Defender 2 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Central DEfender 3 - Dumitru Burghelea Left Wingback - Daniel Schulz Right Winger - Stuart Troutt Inner Midfielder 1 - Mathias Liebers Inner Midfielder 2 - Guy Reverier Left Winger - Ewen Buckley Forward - Aron Capotă Im only playing 2 starters. One is Guy Reverier, i just bought him last night and i wanna keep his form up. And the other Stuart Troutt, he just came back from injury he's been out the last 3 weeks. so i need to keep his form up aswell. Player to keep an eye on - Guy Reverier, he's a solid PM with weak/weak secondary skills. But he;s in inadequate form with inadequte stamina. Im training stamina this week so i hope he bumps to passable tommarrow. Aron Capotă is playing in his first game for me. I bought him injured a couple weeks ago and he's finally "Bruised but playing". He's a passable/passble forward and hopfully he'll replace Yuri as a starter once he's fully healthy. He should get 2 stars today and 2 1/2 when he's fully healed. The Match Date: 5/15/2003 at 01:00 MatchID: 7005441 Arena: Maniacal Misfitz Arena Crowd: 465 Overcast weather free of rain made for a crowd turnout of 465 at Maniacal Misfitz Arena today. Maniacal had chosen a strategic 5-4-1 formation. The following players had been chosen: Eastham - Nilsson, Ferreira da Silv, Burghelea, Larsson, Schulz - Troutt, Liebers, Reverier, Buckley - Capotă. Henrietta had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Dent - Galloway, Harrington, Jefferson - Jolly, Johnsen, Portillo, Goddard, Lemons - Johnson, Oldham. 28 minutes into the game Donald Oldham was a hair´s breadth away from giving Henrietta the lead. A prompt block by Ken Eastham saved the home team that time. Seemingly due to lack of experience, Johan Nilsson needlessly tripped an opponent just outside the penalty area, but the free kick that followed didn't succeed. A mistake by the home sides central defence in the 38:th minute allowed Fred Goddard to score 0 - 1 for Henrietta. Ewen Buckley made a superb strike at the goal in the 40:th minute with a long shot coming in from straight in front of the goal, but one of the visitors defenders got a foot in and warded it off to a corner. Henrietta's Jackie Harrington scored 0 - 2 by shooting accurately and hard from a long distance, leaving the opponent goalie no other option than to pick up the ball from the net. The away team´s Fred Goddard took advantage of a mistake to the home side´s right in the 43rd minute increasing Henrietta´s lead to 0 - 3. Halftime score was 0 - 3. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Henrietta, with an impressive 51 percent possession of the ball. Olav Johnsen increased the visitors lead by putting a volley shot away on a pass from the right. 0 - 4. A marvelous Maniacal effort to the right resulted in a 79:th minute goal by Ewen Buckley, putting the score up to 1 - 4. After 81 minutes Guy Reverier could have reduced had it not been for an excellent block by the visitors keeper Robert Dent. Henriettas Jackie Harrington got himself booked after a foul. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Henrietta, with an impressive 52 percent possession of the ball. The most dominating Maniacal player was without a doubt Stuart Troutt. Ewen Buckley was a disappointment, however. Henrietta´s best player was Jerry Johnson. Hector Jolly on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 4.

