LAST ROUND



Tetsaiga - Raging Chimbe 1 - 3
RN United - Los Rudos 3 - 0
Kandy Kanez - Man U Wannabe 0 - 9
NE Oklahoma S - bob killas 5 - 0




NEXT ROUND



bob killas - Tetsaiga
Raging Chimbelinas - RN United
Man U Wannabes - NE Oklahoma Sidekick
Los Rudos - Kandy Kanez



Tetsaiga losing to the Raging Chimbelinas moved the Sidekicks into 4th place.

RN United probably PICed Los Rudos to get the easy win.

Man U Wannabes showed no mercy to the last placec Kandy Kanez.

And we of course won our game by forfeit.



We should be able to come out of this game with a win as we will be going MOTS, but anything could happen to change that.

My Midseason prediction is for us to finish #3 in V.111. #2 is the best case scenario barring a miracle, and #4 is the worst case scenario.

[Poli]

Wish I could win a game by forfeit! Instead I have to pull a Horned and use 6 mids to defeat the Fighting Illini 4-1. My team got confused twice in one half!

Probably the most confusing part was that I didn't know I was playing it until I saw George Flores step up to the midfield instead of playing wingback.

I about cried because I thought that I would lose the game because of it.

[vex]

At least you won though. You lose training though, don't you?

[Poli]

If I do, it's only Bettis and Sumner, and they are both solid scorers. I wouldn't be entirely upset.

[DataKing]

I'm pretty sure you do lose training from playing an 'incomprehensible' formation.

Never tried it myself, though.

[Poli]

I believe I read somewhere that it was possible...but not a lock.

I certainly was shocked when I saw it and that I won.

[vex]

From the HattriX-Files:

"Get the most out of it for your squad...
You also want to choose a formation that benefits your training choice the most.
For keeper, it doesn't matter, you can only play 2 keepers a week, so you can only train 2
For scoring, generally teams play 3-4-3 and have 6 trainees, one set playing Sunday, the other on Wednesday.
Playmaking would be best with 5 midfielders (3 inners).
Defending, 5-4-1 is the best (10 defenders), but 4-4-2 and 4-5-1 are also used...
and so on...
but dont play exaggerated formations like 2-7-1 to train more players! in this case none of your players will receive any training!
...but which formation is best to win against your next opponent?"

[vex]

The Sidekicks would just like to point out that we have missed our trash talking this week with our white trash opponent, the Galesburg Avengers

Galesburg Avengers - NE Oklahoma Sidekicks


2nd Round of the FOFC CUP - Match #2


Date: 2/6/2003 at 01:00
MatchID: 4983780
Arena: Vengeance Field
Crowd: 910


A scorching day at Vengeance Field, where 910 spectators were in place for today´s match. Galesburg had chosen a strategic 2-5-3 formation. They fielded: Thomas - Meek, Oskarsson - Valadez, Croom-Carter, Matson, Poulin, Maddox - Pierre, Street, Schrader.

Sidekicks had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. They fielded: Luginbühl - Johnson, Parish, Thompson - Wilson, Connor, Winters, Stensson, Valijero - Tuvin, Rossi.

A header from Inge Oskarsson connected with a corner kick after 28 minutes, and the ball ended up with Paul Street of Galesburg who shot the 1-0 goal. Almost all the way down to the corner flag Rodney Valadez somhow managed to get a perfect pass into the middle, impossible to miss for Kurt Maddox who struck for 2 - 0. After this Galesburg lowered the tempo in order to concentrate on their defensive efforts. The away team reduced the score to 2 - 1, as Roberto Rossi struck home, set up well by a play from the left in the 31st minute. Galesburg seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion about the organization of the team. A speedy charge from the left side of the field put Galesburg lead up with 3 - 1. Johnny Pierre finished that one off competently, firing from an acute angle. Floyd Meek got left behind when Sidekicks´s Roberto Rossi made a sudden pull forward in the 41st minute, finishing off with a swift strike. 3-2! 43 minutes into the game Sidekicks´s Patrik Tuvin found a gap in the home sides central defense scoring with a long shot, making it 3 - 3. After 45 minutes Sidekicks´s Andy Parish contracted a slight foot injury, but could finish the game. Galesburg had obvious problems in finding their positions. The teams went for a half-time break at 3 - 3. Sidekicks held the ball, with a clear 62 percent possession rate.

