Hattrick - The Bees

ausonny · 02-02-2003, 12:05 PM

If the other board becomes available again I'll provide a link to the beginning.

The Club

Youth Squad: inadequate
Investment in the Youth squad: 20 000 US$ / week

Goaltending Coaches: 3
Assistant Coaches: 6
Sport Psychologists: 1
Spokepersons: 5
Economists: 1
Physiotherapists: 5
Doctors: 1

The economist was added when I approached 200k in debt, but seems to still be pulling in more than he is costing me.

My youth squad made it up to inadequate this week. The youth pull however, was not inadequate.

The Coach

Will Wilson (7568258)
52 years, wretched form, healthy
A inadequate coach who prefers a strong defensive game
A controversial person who is balanced and honest.
Has passable experience and inadequate leadership abilities.

Nationality: USA
Assessed value: 0 US$
Wage: 500 US$/week
Owner: Bees
Warnings: 0

He was approximately my 5th or 6th change, and while I'm not happy with an inadequate coach, I wanted to spend my money somewhere else at first. He is a defensive coach, which I would prefer right now since I have two solid scorers.

Economy

Cash funds: -108 772 US$ (-156 120) US$
Sponsors: high on life
Supporter Club: 612 members
Supporters: high on life

The cash will look a lot better after the game tonight. We may have already outgrown the stadium. I didn't realize how well the team would do, and therefore how quickly the supporters would grow.

Those who were reading before might be wondering how we went from a little over 200k in debt to only 108k. We sold our best backup, Freddie Spain, and ouy best all around player, starting right winger Burl Maurer for a combined 130k after fees. Burl was 29, and so actually went for only 35k of that amount.

The Arena

The Bees are named for the Barnet Bees, and somehow it just seems wrong that the Bee Hive is twice the size of Underhill.

1/30/2003 (Friendly): Houston Hippopotami - Bees 0 - 9

We've only given up 3 goals in 7 games, whcih I attribute to the 200k i shelled out for my goalie and a defensive coach. The 37 goals scored comes from 2 solid scorers. All this and I still have almost no shot at catching Puro Chivas:

League Standings
Series: V.41 (8414)

Team Played Goals Points
1. Puro Chivas 7 23 - 4 19

6. Milwaukee Stormers 7 13 - 12 7
7. Harsh 7 5 - 20 5
8. Janus 7 2 - 29 0

When I took over the team I was in 7th place. 3 wins from 3 games puts me in third, seven points below the leader. I play him once, which would let me make it four, but where they will come from I do not know. I need some help with 7 games left.

Have fun dominating Mercury this week! I'm still feeling the team out, and haven't bought any real impact players, so your guys should tee off on us.

Players
I'll put the relevant attributes in bold.

Goalies

Ron Muller
221 000 US$, 22 years, poor form
Has disastrous experience and inadequate leadership abilities

Stamina: poor
Keeper: solid
Playmaking: wretched
Passing: disastrous
Winger: disastrous
Defending: disastrous
Scoring: poor
Set Pieces: weak

Grover Barrett
99 000 US$, 21 years, weak form
Has wretched experience and weak leadership abilities [Quick]

Stamina: poor
Keeper: inadequate
Playmaking: disastrous
Passing: wretched
Winger: disastrous
Defending: disastrous
Scoring: wretched
Set Pieces: inadequate

Ron was my biggest splash in the transfer market, and while I'll be feeling the effects for a long time, he was worth it.

Wing Backs

Mikey Siegel
31 000 US$, 27 years, passable form
Has poor experience and poor leadership abilities

Stamina: inadequate
Keeper: wretched
Playmaking: poor
Passing: poor
Winger: inadequate
Defending: inadequate
Scoring: weak
Set Pieces: poor

Mikey is my only Wing Back, although I do have other options in case of injury. I will switch up the side he plays on depending on the skill of the opponent.