His central attack was just way to much for my trainee's. Im a little surprised that he played his starters but it really doesnt matter. I refuse to play mine because training is just way to dam important. Congrats to Big J on his win. The Good - My Midfield as a whole played good. Since i ran a 5-4-1 and only had 2 inner middy's. He barley won the possession rate with 3 inner middy's. Guy Reverier picked up 2 stars in inadequate form with inadequte stamina which is good. So in Passable form with Excellent stamina he's a 3 star a game middy, Thats dam good for only 42k. The Bad - Ewen Buckly only picked up 1 1/2 stars on the wing. Which really isnt bad considering he is normally a inner midfielder. But he did score a goal :) Upnext, this weeks training update |
Training Update
This week i decided to train Stamina, 1 reason is because my newest picked was a solid PM with only inadequte stamina. i really wanted to get him to passable. The other reason is i have 2 back-up inner mid's with weak stamina. I knew i was gonna take a serious form hit but since i have back-to- back easy games i said what the hell. Well.... it payed off. 17 of my 25 players increased in stamina :) And only 8 guys dropped in form. Stamina 17 guys increased in Stamina (7 starters) (All 6 of my inner midfielders bumped also, even my injured one) The best part of all is my new Solid PM (weak/weak) inner mid jumped to passable stamina and passable form!!! Not bad for 42k :p So i expect a nice 2 1/2 stars out of him this weekend. Form But i did take a nice form hit. 1 players increased in form (1 starter) 8 players decreased in form (4 starters) The only really bad form hit i took was Alexander Blanco dropped to weak form. He should still get me 2 stars at inner mid, but if he drops again next week i'll have to bench him. In other News I sold my back-up keeper this week. He was an Inadequate with weak form. He sold for 21.5k which is way more then i would have payed for him. I only have 1 goalie at the moment but i'm gonna pull one on saturday and he'll be my back-up for sunday's game. I also sold Vlado Drekonja, i bought him last Sunday for 41k and turned around and sold him for 65k. Nice little profit there :) Upnext, this weeks youth pull and economic update |
Economic Update and youth pull
Since i only have 1 goalie at the moment i decided to pull a keeper this week. And just like the 11 guys before him, he sucks. Franklin Miller 32 000 US$, 22 years, passable form Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities Stamina: wretched Keeper: weak Playmaking: disastrous Passing: disastrous Winger: disastrous Defending: disastrous Scoring: disastrous Set Pieces: weak He will be my back-up for now. I'll just play Ken Eastham in both my league games and my friendly's for awhile. Economic update Cash funds: -74 633 US$ (-131 011) US$ Sponsors: delirious Supporter Club: 707 members Supporters: satisfied This week Revenue----------------------------Expenses Crowd 0----------------------------Arena 9 175 Sponsors 35 700-----------------Wages 24 172 Financial 0--------------------------Interest 3 732 Temporary 0-----------------------Temporary 2 000 ---------------------------------------Staff 33 000 ---------------------------------------Youth squad 20 000 Total revenue 35 700------------Total expenses 92 079 Expected income/loss -56 379 It may not look like it but im in good shape. I have a home game this week in which i should bring in around 40-50k. I have a inner middy for sale right now and he should sell for at least 25-30k. I also have a defender/inner middy for sale and he should sell for around 40k. Plus i'll be placing Yuri Ruiter on the transfer market tommarrow night since his replacement is finally healthy. So with all those guys sold and my home game i should go into next week even. Players value and team value Value per player (average): 61 800 US$ (+5,240) Total squad value: 1 545 000 US$ (+131,000) Average age: 22 Current form (average): inadequate (down from passable) Experience (average): wretched No of players (excluding the coach): 25 Number of nationalities: 14 This Weeks Game This week i take on The Donkey Rapers. Its my first home game since week 4. To be completely honest, these guys suck. The owner is pretty active but i think he just has no clue what he's doing. He has a good defense, mainly because he has a solid goalie. But that solid goalie is in weak form so he's only getting him 2 stars a game. His midfield is a joke and his offense isn't much better. He's only managed to score 2 goals all season. He runs a 4-5-1 with both his wingbacks towards the middle. So to counter this im going all out wing attack. Both my wingers are playing offensive and both my wingbacks will go offensive aswell. It should be an easy game so im gonna PIC aswell. My TS is down to Irritated so i need to pic my next 2 games. Since i'll be selling Yuri (My anti-Clown) this week, my TS should never get this low again. This weeks League Game |
Season 1 - League Game - Round 7