Galesburg -coach had an extra briefing during the break, and after that his players looked a lot more organized. A mistake by the home sides central defence in the 47:th minute allowed Roberto Rossi to score 3 - 4 for Sidekicks. By then Roberto Rossi was a three time scorer - a hat trick! The away team´s Ned Connor took advantage of a mistake to the home side´s right in the 63rd minute increasing Sidekicks´s lead to 3 - 5. Some fine manouvering on the left lead to an 70:th minute Sidekicks goal, making it 3 - 6. Ned Connor was noted down as the scorer. Galesburg appeared unsure on how to play. In the 73rd minute the visitors put themselves ahead 3 - 7 as Roberto Rossi finished off an attack from the left with a spectacular scissors kick. After this Sidekicks lowered the tempo in order to concentrate on their defensive efforts. The visitors Ned Connor took advantage of an error due to a misunderstanding between the home side´s goalie and full backs in the 75:th minute. 3 - 8 for Sidekicks. This third goal made a hat trick for Ned Connor. Danél Valijero of Sidekicks received a yellow card in the 75:th minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Sidekicks held the ball, with a clear 63 percent possession rate.

Galesburg´s best player was Martin Schrader. However, Floyd Meek made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating Sidekicks player was without a doubt Donald Thompson. Andy Parish on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 3 - 8.

Not real pleased star wise, but the score is a whole different story. The Avengers jumped out to a 3-1 lead and I thought we were in some serious trouble, but somehow we pulled through.

That 2-5-3 sure seemed to help your central attack, didn't it CW?

Good game goes out to the Avengers and we hope to have a rematch sometime next season.

The Sidekicks are happy to announce that we will be traveling to South Korea for our friendly on Wednesday. We will be playing The Fellowship FC.

A little info on The Fellowship:


The Fellowship FC (28557)

Country: South Korea
Region: Kyonggi-do
Arena: Barad-Dur (Capacity - 10,000)
Language: English
Series: # 2 in II.4


I honestly don't think we'll have much trouble staying with them. They may beat us, but not by much.

While reading through the team info, I wondered why their team had no recorded transfer transactions. Turns out they are a new as of 1/25/03. He didn't pick up a bad team:

The team is undefeated for 6 competition games and has 6 wins in a row

[vex]

Latest events

Normally, this would be good. But not this time. Does anyone want a supporter or could someone give me one? These 15 supporters bring me up to 666 supporters!

[Coffee Warlord]

Good luck to ya Vex!

Yeah, I figured my only chance to dig myself out of the hole was a massive attack. Might of worked, had we not pulled back so damn soon. Bah!

[vex]

I HATE pulling back.

One thing I have also noticed, whenever there is confusion in the formation, the team that got confused, scores the next goal. Maybe it's just me.

[Coffee Warlord]

Yep. Confusion and overconfidence are wonderful things, if you ask me.

[vex]

Training Results

Well, I would have to say that this is definitely the most disappointing training results I have recieved so far.

To start off, we didn't have any changes in our playmaking training.

2 Form Increases (2 starters)
6 Form Decreases (3 starters) one starter dropped two levels

9 Value Increases (8 starters)
6 Value Decreases (3 starters)

This was just a pitiful week for us.

Our top defender, Jan Thomasson dropped two form levels, going from Solid to Inadequate. He also dropped $10,000 in value to goto $75,000.

The largest value increase this week goes to Duane Henning who rose $18,000 to settle at $161,000. He is 25 yrs old and I am thinking about selling him.

Our largest value decrease goes to Palmer Needham who dropped $12,000 to end up at $112,000.

#1 Man U Wannabes - #4 NE Oklahoma Sidekicks





Date: 2/10/2003 at 01:00
MatchID: 4594046
Arena: Man U Wannabes Arena
Crowd: 7000


The crowd of 7000 turning up at Man U Wannabes Arena today were greeted by some nasty showers of rain. Wannabes had chosen a strategic 3-4-3 formation. The following players had been chosen: Boudreau - Anderson, Betancourt, Chacon - Hull, Law, Lewis, Parker - Howard, Baker, Mallory.

Sidekicks tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. The following players had been chosen: Luginbühl - Thompson, Johnson, Thomasson - Needham, Henning, Andersson, Stensson, Valijero - Rossi, Perez.

Some quick foot work on the left side of the field in the 7:th minute left Sidekicks´s Keith Perez completely free to score. 0 - 1 for the visitors. The game was characterized by rough play and many physical challenges. Danél Valijero showed great heart and had a good game. After 32 minutes of game time Keith Perez received an excellent opportunity to add to the visitors lead, clipping a volley hooked in from the right, but Alexander Boudreau was in the right place, tipping the ball to a corner. In the games 36:th minute Wannabes´s Jason Howard fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee booked Jason Howard for taking a dive. After 40 minutes Wannabess Frederick Hull had to be carried off on a stretcher in agony. Earl Ricks came in instead of him. The visitors Roberto Rossi took advantage of an error due to a misunderstanding between the home side´s goalie and full backs in the 41st minute. 0 - 2 for Sidekicks. After 41 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for Keith Perez who increased Sidekicks´s lead to 0 - 3. Halftime score was 0 - 3. Sidekicks held the ball, with a clear 67 percent possession rate.