Central Defenders

Robert Rodrigues
75 000 US$, 26 years, passable form
Has poor experience and weak leadership abilities

Stamina: inadequate
Keeper: wretched
Playmaking: wretched
Passing: passable
Winger: poor
Defending: passable
Scoring: weak
Set Pieces: solid

Ruben Sherwood
37 000 US$, 22 years, inadequate form
Has wretched experience and wretched leadership abilities

Stamina: inadequate
Keeper: wretched
Playmaking: wretched
Passing: wretched
Winger: poor
Defending:solid
Scoring: weak
Set Pieces: disastrous

Joshua Lutz
38 000 US$, 25 years, inadequate form
Has wretched experience and weak leadership abilities [Quick]

Stamina: weak
Keeper: wretched
Playmaking: weak
Passing: weak
Winger: weak
Defending: inadequate
Scoring: inadequate
Set Pieces: weak

Ruben and Robert are my best starters. The defense is the weakest part of my team, which is why I'm glad I bought Ron Muller and have a defensive coach. Joshua Lutz is my best sub at almost every position, more of a statement on my other subs than him.

Inner Midfield
Lance Seaman
71 000 US$, 23 years, passable form
Has wretched experience and inadequate leadership abilities

Stamina: inadequate
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: solid
Passing: poor
Winger: weak
Defending: weak
Scoring: weak
Set Pieces: inadequate

Antonio Peris
69 000 US$, 23 years, passable form
Has poor experience and disastrous leadership abilities

Stamina: excellent
Keeper: wretched
Playmaking: solid
Passing: weak
Winger: poor
Defending: poor
Scoring: wretched
Set Pieces: solid

Alvin Sheldon
59 000 US$, 26 years, passable form
Has weak experience and passable leadership abilities

Stamina: solid
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: passable
Passing: weak
Winger: weak
Defending: poor
Scoring: weak
Set Pieces: inadequate

Ryan Polk
10 000 US$, 34 years, inadequate form
Has inadequate experience and inadequate leadership abilities

Stamina: excellent
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: weak
Passing: solid
Winger: wretched
Defending: weak
Scoring: weak
Set Pieces: solid

Ryan is my best passer on the team, but it isn't enough to get him in the starting lineup. Alvin, Antonio and the Screamin' Seamen's favorite Lance start for me. Lance is my only player to advance from training. This group seems like it is a good group, but I'm not sure why it is as dominant as it is. We had 94% of the possession in our last game with Janus. Granted, they suck, but we have never lost the possession battle. Passable form and solid stamina or better may hold the clue.

Wingers
Desmond Horton
57 000 US$, 20 years, inadequate form
Has disastrous experience and disastrous leadership abilities [Unpredictable]

Stamina: inadequate
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: inadequate
Passing: inadequate
Winger: weak
Defending: inadequate
Scoring: wretched
Set Pieces: weak

Paul Moyer
58 000 US$, 23 years, passable form
Has wretched experience and weak leadership abilities [Head]

Stamina: inadequate
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: weak
Passing: passable
Winger: inadequate
Defending: wretched
Scoring: weak
Set Pieces: wretched

Robert Neal
4 000 US$, 23 years, passable form
Has wretched experience and weak leadership abilities

Stamina: weak
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: weak
Passing: wretched
Winger: wretched
Defending: weak
Scoring: poor
Set Pieces: poor

Desmond got promoted when Burl Maurer was sold early in the week. Burl was probably the best player on the team, but I had to make a move financially, and he was 29. Paul and Desmond are not really the quality I'm looking for, but for now they'll do. Robert Neal is the least bad of my remaining subs, so he gets the sub spot. The flipping of a coin was not used in this decision, no matter what the press says.

Forwards

Rich Ladd
62 000 US$, 22 years, inadequate form
Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities

Stamina: solid
Keeper: wretched
Playmaking: poor
Passing: weak
Winger: disastrous
Defending: wretched
Scoring: solid
Set Pieces: poor

Chad Gallegos
104 000 US$, 24 years, solid form
Has wretched experience and poor leadership abilities [Quick]

Stamina: passable
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: weak
Passing: poor
Winger: weak
Defending: weak
Scoring: solid
Set Pieces: inadequate

Korey Moffett
16 000 US$, 19 years, poor form
Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities

Stamina: poor
Keeper: wretched
Playmaking: inadequate
Passing: weak
Winger: poor
Defending: disastrous
Scoring: inadequate
Set Pieces: inadequate

This may be the strongest group on the team. I was given 2 solid scorers, and you can't complain about that. Korey is ok as a backup, I guess. He did get a hat trick against sterlingice's team. Chad Gallegos is currently injured, but should be back within a week. He will probably play this week.