Maniacal Misfitz - vs - Donkey Rapers Today we face off against the worst team in my divison. Everything about this team sucks except his goalie and a 2 1/2 star defender. His goalie is 18 years old and solid, but lucky for me he's in weak form so im only expecting 2 stars out of him. The only good rating he ever gets is Excellent Central defense and thats mainly because he plays both his wingbacks towards the middle. So to counter this im going all out wing attack on him. Both my wingers are playing offensive and 1 of my wingbacks is playing normal and the other is playing offensive. Plus, to top it all off i'll be Pic'ing. Starters Gk - Ken Eastham Right Wingback - Chip Fontaine Central Defender 1 - Omar Nairn Central Defender 2 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva Left WIngback - Ignacio Ceballos Right Winger - Willem Herben (Captain) Inner Midfielder 1 - Guy Reverier Inner Midfielder 2 - Alexander Blanco Inner Midfielder 3 - Stephane Rohn Left Winger - Stuart Troutt Forward - Per Godland Subs Gk - Franklin Miller Defender - Johan Nilsson Midfielder - Mathias Liebers Winger - Charles Eddy Forward - Yuri Ruiter Per Godland will start in his first ever game at forward today. The reason Yuri isnt playing is because im selling him this week. Per should get 2 1/2 stars now that he's in passable form since he got 2 stars in weak and inadequate form. I would have played Aron Capota but he's still "Brusied but playing" and he's in inadequate form. Player's to watch today Per Godland - for one since its his first league game ever. He'll probally have a tough time scoring since he's got to go up against a Excellent central defense. Alexander Blanco - He just dropped to weak form this week but im still hoping he gets me 2 stars at midfield. He should since he gets 2 1/2 stars in passable form. Guy Reverier - My new Solid inner middy. He got 2 stars in my friendly last weak but he was in inadequate form with inadequate stamina. Now he's got Passable form and passable stamina so im expecting 2 1/2 stars out of him today. The Match A scorching day at Maniacal Misfitz Arena, where 9353 spectators were in place for today´s match. Maniacal started off with a 4-5-1 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Eastham - Fontaine, Nairn, Ferreira da Silv, Ceballos - Herben, Rohn, Blanco, Reverier, Troutt - Godland. Donkey tactics involved an interesting 4-5-1 combination. The following players had been chosen: Youngblood - Parrott, Swann, Mallory, Rankin - Jackson, Chiarello, Cepa Nogue, Emerson, Arsenault - Chicote Diaz. Maniacals Alexander Blanco gave, after 7 minutes, the home team a 1 - 0 lead after an attack coming in from the right. Donkeys Roberto Chiarello got himself booked after a foul. Guy Reverier went down after a savage challenge, but could keep on playing after some medical attention. The referee showed Maniacals Chip Fontaine the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Donkey will have to do without David Chicote Diaz for a time due to a bad foot injury. He was substituted by Vernon Downs. Donkey got a chance to level the score as Heath Jackson suddenly found himself free with the goaltender but the finishing shot hit the bar. The referee showed Maniacals Stuart Troutt the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Juan Fernando Cepa Nogue behaved like an inexperienced youth player in the 41st minute as he gave the ball away to an opponent. Lucky for him though, there was no goal. Maniacal put themselves up 2 - 0 when Stephane Rohn broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him. A speedy charge from the left side of the field put Maniacal lead up with 3 - 0. Chip Fontaine finished that one off competently, firing from an acute angle. The structure of the game started to change as Maniacal decided to pull back and meet their opponents in the defensive zone. In the 43rd minute Donkeys Shayne Swann received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. The teams went for a half-time break at 3 - 0. Maniacal held the ball, with a clear 71 percent possession rate. In the 47:th minute Maniacal´s Stuart Troutt tried to nail the coffin shut, but the shot rebounded off the bar to fall behind the net. After 53 minutes Per Godland put Maniacal ahead 4 - 0 as he rose to head in a hooked ball, the result of an effort from the right side. The game was close to savage at times, and Donkey`s Shayne Swann received a second yellow card in the 54:th, his ticket out of the game. Maniacal put themselves up 5 - 0 when Per Godland broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him. A couple of quick and successful challenges, followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area after 58 minutes might have resulted in another goal for Maniacal. However, John Youngblood made a spectacular save. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Maniacal, with an impressive 85 percent possession of the ball. Most important Maniacal player was Chip Fontaine. Alexander Blanco was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Donkey player was without a doubt Joshua Mallory. Roberto Chiarello was a disappointment, however. The match ends 5 - 0.

