Never mind guys, I'll take a loss for round 4 this week.

Well it doesn't look like others have been getting their challenges in either. Nobody's updated the thread title.

Sorry, I've had no net access.

So everyone has their challenges in and ready to go this week?

Challenged Mitch.

imno hasn't accepted and his internet access being inhibited means I've jumped in the friendly pool.

Sorry dude, just got it now :lol:

Getting over HT a bit atm. Probably lack of access and FIFA 11. And some upsetting results :P

Why is it that when everyone else is doing well, I'm getting shit results and not that interested and now that I'm getting the results and doing well, nobody gives a shit?

This. Dunno why. I barely remember to log on and set orders each week, let alone look at my players, etc. I haven't got round to challenging this week, but i haven't seen Torana in yonks.

:lol: I've been trying to balance studies,football, a new job, fifa 11 and a nagging gf, havent really had alot of time on my hands for 442 or hattrick besides on my phone lol, I'll put a bit more effort in to make challenges etc next round though.

Ditch the gf. Hattrick is more important :P

I hate playing against teams from europe in friendlies. It's too hard to figure out their skill level. I'm 4-1 down against a div. VI team from Poland.

Ok I'm good for 442 cup next week. Round 5 challenges?

Round 4 still hasn't been played.

Keeper popped to Magnificant. :)

Now reads:
Defending [Form=High]=11.98
Defending [Form=Average]=12.1
Defending [Form=Low]=12.13

You make a good point :-k

No pops this week, forgot to mention though, I splashed out on a new Titanic striker and a new titanic/solid midfielder both with Head specialty and 22/23 y.o respectively.

I've challenged Marconi and Celtic Raiders, my round 4 and 5 match ups. Whoever gets in first.

2nds need training this week.

Accepted. I think we just call this season quits, and I'll restart it all in a couple of weeks. We realy let it drift too long to try and get it back up again.

Won 2-1. Eddie Brush 84th min winner :D

So it's curtains for this season? If it is, then I'm heading overseas for next week.



That's still not good enough. :( Yet another 0-1 loss.

Bump. So I take it the cup is dead... Oh well.

I won 1-0 over my nearest rival. Very happy with that. Sell out crowd and I scored a record 181 hatstats and 51 stars this week too.

Looks like I could be avoiding playing play-offs for the first time in two years. Stoked.

It's always hard to get it back up again for you huh?

I see nothing has changed. Put me down for the cup when you get it organized. I pulled out last time cause I missed training from people to accepting chalenges. But I hope the new 3 strikes policy will help.

Just the one pop this week. formidable 17yo defender.

I can't believe i've never noticed this thread before.

ASC St George Town FTW

How long you been playing/what division?

I'm in my 2nd and a half season, and i'm mid-table in V.

I'm currently training PM, but i'm switching to Keeper training after i sell my batch of trainees.

There's a lot of money to be made in keeper training if you do it right. :-$

Do/have you train Keeper? If so, do you have any advice?

Keepers train faster than any other player, naturally this is because there are only two trainees you can have at a time.

I'd recommend training them until they pop, and then training them for set pieces or passing for a couple of weeks so that pops too because a keeper with Outstanding keeping and solid or better passing or SP will be worth 50% more on the open market than an outstanding keeper without those secondaries. Even defending makes them a more efficient keeper, but it's a much smaller percentage than SP and Passing.
