Dedede

So what have you gotta say for yourself kid?

A shady guy like you? Asking about me? I got nothing to report. How about you? How was your beak?

Vote: No Lynch I'm just getting warmed up...

I'll get in on this if it's not too late?

Shame I couldn't grab a point today to take survival down to the final game. I'm now destined for the lower league again Have been happy with how I've rotated my squad though and will hopefully get some decent skill increases and bounce back up after next season.

It was a great game! Managed to stop the soviet war machine and held on for the last few minutes. Let The Fiesta begin!

It's the eve of the big game and nerves are setting in while I'm mulling over tactics. I thought for sure we'd get turned over by Germany again but the boys must have figured them out After a shakey group stage we've grew into the tournament. The Mexican Wave rolls on!

Mexico are through! Ze Germans doing us a favour

Looks there's home and away legs... I'll see you again at the Azteca for a Mexican standoff!

I've got the easier run in but now the promotion spots are safe we can put our feet up I need to field a lot of youth to get DV up. I've been struggling rotating a big squad this season and like an idiot i've only just started pre-selecting my subs I think an end of season cull is on the cards...

Doing my own subs has paid off nicely with a 5-0 win. The assistant coach has been given his marching orders ;p

I've been wondering, do people set their own substations before games? I've always let the assistant cover it but I'm finding that it's not working out. My last game at 2-2 my best player was subbed for a youth. The game before at 0-0 my best midfielders were taken off as well

I think you went easy on me bob. Playing four defenders... looks like you've gone soft since our days battling it out in the lower league.

I checked the time log and Hydra sent the challenge at 11:41 on friday (game day). I was at work so didn't see it and i Accepted Bob's challenge as i assumed Hydra's had been deemed too late.

No challenge yet from Hydra...

I'm up for the cup

Tough home loss today has all but put us out of the running. Bad tactic choices and a weak midfield I think were to blame for this season's performances. Time to focus on DV and saving a few quid

Really looking forward to it. I feel like my team is coming tigether quite well and I'm getting to grips with balancing development and results. Although league position wasn't too important, I'd set myself a goal to at least not get relegated while giving my youth plenty of game time. Bearing that in mind, I enjoyed my last match against MOT as the winner would 'escape relegation'. I think additional end of season awards is a great idea to get people more involved.

I'm in for the cup When will we have the change report thing?

Tough loss against Haden today has seen me slip into the relegation places I've got a forward who's not pulling his weight with 6 dev even though he's got 409 mins under his belt this season. He's 22-7 so has potential relative to my squad but if he doesn't get a skill increase I think I'll replace him with some young blood. The rest of devs are ok, between 9-16 with only a couple of older players at the lower who I only expect to break even with. I'll take 14 for the lottery Peeps.

Good win against bob today. I know it's early but for those scraping by in the middle league these games are 6 pointers. Shame I couldn't rescue a point against Cubic last week. Hope that doesn't come back to haunt me later.

1-2 with 7 chances

I don't know whether he's mafia for sure, didn't get alignment info. Haven't got anything new, didn't get round to sending a PM last night phase.

Sorry everyone for not being about. Things have been a bit hectic for me, I'm in the middle of sorting out a house and haven't really been paying any attention to the games. I am Mr Lazy. Vote: No Lynch