I scored 4 goals from the right side and 1 from the left. So my super attacking wings style worked like a charm. I needed that PIC big time. My TS was down to Irritated before this game, now its back up to calm and after next weeks pic it should be at either content or satisfied. Im selling Yuri this week (my anti-clown). So i should never have TS problems again. In other good news it seems im back in first place in the divison!!! Somehow PoBOXTeam beat The Green Mages 5-3. The Good Per Godland - played like a beast in his first league game ever. Scoring 2 goals in the second half and putting up 2 1/2 stars. Not bad for a guy that i bought for 13k almost 2 months ago :) Right Side attack - Though it only got a "passable" rating, it account for 4 of my 5 goals. My hats off to Chip Fontaine and William Herben for a game well played. Midfield - The only reason i say this is because im having kind of a form crisis with my middy's. The Form right now is 1 - weak, 1 - Inadequte - 1 passable. If all 3 were in passable form they'd all get 2 1/2 stars. Guy Reverier should have gotten 2 1/2 stars today but since he got slightly injuried he only got 2 stars. But its all good, He'll be fine in a couple days. The Bad - once again there's no real bad to speak off. This is my first game ever were everyone got at least 2 stars. But if i had to pick 1 bad it would be Alexander Blanco. He got 2 stars and scored a goal. But his weak form got him tagged " Alexander Blanco was a disappointment" at the end of the game. Around The League ESAD - vs - CristinaFC3 4 - 2 Its looks like ESAD is starting to turn it around a little. He's running a 5-3-2 with 2 inner mids and 1 winger. His Midfield sucks but his attack is a little better and his defense is pretty good. But he wont win many games with that formation. I dare him to play that formation vs me next time we play :) Boston Bulldogs - vs - Witches 2 - 2 The Witches are falling apart. With the team he's got, there is no reason he should have tied this game, Lost to POBoxTeam 2 weeks ago and only beat ESAD 1 - 0 last week. He's had some injury problems but still. His Midfield rating hasn't been very good latley but his wing attack has been. His wingers are fairly new, so "I think" he went out and bought a couple wingers with good wing skill and passing skill, but with bad playmaking. So his midfield rating is suffering in the process. Its to bad Johnny didnt stay in FOFC with us, i think he could have learned alot more here then he's learning in the other federation he's in. But im still pulling for him to turn it around cause he is a nice guy. PoBOXTeam - vs - Green Mages 5 - 3 All i can say here is HOLY SHIT!!! I have no clue what happened here. But im gonna try to break it down. First off, the Owner of PoBOXTeam finally logged in 2 days ago and i think he might have MOTS'ed this game. The reason i say that is last week his NSI was 39. This week his NSI was 46!!! The Green Mages picked up a NSI of 58 this week!! But once again they're biggest weak spot was they're Right side defense. Its only inadequte because he runs a 3-5-2 and he brings his right wingback up to inner middy. Im not sure why he does this, it leaves his right side so vulnerable. I tryed to attack his right side last week when i played him but it failed to produce. Now PoBOXTeam's strongest attack side is always they're left side. They usually get either inadequte or passable rating on that side. But this week they got a Solid rating which means they must have MOTS'ed the game since they're star rating is just the same as it was last week. 4 of they're 5 goals came from they're left side attack. Need i say more??? Its to bad The Green Mages GM isn't very good. He's got a nice squad, if he'd play them right noone in this divison would even have a chance at beatiing them. But since he doesn't switch his line-up around according to what opponent he is playing each week, he allows his weaknesses to be exploited. No wonder he's in his forth season and playing in divison 5. League Standing --------Team------------Played------------Goals-----------Points 1.

Breaking News just for Afoci!!!!!!!!!!
