18 year old to brilliant playmaking. Maybe with the new WC system he will make the U20 team. Otherwise crappy. Oh and I have to admit to some of you (damnMikeBrown) that I was wrong about TS. My coach went down to poor leadership on Monday. TS has fallen three levels since then. So, since I've picked every game since week 6 I've basically wasted this season. I've PICed every game since week 6 and have lost most of them because of it. Now I don't even get to take my TS advantage to my qualifier. What a terrible season this has been. I'm just waiting for the next thing to go wrong. I dont see how it could get much worse though. Maybe a 6 week injury to Bautista?

DukeRulesMAB 01-22-2004 09:43 PM

I could have told you about TS. My Solid/Poor coach can't hold better than Content form since I've been out of the Cup, and I wouldn't be surprised if now that I've Normed a week, he won't be able to hold above Calm.

One more season of this until I hopefully get my Solid/Passable. :)

TargetPractice6 01-22-2004 09:58 PM

I've had a solid/weak coach for many season now and never dreamed 1 level would have such a drastic effect.

Blade6119 01-22-2004 10:01 PM

This guy has done a magnificent job for me...speaking of magnificent, thats what my keeper popped to

Rolland Blank (8212272)
36 years, passable form, healthy
A solid coach who is defensive minded
A popular guy who is calm and upright.
Has formidable experience and passable leadership abilities.

TargetPractice6 01-22-2004 10:03 PM

Heh, well I have a passable experience/solid leadership player. As soon as he hits solid experience he will become my coach. Until then he's playing every match.

Blade6119 01-22-2004 10:07 PM

this guy was never a player...became my coach at 33 from the random coach thing, and done well since...used to be solid/solid, but has slipped due to his age(should 36 year olds really be slipping???) I do know after a few friendlies that he cant play any position without costing me the match though...useful im sure

Mr. Wednesday 01-22-2004 10:54 PM

Excellent form update for me, +12/-4 for non-training value and +6/-1 for form changes large enough to be reflected in the form denomination. Hopefully, it will be enough to cover for having two star players out of the lineup on suspensions... We'll be lining up in a 3-4-3 in the league match to try to punch through the strong defense of New Bremen Chickens (although I may regret concentrating in the middle, I think they're stronger there).

Oh, and Jeesus Alkula is finally back in form! With luck, he'll knock some goals in and get back into the lead for the series scoring title.

We've also set the lineup for the DarqCup tie with D&D. We're going with a run'n'shoot 3-5-2 (except for Brad Courtney, who's playing defensive in midfield), and playing straight up tactically. I figure we'll go down in a blaze of glory. :p

Nyarlahotep 01-22-2004 11:34 PM

Keeper to brilliant and form -2 overall.

Airhog 01-22-2004 11:50 PM

my form was +6/-1 for starters. Backups were +5/-1.

My 17 IM popped to formidable. my 18IM popped to formidable aswell.

Market value is 3.9 mil. I should hit the 4 mil mark next week.

I have 1459 supporters now.

vex 01-23-2004 12:01 AM

20 yo to outstanding PM

20 yo to formidable PM

31 yo forward to weak:)

DukeRulesMAB 01-23-2004 12:03 AM

17 YO to Excellent Winger (Quick, w/ Solid Passing)

18 YO to Solid Winger (Solid/Solid Stamina/PM)

We're happy. :)

17 year old to formidable???? looks like you got a U-20 member there.

BreizhManu 01-23-2004 03:21 AM

One winger pop to passable (a 27 yrs old backup forward so that is quite useless)

Form +7/-3
Starters +4/-2 (the 2 decreasing are going from excellent to solid and my GK gets a +2 so not bad at all)

Breeze 01-23-2004 05:46 AM

- 3 on form (mostly backups dropped)

But a starting Middie popped to Excellent.

Icy 01-23-2004 05:48 AM

Another week without pops for me, just form changes:

FORM +7 / -4

illinifan999 01-23-2004 06:32 AM

Well, uh training happened? Wow, what a worthless update yet again! 1 form change, 1 value increase by 2k, and one guy now has a band-aid. :confused:

FrogMan 01-23-2004 09:08 AM

After taking a huge form hit last week while training stamina (+1 / -9) things are back to normal this week...

Form: +5 / -1
Players value change: 16 going up, 3 going down

No pops, but none were expected...

FM

saintjo 01-23-2004 09:29 AM

+4/-1 form change. so thats good, except the -1 is the winger i just bought yesterday.

no pops. i was expecting 1 and hoping for 1 other. guess ill have to wait another week.

MacroGuru 01-23-2004 09:49 AM

Move to Passing training the final weeks of the season

Form +6 / -2

Passing 3 pops, 1 to weak, 1 to poor, 1 to wretched

Next couple of weeks I should see more.

Raven Hawk 01-23-2004 11:04 AM

Had an 18 y/o striker pop to Formidable and a 17 y/o pop to Solid.

robbgmaier 01-23-2004 01:56 PM

my $450K midfield trainee at weak form went up to $599K and solid form this week. I guess that makes up for the lack of anything else interesting.


by the way, has anyone else noticed that when hattrick says nothing is happening after training begins, that training hasn't finished yet? the last two weeks i've downloaded the hrf after the training supposedly stops, and have then gone back in half and hour or so and gotten another one, with more results.

That would be wonderful. I hope that if I train PM straight through this season, he will be outstanding at the end of this season.

DukeRulesMAB 01-23-2004 02:48 PM

robb - On a hunch, I went back and checked, and yes, two people updated again after my initial update last night. And HT definately said the US was through with training. Very odd.

Before this week eight 17 year olds had already reached formidable playmaking. Including one of my own :)

I had an 18 year old reach brilliant last night. Hopefully he can make the U20 team under the new system.

I'm sure you could always grease the coach if it's close.

Sorry, can't pick up. Don't want to get grease poop on the phone. It is a bitch to clean off.

BishopMVP 01-23-2004 05:23 PM

I was thinking something along the lines of his being unable to use his oral prowess on this coach, but I got nothing.

finkenst 01-24-2004 10:05 PM

only one training pop:
Playmaking: excellent

form: +4/-5 (-2 and 2 -1s to starters. +1 2 startes)

sterlingice 01-25-2004 01:09 AM

One of my 17yo wingers popped to solid so both of my 17yo wingers (who get half training) are up to solid PM so that guarantees both will be formidable by the end of 19 and hopefully outstanding at 20 (early 21).

Oh, and 26yo Stephen Connors bumped to outstanding (our second ever!) so he will be sold early next season after the late season price doldrums end.
