A very impressive debut from St James Seahawks. I'm virtually anonymous in the stats today. Based on my preview, I suppose all the red side games went as expected. Maybe Winsford will be slightly encouraged that their loss wasn't huge.

Oh dear, I guess this means I'm meant to do good this season. I hope it works out!

Thanks for doing this, was a nice read :)

I might have to steal your idea and do the same.

Well, last night I dreamt I signed an aging Tim Duncan as my backup big. Only 14k salary and still had 14 ID! I'll take one of those in reality pls.

great job again great thread....i think its time for a relegation and hopefully i end up in another league II...i cant imagine any of other leagues are so tough and one sided...even though this year blue does look a bit stronger.....

but indeed my players are older, so best to drop, and collect money and change squad and hopefully get promotion to another II.

Great previews, thanks for these.

Looking at the squad strengths I guess I need to put in a strong challenge this season, plus have as you say been going a long time in this division, my theory was that if kept refreshing my squad rather than making one big push eventually i would outlast some aging teams, but credit to Arab and Triximos in particular for keeping strong for a long time as well.

Will definitely have to do better than very lucky win against Triximos, got my tactics wrong and for some reason my coach dropped two players out of the rotation against instructions, leaving me with 6 man rotation.

Some kinda update, it's been quiet.

I'm still annoyed about the loss to Gwent earlier this seson. Bought the home advantage PR guy a few hours before the game but the auction got held up and wasn't processed until after. In a 4 point loss I think it would've been enough to make the difference...I'd join the group on 8-2 with Gwent only one game ahead and things look allaround closer / more interesting. *grumble*

Based on the cup we're officially the best division 2 currently, no other div2 has more than 4 teams left. *cool* Can I have the award because of my beating EBBL teams? :p

So...today I decided not to sell Weir. Or more accurately he had a bid of 600k on him (I started the auction at 500k) and I bid 800k...If he went for more then fine. He didn't, I get to keep him...cool. Happy to pay 5% of the sale for this.

Things I didn't know: the sale percentage is reset! Down to 35%...I'm definitely not selling for a while now. Also: game shape reduction. They really are treated like normal transfers...I'm still learning I guess :) It's ruined my fancy almost perfect game shape for all my best players this week though.

Looking around: Dayglo look like the former EBBL side that they are, and are cruising the blue side. They're about to hit the tough run of the top 5 in red, in a row though. Will be interesting to see how they do, and which of us looks best against them...

You're spending some money over there Arab ;) so much for any of us having an easy ride to the top 4.

I'm not too mad about losing to Gwent. He isn't managing enthusiasm well after CT'ing to force a few wins. I'm just a bit bugged that his game day tactics and defence were focussed in wrong places and it was such a close game. I'm starting off the season a bit better than last season, and I think I will get some easyish wins in the cross conference matches, with a hard match vs Dayglo.

Good luck for the coming matches guys, greetings from Spain, holiday time! :-)

hehehehe yea just a bit, my plan for season was to sell old players, even get relegated and try to get up in another league II....but then changed my mind and thought i stick around and give it a shot.... :) dont like giving up....so decided to spend a bit. :) its going to be interesting end of season and for sure this time someone from red side will go up...blue, unless big money is spend have no hope........

Hi im back! :D

haha just in time for the killing time...every year red side, top 5 so close...... :)