i signed yet another goalie, since my goalie's refuse to stay in passable form i seem to have to buy a new one every week. Koldo Tizón (11867441) 22 years, passable form, healthy A sympathetic guy who is temperamental and honest. Has disastrous experience and passable leadership abilities. Nationality: Espańa Assessed value: 234 000 US$ Wage: 2 352 US$/week including 20% Bonus Owner: Maniacal Misfitz Warnings: 0 Stamina: poor Goaltending: passable Playmaking: disastrous Passing: disastrous Winger: disastrous Defending: disastrous Scoring: poor Set Pieces: poor Paid 79k more then i usually pay for a passable but his Value is pretty nice for a passable. I'll be selling Ken Eastham to make back the money i just spent. Ken should sell for around 100k. perfect timing Afoci =) |
Update
Kahudi Widodo Simon sold for 50k yesterday. He was a defensive trainee that just bumped to passable. I sold him because he was 19 and i wanted another 17 year old trainee. I bought this guy to fill the spot on my back-up team....... Anders Larsson 9 000 US$, 17 years, passable form Has disastrous experience and wretched leadership abilities [Head] Stamina: inadequate Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: poor Passing: wretched Winger: poor Defending: inadequate Scoring: poor Set Pieces: weak He was actually the first guy i found. They're was a few more that i wanted over him because his value is so low. But i put a 1k bid on him and noone else bid. So i kinda got stuck with him. He's a "Head" specialist which is always good for defenders. The last low valued defender trainee i bought bumped to passable after his second week of training. Hopefully this guy will also =) Now all 5 of my defensive trainee's are 17. Four are inadequate's and 1 is passable. A couple of them are due to pop anytime now and 2 im not sure about. Out of my 4 starting defenders 2 are solid and 2 are passable. Chip Fontaine 138 000 US$, 27 years, passable form Has poor experience and weak leadership abilities [Unpredictable] Stamina: excellent Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: wretched Passing: wretched Winger: passable Defending: solid Scoring: weak Set Pieces: poor Chip Fontaine - The oldest and the best of the bunch. He's solid defending and passable winger, all the rest of his skills blow. His assessed value is 138k. Im torn on what to do with him. Since he's kind of old i've debated on selling him once 1 of my wingback trainee's get to passable. But his Value is getting kinda high so i might hold on to him until he bumps to Excellent,. If i sell him as solid i can expect 200-250k. If i sell him at excellent i can expect 500-600k. Thats a big difference. Ignacio Ceballos 97 000 US$, 24 years, solid form Has poor experience and inadequate leadership abilities [Unpredictable] Stamina: solid Keeper: wretched Playmaking: wretched Passing: weak Winger: inadequate Defending: solid Scoring: weak Set Pieces: wretched Ignacio Ceballos - My other wingback. He is 24 and hes a inadequate winger and he just bumped to solid defending. He will probally stay on the team until late next season when he bumps to excellent defending. Then i'll sell him for a nice chunk of change. Ismael Ferreira da Silva 50 000 US$, 19 years, solid form Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities [Powerful] Stamina: excellent Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: inadequate Passing: poor Winger: poor Defending: passable Scoring: wretched Set Pieces: weak Ismael Ferreira Da Silva - Is one of my central defenders. He's 19 years old with passable defending, Excellent stamina and inadequte playmaking. He makes a good offensive central defender. Ismael will probally be with us for a long time. He should be solid in defending by the end of this season or early next season. Omar Nairn 67 000 US$, 20 years, passable form Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities Stamina: inadequate Keeper: disastrous Playmaking: weak Passing: weak Winger: poor Defending: passable Scoring: weak Set Pieces: inadequate Omar Narin is my other central defender. He's 20 years old with passsable defending. But he should be bumping to solid any time now. Im not sure what the future holds for Omar. He will at the very least stay on my team until he's excellent. We'll have to wait and see with him. |
Season 1 - Friendly Game - Round 7