In the 54:th minute Wayne Law passed through the guests central line of defense, scoring the 1 - 3 goal. Sidekicks´s Roberto Rossi made it through the home teams defence in the 61st 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. Sidekickss Palmer Needham got himself booked after a foul. Wannabes were forced to a substitution as Wayne Law couldn´t continue playing due to the rough treatment. Wannabes didn´t give in and in the 71st minute Sidney Chacon was able to put the 2 - 3 goal away after a play from the right. After 75 minutes of play Earl Ricks equalised for Wannabes after an elegant attack from the right. After a fine move down the middle George Yanez nearly gave the home side one up in the 78:th minute. The finishing shot went just wide, though. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Sidekicks, with an impressive 65 percent possession of the ball.

Most important Wannabes player was Floyd Parker. Ellis Lewis on the other hand, had a terrible day. Sidekicks´s best player was Duane Henning. Anselm Luginbühl on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 3 - 3.


Man U Wannabes - NE Oklahoma Sidekicks 3 - 3


The sad thing is, we did in fact MOTS this game. Somehow, somehow, I still don't know how, but we just broke apart in the second half. We still had good possesion of the ball, but something just didn't click. As I said I would, since we didn't win this game, the Sidekicks are now heading towards an overhaul.

After looking at the fixtures for the rest of the season, it appears as if I'm destined for no higher than #4 this season. So let the firesale commence!

[vex]

WOW, somehow, going MOTS, dropped my team spirit all the way frrom satisfied to irritated!!!

That's a FOUR level drop!!!

[vex]

Sidekicks, may I introduce you to the transfer list


First off is 25 yr old Midfielder, Duane Henning. Henning has been nothing but a positive for the team as he just garnered the teams highest ever rating at 3 stars. He is also the hihest valued player on the team at $161,000. However, the team needs money and I'm betting that someone will snatch him up at his starting price of $161,000, his value. Of not, we will lower the bid next time around. He is a very solid player.

Here is Mr. Henning:


Duane Henning (7367118)

Potential Transfer #2


GK Anselm Luginbühl, while he hasn't done great for the team, he has definitely been consistant with a 2* average. He is starting out at $120,000. If Anselm ever gets his form up to passable, he will be a player.


Anselm Luginbühl (4660499)

Potential Transfer #3


Forward, Keith Perz. This is a guy that everyone needs to think about picking up. I am puting him on the market at $30,000 less than value. He is my star scorer. His last 3 league matches he has recieved **~ If your team needs a scoring boost, pick up Perez as his starting price is only $70,000!

Bid on Keith Perez here!

[vex]

I've got 2 more players for sale, one, a winger, is almost $40,000 under market value. The other is a passable midfielder going for $20,000.

Check all of my players up for sale here!

[vex]

What we hope to obtain from this firesale is to get enough money to aquire a solid keeper. Getting a solid keeper should put us back about $300,000, according to the US market. If I have any money left over, I will obtain a very young (17 or 18) midfielder or 2 for training purposes.

I would also like to expand the stadium, but that isn't within our financial outlook at the time.

[Poli]

Good luck on the sale! I'd be interested in Perez, but he's too old to train, and scoring is what I train. That, and I just ordered 5000 seats to be added to Raider Field, to give us 21000 overall.

[vex]

Thanks, but if Perez was about 3 years younger, I'm not sure if I would want to get rid of him anyways.

Also, I now hope that no one feels like bidding on Henning as I have decided that he might be vital to my teams future. However, if he gets a bid or two, I certainly won't be complaining either.

[Poli]

I certainly hope the best for Perez's bidding. I'm sure you can still fetch a decent dollar for him from teams looking elsewhere for their scoring. By that I mean a team that trains say, playmaking. They'll definitely be looking on the market for a solid scorer.

Unfortunately, I have a five guys 20 and under that I train for scoring...for me I'm looking for playmakers and defenders.

I solid keeper would be nice as well.

lol

[vex]

Right now, the chances of me getting that solid keeper are looking bleak as not ONE of my players have bid on. If I could just get the minimum bids on all of my players, I would come out with $419K, [dreams]enough to possibly get me an excellent keeper.[/dreams]

[vex]

We are happy to announce that Duane Henning has reaced his minimum bid of $161,000.

I will post the recent results of our friendly soon, but for now, I'm playing with Supporter that I just got.

[vex]

Meet the newest member of the Sidekicks!


Irfan Serin (8194310)
18 years, passable form, healthy

A pleasant guy who is temperamental and dishonest.
Has disastrous experience and poor leadership abilities.