THe Rest
Bert Fortner
1 000 US$, 19 years, passable form
Has disastrous experience and disastrous leadership abilities

Stamina: poor
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: wretched
Passing: disastrous
Winger: wretched
Defending: poor
Scoring: poor
Set Pieces: disastrous

Edgar Boyer
1 000 US$, 18 years, passable form
Has disastrous experience and passable leadership abilities

Stamina: weak
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: wretched
Passing: poor
Winger: poor
Defending: wretched
Scoring: disastrous
Set Pieces: wretched

Jason Mcneill
1 000 US$, 19 years, passable form
Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities

Stamina: weak
Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: poor
Passing: wretched
Winger: wretched
Defending: wretched
Scoring: poor
Set Pieces: wretched

These guys suck. Bad. If I weren't worried about injuries they would be gone.

Overall
Initially I thought I was given a very bad team, because I had only 1 player over 100k, and 2 over 50k in value. Results and the skyrocketing of a couple of players value have changed my mind. The increase is due to the form increase of most of the players. We are plus 17 in form changes without training form, plus 15 in stamina from one week of training in stamina, and plus 4 in experience. This team is probably good eniugh to win the league, if not this year, then next.

Good luck. If healthy I plan on getting some backups some playing time. Maybe even some of the scrubs. If they have to be on the team, I should try and make them better.

Bees - Janus 7 - 0

Date: 2/3/2003 at 01:00
Arena: Bee Hive
Crowd: 8141

8141 spectators arrived at Bee Hive, where weather conditions were pretty good for football. Bees had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. Lineup: Muller - Rodrigues, Sherwood, Siegel - Horton, Peris, Sheldon, Seaman, Moyer - Gallegos, Ladd.

Janus started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Crowe - Wilson, Maynard, Harris, Huang - Cromwell, Gilman, Grace, Aldrich - Gamble, Melton.

Bees made a bid to take the lead as a ball coming in from the right hand side left Lance Seaman completely alone with keeper Shane Crowe, who made a spectacular block. Janus´s Edgar Melton refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon in the 26:th minute. Bees took the lead in the 29:th minute of the game by 1 to 0, as Rich Ladd elegantly received a pass going deep, finishing off with a half-volley shot just below the bar. In the 31st minute of the match the visitors central line of defence had to look on as Lance Seaman dashed through, knocking home 2 - 0 for Bees. Bees put themselves up 3 - 0 when Chad Gallegos broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him. By now Bees were drawing the troops back in order to defend their lead. A bit later, a magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Bees´s Alvin Sheldon putting the lead up to 4 - 0. Halftime score was 4 - 0. Bees held the ball, with a clear 89 percent possession rate.

60 minutes into the game Bees were awarded a penalty that Antonio Peris turned into 5 - 0 without a problem. A bit later, a magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Bees´s Rich Ladd putting the lead up to 6 - 0. The referee showed Beess Mikey Siegel the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. In the 76:th minute of the match the visitors central line of defence had to look on as Mikey Siegel dashed through, knocking home 7 - 0 for Bees. Bees held the ball, with a clear 95 percent possession rate.

The most dominating Bees player was without a doubt Chad Gallegos. Desmond Horton was a disappointment, however. Janus´s best player was Connie Huang. Bud Wilson on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 7 - 0.

6. Harsh 8 8 - 22 8
7. Milwaukee Stormers 8 13 - 17 7
8. Buckeyes 8 2 - 36 0

Thanks go to Harsh for beating Puro Chivas on the road. I need 2 points plus beating them to pass them, and 4 plus beating Seawatch Surf. If they could draw their game that would be nice. Puro has dropped 5 points from their last 2 games, letting us have a glimmer of hope.

NEXT ROUND
RidersOfTheStorm - Bees
Janus - Seawatch Surf
Harsh - The Timaaaah's
Milwaukee Stormers - Puro Chivas

Puro and Seawatch should both win easily this week. I expect to win, and maybe Harsh could put a little distance between me and The Timaaaahs. Harsh is a new team, and apparently one to watch next year if I don't get promoted this year. If they can beat Seawatch in a couple weeks it will make my job easier.