Maniacal Misfitz - vs - oralové Since MikeVic never accepted my challenage for our FOFC cup game i had to find another match. I posted on the friendly forum in HT and a Ceska Rep guy challenaged me. I can't even begin to pronouce his teams name but they are a new team and his B-team sucks royally. I should have no problem crushing them even with my 5-4-1. Starters GK - Koldo Tizón Right Wingback - Johan Nilsson Central Defender 1 - Rikard Larsson Central Defender 2 - Anders Larsson Central Defender 3 - Dumitru Burghelea Left Wingback - Daniel Schulz Right Winger - Charles Eddy Inner Midfielder 1 - Ewen Buckley Inner Midfielder 2 - Amir Hajjaj Left WInger - Einar Markhus Forward - Aron Capotă This will be Ewen Buckly's last game with the team. Since Ma Viet-Tan is almost healed, there is just no room for Ewen on the team. He should fetch i decent price since he is Passable PM weak/weak and inadequate stamina plus he's only 20 years old. Player's to watch Koldo Tizón - my new goalie will start his first game for the team, i expect a nice 2 1/2 stars from him. Aron Capotă - My passable/passable forward, I'd like to start him this weak but it all depends on if he gets 2 1/2 stars today. He's only in inadequate from so im not sure if he will. His only problem is his stamina is wretched. And as i've come to realize, stamina effects all postions in HT, Even forwards. Anders Larsson - his first game with the club. Hopefully he'll grab 2 stars. The Match 1807 spectators had come to Maniacal Misfitz Arena this cloudy day. Maniacal had chosen a strategic 5-4-1 formation. The following players had been chosen: Tizón - Nilsson, Burghelea, Larsson, Larsson, Schulz - Eddy, Hajjaj, Buckley, Markhus - Capotă. oralové had chosen a strategic 5-3-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: ilhan - Moran Martínez, Rathouský, Nedvěd, Pek, Bursík - Krsek, Hanák, Bárta - urman, Hlouek. Ewen Buckley received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly, probably out of lack of experience, in the 7:th minute and almost caused an opponent to score. Some beautiful plays on the left side of the field resulted in a 8:th minute goal by Einar Markhus for Maniacal, putting them ahead 1 - 0. In the 27:th minute the excellent ball from the wing byEinar Markhus reached Aron Capotă's head, and he is not one to miss such an opportunity - 2 - 0. Maniacal put themselves up 3 - 0 when Dumitru Burghelea broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him. In the games 36:th minute, Aron Capotă could have extended the lead, but his very hard free kick went just over the bar. oralové had to manage with a reduced squad from the 37:th minute on, as Heřman Bárta got sent off for a foul in a free situation. Halftime score was 3 - 0. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Maniacal, with an impressive 78 percent possession of the ball. A couple of quick and successful challenges, followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area after 59 minutes might have resulted in another goal for Maniacal. However, Zdenek ilhan made a spectacular save. A couple of quick and successful challenges, followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area after 62 minutes might have resulted in another goal for Maniacal. However, Zdenek ilhan made a spectacular save. Maniacal put themselves up 4 - 0 when Dumitru Burghelea broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him. After 66 minutes Maniacal´s Charles Eddy contracted a slight foot injury, but could finish the game. Maniacal put themselves up 5 - 0 when Ewen Buckley broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him. After this Maniacal lowered the tempo in order to concentrate on their defensive efforts. Maniacal, bringing the final ball possession rate to 88 percent, dominated the battle. The most dominating Maniacal player was without a doubt Koldo Tizón. Amir Hajjaj on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important oralové player was Luděk urman. Ondřej Pek on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 5 - 0.

He only got 10 1/2 stars with his whole team. Anyway im happy, no serious injuries and my central defender Dumitru scored 2 goals, thats kinda wierd. Next week in my cup game i play the Slumlords at home. His back-up squad is dam good so he should whip my ass pretty bad. The Good Koldo Tizón - played great in his first game with the club and got 2 1/2 stars. Now if his form stays up i won't have to buy a new goalie every freaking week. Anders Larsson - got 2 stars in his forst game which means he isn't a very very low inadequate in defending. Dumitru Burghelea - scored 2 goals as a central defender!!! The Bad Aron Capotă - only got 2 stars in inadequate form. Unless he bumps to passable form tommarrow, he wont play in the league game. Which doesn't really bother me that much since Per Godland is playing like an animal right now. Upnext, this weeks training update |
Training Update
A pretty average training week for me. I had 1 guy pop in defending. Omar Narin hit Solid defending finally. So all of my starting defenders are solid now expect 1, and he will bump by the end of the season. Form Form kinda sucked this week, i kind of expected it since i trained stamina last week. Most my starters are ok, they could be better but im not complaining. The only really good form jump was Guy Reverier, he's my solid PM middy and now he's in solid form. Which is good cause the rest of my midfield is hurting form wise. My other 2 starting middy are in Weak form and inadequte form. If all my starting middy's were in passable form i'd get a inadequate midfield rating i think. But it doesn't matter this week, im playing the pathetic Donkey rapers again. 5 Players increased in form (1 starter) 4 players decreased in form (1 starter) Upnext, This weeks Economic update |
Oooh. Solid middie in solid form should be awesome.