Speciality: Unpredictable

Stamina: inadequate Goaltending: disastrous

Serin should be a good trainee for us provided his form doesn't go down. We got him on our first bid of $10,000. He is the Sidekicks first native of Turkey. Once we train his playmaking some, and improve on his passing(which we will be doing the next 2 weeks), his value should go up quite a bit. He was pulled from the youth squad 3 days ago.

[Superman=#54]

Good stuff vexroid and Anslem will make a comeback with my team and hopefully do great things. Just watch out win the FOFC cup comes back hes pretty pissed.

[vex]

Hey, good luck with Anselm!

Right now here's the bids that have been placed:

Anselm Ludinberg: $120,000
Duane Henning: $181,000 (After thinking that he might not even get a bid)
Daniel Valiero: $48,000

[vex]

Where are they now???

This will be a bi-weekly(maybe monthly) feature from now on.



First off is 29yr old John Hester, he was only valued at $13,000 when we sold him to Cuervos FC for $2,000. They then trained him a bit, uping his value to $18,000, then sold him 16 days later for $5,000 to a. d. riestra, an Argentinan team. His last match he received *~ stars as a central defender.




22 yr old Hal Spruill, who we sold to Dynamo Essling for $126,000 when his value was pitiful $42,000, has been trained VERY well as his value is now up to $168,000. I feel very stupid right now. He recieved ** stars in his last match at midfielder.



22yr old Timothé Villeneuve, was sold to Xcaliburs for $190,000 when he was only valued at $81,000. His last match he received **~ stars as a winger. His value is now $162,000.


30 yr old Archibaldo García was sold to AC Stingers on 1/30/03 for $8,000 and he was currently valued at $22,000. It appears as if I finally made a good move as his value is now down to $20,000. He earned *~ stars at midfield last match.


We sold 19 yr old Jeffrey Torres to Knights of Redem for $2,000. His value at the time was $13,000, it remains the same today. They are currently using him as their backup Keeper,lol. Waste of space.

Our last player is Christian Dewitt, who we sold to dreamalcohol for a whole $1,000. His value at the time was $31,000. It is now down to $29,000. He isn't even on the teams linup.

[vex]

Superman=#54, if you want Anslem, you'd better hurry as 2 other teams have enterd the bidding with 10 minutes to go. He is up to $126,000.

[vex]

Well, Anselm Luginbühl is history as he went for face value ($138,000) to Brazen Breed, who is in Houston. We collect $124 200 of that.


Duane Henning is up to $185,000 and Valijero is still at $48,000.

Keith Perez and Ned Connor still don't have any bidders, which really doesn't bother me now. However, I expect someone to try and snipe Perez.

[vex]

Danél Valijero was sold to blacksquid, from New York, for $60,000.

Stay tuned for Duane Henning's bid, it's VERY interesting!

[vex]

2 Spanish clubs, a Polish club and an American club have extended the bidding 20 minutes as of now!

[vex]

Down to 2 clubs now. One guy is a sniper, the other bids immediately after the sniper.

[vex]

The sniper about gives me an anxiety attack as he always bid with 2-3 seconds with on the clock.

[vex]

The sniper(Polish) finally gave up or missed the bid as the compulsive clicker, Kyuss F.C. (Spanish) gets the Sidekicks Duane Henning for......

$350,000!!!!!!!

And we get $322,000!!!

Wow, this changes things in a major way for our club. We are thinking about looking at a excellent keeper now as we have $462,000 in the bank now. We began the day at -$35,000. Wow.

Keith Perez and Ned Connor didn't get any bidders, luckily.

[sterlingice]

Whatcha gonna buy? Good luck finding the solid tender because they are expensive and don't grow on trees but with $150K in the bank, that's a good downpayment on a stadium!

SI

[vex]

I've got a good Keeper lined up if no one steals him. Going for $250,000, but I'll spend MUCH more on this guy if I must.

Right now I'm looking for some young midfielders to spend that excess money on. However, if Dataking wants to trade me my namesake now...

-Regularly puts up 2 stars, 2.5 in solid or better form.
-Form hasn't fallen below inadequate since September.
-Has appeared in 3 USA Cup, 3 League, and 22 Friendly matches.

I think he will reach solid defending by the end of the season, or during the off-season, at which point I could probably sell him for around $150,000.

Bearing all this in mind, let me know what you'd be willing to pay and I'll consider listing him for that amount. I cannot, however, be held responsible if a bidding war develops.

If you would rather wait until he goes to solid defending, then we can reconsider it then.

He's a good kid, and was one of my first trainees. But if the price is right, I can be persuaded to let him go.

[vex]

Lets wait until he pops to solid, if that's alright. Better for me and you.

Fine and dandy. I'll be sure to let you know when he pops.