|
probally only 2 1/2 stars since he's only got passable stamina, but i'll take it =)

Youth Pull + Economic Update
Finally.... my youth squad hits solid and i pull my first decent youth player. I'd like everyone to meet Benton Minter, my new starting winger. Benton Minter (12166991) 18 years, passable form, healthy A controversial person who is temperamental and honest. Has disastrous experience and inadequate leadership abilities. Nationality: USA Assessed value: 40 000 US$ Wage: 700 US$/week Owner: Maniacal Misfitz Warnings: 0 Stamina: passable Goaltending: disastrous Playmaking: weak Passing: poor Winger: solid Defending: poor Scoring: wretched Set Pieces: weak I wish his passing was a little better but im not complaining. Im not sure what i should do with him at the moment. He's definitly gonna start tommarrow, but i'll probally sell him. I have no clue what the market value is for young wingers. I figure i could sell him and buy a slightly older/better winger for the same price since this guy is only 18 and very trainable. Anyone know about what he'd sell for???? Economic Update Im debt free this week for the first time in 3 weeks. I play an away game this week but i will be selling 2 guys so hopfully i'll be debt free after this week aswell. Then its back-to-back home games which will be very nice. 1 of which will probally be my first sellout in my new arena since its against the Green Mages.

I don't expect to win 5-0 again since im on the road but i still should beat him pretty soundly. Upnext, This weeks League Game |
Woohoo! Debt free AND a good youth pull! Double congratulations! :)

Season 1 - League Game - Round 8
Donkey Rapers - vs - Maniacal Misfitz Today we get to spank the Donkey Rapers again. I'll be pic'ing again even though i dont like pic'ing on the road but these guys suck so bad it shouldn't be a problem. Im gonna attack like hell with my wings again this game and my new winger Benton that i pulled from my youth squad should help a little for my winger rating. Starters GK - Koldo Tizón Right Wingback - Chip Fontaine (Offensive) Central Defender 1 - Omar Nairn (Normal) Central Defender 2 - Ismael Ferreira da Silva (Normal) Left Wingback - Ignacio Ceballos (Offensive) Right Winger - Benton Minter (Offensive) Inner Midfielder 1 - Guy Reverier (Offensive) Inner Midfielder 2 - Alexander Blanco (Offensive) Inner Midfielder 3 - Stephane Rohn (Normal) Left Winger - Willem Herben (Offensive) Forward - Per Godland (Normal) Subs Defender - Johan Nilsson Midfielder - Amir Hajjaj Winger - Stuart Troutt Forward - Aron Capotă As you can see im playing almost everyone offensive. Mainly because his offense is so bad. Im hoping to get Solid attack ratings on both my wings since im playing both my wingbacks offensive, but im not sure if i'll get that high of a rating since im pic'ing on the road. We'll see Players To Watch Today Benton Minter - My new winger's first game with the team. He should get 2 1/2 stars. Guy Reverier - My solid PM, who just hit solid form. I expect a strong 2 1/2 stars out of him aswell. Alexander Blanco - He could be a problem today. He's in "low"weak form. I still expect 2 stars out of him. The Match At Donkey Rapers Arena, 3641 punters turned up, and despite threatening clouds at the horizon, no rain came. Donkey started off with a 4-5-1 lineup. Lineup: Youngblood - Parrott, Mallory, Chih-Hsien, Rankin - Jackson, Chiarello, Cepa Nogue, Emerson, Arsenault - Downs. Maniacal had chosen a strategic 4-5-1 formation. They fielded: Tizón - Fontaine, Nairn, Ferreira da Silv, Ceballos - Minter, Rohn, Blanco, Reverier, Herben - Godland. Maniacal took the lead in the games 16:th minute with 0 - 1 after some elegant plays down the middle. Ignacio Ceballos was the scorer. Maniacal came close to extending their lead as Per Godland delivered a long range shot from the right but the angle was to sharp, and the shot hit the side of the goal. Maniacal´s Per Godland missed a penalty shot in the games 25:th minute. The shot produced was way too weak, leaving the keeper to collect it at his own leisure. Alix Arsenault of Donkey received a yellow card in the 30:th minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Donkey will have to do without John Youngblood for a time due to a bad foot injury. He was substituted by Nicolas Ware. In the 32nd minute the visitors put themselves ahead 0 - 2 as Guy Reverier finished off an attack from the left with a spectacular scissors kick. Halftime score was 0 - 2. Maniacal held the ball, with a clear 63 percent possession rate. The game had been on for 81 minutes when Per Godland broke through to the right, upping the score to the home crowd´s dismay. Maniacal´s were up 0 - 3. By now Maniacal were drawing the troops back in order to defend their lead. Maniacals Omar Nairn got himself booked after a foul. Donkey were forced to a substitution as Joshua Mallory couldn´t continue playing due to the rough treatment. Guy Reverier received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly, probably out of lack of experience, in the 90:th minute and almost caused an opponent to score. Stephane Rohn came close to extending the visitors lead as he, completely unmarked in front of the goal, lifted a ball over Nicolas Ware, hitting the bar. 90 minutes into the game Ismael Ferreira da Silva had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came Johan Nilsson. Maniacal held the ball, with a clear 78 percent possession rate. The most dominating Donkey player was without a doubt Karl Parrott. However, Tse Chih-Hsien made a disastrous appearance. Maniacal´s best player was Omar Nairn. However, Alexander Blanco made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 3.

It could have been alot worse but i missed 3 scoring chances. My NSI rating was the same as last week but my midfield dropped to poor. The BAd form of my middy's is starting to cause a problem. I'll still get a weak midfield rating while playing normal, but i don't think i'll reach inadequate anytime soon unless my form picks up. Ismael will be miss 2 weeks with that injury. That gonna hurt alittle next week. He's very close to being a 2 1/2 star central defender. But i have a few good back-ups so it should't hurt to bad. The Good Benton Minter - got 2 1/2 star in his first game with the team and helped get me a solid attack rating on the right side. Guy Reverier - picked up 2 1/2 stars and scored. If only he had solid or excellent stamina he'd get me 3 stars. The Bad Alexander Blanco - Still got me 2 stars in weak form but got tagged "Most Disappointing player" at the end of the game. Per Godland - he scored a goal, but missed 2 other chances and only got 2 stars. Im not sure why he only 2 stars since he's still in passable form and last week he got 2 1/2 stars. Around The League Witches - vs - Boston Bulldo 3 - 5 Witches lose yet again. But this time im not to surprised. The Bulldogs picked up a NSI of 47 and got 25.5 stars. What really amazies me about the Bulldogs is that the guy almost never logs in and has only added 2 low priced guys to his team and still very good NSI ratings. He must have started with one of the best teams i've ever seen. To bad the owner isn't more active or they'd prbally be battling with me and The Mages for first and second place. CristinaFC3 - vs - ESAD 5 - 0 No real surprise here, ESAD and they're 5-3-2 formation don't have much hope of beating anyone this year, espically on the road. CristinaFC3 will probally change owners in a couple weeks. Its been awhile since the owner has logged in Green Mages - vs - PoBOXTeam 6 - 0 well, the mages got some revenge for last weeks embarressing loss to POBOXTeam.They put up an unbelieveable 61 NSI!!! Im absolutely screwed next week when i play them. I was thinking about MOTS'ing them but now im not so sure. They are just to dam good. They're whole team is healthy again and it shows. I see what my form does at the end of the week before i decide weather or not i wanna MOTS them. League Standings Team------------------Played--------------Goals------------Points 1.

Yeah... Benton will be around for awhile. I talked to a couple winger trainer's and they said that he would only sell for 40-50k. So i'll just keep him. Should be a starter for awhile, then a good back-up down the road.
As for Alexander..... im gonna need all the midfield i can get next week vs The Green Mages. He has a 3 1/2 stars middy, a 2 1/2 stars middy and a 2 star. So i hope his form bumps this week to inadequate or i might have to play 1 of my back-ups. |
